“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.

At the theatre.

Large flocks of migratory #birds passing east of Edmonton Thursday afternoon. #abstorm @fisherspeaks.bsky.social

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

I take it it's time to jump on the Jays bandwagon

Also holy is this a beautiful piece of writing. Yes, it will likely make you cry bsky.app/profile/mehr...

Beautiful storytelling by Katie Engelhart. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m...

“Plots used to just appear to him, all the time and almost fully formed, as if they were limitless. But now they don’t. When, occasionally, #Munsch thinks of an idea for a story, he waits for the narrative to reveal itself & ‘nothing happens.’ The #story never comes.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/14/m...

I won a writing contest as a kid, and for my reward I was able to meet this man in all his 1980’s story telling glory. He was magnificent. Every ounce of him went into engaging so that you understood the magic he created. My heart hurts but understands his want to have control over his final chapter

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

The below story reveals Munsch has chosen medically assisted suicide. Here, in 2021, is him talking about the pending end of his life as he loses the ability to take part in life. "The stories will be the last thing to go" www.cbc.ca/radio/thenex...

this is a very good and incredibly sad piece about Canadian national treasure Robert Munsch, the author of phenomenal children's books Angela's Airplane, the Paper Bag Princess, Thomas's Snowsuit, and many others Munsch has dementia. Fuck dementia.

They should choose random fans for each team and have them each argue for and against a call for the challenges.

We've reached the point in Canada-U.S. relations where a nonprofit group from Wyoming reapplying to be allowed to continue to lead kayaking tours along Vancouver Island is controversial www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Thomas Muller on enjoying the city of Vancouver so far: "It's a nice city to enjoy the time, especially at this time of the year. Still, almost no rain, all these rain jokes I read about it, it was just fake, maybe." #VWFC

Ok but the new Limp Bizkit song .... kind of hits???????

Over the last few days, I’ve learned that this guy who said vile things about me and those whom I love was coded and sold as a young Mr. Rogers to a very receptive audience. Has helped me understand the general response. Journalists, however, are really blowing the moment by going along with it.

reposting with alt text because this feels incredibly significant. the right-wing disinfo machine means a lot of the people grieving Charlie Kirk never heard any of the things he said that would have tarnished his brand as Guy Who Just Wants to Have Dialogue Across the Aisle

Tonight's attendance: 26,031. The first time in the Whitecaps MLS era where they have had three consecutive sellouts with over 26K fans. #VWFC

Anyways listening to some son jarocho music

Image descriptions: The famous Cosmo image of a naked Burt Reynolds reclining on a bearskin rug, reinterpreted in Tlingit #formline style on a traditional leaf-bladed canoe paddle. The head of the bearskin Burt's reclining on, fills the point of the paddle blade. This is just too delightful

"It is sometimes considered gauche... to give words the weight of their meaning. As this thinking goes, there might be real belief, somewhere, in the provocations of our pundits, but much of it is just performance, and it doesn’t seem fair to condemn someone for the skill of putting on a good show."

Saw so many articles about how Charlie Kirk sought to explore new ideas and did so in good faith debates. Just watched this recent clip, which he or his org posted as feminism failing women. It starts with him being asked what the role of women in the world should be. He doesn't answer

BREAKING: This walking eagle’s gonna fly

This is a wild tag line for a vape shop at the back of a gas station

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔 on.ft.com/3K05vhS

Oh yeah here's some graffiti I saw this week

So anyways some advice that I’m glad I finally learned to listen to: 1. You do not need to post. You are not a public figure. People are not waiting for you to weigh in. 2. You can log off (see above).

Two of these - doubling capacity of Canada LNG and expanding the Red Chris mine - are in northwest B.C. and are already in the works www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

This sucks. Aside from Simon personally being one of the cornerstones of B.C. news reporting, it is hard to overstate the extent to which Global = the news for so many people in B.C. I’ve never worked there but so many ppl assumed I solid over the years because that’s what the news is to them!!

In February last year, BC’s Ministry of Forests wrote a letter telling CN rail it believed the company played a role in the fire that destroyed Lytton. It intended to seek costs. Six weeks later, it reversed course and closed its file. My latest for @thetyee.ca. thetyee.ca/News/2025/09...

I'm so glad I saved the pun by putting it in the captions

Btw if this is your first encounter with me and you are wondering “ok but what other sort of reporting does he do” here’s another recent scoop www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Every word and detail of this is perfection

This story is a journey

Andrew has the story of the day.

Your must-read story for Monday.

I love this story for its Prince George characters. Perfectly composed, Andrew.

So many great quotes in this.
