「 Until Then 」 🕯️

we are old friends, you and I. you knew me before you arrived here, and though you will know me still throughout your journey, for a time we shall be fated to pass as ships in the night. you are wrought with sorrow now, yes. but this is but the close of one chapter. be courageous, turn the page. there are many more ahead. share with me your wonderful story when I meet you again at the epilogue.

very happy that the prose i add to my works resonate with people ;;

i don't have much time for it nowadays, but i greatly enjoy writing poetry and short stories. means a lot that other people enjoy the small snippets as much as they do

I'll apologize to those who followed me for art and pictures of nature. I know y'all didn't come here to watch me metaphorically bite worm-brained politicians.

Unfortunately Danielle Smith (The Alberta Premier) and the United Conservative Party (Alberta's Republicans) are being freaky creeps about transgender people again and now it's everyone's problem in Alberta, Canada.

Danielle couldn't function on a school board and got fired. I don't want her trash bin paws meddling with ANYTHING to do with ANY students, trans or not.

"trash bin paws" isn't just a throwaway diss btw. girl really was known as Trash Can Dani for a while oof

Bill 29: The Fairness and Safety in Sport Act

Danielle Smith and the United Conservative Party are being creepy weird about children again and since this also directly targets people like me [trans people] I have opted to skip the niceties cut scene and get right down to choosing violence.

Seriously, I cannot be the only person weirded out over how creepily obsessed Danielle Smith and the United Conservative Party are over trans people. They talk more about trans people than anything else. Just in October they pushed out three anti-trans bills - the above included. For what? There's MAYBE 2000 trans kids out of the 800,000 students in the whole province. It's pretty damn insane they're trying to legalize gender checks on children at all.

Ofc, some people are waving it off saying "No! It's just for the trans kids!! >:C". Nah mate. If your kid is a slight bit too effeminate or masculine or just plainly doesn't fit the Gender Roles, you bet their ass is getting reported by faculty members acting in bad faith. Hope you aren't aiming for sport scholarships in college / university👍

Some people are also whining about trans people having "athletic advantages" again so lemme say here: I have cis friends who played girl's rugby in high school. They were VERY capable of decimating the boys. If your cis kid can't measure up against a trans kid, that's just a straight up skill issue. get good maybe? lmao

This ain't the time to take the moral high road. If Danielle Smith and the United Conservative Party want to throw the tiny 0.3% of Albertans under the bus in the name of snatching authority over kids' bodily autonomy, then yeah I Will stoop to their level and be a dick about it because that shit is unhinged freak behavior. They keep saying trans people are out to get their kids but girl... the call is coming from INSIDE THE HOUSE

I get that Shit's Fucked but i need the other canadians in the room to start paying attention to our own upcoming problem

we're so wrapped up in american politics we barely know our own

"Are you ok?" I'm actually tired bro. From the bottom of my heart I'm tired

i've been so tired of google's new legal liability bot sitting on top of the existing highlighted result, taking up page space and either parroting exactly what the highlighted result said or offering completely unrelated or incorrect results, that i actually cheered when this came up:

"oh but AI is experimental -"

the bot told people to eat glue on pizza. you can talk yourself blue in the face about the bot's learning curve and how "it'll be improved with time", but maybe a bot being touted as the latest and greatest in scouring the internet for accurate information should not come with a permanent glaring disclaimer of "it's still learning / results may not be accurate!" as the generative AI ouroboros continues to keep on chewing.

Listen okay I'm no Swiftie but I know these tickets in the charity auction could actually raise some meaningful funds that'd go towards crucial support and resources for residential school survivors and their families.

IRSSS does wonderful work, extending their help not only to Indigenous communities impacted by residential schools, but also to families of Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women & Girls as well as Indigenous youth who may be struggling with the criminal justice system.

Regardless if you're a Swift fan or not though, if you're in the Vancouver area consider checking out the upcoming IRSSS Anniversary Gala on November 21, 2024:
