Thank you to the @mackenzie.art.gallery and to @crystalmowry and Nicolle Nugent and the whole Mackenzie team for hosting me and for all of the care and magic! Thankful to have been able to dream into Black trans worldbuilding in my talk on Thursday evening here at the gallery 1/

Got to hold our book for the first time today! The cover is art by @rahbush7604 and it’s so gorgeous. So thankful! It’s amazing to see these chapters and this book in real life! What a journey it is to make a book- there’s so much behind the scenes. So happy to be launching in Regina this week!

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker This was never about woman's sports

hey real quick, someone ask Gavin Newsom about this tia

I was called an N-word lady on video about the BAFTAS that I did w/ Commotion. They’ve deleted the worst comments, but there’s still one up, will deleted soon calling me transphobic slurs, a “thing” and other violence. Likely bots but hateful people too. How sad for them that this is their life.

The biggest story coming out of this year’s # #BAFTA awards wasn’t about a winner, but about the editing of the broadcast itself. There’s been a lot of discussion online about the #BBC’s decision to broadcast the moment

Got my copy of TOPIA in the mail! I wrote an article about speculative fiction as a tool for radical change and about the possibilities of rooting into ‘hope for a generation’ as Fat Freddy’s Drop sings about.

Watch the brilliant Dr. Syrus Marcus Ware, speaking on abolition. "We can dream bigger, we can get freer. We keep us safe." Thank you. #Toronto #police #corruption #canada #abolition #cdnpoli

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

I have a new chapter in Alex Bulmer and Debbie Patterson’s new book, Rebellious Bodies and Radical Acts: Deaf and Disabked Artists Raise the Curtain on Cripping the Stage (Coach House Press, 2026), and an excerpt from the script for MBL Freedom, my 2022 project about the colonization of Antarctica.

“Police banged their shields in unison and advanced, screaming [“move”]. At intervals, they pepper-sprayed the crowd, fired tear gas, and beat demonstrators with their batons at will. […] This cycle of violence continued for nearly 40 minutes.” williamwilsonphotography.substack.com/p/anti-garda...

Our new collaboration Revolutionary Threads// radical TEXTiles: Audre Lorde, up at Old Town Hall Gallery in Newmarket.

Posting this for history but also posting this for strategy-this is how folks hid and got along the route.

You don’t need a badly “drawn” comic of what an algorithm /ai thinks you do for works and hobbies. You do need water for your grandchildren to not die of thirst. We will need air in Black communities being polluted by the data centres. Plus aren’t you so much more than that?

Picture books are for everyone. This month, I will try to feature some of my favorites each day. #PictureBooksAreForEveryone #BHM #BlackHistoryMonth #AbolitionIsLove @syrusmarcusware.bsky.social and Alanna Fricker

We must end the safe third country agreement with the US

It’s been such a joy to collaborate and make this new textile work with Theodore Walker Robinson for an upcoming show, The Promise We Carry, at Old Town Hall Art Gallery in Newmarket.

ICE are alllll over Harlem right now, 116 & Frederick Douglass, checking IDs and targeting the area’s African community. Multiple people have been detained. Community members are advising folks to carry citizenship documents - or stay away if they are at risk

Clear car lanes, unusable bike lanes, two days after the blizzard (Tuesday aft). It’s a ton of snow & will take time sure, but you have mayoral candidate Brad “I sleep with a bat” Bradford trying to say it’s the other way around to gin up rage & culture war stuff.

Why are they sending Slave Catchers and secret police abroad?

Incredibly, this is an actual photo New York Post used for the guy who attacked Ilhan Omar.

Malcolm X got shot from the first got damn row . I don’t see this as inevitable or inescapable This should be a straight up discussion we have about safety and security if we are ya know actual thinking about people

In case you missed it: a white man threw a bomb at an indigenous Elder on Invasion Day. He has not been charged with terrorism.

I love this song. 😌

Groundswells of change are afoot. Seeds planted by our ancestors are blooming or at least budding and we are getting to worldbuild together.

Come join us for a feee zine making hang at Wildseed Centre for Art & Activism (@wildseedcentre). Trans folks have unique experiences in the classroom and in academic spaces and this zine workshop will help us explore our experiences and just jam about how we’d love to learn.

BBC report at a headline level that Grok will now not make sexually exploitative images any more. An actual reporter comes on and explains that it will do no such thing, and will just make the images invisible in the UK. These are two very, very different things.

www.instagram.com/reel/DTbUw35... If we continue to invalidate the very real and horrific violence that has happened on Turtle Island to Black and Indigenous communities, we will never undo it, dismantle it and all the ways it continues. 1/

We can keep each other safe, free, together. We just need to be smart about organizing in these times, in this digital age of deep fakes and online life. Here’s some thinks to think through- we got this fam.1/

Horrific violence is born here through white supremacy and empire, it's not been imported. It's slave catcher patrols that did door to door searches for escaping Black people.

Learning tonight that: 1. Canada used to have laws against publishing fake news and 2. They were struck down as unconstitutional by the SCC during Ernst Zundel's trial

It is our duty to fight for our freedom.

There is video of the shooting of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis circulating that shows an ICE agent repeatedly shooting her at point blank range while she tries to drive off. There was no obvious threat to any ICE agent.

Resist

BREAKING: Abortion will remain legal in Wyoming after the state Supreme Court struck down laws, including the first U.S. ban on pill abortions.

They can rewrite the government websites all they want, this happened. We watched it happen

Reminder that years ago it was found out that the FBI straight up made up a whole bunch of fake forensic sciences, plural. People have gone to jail and been executed due to literally pseudoscience. Hair forensics, for instance, is totally nonsense. They admitted it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Trying to break the content-mining work brain but I can’t stop thinking about Chappell Roan lauding Brigitte Bardot
