I’d rather look at this than lawns that nobody ever sits on or uses for sports.

4 Months ago Stormzy couldn't walk with a brain injury. He'd been told he had to be put to sleep.

Today I got to go and visit him in his new home.

The world needs more Stormzy right now!!! Can't stop smiling after today

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote.

Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

The cruelty and inhumanity of this Administration’s policies have left another person deadβ€”as CBP dropped off Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a nearly blind refugee living in Buffalo NY, alone on a cold winter night miles from his home.

This cruelty must end.

Don’t have your same diagnoses, but did suffer whole adult life with familial untreatable migraines. They would always assume I was depressed, offer a new antidepressant and wave me away. Migraines finally stopped at menopause. Not being seen or heard properly was exhausting and lonely. I hear you

Sounds like a refinement on β€œstarlight tours”
Cops would drive First Nations folk way out of town then dump them to walk home in wintertime. They were found dead, frozen
They knew this guy couldn’t communicate, knew how vulnerable he was, left him anyway

Democracy is dying in America.

ICE is a murderous secret police force. We’re about to bomb Iran for Israel. Your kids are shot at in school daily, and pedophiles run our government. There’s no healthcare, and your food is poisonous.

We need real leaders - not career politicians.

I’m at the point where I’m about to abandon politics as a viable mover of society forward, and instead investing my time and money in organized labour to do its job for it. Nobody else is stepping up for us, not even the Dems (apart from a very stellar few)

🚨 ICE Said He β€œRan Into a Brick Wall.” Nurses Say That’s Impossible. His Skull Was Shattered in 8 Places. Eight fractures. Brain bleeds. A shifting story. And a hospital staff terrified of armed agents. This is Minnesota now.

As I’ve always said: billionaires pay tons of money to make you think your vote doesn’t matter. It’s insidious. Be very wary of anyone who tells you elections don’t matter, or that both sides are the same.

Make a batch of whipped shortbread.Not expensive,but makes a lot.I found that answered the same question when I lived in Saudi Arabia for a decade.If you’re feeling fancy you can dip them in tempered chocolate/nuts or glue them together with jam.I also left fruit baskets on their doorsteps for Eid

We’ve had a lot of winter this winter too. Even here in eastern Ontario, it seems a bit much. We’ve had snow on the ground since mid November, nonstop. Usually we get a melt or two that takes us back to scratch, but this year? 100% cover, and a top up every day or two

Hey #Canada,

#Publichealthcare isn’t being #fundedproperly by the provinces. When the people of a province aren’t having their healthcare needs met, then it’s the #PROVINCIALGOVT who has chosen to underfund the system. Push your MLA’s relentlessly.

It’s not saving money.It’s not saving staff.
