To so much of the news I hear the voice of the great David Byrne in head, one of my favourite lyrics of all time: And if our cells are our destiny I want to be free of biology

If they put the amount of money going into data centres into renewables and managing climate change first - we’d be doing I’m sure better than any of us can imagine

Buying new jean shorts seems insane to me. When you need some is when you get to buy new jeans and sacrifice the legs of an old.

I think there needs to be rule, law, whatever, about closed captions, at least in movies and tv shows, be correct. It so often is not. A single word can make a world of difference.

swore I would never bike in TO but by a ginormous margin it is the best option to get to my studio (48min walk which is a bit much for both ways each day). Now I’m just swearing out loud at a cycling map. There is a big ass hole of no lanes trying to get out of my neighborhood.

That we have let the biggest losers with no vision or care for humanity and the planet hoard and rule is the beyond me. Honestly fuck these pathetic losers. We need an enormous paradigm shift or we have simply thrown in the towel and accepted the saddest outcome the entirety of history in jest.

Legal experts just confirmed Danielle Smith's private health care law breaks the Canada Health Act. Wealthy patients pay to skip the line. Everyone else waits longer. Protecting public healthcare is the federal government's job. So why is PM Carney letting Conservatives dismantle it?

Just me or is this the saddest Met carpet ever? Blah. I’ve long defended the Met Gala as a fundraising event (for whatever reason the costume institute is the only Met department that has to self fund) - but if you get the most out of touch psycho hoarders to head it I guess this is the end

Harper would say he was going to do something awful and conservative and then he would do it. Trudeau was performative in saying he was going to do something progressive and then not doing it. Carney says he will do progressive things, but then he does things that are awful and conservative.

Why are the Liberals so obsessed with Billy Bishop Airport, a tiny boutique airport that carries less than 5% of Toronto’s passenger traffic? “We must look at how passenger volumes might grow.” -
@juliedabrusin.bsky.social
Why? Who says that is in the public interest? Based on what?

I’ve cycled through trying to be vegetarian in my life, to varying success, but the easiest hard no for my adult life is I will absolutely not eat octopus. It’s the invertebrate equivalent to deciding to eat an elephant imo

I’m in the testing problem solving stage of a new series of pictures, full of disappointments, this is everything. Nothing feels better. A zillion micro epiphanies. In time-space. My inclination is this isn’t specific to me or the creative class it’s universal. Yet technolords want to take it away

I’d thought I’d saved one or two failed mount prints when I moved because a big sheet of dibond is usefully in the studio - I needed it today so I pulled them out. Turns out I did junk them, but in turn I found where my former studio assistant packed about 2k of acrylics etc. I thought lost 😭😭

Two crossing guards in Ontario have been killed on the job in less than six months (and both since the Ford government emboldened motorists by removing speed safety cameras). There should be a public inquest or coroner's report. This is not acceptable.

"Benches are where optimistic visions of civic life meet reality. To remove them, or to curate who gets to sit, is to abandon the work of defining a civic ideal and determining, together, how to live up to it." NEW: Why benches are slowly disappearing from public spaces — and why we need them back:

The Disappearance of the Public Bench
Benches are microcosms of an expansive debate about who belongs in urban public spaces. When they are removed or made uninviting, we lose more than just a place to rest.

Truth. I’ve missed maybe 3 or 4 flights, the first time I’d read the date wrong and was late by….3 days. It was so fine. Out of CDG so decent airport wine;) Another time I missed a connecting flight and was very tired and this is how I learned you can rent an airport hotel room for a half day!

Here's the thing, though. "I believe that abortion is murder and churches should have the right to torture gay youth" is a pretty big stance to take and if she's willing to abandon those "values" to march the party line, then she's got no integrity. But if she stands by those values, she's a traitor

After Trump's latest genocidal utterances, I'm posting this again from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944: “America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.
