Public Universal Friend (they/them)

this actually still fucking sucks because it’s still mocking disability and framing it as punishment. this dem influencer account posts shit like this regularly, and it sucks that some of my oomfies still follow it

Holy niche skeet, Batman!

In elementary school when we had pizza or hot dog days you had your choice of Beep or Vi-Co... which is for some reason what chocolate milk was called in Saskatchewan. (Hoodies were bunnyhugs ofc.) AMA.

I'd say similar to Tang or Sunny D?

According to my math, that's exactly correct.

Don't know how to feel about the fact that this is probably the only thing I ever said on Bluesky that more than 6 people will see...

When we're here, we're 38.

Well, in all fairness...they did k*ll Ch*rlie K*rk.

Listening to a podcast on the Satanic panic RN and I fear that is not what we need. 😂

FML.

So did BC, but unfortunately decrim has been pared back to next to nothing because we let public opinion dictate public health policy.

Hold placed and the wait doesn't look that bad!!! Thanks for the rec!

The Light Eaters: How the Unseen World of Plant Intelli… Award-winning environment and science reporter Zoë Schl…

Oh btw, if you have the capacity for non-fiction right now- this book about plants is super good and is on Libby. www.goodreads.com/book/show/19...

You can have a little rare heritage seeds as a treat.

h/t @jstewgie.bsky.social for passing this on.

Thank you! I needed someone with a law degree to give me the skinny on this.

Joe vs the Volcano is a *deep* cut, my friend. I'm definitely feeling like I have a brain cloud but maybe I should get a second opinion...

A screenshot of the TC article with the headline "Victoria council refuses to call for supervised consumption sites to be shut down".

1/3 Wow… the @timescolonist.bsky.social is really letting their biases show. Saying "refuses to call for" sounds like they removed a staff recommendation or a well reasoned report, instead of what they did: reject an unserious, poorly thought out, non-evidence based spam motion from one councillor.

Devastating. They were saving lives. A prime example of how legal and moral are not always the same thing.

Rock music and honking from supporters Andrew Kurjata I’ve been checking in on various livestreams from farm supporters who have made their way to the farm. For months, this story has attracted organizations and individuals who see the cull as an example of government overreach — similar to COVID-19 health mandates and the like. Those videos have been reaching hundreds and sometimes thousands of followers. More ostriches have been rounded up into a smaller pen within the perimeter set up by the CFIA as people blare their horns and rock music, including We’re Not Gonna Take It and We Will Rock You, alongside some more reflective tunes.

NOT ROCK MUSIC.

Ostriches appear to be evading roundup Andrew Kurjata I just spoke with my colleagues in the field and they say CFIA agents aren’t having much luck yet corralling the ostriches. The agents are using what appears to be orange plastic fencing and walking toward the birds, who are running away in groups. Meanwhile, supporters are still yelling at the agents to stop and urging the birds to save themselves.

Why am I back to rooting for the ostriches now?!

A pink crochet uterus that functions as a drawstring bag

My friend had a hysterectomy today so I made them a replacement uterus that functions as a drawstring bag and put some care items inside.

He was so young.

Not me, I'm being a jester.

This sounds like you shared a diagnosis with him. "Unfortunately I have Swiftie energy and they're not sure there's a cure..."

I don't think Marg Gardiner can afford him, Corey.

He's too busy trying to hype John Rustad up so he doesn't resign and leave Ryan unemployed. He's run out of pivots to make.

Omg are you not sacrificing goats as part of your land acknowledgements?! They don't work if you don't spill blood!
