Schnoodle mom, artist, chronically awesome, potty-mouthed optimist who wants nothing more than a rainy day and a cup of coffee. Zooming around YEG on my Azub recumbent and dreaming of days with more spoons. Still masking. 125,600 minutes.

Much respect to @ricksteves.bsky.social rewatching this explanationof fascism in the context of how it starts, how it continues, how it ends and is prevented from returning. "We are partipants, we are all responsible. "

In any event “cut spending” is a great euphemism for “grind poor people to dust and transfer even more wealth to the 1%”. A+ nonsense phrase that obscures the tremendous scope of human suffering while painting brutal class war as daddy simply tightening the family’s Disney world budget

There’s a lot of talk about the ER system in Canada right now. Wait times, triage, alternatives to being seen etc.

As someone who’s spent most of her life in and out of ERs - many times with life threatening conditions secondary to complex chronic illness - a few tips. /1 🧵

This is what happens when we refuse to mitigate COVID.

Patients deserve better. They shouldn’t leave a healthcare facility sicker than when they went in.

We all should demand mandatory respirators in healthcare and clean air standards in ALL facilities.

If at all possible - take someone with you. Have an advocate.

This serves a practical purpose like having someone to watch your stuff while you go to the bathroom - but they can also run and get help if you need it and advocate for the care you require. /10

How to be an Effective Advocate for a Disabled Patient
Disabled patients are rightfully terrified of being hospitalized. We are stripped of our agency and control in a hospital environment. Having an effective advocate can vastly improve the experience.

And if you're just enjoying #ArtAdventCalendar please show your support for the artists by sharing their work and following them. I promise that having a whole lot of artists in your feed year round makes for an objectively better social media experience.

New Video: @georgemonbiot.bsky.social describes the treatment of #MECFS as "The Greatest Medical Scandal of the 21st century". The video explores the impact of ineffective & harmful treatments & how they were defended by the scientific & media establishment.

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.
