Compiled a list of resources to better educate and encourage conversation, links in ways you can help for free (signing petitions, streaming) and links to Black owned businesses and organizations to give your dollar and support to in Canada. https://t.co/xX18hIaSHA
@mikesbloggity Tbh it’s probably because the vehicles that need to be rented out aren’t cleaned yet and they’re avoiding admitting that (at least from my experience working at one)
honestly hard to fathom how difficult of a feat this is. many workers at Cargill are TFWs without permanent residency, likely almost all of them rely on their jobs to send remittances to family elsewhere.
so much deep admiration and unending solidarity to the workers ✊🏻
Oh, I finally watched “Promising Young Woman” last night. Many things happened in that movie and then THINGS REALLY STARTED HAPPENING and then, lo and behold, things CONTINUED to happen right up until the credits. Wild.
I cannot stress this enough: we can & should elect people who don’t have a history of behaviour that abuses power & privilege. #yyccc

@kuel_it @juststacey_ Second this! Watch it with English subtitles but not the ones labeled “English CC” as those are captions for the English dub. The English dub is very poorly done.
Oh back to security for a second. We’re now given the option to block tracking pixels in Mail.
They’re basically hidden within emails so companies can see when you’ve opened emails and how long for. RIP Mail Chimp.
I worked at a small credit union when I was in college and when you see that the average person has under 300 dollars to their name. That they get paid on a Friday and they are broke again by Tuesday because of bills.
As a former refugee, I urge y'all to rethink sharing images of people in their most difficult moments. Yes, we need to document and share stories, but there is a big difference between raising awareness and the commodification of human suffering.
Please try to restrict your electricity use between 4 and 7 pm in this weather (no dishwashers or laundry) to protect the grid and make sure everyone can stay safe.
Really unsure how anyone can “celebrate” Canada Day this year knowing there has literally been a discovery of over (and at least) 1,000 dead Indigenous children covered up by the government, church, police, within a week—a month, of Canada Day.

@nenshi with the recent news of a proposed name change for Bishop Grandin High School in Calgary, I am proposing that the school’s name is changed to a Tsuut’ina one. As someone from Tsuut’ina this is the high school I attended and my Mom and her siblings. #yyc#residentialschool
