I’m out. “Twitter” - or ‘X’ or whatever it is now - is bad for my mental health, and bad for the world’s health. Godspeed everyone.

@ABHank76467601 @CBCNews Well we’ll just have to agree to disagree.

@GordRand @CBCNews There is no climate crisis; conditions are not any worse than any other years. If humans wouldn’t be starting them it wouldn’t be an issue; we would have a normal amount of fires like every other year and they wouldn’t be worse because of ‘dry’ conditions.

All this news about record-breaking forest fires in Alberta but as yet no mention of the climate crisis from @CBCNews

@ABHank76467601 @CBCNews I didn't say climate change set the fire. The climate crisis exacerbates the conditions for the fire. It can't be a coincidence that the fires get worse in parallel lines with what the IPCC has been saying for decades. It's irresponsible of our news not to address it.

@GordRand @CBCNews Alberta has had 421 fires this year. 208 are still under investigation. 213 that have a suspected cause. 15 are from lightning; the other 198 are human caused. Most fires are not from climate change. Don’t forget people have already been arrested for arson.

Yay @envirodefence ! No joke: it's not because you drive a gas car - it's because of the oil companies.

Everyone should know by now that @Pathways2050 are liars.

@Olivebasil3 Well, we’ll have to agree to disagree.

I am boycottting these union busting brands until they instruct their ad agencies to bargain fairly with ACTRA performers who have been locked out for nearly a year. nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZxE8…
