Kinda disheartening tbh when you search for people talking about something on tumblr and you find only a single post with like 10 notes. Anyway, I learned about this from Facebook just today and decided I'm going to abuse my follower count to spread the word.
You'll have a hard time finding this in the news because it's being covered up, but from February 4-present the RCMP have been conducting raids on multiple Mi'kmaw reserves part of Acadia First Nation. Their excuse is that they are searching for illegal cannabis.
During the raids, so far they:
Stole a number of truck houses
Stole money from an 8-yo boy's piggy-bank that he had been saving for two years
Invaded homes and destroyed personal property, including basketwork and carvings
Broke the door down of a bathroom occupied by a 14-yo boy as he was using it - the boy has been traumatized by this
Assaulted a man for questioning why they were searching his property without providing a warrant, pinning him into the snow
Cut power of security cameras to hide these actions
I cannot stress enough that the RCMP coming down this hard on our people over motherfucking cannabis is nothing but a racist excuse. There are countless, countless, countless white-owned massive grow-ops making big money without cops lifting a single finger.
There is an informal petition you can sign here. EDIT: I've informed the petition owner that there is a field error - hopefully it'll be fixed soon
If you live in or near Halifax: There will be a public protest on the Angus MacDonald Bridge at noon on March 10, 2025.
lalalala

For all my fellow Aussies remember, voting yes in the referendum quite literally means that Indigenous Australians will get a proper spot in parliament. If someone tells you to vote no they are racist, there is no reason why Indigenous Australians shouldn’t be allowed in parliament.
Vote Yes!
We have enough to share
Pigeons are actually pretty, imo. Yeah even the grey ones you see around the bus stop. The "sky rats". They are just common (in many places at least i guess) so we don't really care, but... A big variety of spotted patern? Some of them legit remind me of seashells? Some of them are dark grey, light grey, white, and sometimes even brown ? They have green and violet shiny necks? (my favorite are the white and brown ones with mainly violet necks and a bit of green) Red legs? Kind of cute actually? You do you but i think pigeons are cool actually!
it's so important for your health and well-being to get overly attached to a fictional man who is both deeply amoral and unbelievably, pathetically sad
