Today I tabled a bill to close dangerous loopholes in Canada’s arms export laws. 🇨🇦 must not be complicit in human rights abuses abroad. Watch my press conference here: www.cpac.ca/headline-pol...

Turns out having a clause in the charter of rights and freedoms that says “but also governments can override the courts if they really want to” was a mistake, actually

At this point I’m actively looking forward to Danielle Smith’s weird separatist referendum if only so I can delight in watching her fall on her face and become Alberta’s Lucien Bouchard

This is appalling and I hope someone stops her. Trans rights are human rights and Canada needs to set the tone. We should strive for inclusion and not adopt the divisive and discriminatory policies of our neighbours to the south.

HAPPY RELEASE DAY CESAR!!! Woke up late but had to do a little photo shoot to celebrate release day! The Golden Boy’s Guide to Bipolar is finally out in the world and I couldn’t be more proud 🥰

I will never stop writing trans joy and queer happiness

I hope you all read this from me.

cis folks, please fill this out so the @wsj.com knows that they're complicit in the ongoing dehumanization and genocide of trans people pls and thank u love bugs

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

So @dc.com pulled Red Hood from digital storefronts but you can still buy all of Sandman. The lesson here is that DC doesn't care if you sexually assault women, but don't you dare make fun of a dead fascist.

Grateful @davidgilbert.bsky.social covered this. I NEVER celebrated anyone’s murder. I said I was terrified the far-right would use this as an excuse to retaliate, and they’re proving me right with every post. These guys are out for blood. They don’t care whose. This is really bad.

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.

The day before we found out from the President himself that actually political violence is unacceptable the Supreme Court said it’s legal for masked men to bust your car window and snatch you away from your family for having the wrong skin color.

please do not give me the old razzle dazzle. give me the current up-to-date razzle dazzle.

It’s not considered political violence to dehumanize people until they’re so ostracized by society that they take their own lives. It’s not considered political violence to make policy choices to intentionally kill people by depriving them of life saving healthcare.

Report: American politicians hurriedly clarify they only condone political violence when they fund it against harmless civilians in foreign countries

Political Violence is crying over a podcaster while ignoring a school shooting.

Hey, did you know my queer TTRPG anthology releases in just SIX DAYS?? It's full of queer coming of age stories set around the gaming table. If that sounds up your alley, you can preorder from Always Here Bookstore to get a signed bookplate and sticker! www.alwaysherebooks.com/product/this...

“You should get on TikTok!!” with all due respect seeing myself on video makes me want to crawl out of my skin

Or maybe it's just being willing to never again see people as property, as possessions, as THINGS. Not just willing, but committed to living that way every day for the rest of our lives, and to teaching our children and their children the terrible cost of believing that people are objects.

I don't want things to "go back to normal." Normal SUCKED, y'all. I want things to be better than they were, better than they ever have been. That's the most frustrating part: they CAN be. We just have to want "better" more than we want racism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, and ableism.

I remember this. I remember ACT UP staging "die-ins" to get the point across. I remember wearing one of their SILENCE=DEATH buttons—you can see the design on the coffin, with the pink triangle—and getting dirty looks from people. As Faulkner wrote, "The past is never dead. It's not even past."

I am once again asking for the Totally Spies reboot

The worst part of having a manuscript set in Ontario that I’ve been working on/off for six years is that I’ve had to tweak every pop culture reference a little bit Doug Ford has been relevant the whole fucking time

“ ...it will represent a serious betrayal of Canada's longstanding positions on international law. It will mean that Canada's commitment to international law exists at the whim of those who break international law." You can’t just follow laws when they’re convenient.

UK cover reveal!! So excited to be working with @titanbooks.bsky.social to bring THIS WRETCHED BEAUTY to the UK 😊✨

“Bestie” is such a great word to call someone because it can either be very affectionate or it could mean “you have three seconds. Run.”

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

All my auction items are in this thread and the auction ends SOOOON! Get your bids in or miss your chance!!

this transfem dorian gray remix by @elleoftheball.bsky.social has consumed me, body and soul "What would it mean to look like Dorian, instead of someone else's reflection. I can't picture it. My features come to mind easily enough... but they feel disjoined." bookshop.org/p/books/this...

This from Riley Gaines is why trans people freak out when Democrats try to carve out some compromise over sports. The politicians and activists attacking trans people are not interested in compromise! They're interested in our eradication from public life and are exploiting sports to that end

Banned Books Week is October 5-11. With some organization this could be a watershed year for activism. Here are some ideas for events you can hold in your district, at your library, at the bookstore. Get started now to make the week powerful docs.google.com/document/d/e...

Someone at work asked if I'd rather watch Twilight or Cats (2019) and I said "Grizabella where have you been loca" which is one of the best jokes I've ever made and it did not land with my very male coworker chat.

The prolonged public torturing of a single man because the state cannot admit to its errors is not something that occurs in a free country

Finally watched KPop Demon Hunters and wow okay I understand

I wonder if Bluesky would ban someone for saying they hope Joanne is haunted by various Dickensian apparitions tormenting her until she learns to not be a hateful pile of toxic waste (Hypothetically, of course)

I keep getting told that our Prime Minister has a plan. That he is smart. But sucking up to gangsters isn't smart. Ending the Russian invasion of Ukraine cannot be about the west going along with Trump's dreadful appeasement of Putin. 1938. 1938. 1938. 1938.

it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people reinstate Jessie, this is ridiculous
