Tomyris 🇨🇦 @tomiride.bsky.social · 09/04/2025Unfortunately I haven’t seen many people talk about this but it deserves a lot of attention right now.

Tomyris 🇨🇦 @tomiride.bsky.social · 05/04/2025Wow this had a much needed clarification for me on Jessica Wetz’s saga with the NDP. Jagmeet who immediately picked on Carney’s chief of staff to pick up Arab votes, did this to a woman who simply talked about dehumanization of children of Gaza. Shame on NDP for how they treated her. 000

Reposted by Tomyris 🇨🇦Paris Marx @parismarx.com · 02/04/2025You can hear the full call in the video Rachel released today. If CTV thought the disingenuous right-wing troll campaign was bad, they should experience way worse for throwing Rachel under the bus like this. 112116
Reposted by Tomyris 🇨🇦Paris Marx @parismarx.com · 01/04/2025It’s stunning how the Executive Producer acknowledges she knows the hate Rachel has to deal with, but says CTV — a large news organization — doesn’t have the “bandwidth” to deal with it, so cuts ties with Rachel and continues to leave her to deal with it on her own. Shameful isn’t even the word. 1230564
Reposted by Tomyris 🇨🇦Paris Marx @parismarx.com · 01/04/2025Absolutely shameful that CTV caved to a disingenuous right-wing pressure campaign instead of standing their ground. It presents even more red flags about the state of the media in Canada. @rachelgilmore.bsky.social did not deserve to be treated this way. 501360412

Tomyris 🇨🇦 @tomiride.bsky.social · 29/03/2025yep 100%. Pretty sure it is on purpose to make you turn off your privacy features. I switched to DDG last year.

Tomyris 🇨🇦 @tomiride.bsky.social · 29/03/2025Wow there’s just so many. I really like “Ecstasy of gold” by Ennio Morricone. Gives a really badass feeling, like if you’re about to do something high stakes, just listen to that, get pumped up, then get in there and rock it + The Amélie score by Yann Tiersen, very different vibe but still awesome 😅 141
