@amacommunity.bsky.social doubt this is monitored, but just in case, your automated phone reception system in Red Deer really sucks. Spent 15 minutes trying to speak to a person to cancel an appointment I made at reception desk yesterday with an insurance advisor.

I saw yesterday that some right-wing outlets were running stories about me, which I’m used to. But this time I’m going to say something about it, because these were framed to imply that I was aligned with their own transphobia. ⬇️

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

The Banal Horror of Jimmy Fallon
Under the sterile blue lights of his studio, Fallon laughs endlessly at the same pseudo-jokes, rubs elbows with Trump and Sam Altman, and ushers in the death of culture.

The evidence is increasingly pointing to the probability that an ICE agent killed a woman after misreading her as a threat because he was distracted by his simultaneous effort to record her so he could upload her image to a facial recognition database.

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…
A screenshot of a Facebook post where a person named Andy ask the Well now “What the hell is transgender?”
The Royal Canadian Air Force account response with “That’s a pretty big question asked in a pretty small way, Andy.

‘Transgender’ putting  describes someone whose gender – who they know themselves to be – doesn’t match the sex they were assigned at birth. It’s not new, and it’s certainly not a fad. People have lived this experience for as long as people have existed; we’re just finally talking about it openly.

You don’t have to fully understand it right away, most learning takes time, but we can always start from a place of respect. That’s how decent folks handle things they’re still getting used to.”

Mamdani is already cleaning up the NYPD!
Screenshot of a tweet from Officer Lew (@officer_Lew) on Twitter. The tweet reads:

“CONFIRMED: Spoke to at least 6 NYPD officers and they told me that many of the rank and file have already started to put their early retirement papers in and are actively looking for departments in North Carolina, Tennessee and Florida. All thanks to Zohran Mamdani getting elected..”

Below the tweet are three images in a collage:

1. Zohran Mamdani smiling and looking to the side on a city street, wearing a dark blazer and white shirt.

2. An NYPD SUV parked at an intersection in Times Square with people walking nearby.

3. A group of NYPD officers standing in uniform indoors, hands folded in front.

Re-upping this piece once more because it was a long time in the making. But also because after he was wrongly accused by media outlets, law firms, and politicians, Silverman deserves to have as many people read about his vindication as possible.
