Dissatisfaction with Justin Trudeau

As a concerned citizen, I feel compelled to express my deep dissatisfaction with the current Prime Minister of Canada. Despite being a nation known for its inclusivity, diversity, and progressive values, I believe that our esteemed leader has fallen short of delivering on the promises made during the election campaigns. In this post, I will outline some of the key areas where the Prime Minister's performance has left much to be desired.

Lack of Transparency: One of the fundamental pillars of democracy is transparency, and regrettably, it is a quality that seems to be lacking in our current Prime Minister's approach. Key decisions are often made behind closed doors, leaving citizens in the dark about the rationale and motives behind them. The lack of openness erodes trust and weakens the very foundations of our democratic system.

Inadequate Economic Management: Despite promising a prosperous future for all Canadians, the Prime Minister's economic policies have failed to deliver tangible results. High taxes, excessive regulations, and burdensome bureaucracy continue to hinder the growth of small businesses and stifle innovation. The middle class, in particular, is feeling the squeeze, struggling to make ends meet while the cost of living steadily rises.

Ineffective Climate Change Strategy: Canada's commitment to combating climate change should be a top priority for any responsible leader. Unfortunately, the current Prime Minister's actions have not aligned with this urgent need. Rather than implementing bold and effective policies, the government has relied on symbolic gestures and empty promises. Our nation's greenhouse gas emissions remain high, and we continue to fall short of meeting international climate targets.

Neglected Infrastructure and Healthcare: Despite the pressing need for investment in infrastructure and healthcare, the current Prime Minister's administration has failed to prioritize these critical sectors adequately. Crumbling roads, outdated public transportation systems, and overburdened healthcare facilities are a daily reality for Canadians across the country. The lack of substantial action in these areas showcases a lack of vision and commitment to the well-being of the people.

Disregard for National Unity: Canada's strength lies in its diversity, and it is the Prime Minister's responsibility to foster national unity and inclusivity. However, divisive policies and rhetoric have only served to widen the rifts between different regions and communities. The neglect of certain provinces' concerns and the undermining of democratic institutions have created a sense of alienation among many citizens.

Conclusion: It is disheartening to witness the decline in Canada's leadership under the current Prime Minister. From a lack of transparency to economic mismanagement, ineffective climate change strategies, neglect of crucial sectors, and the erosion of national unity, the list of grievances is extensive. As citizens, we must demand better from our elected officials and hold them accountable for their actions. Canada deserves a Prime Minister who embodies true leadership, transparency, and a commitment to the well-being of all its people.

got a quick question for the room tell me which pedro character you would be married to. like realistically. imagine the perfect world where the two of yall could be and he is totally down if you are to give the forever deal a shot. which pedro character makes you think like yeah i could be married to this guy and actually be very happy and fulfilled

also it has to be canon version of themselves too but we (my friend and i who were discussing this) will accept a second answer if you want to include their fanon personalities.

shiv is not the kind of person who can tolerate being unsatisfied, ie the exact thing she laid out on her wedding night to tom: "i'm not a good fit for a monogamous marriage" (at least not when it's to him), but she also feels bad about this because she wants to be in an honest relationship, and pretty much can't because no one who would be okay with what she wants would also be someone she can find any stability with. she was definitely trying very hard, in the months between proposal and wedding, to find the middle ground where she starts dropping hints and making it clearer where she stands without outright saying so, like just enough to feel less like she's outright decieving tom, and also to not drive tom away. i feel like her ideal, and what she would have done if tom didn't outright confront her about fucking around, was a "don't ask don't tell" marriage. much like the one that logan and caroline definitely had. a very english aristocrat sort of... stable adultery. she wanted both her and tom to default to their mutual partnership but be free to go and get whatever else they needed when it was plausibly deniable. to simply keep anything extramarital out of the house and to expertly maintain the veneer.

i also think that, due to her struggle with satisfaction, part of the appeal of tom as a partner was in fact that there would be something missing for him, too. like not nearly enough missing as there was for her, bc she absolutely would not stand for someone straying that far, but... essentially this was my deep dive into why shiv (subconsciously) wanted a gay husband. and ironically/tragically for her, it was just inevitable that in order for a gay man to be both as repressed as he needs to be to wanna be with her and stable enough to be a good partner, he will VERY much tolerate being unsatisfied, and he will make her feel just as bad when he's a pathological monogamist and incapable of straightforwardly pursuing what (who) he wants.

