I'm mostly here to listen. I occasionally post but will often reskeet as most things I would say are better articulated by others

I've been doing media interviews for nearly 20 years. I have an audiobook, have recorded countless PSAs, done voiceover work; I even host a weekly podcast.

There are thousands and thousands of hours of my voice online and as a result, had to warn my elders what to do if they got a "call from me."

Hopefully we can all now acknowledge the utter inadequacy of the "internationalism vs isolationism" paradigm, wherein Trump was cast as a man "wary of foreign entanglements". What we're dealing with here is a very American form of blood-and-soil imperialism.

Sovereignty for Me, None for Thee
Donald Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy reveals a radical blood-and-soil conception of national strategy based on maintaining white patriarchal Christian domination at home and abroad.

The internet is fast becoming so choked with this, it'll be unusable. We'll all be boats chugging blindly through the gloom and the muck, finding nothing, barely each other, uncertain what's true or even real anymore.

there is a very good book about transatlantic exchange of fascist, eugenicist and racist ideas in the early 20th century and how those ideas shaped the nazi government in its early years. this has been transformed in popular understanding to "the nazis copied jim crow"
If you’ve heard the “the Nazis got their ideas from the US segregationists” I beg you to please stop. This is both false and it minimizes historical European antisemitism in a misguided attempt to emphasize the nature of US anti-Black racism.

It’s horrific without comparison to Nazism.
May I politely encourage you to reconsider this framing. It is inaccurately stated and suggests consistent and strong linkages that do not exist.

The Nazis did not “get their ideas” from confederate laws. Antisemitism and anti-Jewish laws existed in Europe long before the Confederacy…

Anti-vaxxers do not care how their own decisions affect others even if it means death.
More than 250 people who were exposed to measles, including dozens of unvaccinated school-aged children, are quarantining in South Carolina as the state wrestles to contain an outbreak that has sickened more than 110 people.
Hundreds Quarantined in South Carolina as Measles Outbreak Shows No Sign of Slowing
The outbreak shows no signs of slowing, likely because of the affected area’s “lower-than-hoped-for vaccination coverage,” a state health official said.

Thanks to your amazing generosity this year, we were once again able to present @childsplaycharity.bsky.social with an astoundingly large amount on a comically larger than average check.

In all seriousness, this cannot happen with your continued support. We love you all.

This is BARELY an exaggeration.

It is actually and literally routine for the packages to have obvious typos.

Having said that, I am of course fascinated by gas station boner pills and why people take them.

BC breaks 400 measles cases today OR mystery lull until they hope no one is looking late Dec?

I want $300k to do my job this badly, too.

"..counts only capture a subset of actual cases as some people may not be presenting for diagnosis & health care." Recent counts inaccurate due to delays 🤷‍♀️

Well, BC has indeed topped 400 measles cases. 9 added, for a new total of 408.

Check back in next post for @tjradcliffe.bsky.social chart showing the strange growth pattern here.

Again, v odd it's contained in North, given low vax rates across province. Will Jan show post-Xmas-Mingle spread? 🤷‍♀️

Everyone is talking about how bad the flu is.

Media & healthcare facilities are pleading with people to get their flu shot.

To stay home when sick.

To wash their hands.

Very few are recommending masks. When we had mask mandates we eliminated an entire flu strain.

Mask up!

It wasn’t the only time it’s happened. When you encourage this behaviour - patients struggle to get the care they need because a quicker & cheaper option is available.

If you find this hard to believe…I ecourage you to read this article explaining how doctors have a duty to bring up assisted death:
Canadian doctors encouraged to bring up medically assisted death before their patients do
Guidance from Canada’s providers of medically assisted death states that doctors have a professional obligation to bring up MAID. Read more

and honestly, while I think we need more progressive economic policy, i think that's better served by building the NDP up instead of trying to tail the liberals
