She followed up with "now, how are we going to extend that kindness to yourself".

If the number of people someone has slept with BEFORE you got together impacts how YOU see & value them, it's because YOU have some internalized misogyny to work through.
Get a therapist and don't out yourself as hating women on main.

Hi! I thought this for a long time too, but I was wrong. You can explore what is happening now with Indigenous folks in Canada by researching:
- Wet'suwet'en
- Mi'kmaq fisheries in Nova Scotia
- Camp Hope
- Gerard Stanley
- Incarceration rates of Indigenous Peoples
- MMIW
I don't have a sound cloud but if you live in Sask and can, please vote Oct 26th. Bring a friend. Register online. Remind family members that abstaining is a vote for the SaskParty. Mail-in registration closes Oct 15th. Early voting is Oct 20th-24th. Wear a mask. Be kind.
@PremierScottMoe
Kinda tone def for the premier to encourage donations when he’s literally the person who could just allocate gov’t funding to mental health care.
I did not know that my unequivocal hatred of how the pandemic has been managed could expand until my person was hospitalized with covid last night- 3 years into the pandemic, 24 hours before masking requirements are lifted in SHA facilities.

I’d be really embarrassed if I was openly quoting MT in any capacity, let alone one that shines her in any admirable light.
Everyone's out there asking about JLo and Shakiras skin care routine and I'm here to remind you that they are worth $400mil and $300mil respectively.
It's wealth. Their skincare routine is financial stability, nutrition & fitness coaches, and 💰 literal sacks of cash 💰.

What attitude? Being open to a conversation? Providing the opportunity for coaching? Offering very useful professional advice? Keeping the DMs private? Being sincere and compassionate? Maintaining a healthy boundary?
I 100% have MORE respect for doctors like this.

What's the purpose of this tweet? Do you want validation for "apologizing"?
Bc it isn't rly an apology when you a) start with "meh" b) pat yourself on the back for taking the "high road" and c) passively blame the person you were rude to for not engaging/accepting your apology?
@Winisme
Sounds like they need to pay employees if they want to guarantee someone will work the shift. 🤷♀️ anyone who pays to volunteer is being scammed.
@SensaHealth
this is weird because ADHD is a chemical imbalance in your brain and what you are promoting is coping mechanisms that work well WITH meds.

Date of last period isn’t a good indicator of pregnancy. I haven’t had a period in 10 years because of hormonal IUDs. Medical professionals should just ask directly if there’s a chance of pregnancy & explain WHY so patients can make an informed decisions to disclose.
@SaskHealth
@DaleBurnay
Okay but then why don't we tell people who drink to drive safely?
Because it encourages behaviour that is 100% preventable.
The same can be said for this tweet. It reads as if it isn't a *big* deal if people go out tonight.
Tell that to the 400+ dead Saskatchewan citizens.
@s_fahselt
That’s crazy. It sounds like they need employees, not volunteers. The exchange isn’t “my time, labour & money” for “helping your event go well” it’s “my time & labour” for “doing something to help my community&do something fun”
Asking volunteers to paid is an insane concept.
@silver_zelda

If you believe it is a problem, then you also understand that saying "it isn't as pervasive" only serves to minimize the experience of our treaty relatives who do experience violence every day, and our history of colonial violence.

Hey George- youth educator here. Unfortunately lots of parents don't have this conversation with their kids, and that leads to increased in STI and unintended pregnancy rates. Schools provide a safe, neutral place where students can engage thoughtfully.

It’s baffling, honestly. Not only do they get corporate donations, but they also get a % of entry fees, merch, food sales etc. Most if not all players are sponsored & hotels comp players.
But yes the $250 in merch you’re “gifting me” (a work uniform) is going to break the bank.
@TerinaNelson_7
what are your motivations in posting this Terina?
because posting about your ‘good deeds’ online for recognition means your motivation is selfish. makes the deed tokenistic and exploitative and does not make you seem selfless but in fact the opposite.
I cannot stress this enough, portables are meant to be temporary.
What are the next steps? build more schools? Hire more teachers? Create permanent spaces?
portables are cold & not well insulated for sound. wind, snow, rain and soccer balls are painfully loud.
To help address classroom space impacted by our growing province, we are providing $32 million in new funding for 45 additional relocatable classrooms. Communities receiving relocatables include Humboldt, Lloydminster, Lumsden, Pilot Butte, Regina, Saskatoon, Warman and Weyburn.

This is a great learning experience! We do not need to compare the experience of our treaty relatives to that of the

movement. We can recognize their pain as very real and valid, and the pain and tragedy of
#BLM
as valid too. Both can exist without across border comparisons.

It has nothing to do with being irresponsible. Students pay their debt monthly only to continue watch what they owe, grow. That’s why it’s predatory.
For example:

amount paid: 98,000
amount outstanding: 168,000

“You must pay & guarantee you’ll work 4, 5 hour shifts (minimum) & wear our uniform to complete critical tasks that if unmanned would immediately cause the event to collapse.”
Sounds like they are actually looking for employees & instead are using “event” status to profit.

Yes, many mass graves has been found and many more are yet to be uncovered. It likely took so long because many of these graves were undocumented, and only a small % of deaths were evert recorded.
If you want to learn more, there is a free online course-
so.
bargaining was scheduled for last week. You didn’t show up.
the STF notified you that they wouldn’t be there today.
you rented this room knowing they wouldn’t be there, I assume with the intent to try and shame the STF for not showing up?
right?
Our team is at the table ready to bargain. The teachers’ union won’t come to the table and has already said there will be more job action when classes resume next week.
Teachers and students should be in the classroom.
The teachers’ union should be at the bargaining table.

Canadian here!! A ton of marijuana is transported through the mail daily in discrete, scent free packaging. When I have seen it, I couldn't tell the different between it and a regular parcel. It's law up here. I'd be more worried about amazon packages!
Today my doctor said “I’m not concerned about your weight. You’re active and healthy. I will only worry about your weight if you are worried, you know your body best and there is nothing for me to worry about” and it was the most affirming care I have EVER received.

Amy when you paid for daycare in the 80s it was not $600+ dollars per week per kid. But sure go off like you know what you’re talking about.
I couldn't imagine working in a 6 figure salary position living securely and in comfort saying things like "it takes time" to effect change.
Our houseless community is living without the comforts you afford and are literally dying on our streets. They don't have time.
