The President of the United States can call a reporter "piggy" and it's not even a headline any more. That kind of remark used to sink politicians, now it's just a disgusting comment.

The only way I condone "shopping" at any Loblaws establishment, is if you are giving yourself a five finger discount at Galen's expense. And if you see someone helping themselves to shit we have already paid three times over for, no you didn't.

1 in 4 girls experience sexual assault in childhood. 1 in 3 women will experience it at some point in their lives, and some say that number is closer to 1 in 2. Most rapes go unpunished. The men get away with it. This is patriarchy & misogyny. We are not taking it anymore.

Good morning. If you live in Alberta, you should know that today your government will invoke the notwithstanding clause to wage war against transgender Albertans. Not because transgender persons are harmful, but because the UCP is distracting you from their mountain of failures.

Sexual assault, femicide, domestic violence, etc. stories are all over the news these days and it can make us feel really overwhelmed and powerless. Might I suggest signing up to learn bystander intervention? It'll give you concrete tools to feel empowered. And it's free! Join me:

So, UCP MLA Tanya Fir thinks Albertans are mother fuckers. If you are an Albertan, and you have opinions on this, feel free to give her constituency office a call or email to let them know how it makes you feel. Phone 587-392-8850.

I was taking trazadone to help me sleep, and my dr switched me to gabapentin to help with some peri-menopause symptoms as well. 2 days in, I feel so out of whack. Yawning all day, lack of focus, tight muscles. I am hoping it settles down, I go back to the dr in about 3 weeks.

The UCP is widely expected to use the notwithstanding clause once again on Monday. Why? Not just because they can. And not because they have to. They're doing it deliberately, whether out of spite, laziness, or expediency. My latest: ๐
