Magic is home and her surgery was a success!

I still need commission work as the bill ended up being close to $700 and my paycheck for this week isn't that good

Anyway I hadn't heard anyone talking about this, so I guess I'm gonna talk about it. Spread the word if you're thinking about doing an nsfw KS project, Stripe apparently might pull your funding at literally any step of the process, with zero warning!

Every one deserves to eat. It’s that simple.

important reminder: food banks usually prefer money to direct food donations because they can buy at discounted rates

check with your local food bank to be sure but now is the time to help out

I really gave this the business, and so can you!

A lot of the questions are VERY "hey, person who *loves* AI, how can we, a government who *loves* AI, make sure companies who *also love* AI come to Canada to do trickledown economics?"

If you are employed & doing pretty fine right now, set aside some money from each paycheck to dedicate to mutual aid asks. Even just $20.

Shit is really bad, the social safety net is being shredded, & truly TRULY all we have is each other right now.

wake up, hosers

new petition just dropped

e-6818 is calling to strengthen the Canada Health Act to stop provinces from privatizing health care and to force provinces to account for how and where they used health transfer money

If you’re like most Canadians, you don’t know that all of your parcels get delivered by Canada Post if you live in rural Canada. The big couriers don’t go there. They drop them off at the post office and letter carriers take them the rest of the way. Ending home delivery cuts them off.

I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service.

Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

Me, trying to sleep: Why does it feel so gross? It can’t be That hot tonight.

Me, seeing that the humidity is at 93%: Oh. Okay. I get it now.

Happy Labor Day to all who celebrate, and a miserable Labor Day to those who don't, because people who hate labor don't deserve nice things.

The deadly toll on journalists in the Gaza war With foreign media barred, Palestinians have reported alone, facing the ‘most deliberate effort to kill and silence’ them ever

The Guardian has today printed the names, and where possible, images, of all the media workers killed in Gaza, as part of an international day of action involving more than 150 media organisations.

The nuclear family is a modern invention grounded in modern patriarchal and capitalist power structure, but that doesn't stop fascists from pretending it's the "natural" power model and social structure that should be copied at every level of society.

Because some people haven't heard it yet: PAYPAL IS NOT A BANK, DO NOT LEAVE MORE THAN A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS SITTING IN YOUR ACCOUNT AT ANY TIME. MOVE IT TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY.

Paypal can and will close your account and steal all your money without warning. And have done MANY times.

I’m a monthly sustainer of Crips for eSIMs for Gaza — please join me if you can. This material support makes a difference!

a first step to organizing people to do anything right now is just bringing people together for anything—to vent. to eat together. to make art.

to remind people we have each other. to ask what we can do together. to keep the despair at bay.

There's a really persistent strain of thought that holds that men are ontologically evil and dangerous (whether it glorifies that danger, or deplores it) and it is fundamentally reactionary. It's the logic of the TERF and the manosphere grifter, and it is antithetical toward the idea of change
