Sara The Fat Culture Critic No to 51🇨🇦

Black text on a trans flag: There is no larger issue for me than my right to exist and participate in society as my authentic self. If that's a purity test, then so be it.

When the opinion in question is that I have a right to continued existence as my authentic self, I expect 100% alignment. As a bare minimum.

Call it entitlement if you like. I call it life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Is pharmacare on ice? Health minister says no new deals with provinces in the works | CBC News Canada’s public drug insurance program appears to be in limbo, with the Carney government failing to earmark any new money to expand coverage to the rest of the country.

Only B.C., Manitoba, P.E.I. and Yukon have signed deals so far.

“That’s worrying,” said Teale Phelps Bondaroff with AccessBC, a grassroots group that successfully lobbied for free contraceptives in British Columbia and has advocated for access across the country."

'Systemic failure': Advocacy group calls for easier access to pain relief during IUD insertions An advocacy group in B.C. is calling for easier access to pain relief for patients when getting an intrauterine device (IUD) inserted.

DAY 3 STARTS TODAY!!!
(STREAMING ON THE TIRRRB YOUTUBE CHANNEL)

We're fundraising all week for 7th gen, a communal org that brings meals/supplies/shelter to those that need it most!!
Our relatives and fellow citizens are out there freezing right now!

Let's change that : chuffed.org/project/1409...

Their formula is simple: rules don’t apply to the ones doing the ruling. That’s one of the few things authoritarians are consistent on

I’m going to be doing some volunteering for a reproductive advocacy group in my province. Taking action is the antidote to apathy

Alice is the one who taught me the power, joys, nuances and challenges of online disability communities--at a time when my own disability was making me more housebound.

I remain forever grateful to her, for showing me what could be possible, but also what remains to be done.

See you there

We are so close to meeting the Al-Ashal family's relocation goal. Donations have started to slow down slightly, so please keep sharing and give if you can! ❤️

Why would you owe the party unity? You’re their constituent, they owe you.

Five away!!

Let's sweeten the deal- you get me to 10k, I'll do a celebratory stream that will include me playing a scary video game or something!

No one is, but it is not for us to decide what times we live in. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

Do it! Even if you don’t win, by running you can change the conversation to what matters

Isn’t it spectacular

Sounds frightfully serious to me.

The funny thing is the pharmacist was also fat, but middle-aged-spread fat as opposed to nasty-looks-on-planes fat

They’re always obsessed with weight and all the risks when they want to blame us or sell us something. But when I take the initiative for accommodation they look at me like I’ve grown an extra head.

Also I hate how I sound saying I have done my own research

Fun times being fat and seeking healthcare. I always ask for the long needles with my jabs. Pharmacist:“oh no it’s usually fine”
I insist because the studies indicate it matters for very fat people
“Well I don’t mind but it’s usually fine”
You don’t mind, it’s my arm buddy and I feel it

I don’t know about you, but I’m always happy to be unserious by those people’s standards.

Currently waiting to get my booster and flu shot. Not the most fun errand, but vital.

He’s a very supportive slug and cute af

Great piece

Sending hugs

I’m curious to see exactly what wrong lessons the establishment Dems learn from this

My most earnest interpretation is this is a person who is generally angry about the state of things and using your comment section to shout about it.

The argument is possibly coherent inside their head, but gibberish on the page.

Murphy’s Law won today, but hopefully folks will be able to join us in a fortnight
