IDAHOBIT – IDAHOBIT

I have no words. My beautiful student, River, has had a devastating car accident. They are a nonbinary, disabled young person fighting their way through poverty to finish college, and they have been my student worker and dear friend for three years. Please give in any amount if you can. We fight every day on a systemic level to help students like River. Today is a day to just bring the cash right to a human who desperately needs it. https://gofund.me/c4da737d

Please share if you can.

Spring tulips in front of our place! Some blooming, others on the way. #bloomscrolling #florespondence

Every year I take a photo when crocuses bloom in front of our place in Vancouver, BC. Usually it’s earlier in February but we had a snowstorm a couple of weeks ago that delayed things. #BloomScrolling #florespondence

I already boosted this, but I want to add more emphasis. I think every Canadian citizen of the Fediverse ought to sign this petition to get the Government of Canada off Xitter: https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-5359

Could anyone who has any Canadian followers please boost or just re-post it yourself? This matters.
