@kim_siever Yes. You have been sheltered. I have innumerable similar examples as do ALL of the women I know. I tell men what I have to do about safety and they look at me funny. Women share more / new personal safety tips. Not new. Not surprising. Not unusual. Still sucks.
@caitoz Did everyone just forget that nukes EXISTED? Like they were real for the last damn 77 years? LOL if they exist they can be used. Why does it matter who may use them for what reason? F’n get rid of them jeezuz.
VANDU is conducting a community investigation of the @VancouverPD hit & run in the #DTES on Sep 20. We are collecting testimonies through [email protected].
We received disturbing footage of the incident. Video & analysis below: (1/12)
Media have repeatedly asked the Saskatchewan RCMP for details on the cause of death for Myles Sanderson. In a statement today, Assistant Commissioner Rhonda Blackmore says, "This is not a TV drama where we will have all of the answers by the end of the episode." @globeandmail
In August 2019, my former employer @EmilyCarrU hired Gina Adams, an “Ojibwe-Lakota” artist, as part of a restricted search for Indigenous faculty. Then people started asking questions about her identity— including me. My first feature for @macleans:

@CharleyFlyte@darkpoutinepod Used “We didn’t say it we are just reading historical writing to give context and background for the story” an excuse used many many times to justify hate. Just gross. And many people don’t see the problem with this.
@CharleyFlyte I remember looking forward to relaxing & listening to @darkpoutinepod and hearing this slur used over and over in an episode. Stomach turning. I mentioned it & was booted from FB fan pages. Several emails later invited back. No thanks. Left a bad taste - so gross.
@LaurelNelsonH@BFSingh LOL guess you’re not Indigenous? MB SK AB BC… & of course it’s not EVERYONE but it’s widespread obvious & loud racism. *withering scorn* 😂 anyhow glad Valbella is getting it’s comeuppance tho, nice to see some progress out there.

Footage of my indigenous partner being attacked, unprovoked, in Battleford, SK by 3 white males.
Our 6 y/o daughter was in our truck and is traumatized.
Also attached is the public statement by my partner.
Police found them but have laid no charges.
Share widely.
@ansonmount Absolutely. Chris Rock is a bully and creepy old dude that complains of being “uncle-zoned” by younger women. His material isn’t funny and neither is he. So gross.
