My grandma and I were talking about the concept of marital rape today, and it made me realize how much we owe to the feminist movement and the fight for women's rights.

She told me that when she was young, a woman literally had no say over her own body once she married. The moment you signed that license, you belonged to your husband. If he wanted to do it, you had to submit, no matter how tired, sick, or unwilling you were. There was no word for it, no law against it, and absolutely no support if you said no. It was just considered a wife's duty.

It was a heavy reminder of how hard women had to fight just to legally own their own bodies. For generations, women quietly endured violations in their own beds because the law refused to protect them.

Hearing her speak about the modern concept of consent with such genuine relief made me realize how vital female autonomy is.

Marriage is not a contract that signs away your rights, and your body is always your own.

This should be a career-ending scandal. But life under Trump is so hellish, it's not even front-page news.

Being part of a generation that was told “Wikipedia is not a source” makes it genuinely baffling to me that jobs are now telling people to just use ChatGPT for everything.

Over 100,000 kids could get free school lunches for what tonight’s Trump NBA Finals trip is costing taxpayers.

Doug Ford said he gutted OSAP because students were misusing the money and the program was too expensive.

But it was @fordnation who was mismanaging OSAP.

95% of a $465 million increase went to private career colleges, not Ontario’s public colleges and universities.

the pigeon doesn’t understand your disdain for it; it coos for you anyway. the tree does not know you own an axe for it; its leaves sway in the sun anyway. the starving cat eats the poison you put out. it doesn’t know how not to trust. the earth forgives you, in spite of yourself

why do "balls" imply toughness and "pussy" imply weakness when the slightest flick to the nuts sends a guy to his knees, yet a vagina can push out an entire being.?????

So maga are all over Hunter Biden because of his past addiction, but take medical advice from a guy who was a heroin addict for 14 years with a dead worm in his brain.

NHL teams should be asking “If one of your teammates texts you and says “there’s a naked girl in my room, hurry up” and you arrive to see 4 other guys there slapping her ass, tea bagging her and receiving oral sex - what would you do?”

[Raffi Cavoukian 🇨🇦 @Raffi_RC]

no matter who wins the Stanley Cup this year, the @NHL won't be the same. fans' outrage at the despicable conduct of Carter Hart and his cohorts will not go away, #NoMeansNo will grow. change will come, albeit slowly. racism and misogyny comprise gross misconduct—the league needs to adopt a moral code of respect. 🏒

Michelle Obama has spoken fairly regularly about how the Obama’s would miss out on opportunities so they would not inconvenience the public because they were in the White House to serve others.
