Only one of these things is debatable with me:

I’m a settler on stolen land. 🧡

BLM. ACAB. Defund the Police.👊

All trans people deserve access to gender-affirming care. 🏳️‍⚧️

Not your body? Not your business. 👍

Housing, healthcare, and basic needs are human rights. 😊

Pineapple goes on pizza. 🍕

“Guinea Pigs Don’t Wear Pants, reminds us we can do, be, and wear whatever we love — self-expression is human. And as someone who owned two guinea pigs, I can confirm: they definitely do not wear pants.” —Tegan Quin, musician (Tegan and Sara) and author

Canadians stand with Rachel Gilmore. The Conservative government, whose actions and rhetoric have put her in harm’s way, must take responsibility and act immediately to ensure her safety. This injustice cannot be

Two months of dealing with a mental health crisis. Feeling much better now. How is everyone doing? Did I miss anything?

Let’s play a game! Who said this? Was it Jesus? Or was it Ellie Barlowe of North Dartmouth, Massachusetts?

To all the Cardinals that didn’t get elected Pope, don’t worry. You can run again in Alberta.

Anyone else find it weird that these Maple MAGA bros are cheering for a guy who’s never had a job outside of politics? You want to drain the swamp? Poilievre has literally been the swamp plug for 21 years. #CanPoli

Trans doesn’t stand for “transitioning.”
We’re not becoming “something new.”
We’re affirming who we’ve always been.

My husband: where did that come from?

Me: once you vote Liberal they start sending you performative allyship trinkets and tools in the mail. It’s called “Woke Box.”

My husband: really?

Me: no!!!! My friend bought that for me!

Pierre Poilievre rolled into Hamilton today to talk tough on encampments. When asked for a comment on this major announcement from his own party, JP Danko was unavailable—he was busy knocking on doors for the Liberals. #HamOnt #CanPoli

Jesus came back today and told me he wants you to put the Christ back in Christian. Ok, bye!

Singh asks if he can buy you a drink. Carney just buys you one. And you never leave your drink unattended around Poilievre.
