I enjoy yelling into the void, yarn, and cats.
Sometimes I watch adults on the Internet and just... I have two actual children at home.

Block \ mute \ unfollow \ less of this please.

American imperialism is having to specify that you need to use your own country's currency on its largest transit system 🙄

The rest of the world understands all the structural reasons why Americans can't readily protest like other countries can.

We also understand that the longer they wait to start the more violence it's going to take.

And as a Canadian, that its coming for us next.

Because it's coming regardless.

My mom - millennials are so rude and entitled

Also my mom - why didn't you answer my video call when you were on the train? (Knowing that I'm on the train)

Imagine being the actor who gets the next James Bond gig and then having it be this 🫣🫣
Jeff Bezos buying James Bond, buying the broccoli family out, just so his rebound wife can be fucked by James Bond on camera is the most divorced anyone has ever been

The Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has released a draft standard requiring masks (like N95s) in health care settings to stop airborne infections.

There is a strong attempt to push back against this, so need your public comments to get this through: publicreview.csa.ca/Home/View/22...

Kind of wild to see so many men double down on blaming Instagram users for not understanding.

If this many people don't understand\are uncomfortable, your product team built the wrong thing (or your execs pushed for the wrong thing).

Even if you think you were clear, you obviously weren't 🤷🏽‍♀️

When there are 4 people on the streetcar wearing n95s you are damn right I'm going to stand with them (also in my n95).

Things I'm kind of tired of is the new 'if you aren't posting about Gaza from your business account you don't care'.

Tired of the moral purity tests from folks who can't be bothered to mask.

We've continued to get the odd order from Israel. We don't know what the opinions of the people ordering are, but I don't feel comfortable keeping those dollars. So every time I've passed the dollars through for esims or direct aid.

I am going to be so fascinated to read the post-mortem about how a revolt lead by tech billionaires lead to a gutting of both scientific research, university education and immigrant labor, all key prerequisites to the very existence of their industries.
I can't stress enough how close U.S. science is to the cliff.

"Numbers released in May by the National Science Foundation (NSF) indicate that if Congress approves the cuts to the agency proposed by the White House, the number of early-career researchers it supports could fall by 78%" (@science.org)
‘It’s a nightmare.’ U.S. funding cuts threaten academic science jobs at all levels

I think the thing that I really don't understand about folks not being willing to give up harry potter is that this is the hill the hill they'll die on - books that really aren't even very well written 😂😂

imagine being willing to throw trans folks under the bus or double down on racism for... this?

Red bars almost always > 30% and sometimes > 40% represent the % of confirmed COVID hospitalizations that are health-care associated, AKA nosocomial infection, acquired while staying in a healthcare facility.

I see we're back to the parents of autistic kids belittling how disabling the gifted neurotype can be phase of social media.

I'm sorry that the parent of the gifted kid didn't validate you in the way you wanted\needed but that doesn't mean it's okay to minimize another neurotype.

I've seen TPS pulling over 3 cars in the last 3 weeks. Are they back to actually enforcing traffic laws?

Sometimes I feel like I'm not doing enough for the folks who want screaming on the Internet. Then I remember that I did my workout in 44c heat today wearing my n95.

If folks cared about fascism the way they tell me they do, they'd be masking up.

And this is the thing - if we have listened about truth and reconciliation. If we've read and if we've learned, then we have to stand with a free Palestine.
“As a commitment to truth and reconciliation, I must acknowledge colonial and genocidal atrocities today, including the massacre of more than 17,000 Palestinian children in Gaza.”

That’s what an Ottawa high school Valedictorian said to cheers.

She was told not to come to school the next day.

Dear Toronto drivers. It doesn't matter if it's one way, you still have to use your turn signal otherwise I have to assume that you could illegally turn either way. Because that's what keeps me from getting hurt.

Use your fucking turn signal.

A long shot but may find a few in Hastings County ON.
I am in the north, much less densely populated part of this County. 30 out of every 10,000 (41 of 13,924) are unhoused. In the south, 11 per 10,000 homeless (169 of 146,159)
4 million $$ in the south. No shelter or $$ in the much COLDER north.
Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

Given how Israel has targeted journalists and how many police forces in the us have trained with the iof, this shouldn't be surprising.
