Controversially, I like animals, and food. Also biking about and other human-powered movement.

Now, what you hear is not a test, I'm rappin' to the beat
And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
You see, I am Wonder Mike, and I'd like to say hello
To the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
And me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
You see, I am Wonder Mike, and I'd like to say hello
To the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
When I’m alone in my room,
Sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind,
I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life,
I see I need love
Sometimes I stare at the wall
And in the back of my mind,
I hear my conscience call
Telling me I need a girl who’s as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life,
I see I need love
Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started
I called you up, but you weren't there, and I was broken-hearted
Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demanding
Opened the door up and to my surprise, there, you were standing

Rondellus's "Sabattum" album works very well for this. Most people won't know they're listening to Black Sabbath in Latin in medieval style.

So, if a doctor sexually assaulted somebody, but *not at work* they'd get to keep their license? I...don't think that's ok. I doubt anyone does. They don't think *anything* through, do they?

What this government is doing is wrong, and people are hurting. To every trans young person and every family feeling targeted right now: you are seen, you are valued, and you belong in Alberta.
We will keep fighting for your dignity, your safety, and your future.

Wtf is up with people signing off their emails with "Warmly"? Just say "Thanks," "Sincerely," or nothing at all.
Have a blessed day,

Trans rights are human rights, even if Alberta is using the notwithstanding clause yet again to try and claim otherwise.

Prometheus stole fire from the gods to give to the people.
Techbros, through AI, are stealing fire from the people and using it to warm themselves.
What precious fucking irony that is.

Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,
And towards our distant rest we began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame, all blind;
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,
And towards our distant rest we began to trudge.
