Finally Here: The Obligatory Introductory Post
Hi all, Andrea here. After being warmly and graciously welcomed by @daniarnold, and then ushered in by @aggroed, I've finally ventured outside of the farcebook sandbox to play with the big kids. ;)
I am a proud #UnFucker, and left the corporate world over 10 years ago after working at the Vancouver Law Courts for quite some time. I now run 3 non-MLM home-based businesses. On top of being a proud #conspiracytheorist.
Since beginning my new life, I've become an avid animal advocate (with 2 furbaby rescues living with me) and an enthusiastic activist in general. Over the years, I've put my community on the map for organizing a number of grassroots events like #Occupy, #IdleNoMore, #MarchAgainstMonsanto, #MMIWG and other local causes.
I am also a proud Anishinaabekwe from #Wikwemikoong Unceded First Nation, with ties to #Celtic, #Viking, and #Sami ancestry. Quite intricate, but I try to honour my ancestors as best I can as a #Canadian.
On that note, I'm super duper excited to be here. And I'm excited to share and grow with the rest of you too. :)

Thanks, D. And thanks for letting us all ride in on your coattails ;)
I've heard Monsanto is connected to GMO, to bad stuff, or something: I think they try to make seedless food or like food with dead seeds or food that cannot reproduce.... etc.... So, it is good to march against them. And, also, Facebook has problems. Some of my ancestors were Dutch. Love animals. Oh, my last name is Arnold, just like Dani Arnold, @daniarnold, I'm assuming. What is an #unfucker? I'll try to Google try. Love your photos here. Welcome. I'm Oatmeal. Upvoted. Resteemed.
My Anti-Moncrappo stuff began way back in 2011. Since then, it's led me to help with some really awesome initiatives in my community, like making sure just about every neighbourhood has access to a community garden, and free organic veggies for those who are low-income (which is, like, everyone these days).
@daniarnold did up a great synopsis of how we all came together as #unfuckers. If this forum allows for hyperlinks in replies, then I'll copy it here. If not, it's on D's feed from a day or two ago.
Followed you back as well. Looking forward to seeing your posts :)

Good work with being involved with #unfucker and everything.
Good work on being...human...and stuff <---more of an assumption on my end, the human part lol
