I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

When he gave the Grammy to that young boy who made everyone think of Liam…even if that wasn’t actually Liam, it was just the perfect way of cutting through all the bullshit. Every kid impacted by this administration’s cruelty is another Liam.

It’s Prince in 2007 and then that. Best two, no doubt

FUCK LUMA! FREE PUERTO RICO!!! BAD BUNNY FOREVER!!!!!

Commenting on energy injustice is now the floor for any halftime act.

that was a stellar performance and production, you killed it bad bunny

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books. She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it. It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

If you thought 'no one is illegal on stolen land' was too radical wait until you start crying and pissing your pants because you saw a '90s pic of Zack de la Rocha wearing an 'ilegal, y que' shirt by Crudos.

The $75-million, Amazon-funded Melania Trump documentary is tanking at the box office, but a 2018 erotic thriller that depicts the First Lady as a sexual monster is rocketing up Amazon’s sales charts. www.404media.co/erotic-parod...

always interesting to me how worker-owned media is framed as a new thing. there is a deep history here, especially in canada, so @tombeedham.bsky.social, @lesliekenchu.bsky.social and i went long on how @newfeelingcoop.bsky.social's work is connected to the cooperative movement in media and beyond.

Send Help was so fun! Raimi is BACK baybeee

Here's a profile of Beverly Glenn-Copeland, the synth pioneer who was handed the miracle of a career resurgence a decade ago, and who has a new album out today. Now Glenn needs another miracle: to keep making music through dementia – and to find a home www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

journalistic malpractice or ignorance to write a whole article about this and not mention that the current chief of police in Toronto participated in raids against queer spaces as recently as the year 2000, such as the infamous Pussy Palace raid www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I recently caught up with Luke of Montreal-based punk band BRICKIE to talk about their upcoming EP ‘III’, the current state of the world, retaining a sense of wonder, playing Pouzza Fest, and so much more!! ✨Read at the link in my bio!!✨

Here nor there, remember when the Toronto police spied on one of the few police board chairs who actually stood up to them? There's a long history of goon behaviour that never seems to move any needles. www.newspapers.com/article/the-...

cops: sex trafficking victims are impossible to find! most of them don’t even know they’ve been trafficked. dozens of women over decades: here’s our sworn statements about jeff epstein cops: … prosecutors: … anti-trafficking task forces: … cops: we have no choice but to do a craigslist sting

i love to take every opportunity i can to share the story of when ontario tried to reform its police force by firing every single one of them www.tvo.org/article/dere...

CBC: Towing-related violence has been a major issue in Toronto. In 2024, there were 63 shooting and firearm discharge incidents related to tow-truck disputes, accounting for almost 13 per cent of all such incidents that year. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"Officers are accused of trafficking, leaking addresses to hitmen, and leaking police officer addresses, the sources said. The investigation also uncovered a conspiracy to kill a unit commander at the Toronto South Detention Centre, the sources said." Holy Christ. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Listen to the voicemail that Doug Ford left for an Ontario public servant after they texted the premier with concerns about the return to office mandate. Ford relays some advice from his mother: "you don't like it, go get another job." My latest w @ericwickham.ca @pressprogress.ca

We've just launched the new IndigiNews Refocus Photojournalism Fellowship: Mi’kma’ki! A chance for Indigenous photojournalists in Canada to learn from industry-leaders in an expenses-paid bootcamp, in Mi’kma’ki / Kjipuktuk (Halifax) May 17 - 23, 2026. More here: www.refocusfellowship.ca

Also, one journalist is dependent on access via PR in a way that a larger institution is not. Harder to raise "negative" topics or be critical in a meaningful way.

The war on work from home is in large part a war on women having a career btw

i also think it's not in our best interest to start solo newsletters! the tech companies behind them benefit greatly from the erosion of good media jobs and the wider landscape

woof wish I had checked the news before venturing toward union station today www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I have a new chapter in the 2026 edition of Policing Black Lives on how police reform has expanded police power to surveil, monitor and criminalize Black communities for 70+ years now. Did you know in Canada community policing (first in parkdale, in Toronto ) has been a “reform” since the 1960s?

It's probably not a good "reform" if your opponents adopt it before you even pass the bill

At some point we will just deal with the fact that part of this is post separation abuse . They are punishing the victims for trying to “leave” the circle of silence . They know the way the victims were treated is shameful and they want to transfer that shame

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Here is an email that Elon Musk, current world’s richest man and owner of a social media network that generated child sexual abuse material on demand, sent to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein on November 11, 2012: “What day/night will be the wildest party on your island?” www.404media.co/musk-to-epst...

At every single stage of my life there has been a movie or show suited for my age group in which Catherine O’Hara was a standout player. This just sucks, man.

Fuck.
