Fell into watching 1923 from a trip to family. Not my usual, but I gotta say the line 'Canada is worse' is a banger.

Someone: Tries to have a spontaneous intimate conversation.

Me: No three day notice? No agenda items? I have no notes and I don't understand why you expect a clear and coherent response.

You can (and should) oppose political violence without doing all this, you know.

I don't think assassination is right. More because it doesn't work than a moral imperative.

A note on Capital Pride being cancelled. Last year Queers 4 Palestine encouraged a pro-Palestinian stance and because Jewish ppl felt left out neither the mayor or anyone from the Liberal party showed up. So this position the mayor is taking is disingenuous

I missed the Ottawa Pride weekend but following up on all the news and comments, I am appalled at the amount of queer people lulled into such complacency that they talk about voting conservative to get back at the left. The ignorance and naivety is straight up scary.

if corporate pride is your only source of queer joy you are starving yourself for no reason & you deserve better

You are not being respectable enough for the people who are already trying to take away your rights!

If you want to see how many people think being queer is about one corporate parade a year please see the Ottawa reddit, sigh.

“His real plan was to be Pierre Poilievre—without the drama. To build alliances with Trump and Netanyahu abroad while failing the working class at home. That’s the agenda that has prevailed so far, leading him into conflict with many of the voters who put him in office.”
Carney promised resistance and delivered retreat
Carney became prime minister on the backs of progressive voters desperate to stop a Trump–Poilievre axis from sweeping North America. But so far, his policies have served mainly to placate Trump and v...

S Baum covering the latest survey on trans life and health over at Erin Reed's place.

Notably, Hormone therapy made 84% a lot more satisfied with their lives, 14% somewhat more satisfied.

Surgery made 88% of ppl a lot more satisfied and 9% somewhat more.

That's:
Hormones: +98
Surgery: +97
Largest Trans Survey Ever: Top Reason Trans People Stop Transitioning Is Transphobia
“In almost every single case, the reason was anti-trans discrimination in the form of pressure to ‘detransition’ from one’s family, friends, or community.”

Being a trans person closing on 10 years of HRT is weird. In a way, to the world I'm done. I could stealth and disappear. I could turn in my ticket and socially just be done. But that is reviling to me. I benefited from some of the best years. I owe my younger siblings visibility and leadership.
