Little One has friends with two mums, two dads, a single mum, an adopted family, divorced parents and knows both non binary people and a friendly adult who has transitioned their gender while we knew them.

We've been to drag queen story times, which Little One enjoys, because dressing up and telling stories and singing is Fun.

None of that has been confusing or an issue at all.

You know what this child finds confusing and upsetting?
That there are people with no home, sleeping in the streets. With nothing to eat.
That makes no sense to them. And rightly so, because it has no justification.

The #VT Futures Project Economic Action Plan is good reading.

I don't necessarily agree with everything in it. I have my misgivings about the fact that the contributors to it are exclusively from the business sector, without any formal input from the #SocialJustice community.

It does correctly identify key challenges #Vermont faces for its future: the need for #population #growth and the need for #redevelopment of our built #environment.

“This is the tip of the iceberg” for tech powering ICE. For years activists have warned about automatic licence plate readers. Not to mention the sources of data that can be scooped up online, surveillance cameras. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DSFDgvIDAIg/?igsh=MTd6aHllYXNiNW51aQ==

It should be impossible for the ITU to deny that internet shutdowns in Iran demonstrate fundamental flaws with digital sovereignty rhetoric for human rights in both policy and global internet governance https://www.techpolicy.press/irans-case-should-put-an-end-to-illusions-about-digital-sovereignty/

ICE is a slave patrol powered by tech. Violence is all that is on the 24 hour news cycle and yet just weeks ago WIRED ran a feature that humanised Palantir’s Alex Karp.

So after a couple of days of snooping around and butting into conversations, I guess it's #introduction time 😁

I'm originally from Singapore, but moved to Naarm (Melbourne, Australia) in 2004.

I have been in the hospitality industry for 18 years.
The last 12 of which have been spent in the kitchen as a chef. I post about #food a lot 😏

I also have a background in #Anthropology, #SocialTheory and #HumanNutrition.

Am currently in the middle of a #PhD in #Education - researching community #foodpedagogies as well as food education in #PublicHealth.

I am passionate about #SocialJustice, #FoodSecurity, #Decolonisation and dismantling systems that perpetuate division and inequity.

I am a #dancer, #SciFi geek, a novice gardener and have a regular #yoga practice.

Open to meet anyone and everyone. Excited to be here and looking forward to many amazing conversations and friendships! 💜

🇨🇦 👋 40 Ways to Fight the Far-Right: In Canada

This guide offers ideas for people of all backgrounds, identities, and skill levels. While we encourage people to show up in person, there are also many options for people who aren’t able to do that.

Together, these actions present a variety of tactics which raise the cost of participation in far-right movements and, we believe, will keep communities safer.
