went to a new optometrist today wearing my squid facts ‘save our freaks dont mine the deep’ shirt from @sarahmackattack that has a strawberry squid on it. and i wasn’t even thinking about it but the optometrist walked in and he was like ‘oh what does your shirt say’ so i showed him and he was like ‘oh that’s neat!’ and then i thought he might like to know about strawberry squid eyes since they have weird eyes and he is an optometrist and all. so i was like ‘yeah it’s actually a real kind of squid called a strawberry squid, their eyes are really cool because they have one big yellow-green one and one small blue one’ and he kind of gasped and went ‘oh my god that’s so interesting i wonder why they have that. do you know what their retina composition is like?’ and i watched as he minimized my chart on the computer and started looking up images of strawberry squid and then he googled ‘strawberry squid retina composition’ and he was like ‘sorry we’ll get to your eye exam in a moment i just really want to find out’ LMAO 10/10 optometrist experience will be returning

bringing back my too woke opinion that you should be allowed to change labels without the previous one being incorrect

[infizero]

i think you should be allowed to identify as trans without retroactively saying you were also trans in the past. i think the "born this way" rhetoric is limiting and you should be able say stuff like "i was fully a girl when i was a kid and now im a boy" without it invalidating your current identity but maybe that's just me

Goddamned Mezolithic Megafauna’s what that is. Goddamned warranty expired on those things centuries ago, but do they care? Do they go decently extinct, like the ground sloth, gigantopethicus, or wooly rhino? Fuck that, they’re doing downhill runs on your favorite skiing course is what. Because Fuck it, is why.

Now I understand why moose are built the way they are.

It’s so they can gallop untrammelled through six-odd feet of snow.

I'm pretty much a homebody, don't really go out much and I've been trying to get out more and make friends but it's basically felt like a repeat of being in school. I try to meet up with groups or people and it's like, not just being the last one picked but not getting picked at all, or being asked to leave or that 'the group is getting too big' but it's always me that is the straw that breaks the camels back. I'm always the one that ends up being left out or cast aside.

I went on a stupid mental health walk today and went past a cemetery and I honestly wanted to go lie down next to a grave because at this point it sometimes feels like the dead are the only ones who don't get sick of me. Or if the dead are sick of me at least they don't say anything, or snap at me when I ask a question or need clarification.

And I know it's not just my rejection sensitive dysphoria, sure that's a part of it but when you keep getting rejected it becomes pretty obvious that 'it's you' ya'know?

At least my cat loves me.

DS9 as a show dares to ask the important questions, like for example “would Star Trek still be good if it was set at the food court at the mall??” and the answer to that is “yes, and actually it will somehow be better”

Nothing shuts down a bougie conversation like "well, when I was homeless—" Nothing. It's one and done. They are fucking taken out. The conversation is dead. Done.

[hewasmadeofthegalaxy-deactivate]

"there's enough charities in place to help our homeless population"

Well I was turned away from every single one in the area because I was a non Christian trans person. Not that there were many I could make the walk to, to be fair.

"if someone is homeless, they can just forage for food! Probably eating healthier than we are har har har!"

I was homeless in winter. And yeah, sure, I knew how to use pine needles to make tea and boil bark but. Come on. You think every homeless person has that fucking knowledge or resources? And I was homeless on a mountain. What about people who are homeless in cities? What are they going to forage? Gravel? And what about areas where foraging is illegal? You want them to get arrested? In a police state like this?

"well as long as they don't get into trouble, there won't be trouble!"

You make laws criminalizing their existence. The "trouble" they make is surviving. I got the cops called on me because I went for a walk. I had a stick I was using to help me walk because I have a limp and couldn't afford a cane. A fucking white couple saw me and called the cops and told them I was walking "with a rifle" and was "very threatening". I got DAMNED lucky that a Light horseman found me first and told me what happened. Laughed a little. Told me not to worry about it, he'd call it in as bogus, and have a talk with the couple. But again. I was lucky. If that had been a state cop and not a rez one, I could have been fucking shot. For walking.

Honestly, if you are not for the liberation of homeless people, if you are not for decriminalizing homelessness and all aspects of it, if you say things like, "now I support those people, but I wish I didn't have to see it, because it makes me uncomfy," you have swallowed the propaganda pill. Congrats. You were not immune to it and now you are sick with it.

[cumaeansibyl]

"I wish I didn't have to see it" in anti-homeless discussions always takes me out. I wish I didn't have to see it too! I wish people weren't out on the streets dealing with hunger, weather, untreated health issues, rough sleeping, theft and assault, police brutality. If I never had to see that again I would be extremely happy.

But the answer I come to is "let's get those people resources and safe housing" and the answer everyone else seems to come to is "let's arrest them, destroy all their stuff, and kick them out of town." Because when they see someone suffering, somehow the most important thing about that is their own discomfort and not the fact of human suffering.

[thelawfulchaotic]

Everyone in criminal justice work in this county, when asked about why there is no homeless shelter, will viciously say, “oh, (locality) doesn’t have a homelessness problem!” in the most brutally sarcastic fake-cheerful tone I’ve ever heard. In one sentence, what is conveyed by everyone from prosecutors to social workers is a scathing indictment of delusional politicians who think that if there is no shelter, there will be no homeless to seek shelter. I don’t know anyone who’s actually involved in the decision making process but the statement is always identical.

‘We’re losing control of our communities’: First Nations in states of emergency as Doug Ford pushes to mine the north

As Ontario government sells off the north to international mining companies, communities in crisis are demanding safety and healing instead

Ontario Provincial Police arrested two suspects on Thursday following a two-day, shelter-in-place order in Ginoogaming First Nation and the neighbouring town of Longlac. OPP charged them with second degree murder in the shooting death of Ginoogaming man Sebastian Towegishig. Another victim has been transported 300 kilometres west to Thunder Bay to receive intensive care for gunshot wounds.

First Nations across far northern Ontario are now calling on Canada and Ontario’s governments to make a priority of ridding their communities of illicit drugs, some making public safety a prerequisite to conversations about mining.

Ginoogaming has been under a state of emergency since May 2024, when Chief Sheri Taylor and her council called for a full-time police presence to contend with drugs and gangs. She reiterated that state of emergency, claiming Canada and Ontario need to support her beyond “band-aid” solutions.
