Here’s a sentence you won’t be able to unread… On “Alberta Day”, Danielle Smith stood beside the lawyer who repped the Coutts blockade and was also Artur Pawlowski’s lawyer in a suit against the government… Who also heads up a synth pop group. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

it won’t be an “independence” loan. It will be a “you owe us and so we are taking control” means to forcing Alberta into becoming a US state.

I don’t know but have a sense that Lara Williams is not going through perimenopause or menopause. The women inAJLTare, and it can be crazy-making. Many of us who are at that age find the story lines perfectly relevant, given our bodies and minds and emotions are “wildly incoherent”.

Nenshi has said many times that the fact Danielle Smith won’t say she is against separatism is telling. However, he can’t risk that people who do not want to vote NDP will turn away from #ForeverCanadian if he becomes associated with that movement. Better that it is separate from party politics.

Trump keeps changing his mind. This is not the end. Carney had to do something to make Canada appear cooperative and reasonable so that, when Canadians start losing their livelihoods due to US tariffs, they won’t be able to point at Carney and say he made no effort to negotiate.

I understand most people don’t want to leave X because that’s where most other people still are. That just means that it’s a collective action problem; it can be overcome with organizing that brings people together towards non-cooperation. If we can’t even get off X, how can we stop fascism?

Expanding the definition of what is a woman (or a man) is not helpful and creates further disadvantages for biological women. I am suggesting additional categories that better serve the spectrum of humanity.
