Hibernation Day #243 | Work, garden, buried a bird who flew into a window, watched the unsurprising HoC vote on travel restrictions, Lamented for the Nation. Mask count continues to fall. #NoVaccineMandates 1/

The whole edifice of masks, mandates, passports has slipped beneath the waves. The loonies in Ontario and Quebec are still hysterical but life goes on. You can now say ivermectin on Twitter without being banned. #NoVaccineMandates 2/

We had the great pleasure of a pod of orcas going by the house at 7:30 AM. (Which is why no pictures.) Four. We are incredibly lucky to have the ocean right out front. We also have a couple of sky cobras and their goslings wandering around the Islet. #NoVaccineMandates 3/

So much of the last two years has been about maintaining some semblance of balance in the face of public health and governmental madness. We've been lucky because we are largely disconnected from the day to day world. #NoVaccineMandates 4/

For many people, it was "the jab or your job" or "get jabbed to see your kids play hockey". I'm self employed so not a problem. And I simply waited for ten minutes until the vax passport checker left his post and walked on in. 5/

Susan simply stopped wearing a mask anywhere in January, I was done in late February but had rarely worn one unless asked prior to that. Non-compliance was not all that tough. And it is a virtue which we need to hone. #NoVaccineMandates 6/

As COVID fades, whether because of seasonality or because it is endemic and natural immunity has kicked in, we have to be ready for the next "crisis". Which means being able to say "No" and mean it. It also means ignoring silly rules. #NoVaccineMandates 7/

A lot of people have learned just how silly a Karen armed with a mandate can be. Fortunately, in BC, the police generally, de-escalated any situations which arose and, unless prodded by public health Karens, ignored the shrills of the mask Karens. #NoVaccineMandates 8/

I have no idea of what public health stunt will be tried next or even if there will be another stunt. What I do know is that people need to push back right from the go. And, hey, surpline legacy media, could you at least pretend to ask hard questions. #NoVaccineMandates 9/

Hibernation is coming to its natural close. The COVID narratives have collapsed under the weight of their own scientific contradictions - the triple jabbed are getting COVID in far greater numbers than the vax virgins. And they are getting it over and over. #NoVaccineMandates 10/

There is no joy in pointing out to the triple jabbed that they have fucked up their immune systems. No satisfaction in knowing they are open to all manner of nasty infections, side effects, adverse events. #NoVaccineMandates 11/

Omicron killed the narrative dead. Now we get to watch PHO and government try to spin negative jab effects into "Long COVID". Good luck with that.