In everything that I've read about the fallen Doctor Who ratings, not once have I seen someone say that this is the first time that if you don't live in the UK you need to subscribe to a platform to watch.

100% that has to have had an impact on the number of people who watch.

NEW: PKR Losing Appeal as PAS Gains With Dissatisfaction Against Madani Growing

KUALA LUMPUR, May 13, 2025 — PKR deputy president Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli warned that PKR is becoming a “party for the elderly,” retaining relevance only among Gen X and Boomers. With Gen Z and Millennials, who form over half of registered voters, favoring PAS for its perceived integrity, PKR’s appeal is waning. Rafizi noted that public dissatisfaction with the government’s anti-corruption…

Due to recent posts, I feel compelled to share some ways I know avian nonhumans around me (and me, obviously) have customized their way of living (whether it is body modification, clothing styles, wording, social changes, etc) to feel more appropriately avian. I personally have complicated feelings on calling myself specifically transpecies due to my disatisfaction with current ways of appearing nonhuman societally, but these are, for all intents and purpose, currently available things to transition to Bird, i suppose.

Physical (as in, non-clothing related, direct body modification or training)

Tattoos. This is even more common with my reptilian peers, but i've seen a few birds use tattoos to feel like themselves. I've seen one particular individual with beautifully tattooed talon-scales, but wing tattoos or feathered patterns are also common.

Shaving. I've done that for a time, but stopped since my own body hair is not the most visible. I've met a few birds who'd rather have a nude body than hair, due to the mammalian connotations.

Bird call training / voice training. Met a decent amount of birds who trained themselves to be able to do calls. A syrinx gives a tone that's alas hard to copy with a larynx, but being able to reproduce bird calls through wistling or other methods is common! Still personally perfecting my ability to beak-clack ahah, that one has been tricky.

Nails. This one could go here or in the clothing related section, depending on if you file your natural nails into talons, or simply apply fake talons on your natural nails, but it's also something i'm considering. I prefer filed nails for work, but I'd enjoy having one hand with full talons. Might be a goal to find a way to do it this summer actually for me.

Dyed hair and body hair. More common w/ just the hair, but particularly amongst bright colored bird and dymorphic birds i've found a real liking for hair dye. I'm a more dull species, but I enjoy dyeing my hair bright pink during nesting season, it makes me feel more bright-esque and "adult", as the dull nakedness of human skin feels very hatchling-like for me. But i've also seen people reproduce their plumage through hair dye!

Physical exercise and muscle training. I've seen a lot of variants! One i've seen is the training of pectoral muscles as an analog to wing muscles / the feeling them on a keel. Generally met birds who enjoyed staying in good physical shape and who considered that bird-like.

SRS / Top-surgery. This one REALLY varies with gender identity, but i've met a decent amount of birds who prefer a flat chest without breasts (mammalian trait) and who prefer no external genitalia (cloaca-analogue). It's my case, and I would in fact consider top surgery if it becomes available to me. Currently, it's difficult. I would tentatively put hormone therapy here potentially, but I've actually seen less birds talk about hrt compared to mammals, as it tends to intensify mammalian traits. But it's very possible some birds are on hrt due to species euphoria.

Clothing-related

Cloaks and other wing-like items. Self explanatory ! Lots of birds enjoy the weight-feel of something that feels like wings. I personally own a wing shawl by shovava, but i've seen hoodies, i've seen feathered shawls, etc. I find this item a bit hard to wear in my everyday life personally, and it doesn't fall quite right for me to feel it as wings, but perhaps some day i'll find something that feels more right for me in this category.

