I have posted the entire 60 minutes segment that was shelved by CBS and Trump croney Bari Weiss a day before it was scheduled to air. You can find it on my patreon, free to all, as I don't trust Meta or TikTok to not censor it. Address in the image.

Today all the stress I've been carrying (financial, holiday, family, seasonal) reached a point I just needed to take a nice cleansing mini-cry. That was my #selfcare today: a little release. And chatting with My Canadian.

Is System of a Down really still Nu Metal at 31?

When I was a kid in the 80s, songs from the 50s and 60s were Classic or Oldies...

Disabled people do not owe you their medical history.

They do not owe you their diagnosis.

They do not owe you an explanation.

Benefits are exceedingly hard to get and the process is punishing & dehumanizing.

No one is doing it for fun.

Almost everyone I know is sick right now.

They’ve got a “bad flu” or a “nasty stomach bug”.

Almost no one will utter the word Covid.

It’s not too late to start wearing a mask.

It’s a great way to practice community care while keeping yourself healthy.

Ideally an N95 or better!

We told you it wouldn’t stop with immigrants.

ICE has shot a US citizen.

They’ve detained over 170 citizens.

What do you think will happen to those on the list?

It’s still not too late to start wearing a mask.

It can be scary feeling like the lone masker, but it’s worth it.

You will be healthier. You will be keeping your community healthy. You may even encourage someone else to mask.

Masking is community care.

If you can’t afford a respirator:
