New #LongCovid clinical trial launched!!
Really excited about this for a bunch of reasons:
a) it's fully remote (you can do it at home!)
b) it's large (1000 participants!)
c) it's accessible to the most severe (even those who can't verbally speak)

Nature words in books—like blossom, moss, bud—declined by 60% since 1800. Language reflects what people notice and value. My latest research in the journal Earth: mdpi.com/2673-4834/6/3/82

Shame on the @DalhousieU Board for this blatant show of disrespect. AASUA stands with Dal Faculty who deserve a fair deal, and an Employer willing to reach that deal at the bargaining table. #KeepDalStrong #Solidarity
Imagine prepping your fall courses, and your employer says: “We might lock you out instead.” @DalhousieU Board is sabotaging the fall semester and the future of students. We’re ready to teach. They’re ready to lock us out! Link to media release in comments. #KeepDalStrong

Permission to Feel opened the door.
Dealing with Feeling helps you move through it—with intention.
If my work has meant something to you,
pre-ordering this next book helps more than you know.

This is a terrific article by @jenszalai about the use and misuse of arguments against empathy. (And I’m not just saying this because it ends with a quote by me.)

I am in Edmonton. 73rd Street and 112th avenue. Lime scooter has three scooters parked at the bus stop which means anybody trying to get on the bus with a mobility scooter or a wheelchair doesn't have room to get on the bus and doesn't have room to get off the bus either.

If emotions are steering the wheel anyway…
Wouldn’t you want to know where they’re taking you?
There’s something about the word regulation that makes people flinch—
like the emotion police are here to tell you what you’re allowed to feel.
But it’s not about restriction.
It’s about intention.
🧠 Being conscious about your emotional life.
🎯 Using emotions to get the outcomes you actually want.
❤️ Feeling more fulfilled—not by suppressing what you feel,
but by learning how to respond to it with wisdom.
Dealing with Feeling is available now for preorder.
25% off @BNBuzz with code PREORDER25.

New data shows: The more women dominate a health-care occupation in Alberta, the less it pays. For every extra percent of females in the profession, the median hourly wage goes down by $3.60. Learn more at our webinar on Alberta’s health-care crisis.
