When I had my hysterectomy, I was told recovery would be quick because I was young, fit & otherwise healthy. They were wrong. The surgeon made an error and despite signs of post op bleeding, discharged me & went on vacation. When I returned to the ER, I was ignored & gaslit 🧵

~This is epic! People are fed up with Poilievre. Some are putting that extra effort into stopping him.
Hi all. I've never posted here before, but I just wanted to share that my partner, Robert Davis, who's quiet, steady, no lover of the spotlight or politics, is going to run as an independent against Pierre in the by-election! He doesn't think he can win AT ALL but said he's going to spend every night knocking on doors. As a lifelong Alberta boy who's never moved out of his beloved province, he's going to run as an independent anyway if even just to make an attempt at our area (we live in Camrose) having representation. The kids and I are in shock, but he always does what he says, so I guess he's doing it. Now it's to figure out how!. He asked if I think he's crazy, and I said even the attempt is honourable. Full stop. Meanwhile, there are twelve of us between bio and adopted kids, and to quote our 16 year old "Who? You? What? No really? You? Why? Oh, well that's awesome..  anyway Dad, can I borrow the truck?" lol*** edit to add*** YOU guys are why I feel so proud to be a Canadian. Thank you all for the kind words. No wonder people everywhere remark on our spirit of kindness and helpfulness, humility, intelligence, resilience, and good humour in good times and bad. No matter what happens, he is going to try and at least get people thinking of a different outcome. We will listen to all ideas and thoughts, because this issue is way bigger than just our riding. Robert and I are going to try and cover all costs for running in the byelection, as we know money for everyone is hard to come by. We might have to set up a fund as is being encouraged here. I hope not, because we aren't "money" people. We really don't care about the money, and prefer people to send us ideas and thoughts and help us get the word out instead of money. We might need some for flyers and signs and that kind of thing if we can't cover it or get donations, but not sure on anything else. Thanks everyone 🩷

The photo shows a close up of their trouser hems. The trousers are too long, causing a lot of fabric to puddle around the ankles.

Not true. I'll give you some examples of when styles crossed over from womenswear to menswear, and how men have worn straight-up womenswear or just feminine styles in cool ways. 🧵
A screenshot from Twitter. 

The original tweet reads: "Rapper Kenderick Lamar wore size 29 women's jeans to Super Bowl LIX." The tweet garnered over a thousand replies, most negative. 

I (Derek Guy) screenshotted that tweet and wrote: "so funny to see history repeat itself. men who wear slim fit and stretch denim—both of which were once considered strictly for women—criticizing kendrick for wearing flares bc they were on the women's aisle. in ten years, you'll be in flares clutching pearls about something else"

Then another user replied to my tweet, saying: "Wearing women’s clothes has never been in style, homo."

The biggest reason why I dislike the idea of respectability in dress is because it conflates the *appearance* of virtue with *actual* virtue. Wearing a suit doesn't make you respectful, intelligent, or capable, just as wearing a leather jacket doesn't make you rugged.
