    > McGill University in Quebec has denied gender-affirming care to at least two trans American students since March, when the school adopted a preemptive policy denying hormone replacement therapy over fears the Trump administration would retaliate, two sources say.

  3. TIO'TIA:KE/MONTREAL STREET OUTREACH CREW NEEDS SOME MORE HUMANS SEE BELOW:

    Hey yall, Les Nocturnes is looking for people to come out with us. Unfortunately due to low capacity, we have been having a hard time getting a team of 3 people together lately (which is our minimum.) We have not missed a day in the past 5 years and would really like to keep up the consistent support we offer to the community.

    Les Nocturnes is a street-solidarity group committed to collective liberation, community-care, and fostering connection with people facing systemic oppression. We focus on mutual aid and aim to create a place where people can feel safe, feel heard and are treated with kindness and dignity. We chat, we listen, we share stories & we offer harm reduction materials in addition to an assortment of donated items such as meals, drinks, and socks.

    No experience required & there are no stringent attendance expectations (this is not your job.) We go out from 7pm til around 11/midnight (you can leave early if you need to though) on Wednesday nights between Guy & Atwater metro stations in Montreal.

    Email the team if you’re interested or if you have any questions: [email protected]

  4. i had forgotten about this until i found it while unpacking today. i got it at the anarchist bookfair two years ago

    it's kinda saddening to read. a lot of it is based around reminders that the average person is probably transphobic. there is a lot of advice to make it clear you aren't an aggressor, to try not to use your voice in case others haven't realized you're trans, etc

    if you're interested in reading (or printing!) it, it's available here:

    ⚠️⚠️ MISSING DOG IN MONTREAL ⚠️⚠️

    PLEASE BOOST, SCREENSHOT AND SHARE ON CONVENTIONAL SOCIALS

    small (~40lbs) brown bully mutt. she's old, ~17 years, and mostly deaf. her name is mia

    i moved last night and didn't have time to come back for my dog, so came back today to get her; but she's gone

    this was in cotes des neiges, on bedford, between cotes des neiges and darlington. I left around midnight and only made it back at 5 pm, she's gone but her leash is here, so I can only assume she ran away

    if she did, she had to have jumped off the balcony, so she would i assume be limping??

    IF FOUND, CONTACT ME ON SIGNAL @/ayo.1312 OR I CAN GIVR YOU MY NUMBER

    (no alt text I'm sorry)

  7. any chance admins have been paying attention to the ip ranges these bots are coming from?

    any chance yall feel like blocking them?

  8. man, my jiva experience has been nightmare. it requires manual intervention like every day on my cluster, and the community is just a sea of ignored issues and slack messages. i don't know why the talos team recommends it.

    am i the only one who feels this way?
