Beaver. Not Pussy.

Canadian resilience, saying no to abuse, protecting sovereignty, childhood lessons, standing up for Canada.
We learned to be kind, but we also learned to say NO, GO, and tell someone when something felt icky. Now, after threats to our sovereignty, we’re told to play nice and not boo the U.S. anthem? Fuck that. We are distancing ourselves from a predator. We are Canadian—nice, NOT stupid.

LINT

Why do people NOT remove their lint from the dryer when they remove their clothes?
Perhaps even before removing their own items and preventing the smaller ones from falling into the vent screen. Or, even prevent the lint becoming dragged into the basket of clean, dry and lint-free clothes.

Stigma? Projecting Much?

breaking the chains of stigma
I’d encourage everyone to stop supporting the stigma that people choose to become disabled or that we are lazy or its a punishment for poor decisions. When we justify how we became disabled, we support that stigma. Congenital, accidents or just because that’s the way the universe does its thing are all the same. They all deliver us to the same future of struggle.
