Right, make an intro post.

I am an AuDHD, leftist, Gen X settler living on the traditional land of the Blackfoot Confederacy on Turtle Island.

I was there, back in the day, when we kicked the Nazi skin heads out of punk gigs.

At the beginning of the pandemic I found my great grandmothers
Was just on the phone with a friend who is sobbing because of #UCP cruelty to #AISH recipients,
According to them, the #UCP is going to withdraw the Canadian Disability Benefit from their accounts unless they can get their paperwork in by February, much early then originally

If you’re wondering why some Covid activists still seem to be in the "emergency phase," please remember that for many, it truly is still an emergency - some are disabled, unhoused, grieving loved ones, or facing abuse for continuing to mask.

Before judging, take a moment to check your privilege

Anti-Indian hatred in Canada is skyrocketing and a lot of the complaints people have about jobs and businesses aren't actually the fault of the workers, but instead the corporate owners. Stop licking boots and start punching up #canada #cdnpoli #timhortons #canadian #frankdomenic🍁

Tomorrow, from 9 AM to noon, St. Albert students are organizing a walk-out and a march in support of Teachers.

As a dad, former Teacher and education minister, I support this. Missing school is warranted in support of social justice and civil right.

I’ll join them.

Do we have a list of major UCP donors so we can make their lives miserable?
Maybe hold a “Take Your Kids to See Who is Stealing Their Future Day’ is needed.
Take your kids through private schools so they know what is being withheld by a bunch of bullies with rich friends.

Failure to return the shopping cart to one of the cart returns if you are able is a sign of someone who does not value the social contract.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Good evening. I'll get right to it.

You all need to be fucking mad as hell right now.

Because what Danielle Smith’s government is threatening to do in Alberta isn’t a negotiation tactic. It’s a constitutional crisis in the making.

A reminder that change.org petitions have zero impact on politicians in Canada (or anywhere really). It's basically performative engagement.

Only www.ourcommons.ca petitions have any weight whatsoever.

Every time someone talks about “curing” autism, what they’re really saying is:

That autism is a disease
That we are broken
That we shouldn’t exist

It’s not just wrong - it’s dehumanising

We’re not a problem to be solved.
We’re real, valid humans

Why is that so hard to see?

I am so tired of listening to people complain about how shitty things are getting.

Some of us have spent our lives trying to keep that from happening.

And you laughed at us, ignored us, bullied us.

So I don’t give a flying f-k about your existential crisis of feeling all alone.

Exactly this! This is the road to social disaster the #UCP would have us follow.

Don't abandon our kids to the nightmare this anti-public education dreck brought on in the US! #NoMAGAinCanada #ElbowsUp #cndpoli #abpoli #ableg #abed
This is what the Alberta Teachers Association is on strike to prevent.

Please stop using paternal age when you are busting people for accusing mothers of being the reason for autism.
It’s not the flex you think it is.
It still makes autism a defect that needs to be solved and not just another way of experiencing the world.
WE ARE NOT BROKEN!!!

What if we covered every big parking lot and put solar panels on top.
How many lives, human and animal could be saved from sun baked vehicles, how much easier to walk to the store in winter.
There are so many places we could put solar panels that isn’t prime farm land,

Been going to a lot of rallies/protests these days.

Crowds are full of neurodivergent people.

There is a reason why so many wealthy men want to cure autism.

And it ain’t because they care so much about kids.
