Hi I'm Sarah, and I'm "too emotionally invested in the wellbeing of trans people because of my degree" [Gender Studies, yes with honours].

Introduce yourself with the wildest feedback you’ve ever received.

I’ll go first:

“Hi I’m Amy. I’m too ambitious 🤝”

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

@jaffer_fatema Thank you so much Fatema! We're doing okay. Our neighbors on the third floor have lost thier homes. If there's community action for them I will post that!

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

My building caught fire tonight. We are out okay with all our pets. So are our neighbors. Staying at my parent's place until we are allowed to go see the damage. Feels surreal.

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

Me and Angela got out with all FIVE pets in only minutes because my amazing BFF helped me make a full emergency plan. I am not trying to be dramatic, but we could have died on Sunday. Instead we are cozy and safe and my parent's house.

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

No one ever expects the fire to happen at thier house. But please take a lesson from me. It can. This is your sign to check your smoke detectors and CO alarm. Get that second fire extinguisher. Make a first aid kit.

@ScipioCk I agree, Chris. Sending you some good vibes. Take care.

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

Update: we were allowed in to get things and see the damage yesterday, our apartment is fine and we are very lucky. No word on when we can go home yet.

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

Heading home to assess the damage. Hopefully we are allowed to go in, but we have no new info to share yet.

Everyone got out. We saw one person get walked to an ambulance. Our super says the whole 3rd floor was full of thick black smoke. We may be allowed back inside to get essentials tomorrow am.

This was really scary. Within 10 minutes, much of the Golden Triangle went from a quiet Sunday night to completely enveloped in smoke and 🚒 🚔 and 🚑s. I hope everyone is OK. #ottfire #ottnews #ottcity

@sidramatik Also after I had surgery I just felt gross all the time. Having make up wipes to wash my face and mouthwash and a lil spit cup so I could freshen up without having to get up was a gamechanger, they may like having those near by.

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

@sidramatik My bff had the same surgery last year. They won't be able lift thier arms above thier chest or stretch out, so put everything they need in places where they don't have to reach (especially upwards) or bend. Ex: put all their shower stuff on the tub ledge, not in a hanging caddy.

[Andee🐙Pittman (they/them) @andeepittmanux]

In #DEI, I think we are forgetting to consult with good ol’ Google first... Is it a lack of time that’s preventing us from doing basic homework? Consultation fatigue is real. Party cuz we’re asking uninformed questions. It’s not an effective use of time and (emotional!!!) energy.

Ottawa Police hoping to repair their image after Trucker Convoy debacle by arresting students protesting school dress code crackdown

[Ahmed Ali @DrAhmednurAli]

Ensuring people with disabilities have access to spaces is not doing them a "favour", it's correcting a design flaw. Your presence is only centred because the system centres you. You ain't special.

[Sarah Patrick @SarahPatGoC]

@andeepittmanux Feel better soon pal! 🤞🏻💗

[Ahmed Ali @DrAhmednurAli]

There's no way all this bias is unconscious.

hey, just checking in, does anyone know what to................................. do

Ottawa Police says their occupation of downtown Ottawa is a lot more organized now that they are in uniform

@andeepittmanux And when you're there, don't forget to tip your server well 😉
