Hitting "not interested" on ever single wedding ad after the wedding is the best feeling on the planet

Avoid the violence/nonviolence debate. It’s a trap.

The only thing that matters is what actions lead to more justice and less harm.

Inaction and complicity in the face of brutal oppression is the worst form of violence. Never forget it.

Catching up on stuff and "we shouldn't donate to starving people but rather affect systemic change" is... a take

(I'm sure the starving person appreciates that you're working towards systemic change πŸ™„
Also: this isn't either/or)

PA warns fans they’ll face criminal charges for throwing things on the ice.

They should announce that if fans throw things on the ice, they’ll run the same group back again for a 10th year.

POTUS says Canada would pay lower taxes as part of the US. The net average individual tax rate in the US is 24.2%. Canada's is 25.6% and they get health care with it.

At some pint, many many people are going to have to ask themselves why they’re so obsessed with punishment, what is the goal, and has that preoccupation made them feel any better or safer.

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure.

- Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes
- We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles
- We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

I got into Harry Potter as a teen before it blew up - my mom was a librarian and gave me the first one to read

I loved them for a long time

JK Rowling is a fascist TERF who wants to kill my friends and she and the entire series can go to hell, she’ll never see a cent from me again

Good Store's got some big news... We've officially donated 10 million dollars to charity! 

Here's a quick reminder of where that money is going and what it is doing.

Awesome Socks Club & Sun Basin Soap: The Maternal Center of Excellence

The project that started it all - The Maternal Center of Excellence is a state of the art hospital in Sierra Leone that, when finished, will provide much needed medical care for millions of women across the country. When we started working to raise money for this project, Sierra Leone had the highest maternal mortality rate in the world. Thankfully from the hard work of healthcare workers in Sierra Leone and Partners In Health, the mortality rate is already falling, and hopefully when the hospital is finished it will become a foundational part of the healthcare system that keeps those numbers down for good.

Keats & Co: Tuberculosis Care

Tuberculosis has been a theme for the last couple of years, and luckily our friends at Partners In Health are already on the case. When we merged tea and coffee, we decided to direct our donations from this new project towards Partners In Health's tuberculosis care program in Lesotho, a country with the highest instance of the disease in the world. Tackling an infectious disease is a many armed campaign, which means that the team at Partners In Health is not only treating active cases, they're tracking outbreaks, providing preventative care, and working on creating a robust country wide network of facilities with the necessary equipment.

EcoGeek: The Coral Reef Alliance

And finally, our newest partner, the Coral Reef Alliance! EcoGeek is living up to it's name and donating 100% of it's profit to a group that is working on tackling coral reef die out in the Pacific Ocean. (Not a small task.) Specifically, we're donating to their Maui Watershed Restoration Project which takes coral reef protection from the water to the land. The Coral Reed Alliance is replanting the shoreline with native plants to curb erosion and halt sediment run off into the ocean which can block out light, killing the reefs and the animals that rely on them to live.

Ten Million??!? Thats ten whole millions. We can't thank this community enough for helping us donate to Partners In Health and the Coral Reef Alliance, your orders are helping to change the world one package at a time.

Advice that you didn't ask for from a stranger: LED lamps and LED polishes are pretty cheap to get now, makes the cleanup way easier, because the cured polish chips off skin easily.

For me, fighting fascism has nothing to do with thinking I’ll win. I don’t fight because there’s an inevitable outcome, I fight because I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t do something.

This is my β€œdaughter of a Black Panther breakfast program volunteer” coming out but anyone who tells you that you have to be public about all your resistance activity should immediately be under suspicion for being an op, or being under the influence of an op

Trans rights are human rights, because if one person isn’t free to be who they are, then none of us are free.
