Good morning! This is my first post of Bluesky. I am officially getting off twitter. I hate what Musk has done to that platform.
Thanks Judy
Lovely

I drew this surreptitiously on a train headed to BC 🇨🇦. The unwitting model was one of my mates from the @mcmasteruniversity.bsky.social choir. We gave a series of concerts across Western Canada 🇨🇦. I took my sketch book along to record the personalities of as many of my colleagues as possible.

He ought to be ashamed of himself.
This man wants to spank Alberta teenagers who ask questions of politicians.

Young people like Evan are not tomorrow’s leaders; they are tomorrow’s leaders TODAY!!!
Disgusting. Thank goodness for engaged young people like Evan, maybe they will be able to do better.

Absolutely disgusting.
How dare these pig ignorant bullies use my tax dollars to abuse young citizens this way?
Vile.
This is who the UCP are.
This is who TBA are.
This is who the separatists are.
Albertans, wake up. We are better than this. Show some decency. Kick these pigs to the curb already

This shows how out of touch the UCP is. What a way to turn off the next generation of voters in this province. I can wait for Evan to run for a seat against a UCP incumbent and destroy that person.
Those morons just made Evan the most famous kid in AB. Well played, McAllister.

It's not over, folks. If you want Democrats to stand up for healthcare AND snap benefits, reach out to them and tell them what you need. Call the eight turncoats. Call your representative. Email them. Blast them on social media.
We still have time to get through to them.

Is the shutdown over? Not yet.
Tonight’s vote was only step 1 of 5.
There’s still another 60-vote hurdle, amendments, AND then the House.
Pressure matters right now—especially on Kaine, Rosen, Hassan, Shaheen.
Stay loud.

Yes! It is time for a change in leadership of the Democratic Party in the Senate.
Senate Majority Leader Elizabeth Warren has a nice ring to it, right???

This will come back to bite the Dems.
Democrats were overwhelmingly united on their shutdown demands.
Americans understood that Trump and Republicans were to blame.
Voters made it known last Tuesday that they'll elect leaders who stand up to Trump.
Democrats held the cards — and folded for no reason.

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.
What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.
We're paying for the torture of children.
I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

I have some thoughts about women - of all ages - leaving evangelicalism. 🧵
First of all, of course they are! I wrote about how women have spent the last two decades (and really longer) calling out alienating, unbiblical evangelical rhetoric and politics. 1/x www.baylorpress.com/978148131893...
