My sister just messaged me and said she just turned on the #grammys and wanted to know if they were just going to act like everything was normal (re the current political climate). I told her that it seemed like they were, and rightly so. We cannot let them steal all our joy and steal our art (🧵)

omg I am so here for the Missouri woman reading from her journal, speaking truth about the exploitation of artists, shocking all those powerful industry people with radical notions about healthcare. #grammys

Hello, Bluesky Family! We're so happy to be here! For folks who haven't heard of us, we support Two-Spirit, trans and gender diverse youth, adults and families in Alberta through all sorts of events, programs, & opportunities. 🌈 Follow us to stay up to date on all we have going on. 🌈

Can someone please double-dog-dare Mump and Trusk that they can’t live on another planet? I think that might work.

I am a cat person, BUT those videos of shelter dogs getting to choose their own toy for Christmas get me every time.

Excellent read on the damage to gender diverse Albertans and the collateral damage for all of us due to the worst of all of the poorly thought out UCP policies 👇 theconversation.com/danielle-smi...

A powerful Op Ed from Douglas Stollery who was Co-Counsel on Vriend v. Alberta. “Just as we defended the dignity and Charter rights of gay people then, we must defend the dignity and Charter rights of trans people now.” #abpoli #cdnpoli #ableg www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

i’m an album girly playlists are cool but listening to an entire album in order, the way the artist intended? that’s where it’s at for me personally

If you go to a Wicked showing and start singing they should be allowed to beat you with popcorn bags. Them babies came to hear Ariana Grande and Cynthia Eviro, not Pam from the community theater troupe. GROW UP.

A women-led team of 20, working remotely, is showing up a trillion dollar megacorp. Truly inspiring.

A list of bands in order of efficacy: 3. Placebo 2. The Cure 1. Prevention

This was a lovely read. I adore this film and I don’t let a single holiday pass without watching it at least once.

I wanna rock and roll 2 hours tops and party maybe every 14 days

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting. Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

Watch this. Trudeau annihilates Pierre Poilievre.

Politico is reporting Trump will name Dr. Ladapo of Florida to a senior spot, likely Surgeon General or Assistant HHS. This would be a horrifying pick for trans people. He's responsible for Florida's adult trans ban, and works with SEGM/Anti-trans global movement. He's also an ardent anti-vaxxer.

I am finding it quite unbearable to watch Sarah McBride bear the grotesque attack of her colleagues with so much grace. I know it is what we have been taught to expect of trailblazers, but I am increasingly struggling to accept this.

“Bluesky is an echo chamber!” Our Reply: Echo chamber? Nah, we prefer to call it surround sound for facts.

Saving the CBC isn't just about protecting your favourite program or personality. It's about preserving national unity -- and preventing Canada from being subject to a hostile foreign takeover. www.nationalobserver.com/2024/11/19/o...

Sometimes I wonder what motivates non-coffee drinkers to get out of bed. Probably some sort of pulley system.

Absolutely

0.55% of Albertans identify as Transgender. 37% of Albertans feel the cost of living is a challenge. Guess which issue the UCP is introducing legislation to address? #abpoli #ableg

A 5-year-old stomped into a restaurant in a princess dress, held up her arms and shouted "I'M HERE." I just hired her to be my life coach.

When things are hard this is easy to forget.

The kitchen is not going to clean itself! but I’d like to think I’m an optimist.

Hold your premiers accountable for their regressive policies, divisive rhetoric and inability to lead on crucial issues under provincial jurisdiction, like healthcare and education. At the very least, our leaders should have empathy and trust science.

Her voice is still out of this world!

Fellow Albertans, and any family members of Albertans: We need to start talking about losing our pensions with EVERYBODY. So many people do not know what is happening. We need to get the word out, IRL, to people who are not on social media. Talk to family, friends, coworkers, customers, strangers.

Twenty-three Alberta NDP MLAs here now, plus their leader! go.bsky.app/9kcFRzx

Build the homes. Not that way, my way. Which is no way. Dick-tator Pierre. Doing dick-tator things. #neverpoilievre

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." -- Margaret Mead, who died #OTD 1978

Penelope is just takin it easy on a snowy, chilly #Caturday . Plenty of time for lounging and pom pom play!

“There are times that I want to shout, ‘We caught you! You were complicit! You enjoyed their show! But ‘come taste the wine, come hear the band,’ right? Fuck you, and how dare you. You want a performance? I'll give you a performance. That’s ‘Cabaret’.” - Auli‘i Cravalho

Yes. I’m over being told that I can’t exist in an echo chamber and still be informed. Fuck that. Gonna find some peace in this bubble. Happily get my news from all of the amazing journalists I’ve followed. Engage in civil conversations with people who actually listen.

Read our new qualitative research report focused on the lived experiences of trans and non-binary youth in Alberta. It’s important to remember that these are the voices that we should be listening to and supporting. www.macewan.ca/c/documents/...

1. Ohio has become the first state in the aftermath of the election to pass an anti-trans law on the first day of a lame duck session. It is a transgender bathroom ban that even applies to adults in private universities. Subscribe to support my journalism.

28 years ago today, the CHICAGO revival opened on Broadway. Still running, it will soon give its 11,000th performance.

My anger lies in exactly that. You cannot love me if you want to POSSESS me. When God made me He made me free. You FOUND me free. That is what attracted you to me. But now that I, as a woman, have reciprocated that love towards you, I have to exist in a cage? That’s the deal with patriarchy.
