The “war on women” is not hyperbole. The global right fascist movement requires women to be controlled and secondary. If you do not understand the Conservative movement in Canada is waging this war on this front, pay attention.

Those regulatory measures prevent illness and death (in case that wasn’t clear).

Obliterating that safety guardrail will have VERY real consequences.

I live in Pierre Polievre's riding. The temptation to vandalize election signs is a little overwhelming.

Wab Kinew for the win! Ontario voted in Doug Ford - guess I'm moving to Manitoba.

Only 43% of Ontarians voted in the last provincial election. Please please please vote. The people who didn't vote in the US federal election contributed significantly to Trump's victory.

The mortality rate of H5N1 influenza in cats ranges from 50-100%.

Cats, like birds, have high levels of the specific receptor this flu strain attaches to: α2,3-linked (SAα2,3) sialic acid receptor.

The biggest source of H5N1 in cats? Raw pet food.

Bird people are the biggest nerds- someone labeled their trip report to see Willow Ptarmigan "Ptarmageddon" and I'm going to laugh about that all day!

“There is no good option” isn’t an excuse not to vote at the end of February in Ontario and then in the Federal election

Not voting becomes a vote for the worst option

We can’t afford your apathy
