I wasn't going to watch men's Olympic hockey. But after yesterday's current events from the disgraceful AB premier & knowing Geriatric Joffrey was about to have a tariff tantrum, I thought I'd just watch a minute of the game for distraction. Finland about killed me. What a game. May they win bronze

I was not a fan of his (his skating didn’t connect with me even though his talent is inarguable, but I watched him lose and immediately get up from the kiss and cry and congratulate the gold medalist. Mad respect to him. Gold medal behaviour right there.

I used to worry about spending too much time doomscrolling and if I would spend the remainder of my life with a device attached to my thumbs. Turns out, a daily menu of hatred, Trumpism, transphobia and ignorance was all I needed to never want to be online.

Never mind. Apparently I knew this already! Still vile commentary from that arse.

Can’t wait to see how much more she carves from the disabled. Maybe she will steal from children and seniors too. We know she won’t increase taxes on her buddies.

My husband is currently decommissioning a nuclear site and my mind boggles at the thought toxic waste was just dumped and not remediated. Dear gawd. This is a horrifying moment of our history that needs to be addressed.

I am busting my son out of his group home this weekend to force him to watch the new The Muppet Show with me because life is short and Miss Piggy is eternal and by golly, my children WILL know the magic of snarky ass puppets if it's the only thing I ever teach them. It is my time to shine.

The Wendy’s in Wetaskiwin has seen more of my money than any fast food chain, anywhere, thanks to its proximity to my son’s place and the fact that I too, fuck with their taco salad. It’s the only fast food I will eat.

Just received a lovely letter from the Albertan government reminding me they will be stealing money from my disabled son because they believe 1901 dollars a month makes severely disabled people rich. The new seat for his wheelchair is almost 6000 dollars but hey; let’s not talk about that.

Sitting in the parking lot trying to work up the energy to go grocery shopping, knowing that it’s going to cost a fortune and that I’m going to run into treasonous separatists. I dislike this timeline.

I’m not sure if it was a deer, a moose, the world’s largest porcupine standing on a bunny & waving its arms, or Big Foot himself, but something was lurking in the forest when I took my dogs out for their nightly routine & freaked them out. I’m too young to die while my dogs pee & nature scares me.

Jean Chrétien will be my forever favourite prime minister. Stephen Harper will likely be one of my least favourites, forever.

I do not often feel verklempt over celebrities deaths. But the news of Catherine O'Hara's passing has really kicked me in the gut, in a way I did not expect. I expected her to live forever as an indomitable queen of comedy and as one of my Canadian icons ought to. Thank you Catherine.

Yeah Smith, as an Albertan I would sure like to hear your unequivocal opinion on the matter. Quit hiding and tenderfooting the issue. Are you with Canadians or are you a separatist? Albertans would like to know. Speak up.

Tanis Miller 🍁 @tanis.bsky.social · 29/01/2026
Fuck Albertan separatists and honestly, a big middle finger to anyone who lumps every Albertan in with those losers. I am, and always will be Canadian.

My daughter is an emergency room nurse here in AB so I am aware of the logistical nightmare hospital staff face, with the influx of contagious patients, a lack of masking and a lack of vaxxing. It's a nightmare in every direction. Not just for the patients but for the never ending risk to staff.

Thinking of all those school aged kids who died for the 2A only to have the President of the United States of America declare "You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't." Thoughts and prayers to all the gun lovers.

This will not comfort you, but when my husband had major thoracic surgery last year, he was placed in a room with a Covid positive patient and was then placed in isolation. It was terrible. We took all the precautions. Wore the N95s. And the hospital was the problem. Good luck to you.

I started studying policing but I took a religion and the law class just to fill a schedule gap and it shook everything up and complemented my original studies so well that I just expanded my studies.

When I returned to university a few years ago during a midlife crisis, I took a lot of flack for choosing to study religion AND policing. Useless degrees, they said. But I wanted, NEEDED to know more about the systems used to oppress people & harm communities. I have yet to regret my choice.

Ew. The sleet and rain make it so much worse. Stay warm. Keep off the ice. (Unless you have skates on, and then have fun!)

How much snow did you get down there? (I'm kinda jealous because we got extreme cold and only a light dusting of snow.)

It’s the only way to deal with these people while they are hypnotized with propaganda. Until they feel the direct impact of the harms they support, they will reject your words, call you a liar and cling to their ideology. Harm needs to find them. So save yourself, your sanity & carve and starve

I had a convo w/my husband about dealing w/pro-authoritarian & the growing # of separatists surrounding us. It’s rather like trying to bring antivaxxers to science. They reject facts & truths.They double down. The only solution is to carve them out & starve them of your time. Carve and starve.

It is overwhelming to be online today. As a Canadian, it feels terrible watching our American neighbours be gunned down and gaslighted by their government, the same govt that continues to threaten our country, and is idolized by AB separatists and maple MAGAts. It feels really heavy and scary.

The World Cup US location needs to be reconsidered immediately, no matter how many tickets have sold or how high demand is. It is not safe for participants nor spectators. FIFA needs to do the right thing and Infantino needs to show some damn leadership instead of the bootlicking he has done.

Alex Pretti was a helper. His career was helping people. He spent his last moments on earth trying to help a woman. He was murdered for it and then called a domestic terrorist by the tyrants in office. I’m not American but I am enraged for them. Again.

I am so mad. The entire separatist movement is being funded by foreign actors. The US is literally exploiting the dumbest of us all and the media keeps giving them a platform to spread their lies and propaganda. I’m filled with rage about it all.

I'm just so tired of burying children. My own, others. I cannot fathom how it still hurts like it was yesterday but here we are 20 years later & every deceased kid is like reliving my own child's death. Only worse, because unlike the freshly grieving parents, I know there is no end to this sadness.

Tanis Miller 🍁 @tanis.bsky.social · 01/11/2025
Children funerals are one of life's saddest moments. Hug the kids in your life because there is no guarantee they'll live to adulthood. Bless the people who work so hard in the medical professional to try and get as many kids to adulthood as possible. They're all saints. Today was hard.

It's sobering to see how your neighbours, family and friends react in today's political environment. It was one thing to watch them dismiss your health & safety during the pandemic; it's entirely another to know they're gleeful as they harm and strip your rights away and then mock your tears.

As a born & raised Albertan & proud Canadian I am ping-ponging between raging at my prov govt & feeling sick knowing our fundamental rights & freedoms are being tossed aside for a political win. Canadians outside of Alberta: This will happen to you too. It's coming. This is the conservative playbook
