Today, I'll be the queer menace conservatives warned would happen

vt.tiktok.com/ZSy4NvvQD/ Mass shootings are state sponsored terrorism. Great poetry makes you draw new conclusions.

If you're lucky enough to be able bodied, remember this is temporary.

You know, what with the current situation, it would be neat if there was a book about how people leverage martyrdom for political gain. As it happens, I wrote a book just like that. You can read it for free. collections.dartmouth.edu/ebooks/field...

This! Had a motorcyclist try to hit my gf and I in a crosswalk earlier this year and then he yelled at us when we tried to tell him we were crossing legally.

The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that applications have opened for Neighbourhood Placemaking. The application period will remain open until Thursday, Oct. 30. Details: www.halifax.ca/home/news/ap...

@hfxgov.bsky.social Question - Industry and businesses use more water than households. Before an individual conservation order is in place, we should have mandatory work-from-home orders and inspections of businesses. I can't if-yellow-let-mellow at work! I've been conserving at home since June :/

This killed me 🤣😅😭🤣

A #poem to capture a lovely day with friends. It felt good to write from joy instead of pain or rage. I'm thankful I'm allowed to sit on the shore and swim as I please. #Palestinians in #Gaza are often murdered for this. #Israel kills kids #cdnpoli olivandjasper.wordpress.com/2025/07/06/d...

Hey #halisky a keffiyeh stands for the liberation of Palestinians. A swastika (now) stands for Jewish hate. Hope this helps the random person who told me wearing the keffiyeh was basically the same as wearing a swastika. I do not hate Jewish people. I do hate Zionists.

As a Canadian living on stolen land in Mi'kma'ki, traditional and current home of the Mikmaw people, I've lived with this kernel of, 'how can I say anything about Israel-Palestine when I'm a colonizer, too?' but *part* of #Reconciliation is doing everything we can to stop Israel's genocide #cdnpoli

I'm slowly but surely working my way through @simkern.bsky.social's book 'Genocide Bad' and just learned about Israel's 'Hannibal Directive'. I'm floored. What chance do Palestinians have of self determination under a government that plans to shoot it's own citizens. #freepalestine #freeisrael

Your daily reminder that, our government is silently allowing 1 million children to die. Their stomachs are currently eating themselves. Minor wounds are death sentences by malnutrition. If we want to stop this, we must deploy NOW. #cdnpoli #freepalestine #gaza

Until the genocide is ended, Canada needs to deploy troops to protect Palestinians and aid workers. I grew up being taught we're the Peacekeepers, but our dollars funded Israel's war machine. We are responsible for the deaths of 2 million people, including 1 million children. #cdnpoli #canada

Hey, just in case you didn't know, Israel is mass murdering 2 million people through starvation in an open air prison. People ate the grass. There's nothing left. A million children are being starved to death. #cdnpoli #markcarney #freepalestine And, Canadians gave Israel the resources it needed.

Hey #halisky #cdnpoli Is it true that if I didn't vote on or before April 22, I can't vote again until April 28? I didn't get my voter card until after April 22, so I wanted to vote today.

I wrote a poem to try and capture my feelings around the online spaces we've gotten too used to using for free in a world built for premium subscribers only. I hope you like it olivandjasper.wordpress.com/2025/04/24/g... #poetry #halisky #online #society

The #NDP sent me an email today regarding one of the NS candidates. Following is an image of the email and my response. Tldr: Rana Zaman, Tammy Jakeman, and Jessica Wetz all stood up for Palestine, but the NDP didn't stand up for them. #freepalestine #Solidarity #feminism

@ndp.ca Who are leftists supposed to vote for when you're just liberals with more yellow?

@ndp.ca I voted for you every election since I was eligible. You're making it very hard to vote for you this year, because you don't protect sex workers. You don't protect NDP reps who speak out against the genocide of Palestinians, funded in part by Canadians.

Police extend sincere condolences like they didn't murder a loved one. Thank goodness the killers are immediately remorseful. I'm sure that helps the family with their lost son. Pray you never have a mental health episode in #halifax #hrp #halisky

A few people have shared this here today, so I thought I’d post it.

Does #cavetown know Halifax is the second most #transgender city, per capita, in Canada? Or is he always that sweet and do crowds always know all the lyrics? Incredible show 😭🥺 thank you Cavetown. #halisky #Halifax

@gtmowatch.bsky.social I don't wanna follow but I can't look away.

This comes right after the world hit 1.5 degrees Celsius. In the United States, the country most responsible for the cumulative carbon in the atmosphere, we are at the dawn of a massive upswing in electricity demand from data centers, air conditioning and electrification.

@itsparkerlee.bsky.social dearest parker, I need a cute sticker or something with your name because my edition of DROPKICKromance is outdated. Send help. ✨

Not that I am a doom sayer but in the 14 years that I have been doing this! It is the first month where I noticed a significant number of closures vs opens and I just did the math and so far in 2025 we are having 2.5 closures per open where last year was 1.8 opens per 1 close

My new essay comic, Antisemitism in a Time of Genocide, is now up at Le Monde Diplomatique in France. I’ll thread the 8 panels in English here, and link to the French at the end.

I keep getting notifications of new followers. I login to check if they're porn bots and they've disappeared. Bluesky, what's happening? :p Obligatory: #freeallpalestinianprisoners, #freeahmadsaadat

Don't watch the inauguration. Don't go to work, don't buy ANYTHING. Take your kids out of school for a day. Let the world stand still in protest. It is not normal for a rapist, insurrectionist, and 34-time felon becoming president. #blackmonday #resist #worldwide #international #mlkday #bluecrew

I can't express how much I love this tiny creature. My Peanut has surgery 21/01, because lops have poorly designed faces so she needs help clearing an infection. If you feel want to help, she'd appreciate you urging your representatives to demand an end to the genocide in Gaza. #bunsky #bunnies