Color-coded outfits. Whether it is purely to match plumage, or a gender-marker, it's very common for birds in my experience to use clothing as a replacement for feathers. It is my case. I feel plucked without clothing, and tend to prefer to be clothed. it feels natural, and I use strong contrasts, bright accents, and a general black color scheme as a Bright gender marker. I deviate from a roadrunner's natural plumage, but it feels more affirming for me. One fun thing i'd like to acquire is scale pattern leggings and gloves, so i can have proper scaled talons under my shirt / pants.

Accessories. This varies greatly depending on species. I've met birds of prey who wear falconry items, i've met birds who wear bird tags bracelets, a lot of birds wear feather pattern accessories or generally bird themed stuff to reinforce their association with birds overall... Kind of a really wide category that will wildly depend on what you are and what you like to wear, but very versatile. I'd like a bird tag, maybe! It'd be fun. but i feel like i need it to mean something, so it'd probably be an item i'd wear only if i have something to tie it to. for now, i'm an untagged bird, ahah.

Contacts. This one is twofold. Birds often rely on eyesight a lot. I'm very nearsighted. Wearing contacts, and getting back to a normal human vision feels,,, a bit less ironic than a bird wearing glasses, so i tend to prefer it. It doesn't point out my nearsighted-ness as much. However, there's also a lot of nonhuman looking colored contacts out there! They are GREAT for actually getting an external "that person is nonhuman" response from people, as it is a very recognizeable marker of Something not being quite right. I don't have access to custom contacts, so i simply use white iris contacts for that nonhuman look, but they've been very affirming for me.

Fursuits, masks and gear. This one has a tendency to get in the way, but very obviously, realistic masks, talon gloves, feathered tails, and all that is a great way to look nonhuman. I currently have two masks in my collection, one by ligris cybernetic, and one by dragonartist15, both 3D printed. I recommend the second for any bird mask needs. They're hard to wear very often, as they are often a bit bulky, and I personally find it kinda feels uncanny to not actually "feel" the limbs through the prosthetic, but it's still a very good option, if a bit pricy.

Sensory deprivation gear. This one is more about the mental than the external appearance, but I know a few falconry oriented birds who enjoy having sensory deprivation items on their person while traveling or simply resting, as it mimics for them the hoods or cages of a bird who's not working. Noise cancelling headphone is one i've seen a lot.

Jewelry. Mostly either corvid related or bright related ahah! I've seen a few birds who really relate to the thieving magpie archetype and like wearing a lot of shiny things as a corvid-thing. I've probably seen other birds do it, but i associate it the most w/ them.

Skill related

Bird Jobs. Birds do not escape the rule of a lot of therianthropes and other nonhumans feeling somewhat "domesticated" due to their condition as bird in human society. A few birds I know actively pursue jobs that feel bird-like. After all, theriform birds can very much have jobs, be it falconry birds, messenger pigeons, guard geese, or cormorant fishing. I've met at least one bird of prey pursuing aviation to fly a jet, a lot birds who decided to work with birds in their jobs as a sort of "ambassador animal" (whether it was research, veterinary sciences, etc), corvids who embraced the spiritual connotation of their kind in popular culture, I personally pursue entomology partially because, well, i've got a predatory instinct toward insects and just enjoy catching and id-ing them due to this. In general, a lot of animal people take jobs that connect them with nature, as a way to escape more human-heavy tasks.

Hunting and foraging. I know a lot of therianthropes who feel more like themselves if they have the ability to get their food directly from the source. Herons learning to fish, passerines learning which fruits they can still eat in this body and which they now can't, birds of prey learning how to prepare a rabbit... Knowing some survival skills can be something that feels very personally rewarding.

Flight. Not accessible to everybody, but a lot of flying birds deeply want to fly again, and learning to fly with a body without wings can be a way to really... gain back power in it. Hang gliding, parachuting, etc.

Courting related skills. A lot of birds do have that as a pretty important part of their bird identity ! Whether it's knowing how to bring back food, how to protect a nest or build one, how to sing, how to dance, how to look good, or any other of the myriad of ways birds have to court, getting better at it Feels Right. I personally learn how to cook as one of the main part of this, as an analogue to bringing back prey items, alongside with gift giving. It makes me feel like a more proper roadrunner to be able to compete on that skill.

