If a politician wants to get my vote, I want to see them promise plans that are within their power. It will take a huge amount of public and political buy in for projects like building out the electrical grid for green energy projects or a universal basic income. #canpli @ndp.ca @avilewis.ca

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a heteromultivalent nanogel capable of killing some of the MOST dangerous bacteria known to medicine- with OVER 99.9% effectiveness against P. aeruginosa. It also showed STRONG antibacterial effects against other major threats, including E. coli and MRSA.

Free energy! Kilowatts! From harnessing the energy of neutrinos!! The creators say they overcame the "engineering problem" of the idea being out to f*cking lunch.

The mayor of Twillingate is Debra Gordon, Wayne Bruce is a lawyer in St. John's and we have a man named Rahul Goel trying to launch rockets from St. Lawrence. Are we turning into Gotham?

It would be nice to be able to cut a Christmas tree in the moose clearance zones off the highway. There are some beautiful trees there that will be shredded in a few years.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

If this proposal becomes reality, international conferences in the US will become a thing of the past.
NEW: Five years of social media history is only a fraction of what the US Government will shortly demand of overseas visitors.
The full requirements will end tourism in the United States.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders.
Aluminum is an ADJUVANT.
It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine.
That’s it.

Some of the biggest attention given to both soccer and rugby in Canada comes from our national women’s teams, which in both sports are much more successful than the men.
I watched the Women’s Rugby World Cup recently with some people, where Canada placed 2nd to England!

The dark advertising patterns in the YouTube app is infuriating. It isn't enough to insert ads, but they insert ads just as you're about to tap, scroll or in the middle of reading something. It's so awful it makes me less likely to pay for YouTube Premium, not more.

Men aren't more lonely than women but the loneliness epidemic is real. Millions are in isolation, it's capitalist individualism, & disability is isolating. Lots of folks are really alone. But it's not gendered, that framing is patriarchy, babying men like their unhappiness is everyone else's burden.
According to Pew Research and a few other stats, the loneliness epidemic isn’t disproportionately affecting men over other genders.
I have a feeling that men have been the squeaky wheel over the last few years.
If anything, we have a loneliness epidemic because more people are (barely) surviving.

Here are my thoughts on snowfall and rainfall amounts for Newfoundland for Wednesday.
Snow changing to rain, risk of ice pellets in the east.
Snowfall elsewhere.
Wind gusts 60-100 km/h, highest on the coast, which will result in blowing snow/reduced visibility.

The idea that collecting fares costs so much money that you’re better off making transit free is really appealing but in most cases it’s not plausible. It’s wishful thinking.
The closest exceptions you’ll find are lightly-used systems where fare revenue covers a small percentage of costs.
