Happy Caturday! Cats are natural anti capitalists.

Great news!

When journalism was cool. And risked everything to challenge power.

If you're a writer that's currently thinking "What am I doing with my life? How did I get here?" just know that Peter Benchley partly wrote the novel JAWS in a converted chicken coop at his in-laws' house.

CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.

This is amazing!

George Lucas and his wife, Melody Hobson in their Skywalker Ranch Library. I wouldn’t be mad at a virtual tour of the entire space. #reading #books #library

Stunning! An 8-hour time-lapse to show the Earth is rotating while capturing the Milky Way.

Took a while to get around to watching it, but loving The Residence so far. The writing is witty, the comedic timing is on point and the quick edit cuts are fun! #mystery #crime #comedy

Happy to have the bandwidth to work on book edits after the last few months of juggling a challenging TV series, overlapping two features. Phew! #amediting #gratitude

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

So exciting! #spaceexploration #science #astronomy

Very cool how they integrated technology with infrastructure: Canada Deploys First AI-Driven Carbon Capture Wall On A City Street furez.site/canada-deplo... #Vancouver #Innovation #Tech

"The sky is the ultimate art gallery just above us." -Ralph Waldo Emerson

The church said it's terminating a decades-long partnership with the federal government to help refugees arriving in the U.S., citing moral opposition to resettling white Afrikaners from South Africa.

I like this guy already!

Suggestion @mark-carney.bsky.social- how about we remove subsidies for foreign-owned media and start investing more in Canadian film industry. #canadianfilm #film #indiefilm #CanadaStrong #HollywoodNorth

It never was the best country in the world. The American Dream was only a White Delusion.

It’s a good week for democracy in Canada and Australia! Glad both countries punted fascism! This page succinctly summarised modern conservatism. #democracy #fightfascism

Today is voting day. You can cast your ballot at your local polling stations, open all day. After polls close, The Tyee will publish updates on results as they come in and have reporters check in from Conservative, Green, Liberal and NDP election-night gatherings — so please drop by. #CdnElxn2025

Voting took 15mins this morning. Get out there and #vote if you haven’t already #Canada our #democracy depends on it! #CanadaElections2025 #cdnpoli

This is a good analysis of how trickle down economics actually works. Hint - it only works for the 1%. #trickledowneconomics #billionaires #onepercent #biggestscam substack.com/inbox/post/1...

If you haven’t already seen it, I recommend checking out The Antisocial Network: Memes to Mayhem (2024) doc. It’s an interesting look at the evolution of the internet and where we are today. #doc #documentary #film #antisocialnetwork m.imdb.com/title/tt3118...

We’re all angry and worried and maybe some don’t feel like creating or no longer feel like it matters, but keep writing, painting, dancing, making music, making art. Not doing the things that bring you joy—not making art—doesn’t help. Do what you love harder than ever.

There’s a few #films I haven’t seen yet on this list: newsletter.oscars.org/what-to-watc... #MLKday

In honour of #MLKday I compiled a list of MLK #books📚 📗Stride toward freedom the Montgomery story by Martin Luther King, Jr. 📕Why we can't wait by Martin Luther King, Jr. 📘 Where do we go from here chaos or community? by Martin Luther King, Jr. 📙 All labor has dignity by Martin Luther King, Jr

Today, 130 million Americans—54% of adults aged 16-74—lack the literacy skills that many take for granted, reading below the equivalent of a sixth-grade level. www.apmresearchlab.org/10x-adult-li...

Well this is timely! Glad to hear it.

This couldn’t have been a better endorsement for me to watch,The Apprentice. #film #indiefilm

As the new year commitments to better health continue, let’s dig into sugar. #healthyeating #heathyhabits #lifestyle Sugar is Everywhere medium.com/@alisa.luke/...

Need to spend more time here in the zen place and less time getting sucked into the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party aka X fighting for democracy. 🕉️

Such a heartwarming story. Highly recommend if you haven’t already watched Arthur the King, but be prepared to get hit in the feels #movie #arthurtheking #dogs #dogsarethebest youtu.be/wjDJNEPghNY

I recommend no fewer than 4 copies of any beloved book. A paperback for traveling and lending to friends, an eBook for reading with greasy snack fingers, an audio book so you know how the characters' names are actually pronounced, and a pristine hardcover to be buried with you like a pharaoh

Admittedly, I haven’t read any historical fiction before. However, I am excited to check out The Champagne Letters! Grabbing my copy today #thechampagneletters @katemacintoshbooks
