Liberals are giving Texas oil company #KinderMorgan a blank cheque while dumping all the risks on Canadians

Rigged process, First Nations & local communities shut out, oil spill threats, science ignored & now billions on the line

It's clear this pipeline should not be built.

@gin_and_tacos @Nicole_Cliffe @Slate I hope in the modern version of this they work in CPR protocol. Like, call 911, do some chest compressions, and only then break out the holy water.

@martacanneri Yeah, this is my problem with religion. Because where else would you have aunts who GENUINELY BELIEVE that this will happen, and that it's morally and ethically okay to emotionally blackmail a child? :(

TYPES OF SHORT PEOPLE
• cute piece of sunshine you can fit in your pocket
• will bite your ankles and has already bitten many ankles
• can't reach things so keeps tall friends
• collects swords and food, basically a hobbit
• always mistaken for a child and is very tired

@HopesNook Oh thank god. My mom is an English teacher, and somehow her values have festered inside of me. I am happy few books were harmed. :)

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@HopesNook I love this a lot. But somewhere a bibliophile purist is screaming about those holes.

@RexHuppke @fozmeadows I don't think you understand the concept of "fake news." It's not about errors. It's about willful perpetuation of myths, lack of fact-checking, and reproduction of sensationalized stories based on poor or no research. None of which you are guilty of. You're good.

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@KivaBay This is shitty, and I'm sorry that you're going through this (this week and every week).

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@TrueTorontoGirl There was an SNL skit about this.

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@Chinchillazllla OMG loneliness and rejection are part of the human condition. They are part of absolutely every single human being's life. Incels are defined by hatred, misogyny, and entitlement, NOT by their lack of sex.

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

Ok seriously though: if God didn't want everyone to have panic disorders, then why did He make the symptoms of heart attacks and anxiety attacks so similar?

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@garthnix Now I really want to read the book A Plague of Princes. Somebody get on that.

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

Maternal stress is a big risk factor for all sorts of things. Keeping women under constant fear for their lives is NOT good for their babies.
If your goal is actually reproduction, I would make some serious changes, Gilead.

I love #handmaidstale I really do.

I just won't ever understand why they don't use IVF to deal with the infertility problem. You can still have your dystopia, even. But like...we have the technology.

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@sapphixy @hannahisabellaj Finger mustaches! And....neck beards?

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

@ipalatsky So sorry for your loss.

[Ivy Donegal @IvyDonegal]

Cat hates the dogs. Dogs hate the chickens. Brought them all inside so they can bother one another and I can read my book in peace. Pet parenting level: spectacular.
