It's Canadian Thanksgiving, and I'm super-thankful for these kind words. “A charming tribute to the unrelenting and unconditional acceptance a dog gives.” – Mike Boldt “We could all stand to learn to love like a dog loves. Kids do it best, and every kid is going to fall for this book.” – Adam Rex

Had the great privilege of seeing him rally the troops in a Victoria riding during the 2015 election. A masterful speech by a great Canadian in a smaller setting than others of his stature would be seen at.

There are a gazillion reasons to criticize Trump, but can we please retire the "this isn't normal" critique? I don't give one flying eff if a practice is normal or not. Plenty of normal approaches are horrible and well worth jettisoning.

I submitted the second draft of my new book to the publisher today! It’s really coming together! The book is called “How to Build a Universe”; it’s about what the universe is made of (particles? fields? something weirder?) & how we physicists build our own theoretical universes to figure it all out

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

Now, as always, is a good time to read WORLD'S FUNNEST, written by
@evandorkin.bsky.social
and drawn by a host of comics legends: Mike Allred, Sheldon Moldoff, David Mazzucchelli, Jaime Hernandez, and so many more. Mr. Mxyzptlk and Bat-Mite kill everyone in every dimension, and it's hilarious!
