Thank you, Catherine. Image reposted with alt text

48 complainants and the judge didn’t believe a single one of them. And there were more women who experienced the same thing, with no charges laid. I wonder if this piece of shit “neurologist” was examining the penises of his male patients? I hope he’s broke and shunned for the rest of his life.

Remember this when they tell you we can’t afford social housing, good health care or transit, UBI, clean water for Indigenous people, support for arts & culture, etc

“Our results show that contaminated flooding will become more frequent, more extensive, and eventually a daily occurrence rather than a storm-driven one.” Never thought of this aspect of climate change - daily poop floods!

The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa’s Hawaiʻi Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) and the Waikīkī Aquarium are collaborating to increase awareness of the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Sanctuary through lectures, a revamped exhibit, and educational programs. 🌊

Oops I did it again Haul from the Brantford Symphony Orchestra annual book sale Authors & titles in alt text #booksky

Good news! This person was not evicted and was supported into a housing placement.

Spent 6 hours over 4 phone calls getting my Rogers account switched over from my dead husband to me. They just called me and asked to speak to him 😭🤬 Worst customer service in the world

Happy Earth Day from Ricky Biscuits, recycling inspector

Israel performed a literal quadruple tap attack in Lebanon to massacre three separate sets of medics. Truly pushing the bounds of human depravity. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Weeks after the Lindy West discourse, I’ve finished the book. If she says she’s happy, I believe her (believe women!) But I think if/when it no longer suits her, she’s painted herself into staying in this throuple, because she’s so publicly and vociferously defended it. #booksky #nonfiction

I’m back already, it’s my new fave lunch spot. And it’s a non-profit that helps to raise funds for The Working Centre

Men should wake up every day grateful that women only want equality and not revenge.

This is SELF-REPORTED behaviour

How is this guy able to do so much so quickly? In Canada they do a staff report that takes a year then wrangle about it for 6 months then start phase 1 as a pilot project then do another report on the pilot project then adjust the parameters then

Serious question: What did you eat today? Because I don’t care about food, will eat anything if it’s put in front of me but since my husband died no one puts anything in front of me. So I struggle to have decent food in the house (pls repost too, I want to hear about lots of yummy meals)

I don’t know if anyone’s coined it already but if not: slopaganda. You heard it here first

I tweeted about this years ago and a veteran journo thought I was talking about someone else, a reporter who took up with a crime victim’s mother years earlier. So that’s 2 men. And if we’re counting B. Lilley, that’s 3 male journos I’m aware of. Still no women.

In my 20+ years in and around journalism I’ve known exactly one (1) journalist who slept with a source and it was a man. Every woman I’ve met in journalism is way, way too aware of the scrutiny they’re under to even contemplate it.

If you haven’t been yet, Queen Street Commons has reopened in DTK. Veggie burgers only $7! Fresh new space and they do catering.

Using their own names to publicly make threats against Indigenous people and judges. Dumb as hell, couldn’t revelutionize their way out of a hockey rink.

The Helen Dewitt discourse is getting stinky. Seems like an issue that could have/should have been sorted. But let’s celebrate the Windham-Campbell recipients. Especially pleased to see Lucy Sante and Canadian Karen Solie. windhamcampbell.org

I can’t adopt Miller but maybe you can! He sounds like a great dog and he’s very handsome

The Liberals make clear they stand for nothing but their own power by welcoming this kook into the party. Embarrassing

There are A LOT of Dodgers fans here, we talked to a big group on the way in who came from LA for this (boooooo) #BlueJays

BOOOOOOOOOOOO (warming up for tonight)

Spent last week working on this piece and it made me ache with sadness. Kadin Savikataaq of Arviat, Nunavut, was an accomplished young woman. A pilot, a hunter, a hockey player. She went out one night in Aug. 2024 and never returned. Her family is desperate for answers. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Hi

It’s refreshing to hear someone articulate at length and intelligently about moral values and responsibilities vs the cascade of ignorant soundbites we’re regularly subjected to. Highly recommend watching this entire interview (and you’ll learn how to pronounce Avi’s name correctly).

Canada in a nutshell: the Weston’s new media venture Be Giant has an editorial mission to be optimistic and solutions oriented… and today published a story about Big Oil’s Pathways Alliance project that treats the “decarbonized oil” lie as a genuine opportunity. www.begiant.ca/stories/plac...

When I first heard about "Be Giant", I thought great! Kind of an odd name, but so glad to hear there's new media in Canada! Then I found out that it's backed by the Weston family, who have contributed to food insecurity and the privatization of healthcare and I'm like no, thanks. You can keep it.

It’s a good day to support independent media like @halifaxexaminer.ca @thenarwhal.ca @thediscourse.ca @nationalobserver.com @readthemaple.com etc.

New billionaire-funded media. This time it’s Galen Price-Fixing Weston himself. “Not reliant on subscription or advertising revenue,” - the propaganda is free archive.ph/2026.03.13-2...

Doug Ford is going to handpick our regional chair for us? Gotta love conservatives, I can smell the freedom from here.

🚨 important update 🚨 My daughter is adopting him, I’m going to be a Nana again 🩵

Working through this one essay per day. Baldwin was a world-class hater and very quotable. He wrote an excoriating book review and the author took his own life a few days later. #nonfiction #booksky

Books finished in March. I really liked all of these except the Booker shortlisted one. I’ve been sticking to my plan to read a short story or essay every day, and this New Yorker collection is mostly killer, little filler. #litfic #nonfiction #booksky

This book (I think recommended by @evaholland.bsky.social and/or @clairecameron.bsky.social) is absolutely incredible. There’s also a documentary of the same name on YouTube, made by Heuer’s filmmaker wife and travel partner, Leanne Allison. Highly recommend both.

Far too many leftists have made losing-in-advance their praxis

Can you imagine complaining about hope in dark times? We won’t defeat fascism waiting for perfection to show up.

My entire feed is awash with people complaining that Avi Lewis isn’t perfect, that protests don’t do anything, that general strikes and economic strikes aren’t possible. I’m sorry to tell you but if we want to defeat fascism and build a better world, we may have to experience minor inconvenience!

How will Avi Lewis pay for his big ideas? Taxing billionaires and corporations. “Banks made $70 billion in profits last year…Grocery baron Galen Weston alone is worth $20 billion,” Avi says. “The money is there my friends. We need a government with the courage to go and get it for all of us.”
