Just a note that I do not give money to people who I don’t know. I’ve been burnt by scammers in the past before, so it’s just not worth the risk for me. Sorry for any inconvenience. I’m also a single mom struggling to keep my own family clothed, fed and sheltered. Thanks for understanding.

Abstenions appeared to have been:
NDP MP Gord Johns
NDP MP Lori Idlout
Conservative MP Shannon Stubbs
Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux
All other opposition MPs voted against, except for Green Party Leader Elizabeth May, who voted “yea” alongside the Liberals.

🚨 NO ELECTION 🚨
The vote barely squeaked by thanks to abstentions.
Final tally: 170 yeas, 168 nays

Could we be getting an ELECTION for Christmas?
Well, the Liberals still need one more “yes” vote to avoid that (or two abstentions), making the vote that’s taking place in two hours a real nail-biter.
Here’s where things stand right now, with a little help from @supriya.bsky.social:

Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"

Saw this little guy last night with the Salish Sea School in Anacortes, WA as part of their free community dock walk I volunteer as an interpreter for.
We can tell it is a giant pacific octopus from the single line of chromatophores on each arm.

So I was reading about an NFL player who just had a season ending injury called a Lisfranc sprain and it sounds eerily similar to my injury. Apparently can only be diagnosed properly with a weight bearing X-ray, which I’m pretty sure I didn’t have.
Apparently they’re the worst kind of sprain ever.
