I'm an Israeli, like those two ('nice') individuals; all three of us grew up with a narrative that paints Gaza—just a few dozen kilometers from our home—not as a place of and for people but as a land of terror, tunnels & extremism, something hopeless to be caged and controlled 🧵
Imane Khelif is a biological woman and if you want to protect our daughters, you should protect her. If you don’t do the research to find the truth, then we should be protected from you.
The word “defence” is loaded with emotional and psychological attachments. Defined as the act of protecting someone or something from harm or criticism, it suggests that there is always a clear aggressor and victim.

I am deeply disturbed by the horrible situation and dramatic loss of life in several hospitals in Gaza.
In the name of humanity, I call for an immediate humanitarian cease fire.
المجتمع الذي يُصفق للمرأة المُضحية ويصفها بالشمعة المحترقة، لن يقف معها ولن يسد حاجتها، المرأة لا تريد أن تكون شمعة ولا وردة ولا مزهرية ولا حلاوة مغلفة أو غير مغلفة، المرأة تريد أن تكون إنسانا قادرا على الاختيار والعيش بحرّية

If you are a boss and have a intimate relationship with a staff person that reports to you, especially a person much younger than you, that is a abuse of power. The responsibility rests on you not that staff person. #TOpoli

Q. Is Trump a good man?
A. “Only God knows.”
Former Vice President Mike Pence recounts the January 6 attack, when then-president Trump’s words sparked a mob to seek out Pence. From the @NPR interview coming Tuesday:
To all the women who have been told that they are:
too loud,
too emotional,
too ambitious,
too difficult,
too bossy,
too much,
Stereotypes have held us back for far too long.

This is Iran today. A woman proudly burning the most visible symbol of religious dictatorship; compulsory hijab.
Hijab police killed #MahsaAmini but now there are millions of Mahsa in Iran who are shouting NO to Forced hijab NO to gender apartheid regime.

تساهم التربية الذكورية بتضخيم" الأنا " عند الذكر، مما يجعله لا يتقبل أي رفض أو انتقاد منها ويبادر بالعنف، تُستخدم الأنثى كمرآة تضخيم للذكر منذ الطفولة، تُعطى الفتاة مسؤولية الأعمال المنزلية بينما يُعفى الذكر من خدمة نفسه، جرعة تضخيم وثقة يأخذها الذكر وتنتزع من الأنثى( 1)
As we close out the final chapter, let me leave you with this…”Take the risks. Make the big moves, even if they’re small moves. Forge ahead with your lives in any and every direction that moves you. I’m asking you to be fearless.” - Rebecca Pearson #ThisIsUs
Congress must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land in this country NOW. And if there aren’t 60 votes in the Senate to do it, and there are not, we must end the filibuster to pass it with 50 votes.
Ontarians have faced the highest childcare costs in Canada for years. Ford was last to sign a $10/day deal. Now he's delaying to Fall 2025 and promised rebates are in the wind.
As Premier, I'll get $10/day childcare done sooner, not make folks wait 3.5 years for relief. #ONpoli
