Canadians come from a long and proud line of fascist fighters.

I feel like a dog’s breakfast. 🤮
I sincerely hope I feel at least well enough tomorrow to eke through my 8hr shift as each hour lost is over $22 I can’t afford to lose even a penny of.

Get vaxxed folks.

Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

It’s banned book week and with all we are facing in this country, it’s more important than ever to stand up for free speech. Take a look at some of the things you can do to bring the consequences of banning books to light! #BannedBooksWeek

Once Upon a Banned Book

When books are banned, freedom is stifled. Let's celebrate knowledge and reading while defending resistance!

Time to drop some f bombs and talk about the face of gangster fascism.
Gone are the grey uniforms and goose-steps in are the baseball caps and botox.
But the fascist playbook is redefining politics. We need to call it out.
This is my latest.

ICYMI: Rush announces a new tour. WAIT–WHAT? #musicnews

Rush announces a new tour. WAIT–WHAT?

This was not an announcement anyone was expecting to start the week. When Neil Peart died, the general consensus among everyone–including Geddy and Alex–was that Rush was done. They’d been a team since

We stand with WAR TORN Portland, Oregon

Stay strong #Portland

#BlueCrew #TruthWarriors #Resist #ResistTrump #StrongerTogether #JusticeForAll

Digital illustration titled “Portland, 2025” showing a cartoon green frog wearing a blue scarf standing calmly in front of a line of riot police in black armor with batons and shields. The frog faces the officers alone, evoking themes of protest, resistance, and internet culture. Urban background with cloudy sky adds tension.

🇨🇦Sandy: No narcissistic leaders!🇨🇦 @sandydz.bsky.social · 1d

I believe that an investigation is warranted to understand why so many of us Ontarians never received the voter card in time to be able to vote early.

#DougFord has been in power long enough to know where and how to manipulate to get what he wants.

He is a true narcissist!

After being handed his third consecutive majority by the clueless voters of Ontario, Teflon Dougie really believes he's untouchable now. He's feeling the wind in his sails and is no longer bothering to hide the corruption. With the opposition in disarray, he's confident he can buy the next election.
