I was lucky to join Jode for one of his coffee dates last year where I was delighted to learn that he is responsible and involved with *so many* things I love around the city - butterfly and nature projects, plaques, public art interventions, community joy iniatives… #Toronto

Excellent Toronto Ornithological Club talk last night from Junaid Khan. Wonderful insight into the Birds of Anishinaabe Aki project he co-leads with Joseph Pitawanakwat and Andrés Jiménez, and the Anishinaabemowin language. A new winter bird guide is here! ⬇️ outdoorlearning.com/product/anis...

Samiya, 17, led her Los Angeles high school's walkout. "The White House has a TikTok account, and they’ll post things like 'deportation ASMR'. You go on YouTube the night before school, and you watch an ad of Kristi Noem threatening everybody who has ever come to this country. It’s frightening."

THREAD. A selection of notes I have made in my notebook about my dad, and the things he does. 1. The Public Swimming Pool

That glorious clear water meant for beautiful contrast under all the various black and white ducks. In a mixed raft I couldn’t find any redheads (often a few with scaups) but many scaups, a few buffleheads (underwater most of the time), goldeneyes and a few photobombing geese.

Black Public Joy is on shelves in large and local bookstores across Canada & the U.S. Through practice stories across many cities & research, I assert that Black public joy, and public joy of all kinds is civic, cultural & spatial infrastructure. DM for book talk & public joy mapping engagements.

“Much like the literal whistleblowers currently helping keep their streets safe from federal agents in cities around the U.S., the people of Pollokshields were simply ready to drop everything and stand up for a stranger” —The @avclub.com on Everybody To Kenmure Street www.avclub.com/everybody-to...

What a win for nature! Scotland is the first UK country to have Swift bricks in law – a lifeline for this threatened bird. And, for the first time ever, the Scottish Government must set legally binding nature recovery targets. Thanks for helping make history with a strong Natural Environment Bill.

My take away from what’s happening in Minneapolis is that it crushes the lie that people are by nature selfish. When the time calls for it, people can do astonishing things to keep their communities safe in the face of all odds.