External social related

Having people you trust acknowledge you as a bird. It's very unlikely at this point in time to be able to just... pass as a bird. But having close friends who acknowledge your species is a world of difference.

Word-change. Calling hands talons, teeth/mouth a beak, hair feathers, etc, can feel a bit ridiculous, but with enough confidence it just kinda... works after a while? I call my hair my plumage. I call my dyed hair my summer plumage, and my short, brown hair my winter plumage, even with people who do not know me as a bird. No one really calls me out on it. People tend to build on the joke and actually start calling me with more bird related words. it's quite fun.

"Being the bird person". Although being seen as a bird is a bit hard, it's actually pretty easy to become "bird-coded" in the eyes of people. It's a good first step. I personally did it just by being very out about my roadrunner obsession and my bird-words and all that, and playing with outfits and Looking the parts tends to feed it.

Gender. This one is kinda external and internal. I don't tend to really... tell people i'm a bright. But i act like a bright. Bright is the gender of birds who court in a pair, such as roosters, peacocks, male blackbirds, female jacanas, etc. It's often associated with bright colors, loudness and competitiveness. Dun or hen is the gender of the bird who is courted in a pair, such as peahen, female bowerbirds, or male phalaropes. It's often associated with nest building, cryptic coloration, being the one who chooses, protectiveness, etc. It varies from species to species, bird to bird, and some species have no bright or dun at all. It's a xenogender borrowed from a fictional alien species from runaway to the stars by jay eaton. Xenogenders can go hand in hand with species markers. Playing with them, playing with pronouns, and with gender presentation, can be a very species euphoric thing.

"Owners". This one kind of a complex topic. Some nonhumans in relationships with humans, whether romantic, queerplatonic, or else, like acknowledging their human as a sort of pet owner, zookeeper, falconer, or other term. Whether this stop at word play, or is an actual dynamic similar to nonsexual (or not) petplay varies. I do not recommend entering a kink dynamic, even nonsexual, before 18 yo due to the power dynamic that usually come w/ deferring to another person as a keeper, even if it is species euphoric for you, however, once you're good to go, why not. Being a falcon, with a falconkeeper, who treats you as a falcon is probably one of the Most Direct way you can socially be a bird. Having a nonhuman partner has a similar effect, but uh, can be hard to come across. I've however heard of at least one bird4bird couple who seem to be doing absolutely great. In general, having a partner that lets you unmask entirely can be an extremely soothing experience.

Building a life around instincts, instead of restricting instincts for human life. This is also complex. By default, human society is not accomodating to nonhuman instincts. Making nonhuman instincts a priority over deffering to human rules is hard. However, it is possible. I know at least one migratory bird who actively migrates, changing continents from summer to winter, and who is building a life around this cycle. My own seasonal cycle impacts my romantic identity : instead of having a consistant need for a partner, I wish for a romantic-sexual partner in summer, and a queerplatonic-friend like relationship in winter. This is non-amanormative, and is something i can't quite change, and I will not settle for a partner who wants me to pick a side. Wanting a territory as a life goal is not worth less than wanting a house. Wanting to be a good bird of prey for your falconer is not less rewarding than wanting to be a doctor. You can have a flock. You can learn to dive to fish for your own food. You can change the rules.

There's probably much, much more to be said on this topic. There's a million of ways people take active steps to live their life truthfully, as many as there is birds out there. I'd love to hear what you guys do.

Oh boy!!!... just gonna leave the blurb here cause no words could ever be enough: "Buck accepts a challenge to be edged in his and Eddie's own version of the 12 Days of Christmas and loses his mind a little more with each one." (Btw if someone knows the author please lmk. They put a link to their tumblr on ao3 but it doesnt work for me.)

[kit-kat-reader]

okay, so valgrace. It is, according to ao3’s most general and all-encompassing tag, the third most popular non-canon ship (regarding jiper as canon), Leo’s second most popular ship and Jason’s third most popular ship, and the tenth most popular ship. Also, it should’ve been canon.

I know, I know, unless you already ship it - why? Primarily two reasons.

Better representation

Nico was fantastic representation, but he certainly shouldn’t have been the first openly gay character. It caused the fandom to infantilise him and was, in the end, overall harmful to his character.

