I was thinking about the idea of a fat village, like Toronto’s Gay village. A neighborhood where dieting advertiments are banned. Where all cafes, gyms & shops are fat friendly. Where all doctors, nurses, trainers are fat. A neighborhood full of street arts made by fat artists :)

For the first time, my fitness instructor was my size—and I noticed more big people attending the class too. The space felt truly welcoming to me as a fat woman. We definitely need more body inclusivity in fitness to break stereotypes and make everyone feel at home.

We all know how a car centric society reduces our wellbeing and resiliency and yet we continue relying on car infrastructure. It’s frustrating.

Attended a session discussing how commuting affects student success and engagement. Negative experiences impact students’ ambitions, social engagement, & academic achievement. Thought about our students' commuting challenges in St. John's throughout the presentation. #CACUSS2024

The sooner people in the West realise that they’re living in a bubble, the better for humanity & themselves. Your “democracy” is killing us. Your “politicians” are our war criminals. Your “journalists” are our genocide propagandists. Your “taxes” are burning our children alive.

My brother and I had the same hairstylist, Ali. He was the first person with green eyes I had ever met. I was always curious if his eye color was real, so I made sure to ask him every time I visited. He reassured me they were while my mom was apologizing.

Will we ever truly be free from colonialism? Feeling hopeless…

It's strange to be Israel: You violate a mountain of UN resolutions, condemn the UN at every turn, bomb UN schools & shelters, murder UN employees, & then you demand a UN meeting over another country responding to your bombing of their consulate 🤯

[Bahar Haghighat @BaharHagh]

The thought of a war between Iran and Israel is paralyzing. Such a scary night…
