Be nice to nurses, there will be a very real shortage soon. We are quitting in droves.
It’s hard to care for humans that have shown so little care for us
When conservative men talk about restoring social order, they mean by force. Physical and legal force over BIPOC, LGBTQ2, and women. That's what they are talking about. Second class citizenship for everyone but them.
Did you know that many first responders suffer from some level of PTSD? Talking about it, being compassionate and seeking help can make a big difference in their mental health #PTSDawareness#firstresponders#YYC
This is a great summarization the double standards and vitriolic hate that Harry & Meghan were subjected to. If you don’t follow the royals, this is a brief but excellent summary of what he talks about in his book and why he left.
Bell has a long and sordid history with mistreating, abusing and ending employment when workers are dealing with mental health issues. They are trying to lead a conversation when their company does the barest minimum to create an inclusive & safe working environment is asinine.
Just a reminder that Bell Let’s Talk, while on the surface appears to be a great campaign, this company has and is exploiting mental health struggles of every day people, while using it as a means to garner profits via appearing to care about consumers.
Despite what @Alberta_UCP thinks, adequately staffed nursing units unequivocally prevent death.
One @TheLancet study found:
"An increase in a nurses' workload by 1 patient increased the likelihood of an inpatient dying within 30 days of admission by 7%"

I have worked in school health/school nursing for 21 years. This year we are dealing with COVID, Flu, RSV, Mpox & trying to avoid a Measles outbreak. Prior to this my biggest adventure year was 23 cases of whooping cough in an elementary school. #covidchangesthings#NurseTwitter
If your child is sick keep them home! Just received a message that a teacher is covid positive and is now in hospital and caught covid from a Covid positive student who vomited all over her. We all have to do our part to keep others safe. #CovidIsNotOver
The one criterion for being autistic is *being* autistic. Whether you have a medical diagnosis or have self-diagnosed, if you’re autistic, you’re autistic. A medical diagnosis confirms you’re autistic, but does not *make* you autistic. It’s autism validation, not autism creation.
I have an actual stalker. I want this on here because I am actually scared. Do not take this post lightly. This is serious. His obsession and the trauma of this is making me not be able to sleep.
After an incident of community violence, children (and adults) need to be reminded they are safe and loved. By limiting media exposure & making space for big feelings, caregivers can create a safe space. 💛

I done told y'all it's not only unrealistic but also very unfair to expect people of color, especially Black and Indigenous people, to baby you while we navigate our own fucking trauma. I'm tired of y'all having that expectation
Listen I understand that the US education system has sanitized tf out of our history and a lot of people are unaware of some of the atrocities committed in this country but no I'm not gonna fuckin hand hold and coddle white people who are just now learning the actual history.
“Stay in your lane.”
The irony of a British person saying that. I imagine large swaths of the world “conquered” by the UK wish your nation had taken your advice.
You have biases about autism & autistic people, learned from this ableist society that holds parents of autistics up as tragic martyr figures while dehumanizing their children.
We're *all* raised with this. The sooner you acknowledge it, the less harm you'll unknowingly cause.
I find it amusing how lacking in knowledge some Brits are about their own countries history or that say The Commonwealth exists 😂
So yes ‘sweetie’ I do actually get an opinion 💋#AbolishTheMonarchy
Sweetie, you’re Canadian, you have no say in what we do in the UK.. Kindly f**k off and #stayinyourlane#HarryAndMeghanAreFinished#HarryisaBackstabbingLiar#MeghanMarkleYACHTGIRL
If me wanting to protect myself and my family from a vascular pathogen that will wreck your immune system bothers you that much, maybe I dunno, instead of screenshotting my tweets, try collecting stamps 🤷🏻♀️
I swear to shitting Christ I’m the luckiest mom in the world.
My kiddos are happy, healthy and brilliant.
If I believed in God, I would thank her for them.
When Meghan was being terribly vilified by the UK tabloids to the point of su*c*de, 72 women Members of Parliament sent an open letter to cease the press abuse. What did Will, Kate, Charles and Camilla do? They let their teams to leak more slanderous stories to the press. #Spare
It's clear you have no clue how banks work. Banks don't care how you vote. They do care if your payments are on time, & if you have income to support those payments. Same with credit unions.
I suspect he has missed payments & has no provable income. A mortgage is not a right.
I've kept pretty quiet about Alberta Twitter drama, but I can't help noticing the racialized twitter troll who the Mean Girls wanted me to DeBaTe (@.afroblvk) is now going after @.TaylorMcNallie, an actual Black activist that does more than simply rage on the birb app
News flash:
The royal family has done NOTHING to earn the money they have. It’s ALL from commonwealth countries or the British people themselves.
These people are so brainwashed to boot lick the rich colonizers
#AbolishTheMonarchy
It's irrelevant to whether there is a cost of living crisis.
You want the Monarchy to stay out of politics.
It does.
Then you criticise it for spending IT'S OWN MONEY at a politically inconvenient time?
Give your head a wobble.
