Well done and thank you to Tumblr for making a cat on this "participants per hour" graph for me to wake up to today: docs.google.com/spreadsheets... PS: Over 27,000 participants so far this year! If the gender binary doesn't know what to do with you, please click here: survey.gendercensus.com

The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025! survey.gendercensus.com It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

Observed this past weekend at an Ottawa Loblaws. Very uncool, Loblaws.... #BuyCanadian #CdnPoli

I implore the Attorney General of Canada 🇨🇦 the Honourable @seanfraser.bsky.social to immediately launch a federal investigation into Justice Maria Carroccia. #cdnpoli #hockeycanada

I staff a college library reference desk, & there are way too many mothers calling in to complete tasks that their kids should be able to accomplish on their own. It’s almost always a son whom they inadvertently portray as an overgrown helpless & incompetent baby.

This. Reminder that Ko-fi put the NSFW filter on my page because it included the word "trans". Everyone trying to send me money got a warning about it. (It had absolutely no NSFW content & the filtering went away once I removed the word.) So definitely not a good alternative to Itch, Patreon etc.

A handy script: bsky.app/profile/iant...

I called Visa. Don't let them give you the run-around about how their line is for "issues with lost or stolen cards". Tell them that you are registering a complaint, and if they won't transfer you to a supervisor, you can register your complaint directly with that person. US + CAN: 1-800-847-2911

They're going for black triangles now.

Social media is not having this Hockey Canada verdict and professor after professor (legal & otherwise) are explaining to younger audiences how problematic the Judge & the verdict were. Canada 🇨🇦 will not be gaslit into thinking what we witnessed was normal or okay. #canadasky

If you are interested in learning more about how the outcome of today’s Hockey Canada trial came to be- We have a recently published book on hockey and the culture that leads to these incidents happening published by a Canadian press.

Mens junior Canadian hockey is dead to me. Will never watch or support another game.

“I said, ‘No, I’m very sorry, I’m in Canada.’ And I said I’m polite enough to talk to you guys but you cannot arrest me. ‘You can’t come across the border and pick me up’ but they did,” he recalled www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

NEW: The Canadian military is awarding 2 contracts worth a total of $169 million to an American company whose subsidiary a federal jury found legally responsible for the abuse of three Iraqi men at Abu Ghraib prison. www.readthemaple.com/canada-award...

OH HEY ITS THE EUGENICS OF DISABLED PEOPLE WE ALL TOLD YOU WAS COMING

Focusing on the woman's level of intoxication toward providing consent, rather than the issue of trauma response (up to 10 hockey players in the room!!!), is some old-school victim blaming bullshit.

The Hockey Canada sex assault trial just ended with all the players acquitted. And it’s another reminder that an imperfect victim will almost never find justice. I’m not sure how you can claim to ‘find actual consent’ here, even if you think the accusations weren’t proven. What an awful outcome.

The hockey Canada verdicts came back today as Not Guilty and that puts the final nail in the coffin of me wishing professional athletes would be held to the same standards as regular people. Absolutely abhorrent, my heart & love is with all survivors today.

When Trump mocked a disabled reporter, we warned you. When he said his disabled nephew should be left to die, we warned you. When we rushed “back to normal” & disabled people were left by the wayside, we warned you. When Oz said it’s a “patriotic duty” to be healthy, we warned you.

Autistic needs are not preferences. They’re not quirks. They’re not “nice to have.” They are needs. Sensory needs. Emotional needs. Communication needs. Movement needs. Food needs. Rest needs. You weren’t “too much.” You were just never given the language to name what you needed.

So, the Coast Guard - an arm of the American military - straight up went into Canadian waters and kidnapped a Canadian citizen. What the actual fuck is happening? How is this not being treated as an international incident?

🚨There's still time to speak up for proportional representation in BC!🚨 Already sent in your submission? Amazing — now tell your friends! Not in BC? Share this with someone who is! Deadline: July 25 at 2 PM PT

There are a lot of proposed designs for an autistic pride flag, and as an autistic person I'd like a sense of which are most liked 💛 I've put together a survey asking folks to rate about 50 flag designs on a scale of 1-5: forms.gle/Hwin2kLu2YY8... #ActuallyAutistic #AutisticPride #Vexillology

We have vineyard 🍷 tourists from 🇺🇸 complaining about farm workers smoking weed— how do you think the wine is grown? Wow. Stay home. They’re our neighbours, you’re not.

Chretien basically telling Bush to fuck off after 9/11 should be a heritage minute.

Precisely

It hurts how accurate this is

amazing new research on sonic sensitivity and autism. 24.3 percent of participants were non-binary, 58.4 percent were women, and just 15.9 percent were men. This is in stark contrast to the typical narratives and stereotypes about autistic people

This is great news! Marineland has a long history of mistreatment of animals.

I need people to understand this is not going to be just for immigrants, this is how it happened in Germany 🇩🇪. Please come to terms with that.

If this were true, we would have a functional passenger rail system

This is horseshit and any climate scientist worth their salt will say so. Plant trees 🌳.

It started in Palestine with bi-partisan 🇺🇸 support, friends.

When I just got using Tumblr I was initially appalled by the culture of DNIs (lists of "do not interact" if, like just block me if these apply) and it's come to be something I actually miss when using other platforms 🙃

The cruelty and depravity should scare anyone paying attention.

A BC NDP cabinet minister's office was bombed overnight. We are not immune from this kind of political violence. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Holy cow! Danielle Smith’s anti trans legislation has been dealt a major blow with an injunction preventing it from coming into force until the court challenge by Skipping Stone, Egale and families is adjudicated! Best Friday news in a long time! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Wab Kinew trolling Moe & Smith is 10/10 #mbpoli

Grateful for the outpouring of support from community members and people across BC, including MLAs from all sides of the House. My staff, my family, and I are okay. The latest update from NorthVan RCMP can be found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlJd...

Let’s compare the current Prime Minister’s rookie year with the last Prime Minister’s, one is supporting genocide 1st term, the other was:

We need answers—now. Where is our sister Hilary Rivers? ICE took her the morning after Pride with no warning, no due process, and no communication. This is not justice—this is kidnapping. We demand transparency, accountability, and her immediate release. Read more: 48hills.org/2025/06/drag...

The threat of authoritarian takeover will always be high as long as we keep using an electoral system that gives parties majorities with far less than a majority of the vote. Demand proportional representation.
