A leaked report shows that Vancouver's mayor wants to make Vancouver a 'sunset community' where Native people aren't welcome. He has a plan to deport Indigenous residents of the city to their "home communities". www.bcafn.ca/news/regiona...

There is a statistically significant amount of articles on queer occultism in Montreal and I'm realizing I moved to the wrong city.

New Research Alert! The report “Trans digital rights: Improving data visibility, privacy and belonging for gender-diverse communities” ✨ 💫🌈 Our research asks: If we could reimagine digital rights that center the needs of gender-diverse communities, what would they look like?

@yorkuniversity.bsky.social President Rhonda Lenton made nearly half a million dollars in 2023 and we can only assume it was more in 2024, but apparently they don't have enough money for Indigenous studies. Withholding indigenous education on stolen land is peak colonizer behaviour.

Gotta love a tangent spiral into false time when I should be doing any of the many tasks I have to do. Shout out to Andromeda, our closest major galaxy at ~250 million light years away.

The same administration that refuses to recognize trans people’s names and genders is now banning the AP for not using the name they gave a body of water. The hypocrisy writes itself. 🏳️‍🌈🎓 🏳️‍⚧️

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income
This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

LifeLabs tried so hard to make blood collection accessible for autistic folks and then made a phone call the only way to book those appointments. So I'm willing to bet they didn't consult with any of us before making that absurd decision. 🙄
