All within same time period: Disabled people left behind & singled out to be left to die if necessary during pandemic; federal govt massively expanded MAiD targeting disabled people; over 600 people in BC were left to die in the heat & it barely registered a blip in society...

Are any graduate students (or soon to be graduate students) looking to make a big impact in Autism research? Do a study on Autistic Empathy. You will shatter a long-standing and deeply harmful stereotype. Most Autistic people I know skew towards hyper empathy and nobody knows.

I don't know where to start, except to say that Dr. Lysyshyn's minimization of the dangers of COVID to young kids, as well as his belief that masks harm kids and are causing psychological and substance abuse problems, are simply wrong. Here's the segment Dr. Black referenced.

Distressing to see old information relying on low-qualitied studies being described by physicians at a UBC event. Here is the evidence we have from higher quality, longitudinal studies, some in canada: /1

By failing to discuss #LongCovid, public health officials & politicians are making it nearly impossible for the average person to properly calculate the risks/rewards of COVID infections & interventions.

Been working on a manuscript with our Lancet Commission on vaccinating to prevent longCovid. I feel as though longCovid is still relegated to some dark corner of the public discourse. My opinion: we should do the opposite, provide an honest assessment of long Covid disabilities

so THIS is what I'm afraid of; I'm okay w dying, truly. But I don't want to live in a fog, hating every single day of the rest of my life. #LongCovidIsReal

This sweet little boy has asthma and other medical issues. Your job is to keep us safe during a pandemic but instead, you’ve put politics ahead of people. I hope you look at this little boy suffering the ravages of COVID and realize this could’ve been prevented. #onpoli #MaskUp

Remember when they passed the #StrawBan and promised that there would always be accessible plastic versions if needed? @bethanylindsay just brought me a frappuccino and said when she asked for one at @StarbucksCanada she was told they don't have them anymore. @CityofVancouver

ALERT: Monday is the first Senate vote on Biden judicial nominee and @Chevron lawyer Jennifer Rearden. Rearden is hiding invoices for work to illegally jail me and to defend Chevron's toxic dumping in the Amazon. Senate: do NOT put a Chevron human rights violator on the bench.

Dear @adriandix As Minister of Health you are, in every way that anyone can think of, responsible for this pandemic's trajectory through this province. To say that BC has done well, when testing has been limited, to say vaccine takeup is good when so few children are fully

So you want to offer advice/assistance to a disabled and/or poor person. A thread. 1. Number one is don't offer unsolicited advice on here. Just DON'T do it. But let's say the person is a friend of yours, you have that kind of relationship and this isn't a reply to a tweet.

When I started writing for newspapers & mags back when (it was about 28 years ago, jezzzus I'm old) I got a buck a word or about $800 per piece I wrote. People, if they are even paid, make pennies now. It is simply ridiculous.
