Blep! It's getting cold out! Join me in cleaning out your closet and donating all unwanted clothes to your local shelter. Last week my friends and I gathered hundreds of bags of clothing and donated them to the #MiddleEasternFriendshipCenter for the influx of #syrianrefugees expected in Vancouver within the next month. This week I'll be dropping off donations to the local women's shelter and Covenant House. Tag some friends you want to get involved! ππππππ π‘π’ππ
πIt is officially my birthday! This has been the most challenging and incredible year of my life. Forever thankful for all my amazing friends that are the cause of my never ending laughter and smiles. The best birthday gift you could possibly give me is voting in the upcoming Canadian and American elections (and Tom Hardy). Let's use our voices to make a positive difference! We are the generation that can save the world! #youngdemocrats #BabesForBernie #progressivethinking #powertothepeople #happybirthdaytome
πβοΈπ¨π¦ Hi Canadian friends! Just me here with my Pumpkin Spice Latte in a reusable to go cup π! It's Thanksgiving weekend and you know what that means right? It's the perfect chance to convince your family to NOT vote Conservative! It may ruin Thanksgiving but it will save our country. Why? Check the links below for the damage that Stephen Harper has done to our country in the past 10 years, and recently with bills C-51 and C-24 which makes me and many other Canadians "second class citizens". This election I am encouraging everyone to vote strategically based on whichever left candidate is highest in their riding. I wish for a day to one day vote out of passion but for that to come we must get Stephen Harper and the Conservative government out. π¨π¦ π¨π¦ π¨π¦ Info on strategic voting: http://www.strategicvoting.ca/ π¨π¦ π¨π¦ π¨π¦ Why Stephen Harper is awful: https://bccla.org/2015/06/its-official-second-class-citizenship-goes-into-effect/ http://www.shd.ca/ https://nowtoronto.com/news/features/stephen-harpers-war-on-women/ π¨π¦ π¨π¦ π¨π¦ @slutsforharper #anyonebutharper #smashthepatriarch #youngdemocrats
It is incredible how much we are all capable of once we start believing in ourselves. The moment I started to search for answers from within, rather than an alternate source, the more I realized my magnetism as an individual. Growing up Orthodox and attending Catholic school til I was 15 I was taught to always put my trust in someone else (God) before putting trust in myself. It wasn't until I was around 18 or 19 that I started to question everything and search for answers from within. Over the years my skepticism led me to so many wonderful sources and outlets filled with tangible answers and logical meaning. I believe we all have the capacity to truly 'be amazing'. Regardless of your faiths or beliefs, for those searching for answers here are some resources that helped me greatly: Council for #SecularHumanism advocates and defends a nonreligious life stance rooted in science, naturalistic philosophy, and humanist ethics https://www.secularhumanism.org/index.php/10 #CFI Center For Inquiry Canada provides education and training to the public in the application of skeptical, secular, rational and humanistic inquiry http://centreforinquiry.ca/ http://www.bchumanist.ca/about β€οΈππππ #secular #humanist #science

**Now that I have your attention** π Every woman has the right do whatever she pleases without judgement from others. If you believe it makes you inherently more "badass" to put other women down in pathetic attempt to elevate yourself, you my dear internal misogynist friend are so wrong. Perhaps your intention IS to elevate other women? Well, your delivery is completely off. If a woman you know is a self-proclaimed or peer appointed "Instagram Model" or "DNB" (Do Nothing Bitch) and she's happy and her actions harm no one, let her do her thing. It's her own right and frankly, not your or anyone's business. However, if at the end of the day you truly believe she and other women you encounter could do better, please encourage and enlighten them to be better. Be PRO-ACTIVE about it: Share and discuss with them some of your favourite scholarly articles, take them with you to volunteer at a soup kitchen, join the Big Brothers Big Sisters of America etc. If we truly want to see other women succeed we must never point our fingers and judge, rather we must take them by the hand and lead together. Yes, this is in a response to the horrible "Instagram Models" video currently circulating the internet. If you are confused as to why it is SO wrong I'll be happy to explain. Hi @ibnicolearbour, see you.ππΌ #DVDASA #fbf #gniLA
Say you'll see me again even if it's just in your wildest dreams @taylorswift
I love when this happens βοΈ
