@mattschnipper Ps- there also seems to be a shift towards this among women… most friend groups have 1 or 2 women who participate minimally in group chats, giving “burden” vibes - but who’d happily share a longer call 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@mattschnipper Isn’t it also partly rooted in the linguistic power games guys are enculturated into very young? A la Carole gilligan’s research? The conversational 1-upmanship that in real life makes it fun to hear men chatting 😆

@CrowGeofrey @ssdai @mattschnipper You make it sound like listening to a couple of songs is like toiling in the salt mines. 😆. I think you basically made his point for him.

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@Hanelizqui Agree! We are doing some work on this if you ever want to chat - hmu via email

The grace, Athleticism, strategy, timing & intelligent prediction ability of soccer players - this** is what makes the game so bloody beautiful to watch. He came from outta nowhere 👀👀 #wecan #canadasoccer

ICONIC 🇨🇦

Alphonso Davies gives Canada the lead after an incredible cross from Tajon Buchanan!

@WHaddaraMed Solidly agree - great performance! Well the score matters for the rankings but wasn’t it a beautiful game to watch? Can we agree the inspirational skill & energy also counts for all we fans? 😊👍🏼🙃😅

@SimuLiu And we are all glad you lead it 👌🏽. Awesome work

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@nerds_talking @SimuLiu @AnthonyMackie Liu didn’t say anything like that. Straw man argument.

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@ScottSullivanTV @iambaz_uk @SimuLiu You’re just making up a straw man argument. Liu didn’t say that

Important local history of homophobia /discrimination & how that’s shifting

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@TothSusan @CityofLdnOnt TYSM Susan for sharing the (recent) history on this. Striking that she was re-elected! 😧🫤.

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@TothSusan @shawnwlewis So happy for these changes. Thnx

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@KUCFA @Biometricstate @uwofa1 @WesternU Great leadership folks!

#IStandWithCUPE - great points - Ford - you are down-loading burden to parents & teachers when you don’t negotiate for a fair wage for these school staff. Making teachers & kids go virtual undermines #CUPE case.

[🖤🖤 @ButlerLonney]

If schools close because Ford wants to shortchange our kids again my children will NOT be participating in virtual. Ford and Lecce aren't using my kids to cross picket lines. I'm done with this government of bullies and misogynists. #IStandWithCUPE

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@CBCLondon Where can parents go to show support?

[Pamela Cushing @CushingPamela]

@RebeccaZandberg @CBCLondon @osbcucscso @waltonmom @BramptonGraham @Sflecce The deceptive word-play used by this MPP, and the Ontario government generally, is shameful 😑🤕 They* are the barrier to stability in schools, not CUPE. All staff in schools deserve a living wage 💵 I will pay the tax for them #CUPESolidarity
