[THREAD]

I have seen a lot of people asking why people on ODSP or OW should be eligible for CERB. The argument seems to be "Their situation hasn't changed, so why do they need more money?"
Quick non-COVID related background: OW and ODSP are not indexed to inflation. So people using those programs have effectively been given a pay cut every year, for decades. Because even years that rates have been raised, it is never enough to get caught up on inflation.
Using the Bank of Canada Inflation Calculator, OW rates need to be raised by 44% (to $12444 a year) and ODSP rates need to be raised by 56% (to $17488 a year) in order to be the equivalent to what they were in 1993 <--- !!!

Celebrating Adele's weight loss is a garbage thing to do for a million reasons. Here are two:

1. It tells your fat friends you think their bodies are a problem to be solved.

2. The weight loss could be the result of physical or mental health struggles. Weird to cheer about!
I had a nervous breakdown two years ago and was unable to eat. My heart was constantly racing to the point where my Fitbit tracked me doing 15 hours of cardio on a day I didn't leave my bed. I lost over 20% my body weight in four months.
If people saw a picture of me before and after, probably they'd think the after version was healthier (and some kind of achievement). In reality, this illness did lasting damage to my digestive system that I need to have a camera down my throat next month to assess.

A thread:

ATTENTION PROGRESSIVE MEN. No one has been more critical of Elizabeth May's stance on abortion than I have. But reproductive justice is under attack all the time, and Elizabeth May is hardly the reason that access is as limited as it already is.

#Elexn43 #cdnpoli
The abortion apologist nonsense Elizabeth May spouts is completely toxic and absolutely enables attitudes that result in limiting reproductive rights. Do not attempt to mansplain this to me.
But if the only time you post about this issue is during elections, and if you primarily target those posts at the party that is the biggest threat to the party you support*, it honestly doesn't feel to me like you care very much about this issue.

* AND THE PARTY I SUPPORT TOO.

[#elxn43 Thread] Sincere question for those who insist on replying to every critical post about Justin Trudeau's brown/blackface with an assertion that Andrew Scheer is worse: 1. Do you actually think we don't know this?
2. What is it that you think we should do instead? Ignore it? Not discuss its impact or implications at all? Pretend it didn't happen? Look past the pain it has caused, because someone else is worse? #elxn43
Here's the thing! You can be critical of what he did, and still vote Liberal! It's so intellectually dishonest to pretend otherwise! #elxn43

BLACK PEOPLE IN CANADA WERE PROTESTING BLACKFACE NEARLY 200 YEARS AGO. STOP SAYING "NO ONE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS SORT OF THING IN 2009". #cdnpoli #elxn43
There is a timeline document about the history of Blackface in Canada. Montreal, 1850:

I admit I didn't know any of this!

Cool. I am expected to use @BeaconCBT for mental health support at work, despite their useless response to my flagging that it's irresponsible and triggering that their online intake has a required question about weight. They won't help me unless I tell them what I weigh? Brutal.
@BeaconCBT Oh cool it looks like the CEO supports the recent massive cuts to provincial mental health support systems.

@BeaconCBT Oh my actual god. So I completed @BeaconCBT's online assessment honestly (except for saying I weighed 11 pounds).
