Have YOU had to walk 500 miles?

Were you advised to walk 500 more?

You could be entitled to compensation.

Call the Pro Claimers now!

Then I thought who gives a damn if all the jobs are gone, I'm going to be a pirate on the River Saskatchewan!

I miss this song.

> SWAN's office is temporarily closed during the FIFA World Cup due to a heavy police presence and surveillance in the downtown core, and the increased risk of arrest, detention and deportation of im/migrant sex workers.

Sigh. When the “““safety””” measures to “““combat trafficking””” and “““protect women””” lead to organizations ACTUALLY providing safe and effective support to precarious, marginalized (and even up to actually trafficked) women HAVING TO CLOSE… 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Clearly something ain't working right.
Sure isn't for the lack of warnings however. “Maybe” it's actually working just as intended after all… 😮‍💨

Does anyone seriously believe half a word of the official pitches, anyway..? They keep getting more and more shameful by the day.

I note that Elon Musk's wealth now exceeds the annual GDP of Switzerland.

I think this makes him a state-level actor, and a *hostile* one.

I submit that we have tools for dealing with rogue states, and they should be applied to him until/unless he starts to behave. NB: said tools vary from polite talkings-to by diplomats all the way up to cruise missile strikes and invasions.

I'm going to whisper this. So I'll choose my words carefully. I'll use general terms but am referring to specific multiple things. Please read between the lines.

Those of you that are doing things are having a good effect.

- The media is not covering you (this is a good sign. it means they dont want to bring attention to your actions).
- They are discussing you in board rooms and in decision making meetings.
- They are saying things like "we have to pause that project at that location because its currently drawing too much attention" and "we have to reframe this announcement to downplay that thing" and "we need to try these concessions to lower the heat a bit".

They are hoping you "get tired and bored and move to a new thing" so they can get back to work without interference.

Keep doing what you're doing. Join folks that are doing things if you aren't doing anything yet. Do what you can, as you can, when you can.

It is working.
