 You think she'll come out and tell the truth about the clot-shots? 
 In all seriousness, what should we know about the "clot shots"? 
 Wayyy too sweet. I don’t like dark chocolate on its own, but in cookies it supplies the perfect... 
 Ciao Bella used to have a matcha white chocolate that I bet you would have considered good. 
 "The effectiveness of a single vaccine dose wanes over time. But you build up immunity against future variants in the long run if you’ve had multiple vaccines."

This is a plain and simple insane lie. I don't know how serious organizations can write stuff like this.

 I think trans is now running full speed into the wall. I think this kind of thing is it. I've long wished, but never believed, we are at the beginning of the end. I think we are now.

 This seems sane...although I can't help but feel that ontario and BC will pledge fealty to gender crazy while all those other backwards provinces will diplomatically mitigate it. 
 Pharmacies are filled with shelves of pretend medicine. We've known this for a long time. How can we expect to the public to trust any public health messaging when the places afforded the authority to distribute (potentially dangerous) medicine have been engaging in this for so long (when we all knew better)?

 These policies about notifying parents when kids “change pronouns” are making my head spin.  ... 
 I feel the specific laws on "pronoun changes" sort of deepen the rabbit hole of crazy... we'd be better off against broader protection against indoctrination...
But then, this is all part of the magic of legal alchemy I suppose. Many intuitive ideas are probably wrong when you deal in alchemy. 
 This was very enjoyable.

 "While the protests were described as opposing sexualization and indoctrination of children at school, they have included significant misinformation about what is actually being taught at schools, as well as around medical procedures. Many of issues that are fuelling people’s anger and fear are based on misinformation, but also outright lies, Wells said."

What is this misinformation exactly?

“In talking about these issues, somehow there’s still this belief that it’s a contagion, that you’re going to catch it. Same with the gender ideology, they believe trans people don’t exist,” Wells said"

No.
