Hi, I know there's a lot to doomscroll right now, but sleep deprivation makes everything harder, including the big and small actions you can do to help people in Minneapolis. A donation to a local mutual aid organization is a quick and easy way to help.

After ICE agents shot people in Minneapolis tonight, a crowd faced them down and eventually chased them away, despite federal mercenaries and police shooting a tremendous amount of tear gas.
ICE agents abandoned vehicles in the area, containing IDs, paperwork, license plates, and operational plans.

Quite frankly, it’s outrageous that Mark Carney is cutting Statistics Canada. If he was Stephen Harper or Pierre Poilievre, I feel like this would be getting a lot more backlash.
Carney of all people should know the importance of high-quality data and information about the country.

So higher oil production than ever last year in #Alberta. Yet the sector cut 10,000 jobs. How is oil going to save us? All I see is big business trying to get workers to do more work for less pay, and then telling us to be grateful for the work.

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

Hand dryers aren’t always accessible for mobility users. A hand dryer that isn’t as strong as me blowing on my hands, isn’t drying anything. Now I have to try not to slip off my mobility device with wet hands. Which can lead to falls.

Gentle reminder that should a general strike happen, it’s crucial to plan and establish robust networks of community care.
There will be people, especially within the disability community, who can’t participate.
Who have needs that must be met.
Let’s make sure we figure out how to include them!

Being disabled is a minority group you can join at any time… yet most believe they’re the exception.
They think it’ll never happen to them.
That they will “try harder” their way out of it.
That we could get better if we “really wanted to”.
Health is temporary. Disability is not a moral failing.
