🧵Hi, I'm Patrick. When I was a kid, I leaned Reform, I voted for conservatives - There were many reasons, the primary being they talked financial responsibility, and making sure we leave a better world for our children.

My husband is good with sharing most of the load but honestly there’s so much invisible work that goes into motherhood and it’s often not noticed and definitely not recognized and is often taken granted.

Everyone occasionally needs a day where they are needed by absolutely no one. That’s self care.

The freedom to eat without shame or punishment is precious for those of us battling an ED. And we deserve that freedom whether we are thin, fat, or any size at all. I’m sending love to anyone whose freedom has been denied, past or present. You deserve to find delight in food.

No matter what anyone tries to sell you, healthcare is not a business and can never be run like one without violating human rights.

Weaponized incompetence is absolutely a thing. I was in way too many relationships before I figured out what it really meant when I heard, "But but you're much better at it than me" over and over.

Deleted my RANT in response to being told I should leave Saskatchewan for being progressive. It triggers me to be told to leave because the truth is, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. There is no other home for me but it is so hard to make a life here if you aren't CON.

OMG PEOPLE stop using "pussy" as an insult of weakness. Vaginas were literally designed for intense contact sports. Your weak-AF body part is a goddamn scrotum.

The myth that people living in poverty are lazy/unmotivated and only want to live off the government is implicitly baked into public policy discussions and agendas. Nothing could be further from the truth. Poverty is like quicksand — easy to fall into, difficult to get out.

While Canadians are off complaining about wearing a piece of cloth on their face being a violation of freedom, Ukrainian parents are sewing their child’s blood type to their clothing in hopes they can be saved from the bombs falling from the sky. Freedom.

I have a degree in immunology from Cambridge, a medical degree from Oxford, and a master's in public health from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine… but "John52659143" on here just told me I know nothing about all three, so there's that.

Ok I am kind of tired of men telling me about the public debt of childcare. I paid that debt with my time. My mother paid that debt with her time. Her mother with her time. For generations women have been servicing this nation with FREE FUCKING LABOUR.
Ya but … tough darts for the taxpayer and those lil darlings hen they find out that public debt Carrie’s forward

Shoutout to the pregnant ones whose anxiety keeps them from fully being able to let go & enjoy the journey. To the ones who can’t just “trust your gut” bc anxiety won’t let you. Remind yourself you’re not lacking motherly instinct, you’re just anxious and doing the best you can.
