Unrelated moments from the past two weeks.

Message from Ukraine: Thank you, Canada. For being yourselves when so many others are trying to be worse. You reminded us that we are not alone. Because of you, this morning felt a little less like the end of the world. And more like something worth staying alive for. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Four unrelated photos. Enjoy.

Not a word of a lie: I have been given the task of hunting down the remains of a sea monster. I think I’m in the right career.

Preparing for markets next weekend… Let market season begin!

Here's my video on Day 1 of the federal election campaign, looking at B.C.'s electoral map. Featuring charts! References to small towns! The implicit understanding that nothing on this earth is forever and society is inherently tenuous!

Last week, I read a book which was, beyond doubt, the worst novel I’ve ever read. This week, I’m reading a novel that has, in its beauty, inspired me to new heights. That’s what I love about reading: you learn something from every book you open — even the really, really terrible ones.

Let’s talk writing! Settings! The little rituals that get the creativity flowing… This was such a fun interview. Thanks Sharon! www.mixcloud.com/cvox/sharon-...

Never be afraid to write your heart out. To write your ass off. To write until your hands cramp. Because when you look back at the miles of ink behind you you might just have a masterpiece.

Asking people if they wanna see a cool rock you found is so important, because that’s the best way to know if you should invite them into your blanket fort to look at the Guinness book of world records
