A postdoctoral scholar at UCalgary working on bison management in northern Canada. I am likely drinking a cup of tea while you read these sentences.
The beginning of the history section in a document about travelling to Costa Rica. 'Apparently' there wasn't much there before Europeans began settling it... Not surprising that many people don't think about Indigenous history/issues after being given this type of stuff...
Things I, a white, straight, christian lady, have learned from the “freedom” convoy in Ottawa this week: A Thread...
Thanks to social media this is one of the most famous battlefield relics from Napoleonic era. It captures the moment of a man's death. It is not a joke or a Monty Python sketch about a scratch. It might not seem so funny if we knew more about the man and his death. 1/10
Some context for Alberta's constantly climbing COVID death count. So far this year, 1,720 dead from the virus. Last year, it was the province's #6 killer claiming 1,084 lives. If trends hold, COVID is on track to be the #2 or #1 cause of death for 2021. #ableg #abpoli
So, we’ve reached 34 deaths per day from COVID. It’s a shocking number that really gets swamped over by all the other numbers. I’m going to describe the usual dying process in the ICU from this disease. I’m wearing my clinical hat, be warned.
Absolutely brilliant work by @SethMacFarlane and the Family Guy team. If people still don’t know how vaccines work after this, then I really don’t know what to tell you.
I am continuously amazed by the restraint of #AbLeg reporters to limit themselves to two questions and not call out answers that do not address the original question or that contain factually incorrect information... #abpoli
Why are we still asking "why" when someone says they aren't drinking?
Interesting political choice to pay the 20-30% unvaccinated, rather than encourage vaccination by rewarding all Albertans who do the right thing (including the 70-80% who already have) with a vaccine passport giving them access to restaurants, bars, events.
The Canadian university president group chat must be wild right now.
Potential benefit of the pandemic: Going to a Tims after 5 exhausting buggy (but good) days in the backcountry and being able to say the person behind me in line is social distancing rather than keeping their distance...
Imagine if BC put out all their forest fires except 5, then proceed to close their fire reporting line, sell all their water bombers, tell their firefighters they are overpaid and cut their pay by 3%, then plan to monitor future fires by measuring the smoke in the air.🤷♂️
Letter to @ucalgary President: I understand that the university is not requiring students, staff or faculty to be vaccinated. This puts all students, staff, and faculty at risk, including those who are vaccinated. 1/6
Sorry for the aborted launch!!! I’m a bad twitterer. Enjoy this small step for man!
I hate when From Software’s games are cited in arguments against making games accessible or even easier. I think using Souls, Bloodborne, or Sekiro to that end is insulting to the games and the people that made them and just shows a lack of understand of what makes them special.