But what if he wasn’t the first? Tell me Leo doesn’t scream stereotypical bi disaster. As someone who is bi, I would’ve loved to see rep from Leo. Also, Jason could’ve been a better look into the whole compulsive heterosexuality to gay, because most of piper’s development on that front is off-screen.

More variety in romance

There are 4 relationships properly featured in the second arc. One is established already, one is established in one book, start to finish. Jason’s is not really a slow-burn and is doomed, leading to a sensation of disappointment/disatisfaction that didn’t really need to happen. Leo’s is mildly toxic and also quite short. Valgrace could’ve filled in as a slow-burn throughout the whole series instead of just a few books.

[erinaeris]

I think what people miss about Laios/Izutsumi interactions and why she doesn't like him at first and thinks he's creepy, isn't because he's a grown man petting a teenage girl, but because he's so fascinated with the Wrong Parts of her.

Izutsumi hates her cat half. It was what made her a circus freak, what made her mother abandon her, what made Maizuru put a literal leash on her (from her perspective). She said it outright in the sauna scene: nobody would want to look at a beast. Her feline parts are freaky, gross and she wants them cut off because nobody wants to look at her the way she is. It's teenage body disatisfaction turned up to 11 + actual CPTSD.

But Laios does! Everybody knows that Laios would, given half a chance, absolutely love to look Izutsumi all over! The party knows it's not in the way a normal man would look at a pretty girl, though they still don't like the optics, but Izutsumi would probably be miles more okay with that. Because then Laios would like the half of her she thinks has actual value, and she's a teenage girl coming from a Certain Kind Of Society and that would be affirming to her more positive self-image, whether or not she felt any interest in him.

But Laios doesn't even register her as An Adult Member Of The Opppsite Sex, partly because he's autistic, partly because she's young enough that he sees her as a kid and partly because she really does act more like a cat than a human and THAT is the real stinger. Because here's a healthy young man who actually wants to look at her strutting around in armor bikini and he's interested in the wrong part of her. He's not interested in what makes her a girl, he's interested in what makes her a cat, and THAT'S what rubs Izutsumi the wrong way. At least the other party members look at her like a girl with some extra appendages, but Laios sees her as a cat with some human appendages (which we learn she actually is, thanks to Lycion) and that just feeds her self-hate.

Like, eventually she learns that Laios is just a freak, and when he's in Team Leader mode he treats her like a proper party member and she warms up to him. But the damage he accidentally did, confirming that only the parts of her she considers undesireable are what makes him want to look, are definitely contributing to her teenage angst.

[unintentionalseductress]

13 with Sylus please? 🥺

"Can you be good for me?"

Slight twist --------

He's bound, naked and vulnerable on his bed, eyes glittering in maddening desire as you approach him.

"Can you be good for me?" You run a tickling finger down his abdomen, seeing the muscles quiver as you trace his happy trail down and over the patch of neatly trimmed pubic hair and circling his tip that's leaking beads of precum.

He had severely underestimated you. He wants to growl and yank you under him but you had apprehended him in ways he hadn't thought possible. He's been teased, tortured, already been denied an orgasm once, the wave of disatisfaction still sitting in his heavy balls.

You firmly grasp his chin, forcing him to look at you. "Answer me. If you're good I'll let you cum."

He glares at you, then with a resigned tone answers, "Yes."

"Yes what?" You cup his balls, not too delicately, causing him to hiss as a jolt of pleasure radiates through him, making its way to his stomach and down to his thighs and painfully erect cock.

A gasp before he replies this time. "Yes Mistress."

Pleased with his submission, you smirk as you kneel between his thighs, pumping his cock experimentally. The tip was so delicate and swollen, weeping milky orbs that you sample with the tip of your tongue. Sylus grits his teeth as he feels the tantalizing wet swipe across his tip, then stifles a groan in his throat as you start taking him into your mouth, the suction and motion of your head turning on something very primal inside him.

He grunts and arches his hips, only for you to pull back and pump his wet length in your hand. "Try that again and I'll leave you like this until you learn your lesson."

