I asked Premier Ford how he felt about the Greenbelt demonstration in front of #FordFest, he said he doesn’t worry about people being “bussed in.” Then a protester who got into the festival took over for a tense one-on-one. @CityNewsTO

@strategywoman It's not cool, my husband had a setting that showed him news about Ukraine that would be at the top of his feed, that's gone now.

3:44 pm in #Kyiv I don't know what's happening with Twitter (or X, or whatever) these days. My tweets are shown to significantly fewer people, and I lost followers constantly and rapidly. Ok. Three reasons: Algorithms are doing some 'magic' or people are really tired of Ukraine. Or people are leaving this platform. So I'm thinking about an experiment: Posting the same content (maybe slightly changed) on Threads too. I have 100 times fewer people there. Once a week, I'm going to share the results I got on two platforms: - how my precious audience is growing/disappearing - engagement. Why do I care? I want Ukraine to be seen by as many people as I can reach.

@strategywoman You bring back humanity to something that seems so unreal. You keep it present and real. I also love reading your posts in general.

4:41 pm in #Kyiv If you have a moment, could you please write why you follow me here? Thank you! Hugs? Of course.

@strategywoman Just brought some sandals into a cobbler to get fixed. Big thunderstorms here!

11:04 pm in #Kyiv Let’s talk about something normal. What are you doing now?

If you're wanting to understand the human impact of the war in Ukraine, please check her out! @strategywoman shares how she is living her life in spite of Putin's attempts to squash their humanity! Love following her story. ❤️🇺🇦 twitter.com/strategywoman?…

@strategywoman From 🇨🇦 thinking of you guys!

9:56 am in #Kyiv Morning from Ukraine! The night was calm. And now lazy Saturday morning here. I had #warcoffee, the sun is shining. I cannot stop this stupid war, but I can live my life fully. War: Pardon. Me: What? W: Insults in the morning? M: Are you angry with me? W: Haha.

@strategywoman I can't imagine. I talk to my kids about your experience and to not take our peace for granted. Also to remember to keep Ukraine in the conversation so that people don't become complacent!

2:22 am in #Kyiv Debris caused damages. There are wounded people. Our Mayor informed. Air raid alert is still on. More drones are on their way. The loud night with drones. Okok. I want to sleep. Desperately.

@strategywoman We've been visiting the ocean. Hoping peace comes for you!

9:42 am in Ukrainian village Memories fell on me heavily. Like a coat made of steel. - where have you been? where have you been? they whispered to me. Childhood years, the scent of fresh grass, peonies bushes my Grandma loved so much, yesterdays’ newspaper of my Grandpa, two pairs of glasses on the table… - where have you been? where have you been? the memories looked at me with enormous tenderness. But they were so heavy that I could hardly breathe. - Can someone help me to take off that heavy coat? Time, are you here? #thestory

Well, that stacked up nicely. Wordle 719 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ 🟨⬜🟩⬜⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I'm so glad that @fordnation decided to cut the funding for fighting forest fires. Ontario is on fire! lioapplications.lrc.gov.on.ca/ForestFireInfo…

So this is the temp in #onted schools today. By 9am. In small classrooms with large #’s of students. Maybe @Sflecce wants to visit these schools? Yet @fordnation underfunds and overcrowds. #publicschools. #EnoughIsEnoughON #stopthecuts @ElemTeachersTO @ETFOeducators #onpoli

Happy Pride Month! #LoveIsLove

@hockeyinottawa He still thinks his only obligation is Toronto and his buddies.

@strategywoman Scary stuff. I saw a video of children running to shelter. ❤️

2:59 am in #Kyiv I woke up from explosions. Very loud now.

In case you're wondering how things are going in Texas, our district canceled all sex ed classes this year but is now required to offer kids training in bleeding control techniques, including "tourniquets approved for use in battlefield trauma care by the armed forces."

@hockeyinottawa 🔥🔥🔥

@unlearn16tweet @Timcast What about any of the music performers?? I don't see these kids getting banned from their tiktok accounts or having cellphones banned either.

@Timcast Serious questions - No kids at Hooters? No kids at football halftime shows? No kids at pageants? No kids at movies with anything sexual - kissing?

All I'm saying is no sexualized performances if children are present

@LiVE885fm This wouldn't leave much weather to keep it running in 😂

Should our LRT shut down in the winter when extreme weather is forecasted?
