White gays thinking that Jonathan Joss wouldn't have been murdered if he were straight is exactly the fucking problem with white leftists/feminists/queer spaces that don't unpack their anti- Indigenous racism and their settler-colonial frame of mind.

The International Journal of Indigenous Health is an invaluable resource. Not only does it model what education should be (collaborative, open access, etc.), it provides a health and community wellness guide for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/ij...

"Jonathan Joss dies at 59" Jonathan Joss was murdered in a homophobic, racist hate crime that was an escalation of abuse and harassment that had been reported to the police multiple times already. Media outlets failing to centre this reality are enabling the social forces that caused it.

NEW VIDEO! And it's on a time-sensitive issue, so shares really help. Doug Ford's conservatives are fast-tracking an incredibly destructive bill here in Ontario. We gotta get on them before they can push it through. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaKU...

It's the first day of Pride and my mood is extremely "internal screaming" but I've decided to lean into my feelings and heal my soul with some external screaming, as well. #selfcare #Pride

Canadian doctors returning from Gaza have stated very clearly that they saw no evidence of secret Hamas tunnels or hideouts anywhere, let alone in hospitals, and media outlets are being far too quiet about this after years of enabling Israel's "human shields" narrative.

SCOOP: Elon Musk will not be fully exiting DOGE. In fact, federal workers from at least six agencies tell WIRED that DOGE-style work is escalating in their departments, and President Trump himself said in a press conference today that “Elon's really not leaving.”

I'm promoting two fundraisers for families I'm in direct contact with (so yes, I am personally vouching for them.) Please donate--anything helps. I know money is tight for many of us, and sharing is great, but most of us can donate at least something. Every little bit helps. Remember that.

We're not even in June yet and wildfires are already rampant across Canada. Manitoba has declared a state of emergency. In May. Ffs. This is a direct result of the oil and gas sector. This is what decades of lies, lobbying, and ignoring climate change has led to. They must be held accountable.

Gonna ask that people set aside the pedantry and focus on the point here: Community = Shared experience. Coalition = Shared goal. We need coalitions right now. If we continue to get caught up in whether or not we can build community with each other, we're fucked. That's how the fascists win.

There's something very important here that cis, self-proclaimed "allies" really aren't getting: If your commitment to supporting trans people is so flimsy that you can't even not stream a show, why would we trust that you'll stand by us on things that are far more difficult? 1/3

Some more stating the obvious to clear things up for some folks: The corporate elite in the USA intentionally established a religious order for the purpose of control and profit* and have since replaced "broadly Christian" as their religious order with overt White supremacy. 1/6
