Back at the emergency room, sitting outside, with the same foot wound that I was discharged for on the 20th. Debating whether or not I should go in or go home and finish packing until I bleed out on the floor.

Our politicians were able to get off TikTok -- so why not from Twitter?

The platform is letting its users create non-consensual sexual deepfakes of women and kids. That can't be the price of public participation in our digital down square.

Our government MUST act.

For @thetyee.ca, here’s how:

We live in a time when digital platforms are places we gather. Imagine if X was a physical space, where CSAM and non-consensual porn of women was being projected on walls and displayed on TV screens. Is this a place ANYONE should go on purpose? Is this a place our government should convene?
I will accept no moral high ground from a government that refuses to ban a platform that is actively, in real time, right in front of our faces, creating child sexual abuse materials.

They're not banning it and there are still government departments with official Twitter accounts.

Fuck Carney.
Canada not considering a ban on X over deepfake controversy, AI minister says
The platform, which is owned by Elon Musk, has been embroiled in controversy over sexualized deepfakes of women and children created by X’s chatbot Grok.

Food bank visits in Canada are at record highs.

That used to mean “emergency.”

Now it means wages, rent, groceries, and debt are misaligned.

When a country normalizes food banks for working people…

it’s no longer charity. It’s infrastructure

The concept of posting “Canada is not considering a ban of X” as a QUOTE of your post condemning deepfake sexual abuse happening **ON X** of women and kids………….

Clear-eyed, fact-based, and written to explain to normies. No “both sidesing.” No “Trump officials disagree.”
No gaslighting that what we can see with our own eyes might not be true.

This is journalism. Well done, @people.com

Abysmal statement from Canada on the illegal US action in Venezuela.

It doesn’t matter how much you dislike Maduro, that doesn’t justify a violation of international law and the UN Charter. You can’t call on “all parties” to respect international law and not call out US lawlessness.
Please see my statement on the situation in Venezuela:

Crucial update: It's shorter than I was expecting them to want to go, and I've never seen them so happy and confident. Listen to your kids when they tell you who they are.
My kiddo is getting their first big hair chop today. They're 10 and exploring gender, going from waist-length hair that people always comment on to a short androgenous style. I'm excited, but also worried. They struggle with rigid thinking, and I worry the cut won't live up to their expectations.

New Zealand goes down the path of genocide against trans youth.
The Government is banning new patients from being prescribed the most common form of puberty blocker and is explicitly aligning NZ's future policy on this matter to the UK's. PR below.
