A lovely friend and amazing community advocate convinced me to let her create a GoFundMe so I can pay my kids' dental bills and buy myself a rollator to get around and just...you know, not starve to death. Please share if you're so inclined. gofund.me/e7097948

@BlizzardCS @aetheraerie Myself and my friend have not been able to log in to Cata Classic since Jan 21. We get stuck at “retrieving realm list” and then eventually time out.

@aetheraerie The issue disconnecting people was resolved. Support is not able to assist with recovering any loot that you may have been unable to receive while it was happening. Sorry. ~V

This is about an epic 20-year saga. And several human odysseys. And the resilience of hope. And the power of music. It's about life itself. All of which, I think, are infinite.

This is what happens when your home schooling curriculum got its biology textbook from Temu.

@ironyandash This is the same idiot who said Long Covid was psychosocial and not physiological even though all evidence from science has shown viral persistence is the main cause.

Wrong about the science? The science they get from peer reviewed studies by scientists? Do you have different peer reviewed articles from reputable scientists that state covid isn't a severe pathogen? Because we really do want to be wrong

This has been an incredibly rough month. Bills and having a child with special medical and dietary needs have obliterated my money and my overdraft with 10 days to survive on zero available funds. #GivingTuesday2024

@morris_canada The part I find difficult is the Theatre will tell people they can’t park at Sobeys or St. Bon’s but never advises them to be respectful of area residents. Tried getting them to page the owner before the show started and they refused.

Holy Heart needs to stop holding events until they have parking figured out. Second night in a row someone’s blocking the driveway at my BF’s house and Heart won’t do a damn thing. It’s not right.

@TouchKeepi14986 @winsor_leanne Not blaming the school - meant the theatre, should’ve worded better. Called city parking enforcement and they only had 3 officers on so no one could come.

And people need to stop being such entitled, selfish, asshats. Yeah, like thanks dude, love hobbling up the street with my cane and groceries in the rain cause I can’t access the driveway and closest parking is a block away.

As a fit & healthy 36yo I worked 17hr days for weeks at a time leading responses to Covid outbreaks as a senior Dr. Now severely disabled by long covid at 40, according to my Government I’m “written off”. With 1.3million+ of us why do we not have dedicated research funding&care?
Lucy Webster@Lucy_Webster_

Beyond the pale for @UKLabour to describe out of work disabled people as "written off" in the same week MPs vote on assisted dying Who signed off on this language @stephenctimms?

@sm88102725 @DrSarteschi I've done census work. If a person refuses you are supposed to tell them that participation is mandatory but you can't bleeding force them. I'm sure before they started recording she had already gone through her spiel. She'll mark them as refused and they'll get a letter.

@DrSarteschi Apparently Susan doesn't realize the surveys for statistics canada are required by law. These people have to participate under canadian law.

@DrSarteschi They went from complaining about the gvmt and that's a common refrain (deservedly often) so she absolutely has heard that part before. But you could see her switch from sympathy to be polite but get the eff away as soon as they started talking decrees.

Grief is funny sometimes. You think you have it together then you’re in your car at your office parking lot and hear Smash Mouth’s All Star and fall apart. Jake loved that song. Today is going to be a day. Team Jake Forever

I’ve been avoiding even talking about it because I don’t want to jinx myself and cancel again but my surgery is in two weeks, I booked my flight today and I literally cannot think about anything else right now. I THOUGHT after a few weeks it would improve. It’s not improving. 🆘

Feel like I’m just being an asshole now but I desperately need new winter tires and with all the kids’ appointments and my own I need my car. Being poor really sucks. Last time I was able to work my way out of it with multiple jobs. Now I can’t.

Anyone happen to know who this guy, he drives a Jeep and helped out Dara when she certainly needed it. There are times when we could all use a handup, ty to Mr. Carpenter Jeep guy, it's about time she got a break! #nltraffic #KindnessMatters
Dara Barrett@DaraMBarrett

I was so stressed out I didn’t get his name, but if you know a guy in St. John’s/Mt Pearl who drives a jeep and is a union carpenter he is probably the guy who not only pointed out my flat tire to me this afternoon but also repaired and pumped it in the rain.
