@ChaosIsMel Many people who use substances are on the front lines of community work. They keep eachother safe, do wound care, do crisis intervention, share clean supplies etc. Consider making room for harm reduction in your organizing approach or expand how you understand community work.
I am desperate and need help urgently. I was already preparing to leave because of the investments in unconstitutional oil extraction but I'm in awe at how the richest banking institution in the country handles massive systems problems
@cbcgopublic@RBC I have waited 2 months for nearly $2000 fraudulent charges to be taken off of my account. I have waited a cumulative 10 hrs on hold and have been hung up on thrice by the disputes dept. This is affecting not only my credit rating, but my ability to buy groceries

Literally so done with the people on Twitter incessantly critiquing conversations around striking. Absolutely, other things need to be built first. But shitting on the seeds of a burgeoning social movement is just maintaining the overall sense of disenfranchisement.
The same RCMP that were created to force Indigenous peoples into reserves and enforce the pass system? RCMP who continue to violently expedite the theft of Indigenous land? The audacity of this set up-@rcmpmb shouldn't be anywhere NEAR Indigenous people's day. #AbolishTheRCMP

A reminder for the leftist twitter that the war on drugs is literally an insidious wing of white supremacy and colonialism that legitimizes community surveillance, policing and incarceration. Stigmatizing substance use serves this very oppressive goal.

Two days in a row of working all the day and the night. I feel like death. How did I function when I was 22? Also, this is not my situation but the fact of anyone having to do this consistently to earn a livable wage is a disgrace. And it's absolutely a policy decision.
After spending so much time in academia where I grew to feel more and more alienated from my working class fam and blue collar roots, it feels so good to be involved in rad work that makes me feel as close to them as ever.
