I have a lot to say about this, I’ll try my hardest without cussing. Danielle Smith’s plan is to hand hospitals over to Covenant Health. Who’s on that board of directors? Shandro of course. This needs to be investigated. Convenant Health forbids a list of services including but not limited to: emergency contraceptives, abortion, and sterilization. The government of “freedom” is literally going to take away our access to care. They have attacked and defunded AHS, decimated public HC and it was all leading up to this. Enough is enough!! #ethics #abpoli #canpoli #alberta #ableg #ahs #WomensRights @nenshi @albertaNDP
Next phase of restructuring includes removing Alberta Health Services (AHS) as the operator of some hospitals and turning facilities over to other administrators like Catholic health care provider Covenant Health. airdriecityview.com/local-ne…

If Albertans figure out that Notley's NDP is not a Marxist Leninist marching band- but rather today's version of the Lougheed PCs, Danielle Smith's dumb bunch at the UCP becomes a Truck Stop Omelet - Fried & Devoured. calgaryherald.com/opinion/co…

If you disagree with scientists about science, it’s not really a disagreement. You’re actually just incorrect. Science is not truth, it’s the process of finding the truth. When science evolves, it didn’t lie to you, it learned more.

So now we know *how* #wombats poop cubes, but the big question is *why*. #Wombat poo is very visible where they live, but visibility isn't the key: it's smell👃🏻. Wombats often pop poops in prominent places, lifted up off the ground. This helps the scent spread. Cubes don't roll.

The answer to the abortion debate should never have been whether a fetus is a person, but that a woman is.

I remember being told by my University Comp Sci professor that Moore's law was due to expire any day now, that was in 1995. I've heard the same prediction several times since then, but here we are.
Moore's Law (2022 update) 🖥️ These two graphs illustrate the exponential growth in chip transistor counts, from 1971 to the present day, with a future projection to 2100. We have updated them to include data from 2019 to 2022. ▶️ Read more: futuretimeline.net/data-tren… #Singularity

Omicron is not a Pokemon-style "final evolution" of SARS-CoV-2. It's still mutating rapidly, including in the spike protein, and with the amount of replication it is doing out there right now, we can expect new variants. Hoping is not a strategy. Giving up is not a plan.
