Welcome new followers. Come for the hot takes on covid stigma, stay for the drugs policy, social justice, and policing tweets infused with just the right amount of cursing.
Just remember, the Spansih Flu was only called that because Spain's media was able to report about conditions while the rest of the world's media held their tongue due to censorship around WW1. Let's not shit on South Africa for having genetic sequencing and being transparent.

If you sit at a table with 10 nazis, there’s 11 nazis at the table, and this place has way more than 10 nazis on it. I can’t be part of something that makes money from platforming Nazis and reinstates bigots. See you at the big blue sky or maybe somewhere else. Adios twitter.

A lot of Jews are sacred because we’re wondering how many people think like this but just haven’t decided to be open about it. How many of our friends think like this? How many of our neighbors? How many in our communities? You can call it paranoia. I’d call it experience.
“Hitler knew how to deal with these people.” Listen to this pro-Palestinian protestor in London. Is he just an anti-Zionist, not an anti-Semite?

Our latest by @isjinpan, Stability of Aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 on Masks and Transfer to Skin, suggests fomite transmission by masks contaminated with aerosolized virus isn't a thing, although it could still be possible with large droplets. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Appreciate the opportunity yesterday to speak at @Cannabis_Canada Grass on the Hill event alongside MP @PatrickBWeiler. Knowing that sound cannabis policy is being handled by leaders like him is such a great feeling. 20 years ago I never would have imagined we’d see this.
Replying to @PatrickBWeiler
As Co-Chair of the Cannabis Caucus, it was a pleasure to mark this occasion, rising in the House to celebrate this anniversary, speaking on a panel on the future of cannabis in Canada, and meeting with leaders in the cannabis industry 💚 (2/2)

Obviously this is a setback for @TobaGrown and the people of MB. That said, @JackLloydLawyer and I are working on the appeal now. But judicial solutions to bad laws are hard to come by. This awful conservative-created prohibition should be lifted by the new @mbndp government.
