"The official also said that the timing of the announcement -- occurring during Pride month -- was intentional." I've seen enough. We can confidently declare the Trump administration to be the biggest collection of assholes in American history.

I've heard back from the City of Vancouver. They confirmed that they have approximately 265 staff "currently in the field" working the byelection. That's a 79% dropoff from the 2017 byelection. Odd they didn't mention that in their original explanation to media as to why lines were so long.

I'm excited to share the trailer for Wildfire, a 5-part doc series I had the pleasure of working on as a story editor. I learned so much from director @kevineastwood.bsky.social and the whole team. It's going to be a great show. Go watch it on @knowledge.ca starting April 29th!

I finally get to share a sneak peak of what I’ve been working on the past 2 years: the trailer for WILDFIRE🔥, our new doc series all about the remarkable people working on the frontlines of today’s modern mega fires, premieres April 29th. Hope you can check it out!

Musk states "the fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy". Charles Darwin, who actually researched this stuff, showed it was empathy, specifically, that enabled humanity to flourish.

Republicans cheering for withdrawing from WHO and the UN Human Rights Council Fucking ghouls

The United States is a rogue state that’s now launched an imperialist trade war against Canada and Mexico. It’s time for countries, especially its former allies, to form an alliance to make the US feel the consequences of its actions and to break their dependence on US tech once and for all.

Reminder: we are being trained not to care about other people. It underlines the attacks on migrants, on DEI, on trans youth, on so-called "wokeness." Sure there are legitimate critiques but this is not about critiques. It's about supercharging capitalism's culture of uncare.

This speech is the worst thing I’ve heard in my lifetime.

The final frontier of "buying Canadian"... actually watching Canadian content.

It’s not a coincidence that the same awful people who like Trump, wanted him to have power and used their influence and platforms to get him elected, also like Pierre Poilievre, want him to have power and will use their influence and platforms to try to get him elected. They’re on the same team.

Reminder, Musk will heavily interfere in Canada‘s next election by supporting Poilievre & the Conservatives. That’s almost all you need to know about their secret plans. Vote strategically - against Poilievre. #Canada #ABC

The best account I’ve read of the return of Donald Trump and what is happening in the US -- written as if it was happening overseas in a foreign country: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

Love this. I can’t wait to cross this bridge.

OMG, I love everything about this. And it’s in my neighbourhood! I’m out of town but am making a visit to the East Van Vodville Cinema the minute I am back! 📽️

We’ve had viable solutions for mobility both within & between cities for a long time, like high-speed rail, prioritized public transit and networks of protected bike-lanes. We need leadership. And we need to stop letting “shiny new tech” distract us from implementing them. Image via UrbanThoughts11

If you’re interested in #documentary, either as a moviegoer or filmmaker, I will be moderating a panel next Saturday, Nov 30 as part of the DGC’s BC Directors Spotlight with a stellar lineup of filmmakers. Come check it out! Tickets & info: dgcbcspotlight.eventive.org/welcome

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence. More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop. Now.

Edmonton's Darrin Hagen made a documentary about Delwyn Vriend's historic lawsuit. Vriend challenged Alberta's human rights legislation for failing to protect 2SLGTBQ+ people from discrimination. And he won! It's a beautiful film & if you get the chance to watch it, do! www.pridevsprejudice.com

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens. Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”

Hello Bluesky. I’m gonna take a moment to just read the room and observe, but I’m now here. (on Bluesky that is - not the beautifully damp coastal scene below. That’s just where I’m usually imagining being.)