Sylus's eyes are crimson slits now, desperation etched all over his chiseled features. You decide he hasn't earned the right to be in your mouth and start jerking him off with your hand. He curses and moans, but it's obvious he's close to the edge. You wonder how he might react if you deny him a third time but decide it's too cruel and continue to pump him steadily.

The coil in his belly snaps, releasing heat and pleasure through him as he orgasms satisfactorily in your palm, his cock pulsing and his balls tightening in need as you push him through it, gasping in relief as he floats down from his high.

You grin at his fucked out state before getting up, not bothering to clean up the seed that's released on his belly.

"I'll be back in an hour. Remain good and I'll untie you." The widening of his eyes has you chuckling before you walk out of his bedroom, firmly locking the door behind you.

Random Christmas drabble : taking the stand

" so tell me Mr Bridgerton, after everything that's been said about Lady Debling and her character, her mysterious dealings with the press and her disatisfaction with her husband, with the evidence here in your hands, do you still not admit that on the morning of December 25 Penelope Debling killed her husband in cold blood!"

" I'm telling you that Penelope couldn't have done it, she's innocent! This is a misunderstanding"

" And pray tell why are you so convinced of that when all the evidence points to her guilt! Your under oath Mr Bridgerton! Answer the question!"

" BECAUSE LADY DEBLING WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR" Colin shouted exasperated, earning himself the shocked gasps of all the attendees in the room " And on the morning of December 25, she couldn't have realistically killed her husband because she was in Bloomsbury very much entangled in the arms of her lover, ME"

Needless to say the case of Lord Debling's murder took a dramatic turn after that.

i recently had a conversation with my mother on latino music which divulged on how rock was used to express ther political stance and disatisfaction with the body goverment back in the eighties , and i was wondering if in the past did rock troll voiced out their opinion of the monarchy throughout history? would you include this in the story?

So in reality I don't believe in monarchies and I think if Trolls were any more realistic, Rock Trolls would not be a monarchy. There kind of needs to be a "rule of child fantasy" here in that monarchies in universe aren't super corrupt and unfair and are seen as normal. Getting into the politics of it all is dangerous because I'm not looking to getting into the ethics of a monarchy.

I think if you had personal beef with the king thought you could absolutely make a song about it.

homelessness can happen for a lot of different reasons. the lack of affordable housing is said to be the main one. no matter how hard people work, many are always at risk of being unable to afford rent.

for me, that's a huge part of it, but there's also the mental health aspect of it. i've had just about every entry level job available. i've had jobs that allowed me to pay rent, though just barely. ive worked really, really hard. and unfortunately, for me, no amount of transitional housing is going to help if i'm always miserable working. no amount of job coaching is going to make it bearable for me. and historically, the mental health treatments ive tried (which are so, so many) just haven't worked.

it seems like the goal has always been to 'get on your feet' i.e. get a job and an apartment. the fact that a shocking amount of homeless people are working (including myself at some points) and even working multiple jobs and still haven't 'gotten on their feet' should say a lot. the fact that even people who have never been homeless are closer to homelessness than to owning a house should say a lot. the fact that a percentage of homeless people actually choose to be homeless should say a LOT. it tells me that the goal has shifted. what i was raised to want is now an impossible task.

it sucks because i know half the jobs ive had would have been easy for me if it was actually worth it. if the hours were less, the pay actually let me afford things beyond the bare minimum, and the working conditions were better. therapy and medication would probably work wonders if my disatisfaction with life wasnt completely rational. but it's all fucked, and we all know it.

it's taboo to say it, especially as a homeless person, but i don't want to work. i don't want an apartment. i don't want to own a house. maybe my views will change if things ever get better, but at this point, i don't want to engage with this flawed system at all anymore. i hate that my value is contigent on how well i can slot into the capitalist machine. i know i have value much more important than that, and i'd prefer to earn my place on this earth through my actual strengths. i want life, my connections with other people, and the work i do to have meaning and significance. until the world makes space for that, i'm more than happy taking a government check and living in a van with a cat so i can make art and stream and watch the sunset every night. that's my goal now
