In her March 6 chat, @hcrichardson.bsky.social spoke about how the use of public lands impacts the health of a democracy in a way that aligns with my thinking on current Nova Scotia politics and cuts in rural NS. Relevant conversation is about 90 seconds in. 🧵1/4 www.youtube.com/live/I70KDCb...
I’m not going to look. My banking app reminds me I’m going to starve in retirement too often as it is.
Don’t be too jealous, it seems adding a second dog added an exponentiel amount of poop
My brilliant plan was to “sleep in” by a half hour this morning to ease the change, but apparently my pets now read clocks.

Women are not liberated by more patriarchal violence.
Tarrio is, quite literally, a pardoned terrorist.
They'll just get them online, their parents medicine cabinet, or friends. They aren't going to stop access, only safe access to hormones. Trans people have been getting access to hormones via nonmedical pathways for over half a century.

Protecting women in sports somehow constantly ends up at creating barriers for women in sports
What is it worth indeed, Lindsay ? Because you’re overlooking one.
It seems a lot of people saw 1984 as a how to book.
The people who created international law weren’t pacifist ninnies. No, they had gone through war and were determined to never go through that again.
This video shows real smoke over Tehran from Israeli strikes on oil depots & fuel facilities last night—confirmed by NYT, AP, Al Jazeera, Times of Israel. Black clouds from burning hydrocarbons—not normal sunrise.
