You can be intelligent, hardworking, talented, and much, much more, but often it doesn’t matter. Like many pyramid schemes, the people at the top sometimes don’t even do any work. They profit off the people below them who do work. www.halifaxexaminer.ca/morning-file...

Okay, it's late. Tonight's inventory selections. Today's feature was a pair of works, necklace and cuff [shown below]. So tonight, it's another necklace and cuff that, like the featured works, were created entirely independently but seem to belong together.

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social & the CBC: Who is making you think this is the most responsible way to address a threat to Canada’s existence as we know it? Why are you not instead doing a show on the reality of what that might mean and all the reasons we DON’T want to be 51? My dudes 🤦🏼‍♀️.

I fucked up someone’s pronouns yesterday (no excuse, I fucked up) and a poster kindly reminded me of the correct ones. Listen. You can correct me on that anytime. Correct me on my birthday. Correct me on my deathbed. Because despite what terrible people say, your identity MATTERS.

I just realized today is my 1 year anniversary of moving to Puerto Rico 🎉 I tried multiple times in 15 years to move here, but this time it worked. I left behind an abusive relationship and a city I hated. I moved to a town where at least 8 generations of my ancestors were born.

“Are you going to mask forever?” I don’t know… are you planning to spread Covid forever? Masking keeps people healthy. It’s necessary because as a society we’ve refused to do anything to reduce airborne spread. It protects the wearer and those around them. Easy choice!

My downstairs neighbours have both suddenly developed powerful coughs and have been staying home (instead of working) for the last couple days. So yes, I will continue to mask because who wants whatever that is.

I am a very proud monthly donor to the Palmetto State Abortion Fund. They are doing absolutely vital work in difficult circumstances, and every dollar you send goes to helping people access crucial abortion care. Funds like these and heroes like these are the front line for our freedom.
