If you’re a survivor of sexual abuse… it is a tough time to be online. It’s ok to take breaks. It’s ok to cry. It’s ok to rage. Whatever you’re feeling is valid. I like to remind myself what Gisele Pelicot said… “shame must change sides” We’re going to make the abusers feel shame now.

Look, in 2024, the Chief Medical Health Officer for Northern Health only made $341,039 in 2024, excl expenses. You can't seriously expect a CMOH to track <<checks notes>> measles for that pittance, can you? /s

I have the most wonderful story for you all today: baby alligator spotted in Charles River, then immediately rescued by local reptile enthusiast

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

This was my high school yearbook quote.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

Musk: i reada da frankenstein Mary Shelley: motherfucker Shelley: you better not get this one wrong Shelley: i literally could not spell it out any more obviously Mus: itsa about how meddling in da domain ova god is good! Shelley: MOTHER Shelley: FUCKER

Lest we forget. #Canada.

Ugh. He sucks so hard.

Through the Nichiren sect the 'hemorrhoid god' reached a large audience (he remained popular until the development of modern medicines). In Kyōto 'Shūzan Jiun Reijin' found a home at Enjō-ji (圓成寺), a temple founded in 1630 by Nichinin (日任), 21st abbot of Honman-ji (本満寺).

That next part is coming very soon, and the public is primed to accept it. I'd bet trans women have the highest unemployment rate in the US right now. We've already disappeared from many social spaces and no one cares - they won't notice or care when we're disappeared for good.

If you gave me a billion dollars, I would become the most popular person for quite a long time, because every struggling mom I know would get a bunch of money. I would pay for people's fun and for their worries to go away. I'd help people. He has an empire, but it's eternally empty. No love or hope.

My boys just hangin out on the bird couch!

Nothing is sacred.

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.

I’m honestly shocked that this story from @globalnews.ca has flown under the radar. Confirmation that Amit Shah, the second-most powerful man in the Indian government, was directly involved in the assassinations on Canadian soil. globalnews.ca/news/1151469...

OVER A MILLION USERS DISCUSS SUICIDE WITH CHATGPT EVERY *WEEK* what the fuck are we DOING here

What happened, @nytimes.com? Why not stand by your original headline? Because it’s absolutely an accurate representation of this trash conversation. To publish this at all should be a fireable offense - but to publish it as women’s rights are being decimated is deeply immoral, bordering on evil

It's the weekend, baby

On Nov. 7, 1885, CPR financier Donald Smith hammered in the final spike on the Canadian Pacific Railway at Craigellachie, British Columbia. The moment was captured in a photo, but there is more to the story, including multiple last spikes. This is the story. 🧵 1/12

not even the pretense of caring about democracy as a practice

Evil man.

A B.C. Supreme Court ruling on Aboriginal title being granted to the Cowichan Tribes in B.C. has led to a lot of anger and misinterpretation in the province. To clear up the facts, APTN News spoke with an expert on Aboriginal title cases.

I have been saying this for YEARS

Haha yesss. Japanese copyright law doesn't fuck around. Since I get challenged on this a lot: U.S. and Japan are both Berne Convention signatories, meaning the copyright is recognized between countries. They CAN go after American companies. And they are. And I love it. variety.com/2025/digital...

EVERYONE CHECK OUT FBQ THIS NEXT WEEK AND SUPPORT OUR WESTERN ALASKA RELATIVES NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH. CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS MORE HIGHLY. MAYBE.

hi! tomorrow is my birthday. i’ve written a children’s book about how land is indigenous land and a young readers book about the history of boarding schools. now i’m writing a YA indigenous solarpunk novel about 100 years after #landback for my birthday, i’m asking for help doing that.

literally the hottest thing u can do is be kind and sweet to people

Nothing to this one but venting: The transphobes are the most cowardly of bigots, people so terrified of what's in their pants & what's not in their hearts that they make it a calling to terrorize those who've done the work to know who they are. Mice have more courage, slugs have more grace.

this part

libs on this site care more about the sandwich guy than trans people losing their passports

me at the end of class: here's a little speculative exercises; imagine you wake up from cryosleep in 2085. what's the kind of tech-society r/ship you'd like to see around you? students: no AI I honestly think students' views are missing from the 'should AI be integrated in classrooms' discussion

It's just such a transparent con. But then again, what isn't?

Ya'll don't give indie comic creators enough credit. Do you know how much effort it takes to illustrate a single picture? Apply that several times over to one comic page. Now apply that to one person drawing all the comic pages. Yeah. It's a lot of work.

Can we talk about what a breath of fresh air it is to hear from a politician who genuinely seems like he wants the job because he wants to be of service to the public??

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Mamdani just explicitly shouted out the trans community in his victory speech in saying that NYC stands with them

Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

THEY'RE PLAYING NOT LIKE US AT THE MAMDANI CAMPAIGN RALLY

FOLKS, WE'RE GONNA LIB OUT AND WE'RE GONNA LIB OUT VERY STRONGLY

This has been an interesting day.

Reconciliation? Carney's never heard of it.

we all know this classic way

thank you for the outpouring of support! those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.

AAAAA

How sad. Anyway!
