That passport is the key to my travel and to my diasporic roots
Joy, connection, exploration
It’s the cost of being free and belonging both at once
#Diaspora #WomenInPublic #FéminismeNumérique #Canada
There’s a difference between being processed and being alive
The first one takes a number
The second takes a body #WomenInPublic #FéminismeNumérique #Bureaucratie #Canada
Service Canada: passports, pensions, immigration
Today I’m the application
Je suis en traitement moi aussi
Being processed, comme tout le monde ici

It’s joy as resistance.
Refusal as healing.
Cette chanson, c’est la voix du refus tranquille et de la joie incarnée.
That gorgeous Frazee Ford voice carrying the words that matter most.
I’m done.

My ideas live in the body that writes them
They’re not separate. They’re both me
Corporeal feminism. Whole, visible, unapologetic

I still use my initials. A trace of armour
But I add my photo now so you can see it’s me
The woman behind the words
#RightToSeethe #WomenInPublic #FéminismeNumérique #AgeAndPower
They hear heat when I mean thought
They confuse fluency with invitation
A woman with ideas, looking to talk about ideas
Incomprehensible
A talking dog 🐕🎙️

“You’re so articulate and so hot baby.”
Ah yes. The academic compliment and mating-call hybrid, and all over my Bluesky DMs
I speak therefore I am a turn-on
The talking dog just learned Latin 🐕🔥🎙️

I did the work
Therapy, rebuilding, writing, healing
Now I have my platform as a lawyer, a university teacher, a woman who has earned her own microphone
I’m a fucking talking dog and I’ve got things to say 🐕🎙️

Patriarchy’s like old software — you update the interface, but the bugs stay the same.
Less “get back in the kitchen,” more “wow you’re so articulate 😉.”
It’s still about taking up your time, your calm, your attention.

Je pensais que Bluesky serait plus chill que Twitter & moins de sexisme fatigant.
Ben non. Fewer trolls maybe, but way more “hey girl” DMs.
Progress? #Beurk
#FéminismeNumérique #WomenInPublic
Other women on Bluesky: I thought this was going to be a little safer than Twitter, maybe with less obnoxious sexism.
Welp — fewer crude comments, but a lot more “Hey girl” energy in the DMs. Progress? #Yuck
