From:

1. That's just frightening. Ottawa's testing centres are consistently facing 'round-the-block-sized lineups during their "open" hours right now. I can't tell you about Gatineau.

2. Yeah, not interested in that book. Now or ever.

3. All of this is true. And cause for ongoing concern.

4. This is just disturbing for reasons I'm not entirely clear on.

6. Echoing some of Charlie Stross' thoughts there.

8. This one looked dubious at first and seems to have garnered more credibility overnight. I see echoes of crimes against Indigenous women in Canada by our medical community and government across the decades in this.

Very cool, if true
