Folks at @springmagca covered @pasan_to important prisoner justice periodical, Cell Count, in a recent article by Eric Shatosky that also mentions our Enabling Justice Prisoner Justice Project. Link to article in bio!

Friends, we held a stop at Ottawa's May Day March at Abiwin Co-operative to talk about Justin Clark, the fight for deinstitutionalization, and the power of friendship. Together, we have the power of friendship—the power to fight—the power to win! Watch: youtu.be/yImFIf5n4qw

Yall wanna hear something extremely embarrassing? Before Trump’s election, a bunch of academics who lumbered rightward after being criticized by the left (Pinker, Dawkins, Krauss) wrote essays for a book that is coming out in July about the threats to academia from the left. YALL, THE TITLE!!

Friends, this is bigger than any election, any party, & any Premier. This is our future. No matter who wins the next election, we've made a promise—stick together, keep up pressure, & end austerity for everyone. Listen to our open letter & join us at endausterity.ca www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vjwv...

Just as a personal aside, @cityofhamilton.bsky.social, but what the solid hell is going on with your Procedural Bylaws? Every vote and process happening with the 2025 Budget seems *wildly* over-complicated so much so we're watching folks re-vote on issues from budget committee minutes? 1/2

Brad did another media chat in the last little while, this one with @regentparkfocus . It really gets in deep with some important topics ranging from Social Assistance to Social Murder and everything in between. Full interview on Regent Park TV here: youtu.be/tVPwrK5FBbg

What does it mean for a workplace to be truly accommodating for all? How can we advocate for more people-first workplaces? Labour reporter Gabriela Calugay-Casuga sits down with Brad Evoy, the executive director with @djno.ca to discuss all this and more. #canlab

Folks, we need to fight back the reactionary movement against our unhoused neighbours. Disabled people are in the crosshairs of fundamental attacks on our rights across so-called Canada on every front—we cannot let up until we are truly free to be & be part of our communities. #DisabilityJustice

Meta literally created a LGBTQ exception for calling someone mentally ill as an insult. You can't do it for any other group except LGBTQ people.

The head of the Hamilton-based Disability Justice Network of Ontario, @evoy.bsky.social, says the 20-year implementation of the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act left "a huge chasm" between the disabled community's hopes and reality. https://buff.ly/3C6Z8pi #OnPoli

Last week, Brad had a great chat with CBC Hamilton's @justinchandler.work about the atrocious state of accessibility in Ontario. We need new ways forward w/ new legislation/standards for critical areas like housing and a wide reinvestment into social services. cbc.ca/news/canada/...

*looks around Ontario* … *taps the sign*

Media Coverage of the Canada Post Strike is Centering Business Interests, Not the Interests of Workers Canadian media coverage of the postal strike promotes anti-worker narratives pressprogress.ca/media-covera...

Proud to have a Board and Staff that supports getting word out and setting the record straight on the CUPW strike.

We're here!

🎯 @evoy.bsky.social’s comments that RHF Gold Accessibility Certification is fools gold.

Hey #disability sky, would people want a Disability Justice Network of Ontario account over here? It’d be mostly cross-posting, but would that be a thing?

oh my god

🥲

this obit is so brutal and so great

“If I pay you for an e-book, I should own that book,” he said. “Companies used to sell things. Media companies now rent them instead." Brewster Kahle in today's NYT. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/13/business/media/internet-archive-emergency-lending-library.html

So you're saying we should query it constantly with absolute bullshit to drive the costs higher

"harry truman was actually good" is Not the dipshit take i expected to see on bluesky today. twitter is down the hall and to the left!

The commanding heights of universities are conservative spaces

When I met Jim Starlin, he told me “There’s only one difference between writing for Marvel and and writing for DC. The editors at Marvel are tyrants, and the editors at DC are idiots.”

it's like a tagline for one of those mobile games always in ads with names like "War Clash of Tank Clans"

we are officially 90 days into the writers' strike. it's a big day because this means studios can officially invoke "force majeure" and start terminating suspended overall deals, which happened in 07-08 too https://variety.com/2023/film/news/writers-strike-force-majeuer-deals-terminated-1235682117/

So, the Kollektiva Mastodon instance had a backup nabbed by the FBI (in an unrelated raid) and they didn’t say anything for six weeks? That’s genuinely blood-boiling for social movement folks. Why would anyone put movement folks’ data in the US anyway? From @eff.bsky.social:

I know there was a bunch of Scarboroughposting around a few days ago, but Scarborough Community Legal Services has a BlueSky now.

That one hurt me

Sinead O'Connor stood up to child abuse in the Church before it was safe to do so. When she ripped the Pope's picture on SNL she was completely ostracized from the entertainment community. For being right

JK Rowling and TERF's are fake feminists and will align with horrifying misogynists like Matt Walsh if it serves their transphobic agenda

what is hell yeah
