When nation building projects become synonymous with infrastructure development, the Chinese party-state apparatus must be feeling a tad hurt over the collapse of Hongqi Bridge in Sichuan. Source: innate huaren spidey vibe

My grandmother was one of the first women hired as a labourer at Inco Mines. I'm the first generation of women in my family to NOT work in the trades. We can't separate Amber's death from the reality that she was working in an overwhelmingly male dominated field. Sending her family so much love

Gutted. We have lost a brilliant voice in the world. Rest in peace Alice Wong @sfdirewolf.bsky.social you were so inspiring to so many of us. Thank you for sharing all your words and for always shining a light on the disability community.

Having dreams about being on the run & afraid for my life for the past week now… Whoever is responsible for my psych-op at MSS should probably get a raise 🤷🏻‍♀️

once again I'm begging and pleading with someone in the press to draw this obvious connection between trump/epstein and trump's precision defunding of programs that assist women who are the victims of domestic and sexual abuse

But that is the reality of the voting public: young women and young men are more politically polarized. I’m not surprised that the political divisions in this country are based on the fault lines of gender, generation and class.

I’m gonna be a little contrarian about the discourse surrounding the CPC and Pierre Poilievre. To pundits, PCs, basically the upper class PP is a disaster. But to his base that’s not the case. And I think that split is class-based

It’s funny how just a few years ago the government was actively trying to make people not participate in elections - because they’d lose - and now they are actively trying to make people vote - because they need legitimacy, but also, because this is super embarrassing

A few years ago, Hongkonger youths took to the streets to demand democratic reforms. This was a picture of Chinese University in 2019 (Citizen news, HKFP) Ever wondered what drove a whole generation of youths to risk their lives to protest?

A new week is here #MilkTeaAlliance & here is the🧵of events for it. B4 we start our thoughts with our friends in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Fung-Wong impacts, a million people have evacuated their homes. This is the 2nd major Typhoon to hit in as many months. Video: Dyves Turado 1/

Today marks the 6th year since the passing of Alex Chow Tsz-lok. A lot has changed since his passing, but may he rest in peace knowing that his memory and his struggle lives on.

"I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass one day. I was left without adequate words to describe that experience. It reminded me that I am alive."

I'm so happy to support the PJP, who offer humanizing, honest stories from some of the least heard voices. Incredible, important work you can also directly support: prisonjournalismproject.fundjournalism.org/prisonjourna...

I almost never any speaking notes when delivering workshops & speeches 🙈 However I have very little confidence to deliver a series in HK Cantonese lmao… Currently translating politico terms into Chinese because how the fuck am I supposed to refer to a party whip without sounding dirty

Liberals survived TWO confidence vote so far. This week has been too much excitement, I need a cuppa non caffeinated tea.

#Budget2025 analysis from @policyalternatives.ca: Major military spending will come at a huge cost to vital public programs and services. Which parties will support the minority government on this one? By @davidmaccdn.bsky.social @hadrianmk.bsky.social www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

Budget 2025 confidence vote to happen MON NOV 17, per Govt House Leader. Let’s say it fails. Carney visits GG Nov 18 for elxn which by law could only be held MON DEC 29 or MON JAN 5. Merry Christmas!

Canada’s major national security and defence agencies facing only a 2% cut overall in Budget 2025. This includes CBSA, CSE, CSIS, DND and the RCMP.

Read the damn thing, lots of vibes but no organized thoughts... The 🍒 on top of today is seeing liberals gain a seat after this mini drama 🙆🏻‍♀️

They’ve started running Dick Cheney through the Charlie Kirk sanitation machine. The man pushed false WMD claims, justified torture, and expanded unchecked executive power after 9/11. He showed zero remorse for the hundreds of thousands who died in Iraq. Like… stop it.

The seemingly outsized cuts to Global Affairs Canada in Budget 2025 are hard to square with the government’s repeated call to expand and deepen Canada's international partnerships. Reinvesting in the military is welcome – but defence is just one tool of our international policy.

The vibe is… lol

BUDGET DAY! That means your fave nerds are busy reading this monstrosity. K bye. 👋🏼

As we await the federal budget, a reminder that social programs, access to basic needs like housing, food, etc. are not "Good to have" - they are essential. "We'll get to addressing violence, poverty, homophobia, racism, etc. once we deal with the tariffs" is bad economic policy AND absolute BS.

i knew way before i got fired from a now shuttered dc think tank that institutions only use minorities for decorative purposes and the instant you have and use a voice, you are a risk to them

The question of age limit is tricky for Lee because Xi is 72…

In case you missed it last week: We gathered a few friends and colleagues to write about the extraordinary life of Jerome A. Cohen (1930-2025), renowned lawyer and scholar of Chinese law.

Ew but also this will have immense implication of exponentially intensified sexualized violence against women girls femmes and non-men I can’t shake the feeling that the techbros are trying to address the male loneliness crisis by making AIs the emotional-social outlet of toxic men

Performing whiteness is about control, restriction, conformity. In whiteness standing out is sacrilege, expressing emotions is crazy, joy is suppressed (joy is unbridled by nature) work is how you value yourself. In whiteness there is no inherent value in being born it’s something u attain over time

has anyone told white women that girl boss energy is just corporate america telling us to sell our minds, bodies, souls and futures to advance capitalism (pivoting the bluesky acc to mirror my og intrusive thoughts tweets 🤓

I don't eat animal protein but I'll never call my diet 'cruelty free' because the people growing and harvesting the fruits and vegetables I eat work in conditions like this. Cruelty to humans matters, too.
