If you think job searching is tough these days, try job searching while requesting reasonable accommodation for disability. I am so disheartened. I am still me, the same person I have always been, and I am DAMNED good at what I do. But as soon as I ask for accommodation... *POOF* ghosted.

Hey Donny, is “Canada” in the room with you now?

Watching the Throne Speech now and Camilla could not look any more bored lol. All I can imagine is her thinking “Really do I need to be here? I heard you practicing this FIVE TIMES already!”

I get so excited for new followers on here, and then it turns out to be a bot old man looking for love... sigh... #FollowMeSometimesImFunnyISwear

Milk misogyny #survivor #survivor48

Imagine being given less screen time than milk in this finale #Survivor48

Maybe they can just do an elbow position check instead of a genital check when we use public restrooms in red states now. #Survivor #Survivor48

That scene with Eva and Joe may be one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen on this show. #Survivor48

The failure to protect farmland now threatens Ontario’s food sovereignty and our $50 Billion food and farming economy that employs 875,000 people. We're losing too much farmland too quickly. It's time to establish a Foodbelt to protect Ontario's farmland. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Thinking about the fact we say a corpse has more rights than a woman in some states because you can’t harvest organs without consent but you can force a woman to give birth. But with the case in Georgia… we need to amend. A MALE corpse has more rights than a woman - alive or dead. #AdrianaSmith

When you become disabled or chronically ill, people abandon you. Most people have an internal clock. If you’re not “better” by the time their patience runs out, they disappear. If we can’t trust our loved ones to stick around, what hope do we have with elected officials or the general public?

!!!! NEW: Canada is summoning Israel's ambassador after the IDF shot at four Canadian diplomatic officials in Ramallah earlier today.

And here I thought I didn’t like that guy 😏

I would so like to start a business proofreading websites for people/companies. I'm trying to study an online course at the moment and all of the errors are driving me insane.

If Service Canada is going to make me wait on hold for 20 minutes can they not get some less annoying hold music???

Disabled people are not expendable. Disabled people are not lazy. Disabled people are not “choosing” to be sick. Disabled people deserve healthcare, social supports & accommodation. These are not controversial concepts. Ableism & health supremacy tell you otherwise. Fight with us. Fight for us.

I mean, it's almost poetic that they don't seem to understand what "aggressive" means... #Biden

Just made the mistake of hanging out in the Bad Place. *shudder* I can lose all faith in humanity in seconds over there.

Never get in the way of a Canadian and a lingerie sale.

Average global CEO pay has skyrocketed 50% since 2019 to $4.3M. By contrast, average worker pay has risen just 0.9% over that same time period.  Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Pierre running in an Alberta riding that just went Conservative by over 80% of the vote is like me trying to win the local talent show by demanding my parents be the judges www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

Excellent thread on the data/ vote integrity of Canadian elections. I've heard it hinted our are harder to hack because of paper ballots, but this goes into the detail of how much work is involved to prevent ballot tampering. 🧵

This is not normal. This government gets closer and closer every day to declaring war on its own people. This post is a clear and direct statement of intention to defy the Supreme Court and end rule of law in the United States.

Took these screen shots myself to be sure it was real. How does ANYONE take this government seriously? I'd say their social media sounds like it's run by a 14yo, but a 14yo would be more professional than this.

I was hearing all kinds of stories about advance polls having long lines, but when my daughter and I went this morning we were in and out in about five minutes. Don't know if that was a sign people here aren't voting, are waiting to decide their vote, or just better organization. #CanadaElection2025

My favorite tweet today. 💣

What should Andrew Scheer be holding in his hand? I’m feeling silly and don’t want to start my school work yet.
