Grabbing more supplements & one new prescription for Mom.

We're stocked up on rice now.
Mom's rice supplies anxiety is reduced for awhile.

@staringatclouds The Satanist claims to get rid of JWs seem to be popular with many white ppl 😂
I'm Teochew Taoist so I just need my small 150 yr old gong (with hella big sound) & a strong, steady monotonous voice & a resting bitch face to freak out JWs 🤣
@fmhilton Yes, we have witches in our culture.

Mom just saw Jehovah's Witnesses doing door to door recruiting outside & laughed when they looked at our house & skipped knocking on it. Mom's howling with laughter & telling me I should go ring my gong a couple times to see if they'll jump/run back to car. Last time JWs came to our door & wouldn't accept 'We're Taoists & not interested' answer - I stopped talking. Grabbed my gong, banged it & chanted 'Leave Now' in #Teochew, until they got scared & left. They never came back👍
With my nonbinary Korean fellow activist friend, from Vancouver, at VGH. We met over 2 yrs ago on remote frontlines & were one of very few Asian activists with boots on the ground at protest camps in BC. They're an amazing human being. We worked on deescalation training, accessibility solutions & nonviolent defense tactics together.

Mom brought home some #rambutans from Chinatown 😊
They're closely related to lychee & longan #TropicalFruits from #SoutheastAsia areas.

#ThrowbackThursday
My first time enjoying Pease Lake in the Highlands. 2019.
My friend, Lyrica, introduced me to this lake 🥰 We've been back a few times since this day. We took a small inflatable boat out & paddled to far end of lake. There was only 4 other people at lake at other end.
You can see part of my atrophied legs here - left is thinner than right.

@DaywalkingRedhead @MaJ1 @Babcia54 He/They will likely get away with it - since the system is corrupt & rot is from the top. However, they're not getting away with it very easily & I'm going to be a big thorn in their #antimasking #CovidEugenics side for at least a year, trying to pursue some justice. Maybe it's enough to make them not pull abuses of power on immunocompromised families in the future.

I initiated Rise For the Fallen rally in Victoria. In this article, I talk about how 2 of my Uncles were murdered for trying to defend our matriarch homelands & why I'll fight against ecocide til I'm dead.

I look like shit in that article. Photo taken the morning after I'd returned to blockade after being assaulted by RCMP & dumped after being kidnapped by them - in middle of nowhere - in pouring rain at 2am. My friends followed their van & rescued me.

It's currently 25C° in the shade 🌡
My feet are soaking in cold water in a bucket on the deck.

Current event. Getting ready to eat this, on back deck.
This is dried shrimp rice noodles, with Vietnamese pork sausage. Our homegrown cucumbers & Thai mint were added. Nuoc cham sauce poured over it all. I add chili paste atop & mix it all up before eating it all.
