I think that we are all underestimating how terrible the economy is going to be next year. A lot of the impact(s) of the horror bill will come on line in the next couple of years.

If you're a white working class person, it's in your interest to remember that any power the state weaponizes against oppressed communities will inevitably turn on you.
Detention, torture, deportation, police violence, surveillance, criminalization of dissent, defunding social infrastructure etc.

It's always people fixing their mouths to say "What about x community? why don't you help them?" then immediately ghosting when you say "Yeah! we should, what are you doing about it?"

Every single time I post the contents of the care packages I make for my neighbors on the street, someone has something to say about the cigarettes I include.
Smoking is bad for your health but you know what's worse for your health? BEING UNHOUSED. It reduces your life expectancy by 40%.

Folks on the streets have every right to food preferences & shelter preferences. I promise you they're experts on their own needs & what it takes to survive out there.

There is a deep desire to punish poor folks & amplify their suffering. Rooted in framing poverty as a moral failure or lack of work ethic. It helps the almost-poor feel further from life on the street than they actually are.

Anyone within the colonial borders of so-called Canada should know 16 year old Shidane Abukar Arone. Tortured, sexually assaulted & murdered by Canadian soldiers on his own homeland while he cried out "Canada!"
While 80 more of them ignored his cries.
THAT is the legacy of anti Somali racism.

In Ontario, the criminalization of Somali communities is used to justify increase police budgets & impunity for killer cops. Child apprehension & family policing, racism within the education & healthcare systems which acutely targets this community - in the name of public safety & counter terrorism.

The dehumanization of Somali people is part of the fabric of the imperial projects of both the US & Canada. Both of whom have an active & ongoing role in the destruction of Somalia & the displacement of it's people. Both of them actively criminalize, scapegoat & target Somali communities.

One of the littles in the Christmas Mutual Aid Drive asked me for an "autistic guitar". I've been kicking my feet giggling since.

Being able bodied is always a temporary privilege. Whether by age, illness, accident, climate catastrophe, or class exploitation- we will all become disabled.
Disability justice is a struggle for liberation that frees and cares for all of us.

Sex work is work & like all labor under a capitalist system of stolen labor it's fraught with exploitation.
All exploitative work is a matter of the body. It's not more dignified/moral to be used & disposed of doing underpaid factory, cleaning, or agricultural work - making billionaires richer.

A carceral relationship with the body is a reflection of white supremacist dominator culture.
We have to reject the return to the nothing-tastes-as-good-as-skinny-feels era of disordered eating, fascist wellness trends & assigning individual blame for systemic conditions.

You can have more than a truce with your body. You cannot hate or punish your body into being "better" (read: skinnier, prettier, stronger, younger, abled.)
A compliance based relationship with your body is a carceral one.
