BREAKING: Google Earth updated their images of Gaza. Compare.

Being against this is not “antisemitic” or “pro-terrorist”. It’s pro-human.

ANYWAY while I was digging in the front yard to plant some peonies yesterday I accidentally dug up a long-broken urn and a bag of ashes, and while I reburied them (with many apologies) I’m pretty sure this is the start of a horror movie and I’m haunted forever so it was nice knowing you.

People who cheer on inhumane treatment of refugees/immigrants are abhorrent. Lowest of the low. The idea that those who’ve fled for their lives from country’s that are abusive/cruel, and that they’re all criminals, is a ridiculous construct to permit vile behaviour.

Fed up with humanity right now.

Study begun pre-COVID finds remote work increased sleep by 1/2 hr/night, decreased commute by 4.5 hr/week replaced with work, family & leisure and led to healthier eating. Remote and hybrid employees report higher job satisfaction and well-being. farmingdale-observer.com/2025/05/16/s...

As the Big Grocery chains in Canada raise prices on the excuse of US tariffs maybe they could dip into those profits instead!

The biggest achievement in gaslighting ever attained is convincing women standing up for themselves or other women is somehow to the detriment of all men. Insisting on women’s protection & safety is not in any way taking away from men. It is holding bad men accountable.

The right wing nut jobs are at it again. If this nonsense continues and escalates, our government needs to do something about it all.

We can't allow these people to control things by force and threat.

Sorry you don't agree dude, but that doesn't mean you light someone's house on fire.

When a state forces a brain-dead pregnant woman to remain on life support against her family's wishes, it abandons its humanity. This is not pro-life; it's a profound violation of human rights. The trauma of continuing a pregnancy under such circumstances is unimaginable.

Health update- TW: weight loss

It’s been a year and I am down 70lbs as of this morning from 273.1lbs.

My mantra is still progress over perfection because chronic illness makes weight almost impossible at times.

I don’t do any cardio, I watch my heart rate and HRV like hawk- it’s work.

I hate it here sometimes. Local Con MP Scott Anderson is supporting this anti science nonsense that could be increasing the risk of avian flu mutation.

The owners didn’t want to follow bio security protocols because it was too hard but now are grifting and whining.

Those poor birds.

I was refused for years despite needing blood & iron transfusions on a regular basis.

The doctors treated me as a walking womb, incapable of deciding that my health was worth more than my hypothetical future husband & child.

Finally had hysterectomy at 24. Haven’t regretted it once.
