Let's talk about the morality of the negative economic impact of Tim Houston's attack on Nova Scotia - Halifax Examiner There is a negative economic impact of cutting all the arts and social programs. It is real, and it is enormous, but Houston doesn't value it enough to even measure the loss of them.

Morning File by me

I'll have to try again in the future, just to see. It was nowhere near as bad as my experience at the walk-in, but it did leave me very confused.

Yep! I was told they weren't allowed to prescribe controlled substances through it.

At this point, I'm under the impression there are no rules for any of this and it's just a mass gaslighting campaign.

I booked an appointment at the primary care clinic. Their power went out day-of. Had a phone appointment and received three months' worth of vyvanse without an in person visit.

VirtualCare shut me down because I had to be in person, and the walk-in didn't even bother to read my records.

The fuck?

Heads up for those who were interested in attending this talk!

PSA - Public Bills Committee starts Monday

Had a great conversation with Robin a few weeks back. He's incredibly wise. Would highly recommend attending this talk.

If you dummies vote in another conservative government im on the next plane to gander

I really dont wanna go to gander

It’s almost like these Ministers weren’t part of the budgetary process, and have no idea what cuts have happened to their portfolios. If they can’t talk to the details, how can they explain them? No wonder they want an “assistant” to do the talking. -ND

Is Nova Scotia going to get so bad that I consider moving back to Newfoundland?

Probably

YEEEEEES

It strikes me that last year's attacks on democracy were of course terrible, but this is an order of magnitude worse. It's not an attack directly on governance, but it has more profound effect by undermining the financing of institutions that make democracy happen.

'We're not giving up. We're not backing down': Let's stand together against the greed - Halifax Examiner "Together, let's tell Tim Houston to stop selling our futures, and demand that he respect the Treaties, our democratic rights and our community voices."

When I was working as a small town reporter a couple years ago, the pay started at $18 per hour. Car was required for the job. It was nearly impossible to get by.

I made the mistake of going to a walk-in clinic to reup on ADHD meds.

Wouldn't prescribe the meds I've been taking. Prescribed an entirely different drug. Didn't tell me anything about what it does. Didn't look at the medical records I provided or ask any questions about my ADHD.

The fuck?

Hey friends!
Being alive is expensive.
I’m in the process of Income Assistance which along with bills will cover the heckin expensive medication I literally cannot live without.
If you have some pocket change, I could use a little boost while I wait!

That twist was incredible. I'm often on the lookout for narrative mixups, especially in media that have darker themes, but I did not see the Act 1 twist coming. I figured something big would happen, but not that. Not in a million years.

if you've played clair obscur, you know that its first act ends on a twist that's hugely impactful in both narrative and gameplay senses. how do you make a moment like that satisfying and resonant without players seeing it coming from a mile away? I asked the game's lead writer

BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned.

A shocking end for a well-respected studio.

Fillmore spent nearly half of a minimum wage worker's annual earnings on a speech that staff could've written.

A couple of Canadian journalists (myself included) have started a fundraiser for Trenth Ernst & Tumbler Ridgelines. Since the shooting, he's stopped writing. We're hoping to get him some short-term support for these hard times.
