It’s so weird to me when people are like ‘but that will cost the government money!’ So what? They’re the government, they’re supposed to be spending money. What, you want them to take your tax dollars and then do nothing with it? Lock it all up in a big government vault and just look at it? Why are you so scared of giving a third grader lunch or a homeless person a house.
if you have OCD that moralistic post it not about you. keep scrolling. i love you

Please don’t vote for Poilievre. He’s basically the Canadian Trump and plans to put in place laws that harm trans youth, and lots of other shit.
Please vote istg this is the only way anything will get better. Poilievre has been kissing millionaires and billionaires asses. He’ll make life even harder, and he loves Trump.
Reblogs are appreciated, especially if you aren’t Canadian.

I love talking with neurotypical people about my executive dysfunction because I’m like “yeah there’s this invisible wall in my head that I’m incapable of getting past no matter what I do and it stops me from doing things” and they’re like what the actual fuck
