Turns Out +++ Men Still Need Help Understanding How the Fucking Patriarchy Is to Blame in 2026 This newsletter post is the author's attempt at reclaiming her time even further after another unproductive discussion with men about the patriarchy with which they remain complicit, as she continues ...

"As I logged off [from Zoom], all I could think was that my beloved communities of colour are never getting free until men are finally willing to reckon with their complicity with the patriarchy, so this is my attempt at illuminating that, on the off chance that any men are willing to listen."🫂

Video of woman collapsing in ER waiting room played at Ontario inquest into her sepsis death | CBC

Heather Winterstein died after ER triage staff ignored signs of sepsis and denied her care.

They labelled her a homeless addict and sent her home without basic tests.

Bias, bigotry, misogyny and racism have no place in healthcare…. Yet all too often they determine who lives & who dies:

Greenpeace USA calls for the removal of Trump for war crimes - Greenpeace Greenpeace USA activists took a banner to the White House calling for the immediate removal of President Donald Trump for war crimes.

Greenpeace USA calls for the removal of Trump for war crimes: "All of us have a responsibility to ensure our members of congress understand that their constituents expect them to back this action and prevent millions of deaths from happening in our name."

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

The people of Iran pose no threat to the United States — this has always been an oil war at the behest of the 1%.

Now, Trump is threatening genocide over it.

Where is the leadership from Carney to denounce this illegal war? Where is the pressure from provincial leaders?

Canada is spending billions on LNG projects that will lock us into higher prices & delay real climate solutions.

Apr 13-18 people across Canada are speaking up:

✅ Invest in clean energy that benefits communities

Just a coincidence, surely.

Also a coincidence, surely, that the same guy is on the board of TCEnergy with some of Trump's nearest and dearest.

TCEnergy is backing Fortress Am-Can, and it would benefit them greatly.
