Fat lady + cat lady. ADHD haver, among many other things. I re-post lots because sometimes someone else says it better. Be prepared for some Alberta (🇨🇦) politics. Opinions my own & so on. A follow-back is not an invitation to DM. 🍉🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Amiskwaciwâskahikan

Happy Monday Evening from adoptable kitties, Hunny and Rose! These cuties are all cozied up and sending greetings from the cat_cafe_on_whyte (10111 82 Avenue, Edmonton), so adorable! Hunny and Rose are 9 months old, they must be adopted together, with one of their similarly aged SAFE Team pals,

Bill 49 should have been dead on arrival. Albertans don’t want a provincial police force. Rural leaders don’t want a provincial police force. Even Sheriffs themselves have serious questions. But the UCP refuses to talk to any of them. They’re just forcing it through. #ableg

"Pierre Poilievre's fixation on punishment, using the Not Withstanding clause to keep people in prison until they come out in a box & to appoint tougher judges, is very Trumpian." - Neil Boyd, Professor Emeritus (Criminology) at Simon Fraser University #Canada #cdnpoli #elxn45

Quebec has used the notwithstanding clause several times. Outside Quebec, I've only seen it invoked by Conservative Premiers for reasons ranging from same-sex marriage bans to banning strikes by education workers. Now Poilievre has joined Conservatives wanting to shortcut our Constitution. #cdnpoli

"Do you know one thing I never did to cope or in response to my autism? Repeatedly fire off a Nazi Roman salute." An incredible piece from The Big Picture that doesn’t hold back.

Fellow ADHDers, does anyone have to wear a night guard? I don't like wearing mine, but I grind like mad. I have so much trouble remembering to care for it and wear it at night. If anyone has tricks that work for them, it love to hear about it! #ADHD

I need us all to start looking at bylines more. The man who wrote this doesn’t have a degree in *anything* — and it shows in the writing. A tangent in the thread, hopefully short.

I found this an interesting but maddening read. Interesting for the research, but maddening for how it was written, focusing almost exclusively on children, using “he” as the pronoun for every hypothetical child, and spending a lot of time on how ADHD symptoms annoy parents and teachers
