Talk to people about your passion projects - listen to them talk about yours. Capitalism and scarcity mindsets constantly limit the boundaries of what we believe is possible, and it's so important reject boundary-making. You are world-making.

I need folks to read this short story today. I think it does a better job than a non-fiction essay harangue of highlighting the real danger of ignoring Indigenous Ppls with alm this 51st state talk and tariff warring. Especially in area with NO TREATY.
I'll repost this tomorrow, but it's a short story I wrote (and finally finished) about how Canada could stumble into annexation by taking a drill-baby-drill approach and stomping over First Nations: rjago.substack.com/p/unceded

If you're new here, I will never accept that settler colonial nations have any right to exist. Decolonization means Indigenous land and life-ways back, no cops, no landlords, and probably other stuff that might twist up your ginch so beware.

Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians crossed the Netzarim Corridor to return to North Gaza after 15 months of genocide. “It’s the joy of return. We had thought we wouldn’t return, like our ancestors.”

Neo Nazis in St. Albert? Quelle surprise. St. Albert was originally a Métis community, but Métis were displaced by white settlers as a part of propping up the white supremacist settler colonial state. This shit is baked in folks, Canada is not superior to the U.S. I fear.
