But but but .... I thought there were no Canadians available to work? You mean Tim's has been hiring TPWs when there WERE locals to hire all along?

@StewartGreen81 @ctvottawa @ottawacity The city's economy relies on public service jobs. Its in the city's best interest to make sure the largest employer has the public infrastructure it needs to conduct business here.

@meanolkissyface @ctvottawa @ottawacity Correction, federal government is the largest employer, not DND. When did parking become a “right” of employment? Do you actually think if some folks can’t park at work the City’s economy will collapse? Please.

City of Ottawa, DND explore Carling Campus parking solutions ctvnews.ca/ottawa/video/2…

@StewartGreen81 @ctvottawa @ottawacity That campus of DND alone has more employees than most of Ottawa's other largest employe. Parking isn't a right, but there is no other reasonable way to get there. The location is fairly remote and transit is limited. Transit also doesn't work for everyone's circumstances.

@StewartGreen81 @ctvottawa @ottawacity Privilege? DND is one of the city's largest employers. Almost 10k TAXPAYERS work there and need to get to work. Like it or not, public service jobs hold up the city's economy. Making sure people can get to work is the city's job.

@ctvottawa Why is @ottawacity getting involved to solve an issue of privilege for an employer? Not really their responsibility! #ottnews

We're in a weird era where a guy gets publicly shamed for running his sprinklers on a Tuesday, while a data center the size of a Costco quietly drains a reservoir so AI can generate a picture of your cat as a medieval knight. And the data center gets a tax incentive for it.

The Epstein case is so bad the government gave you a war, a new virus, and aliens to keep you distracted from it. Sit with that as long as you need.

I asked my mom (a baby boomer) the other day why she didn’t talk to be about perimenopause. She said, “Jen, no one talked to me about what was going on, and I thought I was dying-I didn’t want to scare you.” We are FINALLY talking about it, and people aren’t suffering in silence. I won’t stop advocating. XO, Dr. Jen

Or we could just let them work from home instead of wasting billions of dollars in commercial rent but whatever I guess

Anyone else in their 40’s or over NOT understand how we once went to things like Coachella and Burning Man? Like did younger us have the energy, and the drive to be with so many people like that? Did we make convo? Did we participate? It’s exhausting just watching from afar. Not to sound old or irritable or menopausal anything. XO, Dr. Jen

@ctvottawa Great, resurrect the circus tent.

@alandrummond2 Pretty much how all women are treated by the medical system. Hysterical. Not sick.

I don't think most people seem to realize we're about to have the worst oil shortage in history. It's really weird.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

Qatar and Emirates airlines are fully refunding tickets as far ahead as July travel. Not even rescheduling anymore. Make of that what you will.

One month after starting the war in Iran, this is the statement of the President of the United States on Easter Sunday. These are the ravings of a dangerous and mentally unbalanced individual. Congress has got to act NOW. End this war.

If obesity were simply a failure to “put the fork down,” we would have solved it decades ago. Instead, what we see, consistently, is that when people cut calories, the body adapts: hunger signals rise, satiety signals fall, and energy expenditure drops. The system pushes back. Not weak will. Physiology. That’s why people can lose weight with effort, and then find it disproportionately hard to keep it off. The brain defends a higher set point. You don’t notice this when things are easy; you feel it when they aren’t. Medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists don’t replace discipline. They change the biology that makes discipline insufficient, by reducing hunger, quieting food noise, and allowing people to sustain changes that otherwise fight them every step of the way. That’s treating a disease with tools that match the mechanism. We don’t tell people with hypertension to “just relax harder.” We don’t tell people with asthma to “breathe better.” We treat the underlying physiology. And importantly, this isn’t either-or. The people who do best with medications are the same ones improving diet, moving more, sleeping better. The difference is they’re no longer trying to row upstream with a broken oar. You can frame it as a character flaw if you like. Medicine looks at the data and sees a regulatory system that sometimes needs help. Perhaps you should too.

Still can’t believe this is real. They’re fighting over their equity cards. Each one is trying to be the biggest victim.
