In the last few decades we've noticed that we've been treating each other like shit. We've used race, skin colour, ethnicity, weight, etc to insult others and reduce their social standing.

We're trying to fix that. As such, calling out those specific differences is frowned on, even if we aren't using them negatively.

Is this inconvenient? Yes. It's pretty easy to point out the only black/fat/disabled person in a work place. But we're really trying to avoid any conversations that could turn into insults or attacks.

It would be interesting to know which other organizations are handling plasma donations. It sounds like there are other private providers, but, aside from the one bought by Grifols, they aren't mentioned.

Similarly, it'd be interesting to know what percentage of these procedures Grifols is responsible for. They're responsible for 25/27 reported incidents, but did they do 99.99% of procedures or 10%?

The other two reactions were reported by Héma-Québec, a non-profit organization, the regulator said. Héma-Québec told CBC it actually reported three during this period.

Good guy HQ being honest.

Police say the fugitives were arrested without incident after "an unrelated call for service" and taken back to Alberta.

I would like to know more about this. What was the call for? Who called it in?

Weren't we already up by 4 at that point?

I think the highlight isn't the score, but the fact we only need a tie to guarantee a spot in the next round.

It's funny how many of these have been about how uncomfortably hot/cold it is.

The world before AC was rough.
