How can global public health teachers talk about the difference between charity (saviorism) and solidarity (justice)?
Evelyn Rogan, a young student, did this beautiful art that we hope can be helpful for teachers & students

Today, feminist organizations across 🇨🇦 are launching a new campaign: Women for Trans Rights.
This campaign rejects attacks on trans people under the guise of protecting women and putting the focus back where it belongs: patriarchy and government inaction.

This may be the most powerful 85 seconds I've ever seen on television.
The math doesn't lie.
Danielle Smith spent $17 million on "Alberta is Calling" to recruit new residents. But spent $0 on the infrastructure to support them.
Now that the bills are due and the services are failing, she’s pointing the finger at the very people she invited.

A gallery of flying swans featuring both tundra and trumpeter swans demonstrating how difficult they are to ID.
Aproposal to open a 🇨🇦 hunting season on Tundra Swans-they look, mingle with look-alike Trumpeter Swans (special concern). Swans are very difficult to ID in flight & trumpeters will be killed -reversing conservation successes.

Secretary Kennedy Appoints New Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee to Advance Fight Against Autism
Calling ALL Autistic people and allies to join us in the fight against Kennedy and his ignorant BS. 😡
⚔️Autistic people: Joining the war on Autism… on the side of Autism. ⚔️
I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.
If you don’t follow @theconsciouslee.bsky.social he is great. I think more active on Instagram but he is always coming in with great insight.
Just don’t
Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds playing CSNY’s “Ohio” with a little “Killing in the Name Of” thrown in.
This is going the wrong fucking direction. We are fucked if this is where we’re at in 2026 with environmental justice.
if you somehow missed this thread—uh, don’t miss it
A few months ago, ICE hired me
I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable
And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

No, autistics do not “lack empathy”: “Where researchers had assumed impairment, they found autistic people applying moral principles more consistently—even to strangers, even when costly.” By Ludmila Pradlova.

The Alberta Healthcare Disaster, with Dr. Paul Parks
Parks' unfiltered description of AB's health system catastrophe is unsettling.
Who's responsible? @abdaniellesmith.
Share this interview. Every Albertan should watch it.

Amanda Marcotte: The Minnesota daycare hoax is being used by Trump and MAGA to justify harassing Somali-Americans. It also reveals how much MAGA is fueled by their sexual weirdness. Why hoax daycares? Because of their sick ideas about sex and gender. An analysis. www.salon.com/2026/01/05/m...
At any point over the last decade do you think you could walk up to a Trump supporter at a MAGA rally and ask them to name the President of Venezuela and get a correct answer?
“Why do you think conservative pundits and media are so obsessed with ‘debate me’ bullshit to begin with? It’s because whatever we argue is meaningless: simply by entering the ring, we’ve conceded that long-standing freedoms are now up for debate… those aren’t debates—they’re humiliation rituals.”
“Replacing” safe consumption and overdose prevention sites with treatment, it’s like cardiologists throwing out CPR in favour of blood pressure-lowering medication.

“If it were really that bad you would be in hospital!”
People say this to disabled folks all the time
They don’t realize that if we went to the hospital for every flare, we would live there
They don’t realize how dangerous hospital settings can be
They don’t realize how little help is available
The fuckery just keeps topping itself. Horrifying.
"The right wing aesthetic project is to flood the zone... with bullshit... to erode intellectual foundations for resisting political cruelty.
"Our most effective weapons against AI, & the right wing... may not be strikes, boycotts... They might be replying “cringe" & “this looks like shit”
