As a U.S. citizen (which I feel ashamed to be these days) who lives less than 10 mins from the Canadian border and whose city economy is largely funded by our Canadian neighbors, I fully support this! (I only wish I could belong to that side of the border, instead of linked to the regime next-door.)

If not in #usa as an American go protest at your embassy!

Tomorrow is a national protest day in the US. Protests are organized at the White House and state capitals, but if you can’t find an event or time that works for you, go when and where you can. If there is no event organizer, you are the event organizer. Announce it below,👇 hashtags #3E #USProtests

Oh…holy shit! I just witnessed a group of four idiots, mid 30s, at a Starbucks slamming “DEI hiring.” Three of the four were loud and forceful throwing in words like “woke.” The forth guy literally said “I hear about that! But I never heard what DEI stands for.”

NONE OF THE OTHER THREE KNEW EITHER!

Here’s some “Breaking News” that isn’t breaking to anyone except poorly educated #MAGAts & other MAGA adjacent morons. Politico reports convicted felon Tяump and Musk are following the Project2025 playbook to the letter, as informed and intelligent Democrats warned.

Despite my high student loan debt, I'm thankful to be getting my masters at a private college. Its emphasis is on social justice & environmental justice, with all of our courses being taught through that lens, & no faculty censoring their views or words on all of the horrors occurring right now.

So, experiencing thundersnow today was pretty cool. It would be cooler, however, if it wasn't another symptom of severe Climate Change.

This provides a simple overview of some of the things DEI/DEIA actually represents. Please share with those who may not know much about DEIA, because knowledge is power; when we know better, we can choose to do better. ❣️

And so it begins again - US Reps. Thom Tiffany and Lauren Boebert have reintroduced their bill to strip gray wolves of federal protections.

The bill, renamed the "Pet and Livestock Protection Act", relies on misinformation and fear in its attempt to delist wolves and prevent judicial review.
Republicans in Congress introduce bill to remove gray wolf from federal protections
Republicans in Congress including Rep. Tom Tiffany of Wisconsin on Friday introduced a bill to delist the gray wolf in Wisconsin and 43 other states.

With my pups, my best friends, being 13 and 14 years old and just recently really starting to show their age, this is a poignant reminder. 💓

It is perfectly acceptable to not have it all together right now, in case you were wondering. 👍

Hoping this will make its way to spaces where people may actually not understand D.E.I.

Open, confidential, & free. Highly recommend if you could use some support or a safe space to share/vent to a caring, empathetic community who *gets it*. I facilitated tonight & our group was big. If our world has you devastated, outraged, or filled with a sense of impending doom, you are not alone.
