Queerwashing homelessness: where LGBTQ2S+ issues are highlighted in ways that seem supportive but actually distracts from the real issues that impact people who are queer.
Moise & Myers want to close Barbara Hall overnight to protect the AIDS & Trans memorials.

Just infuriating behaviour from the Toronto cops. 😡
There’s no way they’re going to fix my problems with Endgame. (Nat and Bucky, they did you dirty.) My trust in the MCU has long since evaporated.
This is so very cool! Hope there’s a broadcast option in Canada.
(I fenced in uni and loved it, but alas, my knees did not.)
The oil sands contamination of water should have made it a no go from the start. 😡
Striking that the Liberals and Conservatives offer the same response to pain at the pump: siphon money out of the public purse instead of Big Oil’s profits.
Me too, Murderbot.
The Church Street Pedestrianization project I’ve been working on the past year is finally public!

AI is owed and controlled by tech billionaires to commodify knowledge and put people out of work
This is no vision for a just economy
Can it stop putting that annoying “Describe what you’d like to draft” box at the top of every gd Word document?!
I have heard it said over and over "why should we care about what's happening 'over there'?" or "They are always fighting over there." Too many people feel like what's happening in Gaza is not our business. 🧵
Almost all of my male friends in uni were named John or Peter. When a new roommate told me I had a message from John, I had to tell him you’ve gotta narrow it down, man.
Good time for progressive members of the Liberal party to take another look at crossing to the NDP, because if this person is in your party, you’re not in a progressive party.
Noooo! Not only did I see Laser Floyd there more than once, I also had my first year astronomy constellation test there. ✨
Oh, that is much more complicated. I’m sorry about that for you.
I’ve got one other multi fandom vid with one I Spy clip that I should probably paper over at some point. I’m glad I was never fond of HP in the first place, so boycotting JKR’s output is not a hardship for me. NG is harder, but I’ve also walked away from his work. Why can’t people not be terrible?!
I'm currently in the process of getting my old vids back up online and the very first vid I ever made was for I Spy. That one is NEVER going back up. (I hate that Cosby's criminality took Alexander Scott away from me. Scotty meant so much to me.)
She needs to come to a Sceptres game next. There are two guys who come to every game wearing Rozanov and Hollander jerseys who get a big cheer when they show up on the jumbotron.
After taking time to connect with the Pretti family and with their consent, we are honored to share that we have created the Alex Pretti Nursing Scholarship.

My new metric for does Ryan Gosling have a new hit movie is did my Yuletide story for The Nice Guys suddenly start getting a bunch of hits. (This also happened with Barbie.)
Also, can we please get a sequel to The Nice Guys?
More reasons not to set foot in the U.S.
My former employer is living down to expectations even worse than usual.
“Lewis, often seen as the farthest left of all five candidates, won decisively on a platform that included expanding universal health care, transitioning off fossil fuels, and publicly funded affordability measures such as government-owned grocery stores.”

He was the vampire in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie.
I got a delegate position from our local Electoral District Association and took the plunge. It was such a great experience! Fantastic to talk to so many friendly, like-minded people.
The stage at the Avi Lewis victory party
Me holding the Avi Lewis Supporter hockey card prop
The Lewis victory party was a blast. El Jones brought the house down with her radical poetry. Just sad I had to leave before Avi arrived.
The results of the NDP leadership vote, showing Avi Lewis with 39,734 or 56% of the vote!
It was electric to be in the room when Avi Lewis’ win was announced!
I’m ecstatic we now have a leader with truly progressive ideas and looking forward to working to get more New Democrats elected.
It’s fascinating seeing how the political sausage is made. And energizing to meet so many people with similar views on politics and society.
Tomorrow morning we find out who the new leader will be. Fingers crossed for my choice, Avi Lewis.
A NDP convention lanyard with campaign buttons for Avi Lewis hanging on it
I’m spending my weekend in Winnipeg at the NDP leadership convention, meeting other good Canadian lefties and voting in the leadership race.
Oh, look. Canada stands yet again with the colonizers and enslavers. 😡
