Incredibly excited for the fall when our graphic history of LSD research in socialist Saskatchewan, based on the research of @erikadyckhist, comes out. btlbooks.com/book/wonder-dru…

There's no fucking reason to give West Mabou beach to a golf course. I only spent summers in Mabou and it would be a devastating loss to me; I can only begin to imagine what a misery this would be for the people who have lived there for generations.
The issue of West Mabou Beach Provincial Park is important to Nova Scotians because handing it over to create a golf course would set a precedent for all protected land in the province. If they can do it here, they will do it anywhere. Comments on this: youtube.com/live/RP1xHzBWIfM…

I’m walking out today with my @latguild colleagues in the first work stoppage in the 143-year history of the L.A. Times. We’re trying to save our city’s most valuable public trust. This is for a community that has been relying on us for generations. This is for all of L.A.

#Opinion: Welfare rates now $200 a month below the Harris cuts of 1995. A housing list from the Scarborough Legal Clinic shows that for a single person, the lowest rent for shared accommodation in Scarborough is $650 a month, if you can get it. trib.al/KYrsE3X

On this day 87 years ago, the Spanish civil war began. In much of Spain, the coup was stopped by the working class, who launched one of the most far reaching social revolutions in world history. 🏴🚩 🧵(1/12)

The workshop that generated this poster series happened just before COVID and that was a bit cruel because it was one of the most joyful, rewarding experiences of my life followed by two plague years. Eternally grateful to have been part of this!
For reconciliation week we are sharing some of our work with Indigenous scholars This one by @Rin_Sullivan @DrJKWei @bethpiatote Carolyn Smith & @SibylDiver is a great use of art to give an insight into what it is like being Indigenous in the academy bit.ly/3oIUhnO

Hey @cbcrob , it might be worth interviewing an actual anarchist about what we believe before breathlessly repeating lies from the police about how we "aren’t necessarily tied to each other but subscribe to an ideology aimed at causing chaos"

“The Earth was made to be a Common Treasury of relief for all, both Beasts and Men...” #OnThisDay 1649: Gerrard Winstanley and a small group of 30-40 men and women (‘Diggers’) started digging and sowing vegetables on the wasteland of St George’s Hill, Surrey.

Hey @CanRevAgency, I have a Notice of Assessment from 2020 saying that I made ~$14,000 net, and then a letter saying I have to pay my CRB back because I didn't make at least $5,000 net in 2019, 2020 or the 12 months before I filed my claim. What gives?

Picket lines will go up tomorrow morning at the Sterling entrance and both entrances to Cootes. If you haven’t signed up for picket duties yet, no problem, just sign in with a picket captain 🦺 when you arrive and they’ll sort you out. #MacStrike #BetterMac – at Hamilton, Ontario
