⚠️ Peaceful protest is a human right.

⚠️ Freedom of speech is a human right.

⚠️ Freedom of expression is a human right.

⚠️ Universities should respect these rights.

Another more serious thing that really stood out to me is that Toronto has really really good public transit compared to Denver. I know it’s a much bigger city than Denver but man our transit back home here is *really* bad. Apparently they’re decreasing the main rail corridor between downtown and the tech center to 1 train per hour too which is just laughable
Took a trip to Canada over the weekend and it’s really funny how back in the states our drinking age is 21. I’m 20 and perfectly capable of knowing when to exercise restraint and stop drinking. And, hell, many people past 21 don’t.
I’m not saying we should be giving booze to 12 year olds but the fact that I could go and buy a gun or join the military but I can’t be trusted with a beer is pretty fuckin ridiculous
Got super lucky yesterday and ended up in the one place near Toronto without heavy cloud cover obscuring the eclipse. Friend snapped this absolutely glorious shot. Missed my flight home but it was sooooo worth it. #eclipse #eclipse2024 #toronto

If you know an autistic person, you’re probably aware that April is “Autism Awareness Month.” What you might not know, however, is that April is a month of pure hell for #ActuallyAutistic folx.

The concept originated in 1970, when we understood a lot less about autism than we do today. Since then, the month has been co-opted by groups like Autism Speaks for fundraising. But what neurotypical people don’t realize is that the vast majority of these groups are actually

considered to be hate-groups by the #ActuallyAutistic community. So much of the discourse and dialogue around autism has centered NT people. When you consider NTs to be the ‘norm’ and NDs to be outside of that norm, the discussion veers toward “how do we help them be normal?”

It's a thread! 🧵

Trump has less than a week to arrange a $454 million bond. There are 331.9 million US citizens. If each American spends only $1.37, then we can all buy a cheap chocolate bar to enjoy while we watch the State of New York seize Trump's properties.
