Please don’t pin your hopes high on Trudeau.

He’s a nice and pleasant guy.

So? Trump is popular in many circles in the UK, doesn’t mean he’s a good leader.

Yeah, I rolled my eyes when American outlets covered Trudeau in 2015, and I’m rolling them even harder when they’re still using that same glossy-eyed coverage in 2018. He’s an empty suit with a handsome man inside it who rode daddy’s fame to power, nothing more.

Or more jaded, it’s Trudeau desperate for some good PR after he’s Blaired all over the place. Nothing says “heart-throb” like fucking over First Nations, building a giant and environmentally toxic oil pipeline, and selling arms to the Saudis. All he needs to do now is invade somewhere and he’s fulfilled the prophecy.

Rampage: The tale of Furious George.

When I was young (circa the late 90s and early aughts), there was a rather wide spread discussion about how horrible magazines targeted at young girls were for young girls. That the images and even the writing in these magazines were disastrous to young girls self esteem and self worth. People even floated the dread…

This is exactly right, and a huge secondary benefit of UBI.

Yes. Read the press release. Also, this is a jail thing, not a prison thing.

This is very concerning. As someone who works with formerly incarcerated women, I am very concerned for the safety and wellbeing of female inmates, the majority of whom are trauma survivors. There have already been problems with housing trans identified males in women’s facilities in the U.K. and US- women being…

Just these little demure ones

Poured rain most of the day; what everyone thinks of as “typical Seattle” weather but really is pretty rare.

16 Inches in Minneapolis! MSP Airport shut down, more than 600 accidents on the freeways. Happy Spring!

I feel the same exact way. You would think jez would be pro womxn and girls but they are more pro backpage.

Snow tomorrow. The never-ending winter is really bringing me down.

Soooooo, when is Jezzie going to start seriously discussing the other side of this issue? Why are we always framing FOSTA around the topic of sex workers? Why aren’t we discussing a FAR more serious issue of underage victims? Don’t fuck with me on this one. Sex trafficking victims are not in this industry by choice…

It was 80+ here today so I shaved part my hair off because it’s HOT and it’s suppose to snow Monday or Tuesday. I need winter to go away.

I’ve already posted this on GroupThink, so I’m going to try to copy the link to here; paper marbling, as promised last week.

Fingers crossed! Its going back and forth here so you never really know what you are going to get.

There was about 20 centimetres of snow in Central Ontario today. It was 10°C yesterday. I shouldn’t be surprised but I’m always surprised by our spring weather.

So, this is taken from someone who is a widow now and doesn’t HAVE to associate with the terrible, awful, mother in law anymore if I don’t want to (which I don’t).
