Hey - this kid goes to school with my neighbour's kid and has been missing since yesterday. He's 12 and was last seen near Danforth and Pharmacy. Could use a boost <3

Firaol is described as 5'2", with a thin build, short black hair, and brown eyes. Firaol was last seen wearing a sweater, blue jeans, and a black jacket.

Ugh 😩 I met my new doctor today, had my yearly exam, and got three vaccines. Now I feel like shit from the jabs, and lemme tell you...

I'd get them again in a fucking heartbeat, because science and social responsibility fucking rock 🤘

@benroyce @CppGuy @alice When
I was 15 there was a huge meningitis epidemic. People were dying. So everyone got vaxxed. I went with a schoolfriend of mine and her mom. My friend was afraid of needles and I was too. I was, though, more afraid of dying.
I went first and got it, it was fine.
My friend, though, a 15 year old teen, made this RIDICULOUS scene, cried, screamed, the drama lasted one hour (1/2)

@benroyce @CppGuy @alice until her mom, I and two nurses almost had to drag her to get fucking vaxxed because there was a lineup of people who were acting normal and a 15 year old doing all of that was ridiculous and unacceptable.

So, when I see an antivaxxer, my mind thinks of my schoolfriend

@JessTheUnstill @benroyce @CppGuy @alice I don't mind people having needle phobia, I mind people creating crazy conspiracy theories when they could own it and say "yeah, I have needle phobia"

Owning your fears = good
Spreading disinfo and anti science behaviour because you can't even say you're afraid of needles = I'm happy to shame you for it

@JessTheUnstill @benroyce @CppGuy @alice You don’t need a majority, in fact, you only need one person with enough influence, one RFK-like person to fuck it up for everyone else

It’s not about numbers it’s about power

Ultra competitive behaviours, in a corporate setting, scream insecurity and lack of emotional regulation.

However, we have spent the last century rewarding ultra competitive people with leadership positions and given them a ridiculous amount of power.

Unsurprisingly, we get authoritarian bully regimes as a result.

Stop rewarding unregulated insecure people with leadership positions and promote empathetic, self assured leaders.
