Just Some Canadian Things

if you were born between 1995-2000 and are canadian you should really check out this playlist I made of 776 songs (and counting!) that remind me of my childhood... with 18 being the cut off okay my playlist my rules and some of these are more recent than others

I am a black lesbian who has lived in fear of her violently abusive and homophobic father for over two decades. He has been physically and emotionally violent since my infancy, and he began to sexually abuse me in 2015. He does not know I am a lesbian, and if he finds out, he will not hesitate to kill me. He has attempted to kill me several times over the course of my life, and after a recent attempt, I have realized that I can no longer put off escaping. More details about the abuse I have suffered are available here if needed.

I initially planned to leave in a year’s time to hide away enough money for rent, prepare what I need, and give myself the best chance of a secure and permanent escape – other women who have tried to flee my family have been hunted by my father and his brothers and dragged back. My father forces financial control on me and other members of my family, and so I do not have enough saved. However, my living situation has become imminently dangerous, and so I must dramatically shorten my timeline.

Please help me leave and stay gone. All I want is to live in peace.

The best part about Canada 150 is that there is maple flavoured EVERYTHING right now.

Maple milk, maple poutine, maple marshmallows, maple coffee, maple alcohol.

It’s the tulip festival again and there’s a new edition this year!!

The Canadian flag tulip!

Designed specifically in the Netherlands to look like the Canadian Maple leaf. Its so cute!!! There’s a bunch of buds that’s are on the verge of blooming, all of them the new one, but as you can see there are a few that have bloomed already!
