My Autistic kid being an Autistic kids isn't a fucking problem. Your Autistic kid being an Autistic kid isn't a fucking problem. That we've built whole systems that only serve one type of person is a fucking problem.

C’mon #NovaScotia and #Halifax tweeps. Y’all know how much @ShelterNS could do if we made this 50/50 even half as big a Fire Fighters? Help support the Shelter Nova Scotia's 'Homes For All' 50/50 Draw - March and have a chance to win some real prizes. rafflebox.ca/raffle/homesfor…

Hey #halifax Twitter. ICYMI there a 50/50 draw (ends in 20 mins!) for Shelter Nova Scotia. These folks are helping people in our community who need supports and help. Imagine if we made this raffle as big as the NS firefighters? homesforall5050.com @ShelterNS

Watching @nswebcams at high tide this morning (9:30am). I’ve never seen anything like this! Waves crashing overtop the path to the lighthouse! Hunker down and stay safe folks! #HurricaneLee #NSStorm

Grind your coffee beans before hand for the stove top coffeemaker Never got rid of our camping stove. Comes in handy out here with small pleasures of coffee Can even make a Thai curry& a pot of rice on it But won’t prevent the crawlspace from flooding. Can’t have everything🙃

Looking for a way to support the people who did some amazing things during the #NSfires ? Consider purchasing a weekly 50/50 ticket and help support the Nova Scotia SPCA. Funds raised help make it possible for them to continue to do good work. rafflebox.ca/raffle/nsspca

As Nova Scotians, we are adjusted to some level of destruction from hurricanes. With hurricanes you prepare. You brace for impact. And wake up the next day ready to clean up. The wildfires just appeared. We’ve just had to watch. And they continue. saltwire.com/nova-scotia/opi…

Outlook For Next Week Normally in early June, a blocking pattern would be the last thing you would want to see. However, given the current situation, this is exactly what we need. A blocked low will slowly track through, bringing cloudy, damp and cool weather. #nswx #NSFire 2/2

A huge thanks to the 911 operators and logistics folks who are handling all these fire calls. Your efforts to dispatch first responders so they can save people, animals, and homes haven’t gone unnoticed #NSFire

Latest view of the Shelburne County fire via the @sentinel_hub satellite. High res imagery shows the incredible growth of the fire, from ~1300 hectares on Sunday, to ~17,000 hectares on Wednesday. SWIR (short-wave infrared bands) allow a better view of impact areas. #NSFire #nswx
