another friend gone to the toxic drug supply. the third one this year. i feel so nauseated thinking about how she didn't have to die, and that her kids didn't have to lose a mom.

how are we supposed to just continue onward from these losses. it feels totally wrong to just continue with our routines. today feels heavy

One of the strangest and most devastating things about grief is the loss of trust in social reality. When the person you most love in the world, the person whose survival and thriving is your highest priority, dies, it tears at reality itself.

truth and reconciliation is realizing that the drug poisoning crisis is violently anti-Indigenous and the government not providing safe supply is just another, more covert manifestation of the genocidal efforts of the residential school system

anyone know of any material out there which talks about language used to describe substance use and doesn't draw heavily from "anti-stigma" public health literature? doesn't need to be academic/peer-reviewed

sometimes i feel like the cultural emphasis on trauma, and its explanatory power, to the exclusion of other narratives, has narrowed the vocabulary with which to think about emotional life—and about the relationship of the past with the present

Sidney was my dance student for many years and my dear friend. This loss has absolutely destroyed me. She didn't have to die. BC's drug poisoning crisis is a PUBLIC health emergency, and we should all be fucking scared and sad. I'm tired of people I love dropping dead
