“Carol Off digs deep into six words whose meanings have been distorted and weaponized in recent years—including democracy, freedom and truth—and asks whether we can reclaim their value.” Sounds like an excellent and really important book. Would love to chat about

If you perform yard cleanup this (gorgeous) weekend, you're committing pollinator-cide. It's not time yet. The bugs and bees are still sleeping. Leave your leaves and delay yard cleanup until it warms up consistently. Don't kill the bees.

Five alarm fire for democracy in Canada. Not just Alberta. The whole country. Not hyperbole. When we take away effective representation, we no longer have a real claim to being a liberal democracy. If Alberta gets away with this, other provinces will follow.

It was always ridiculous to have anti-MAID zealots on the Coroner’s Review Committee who refuse to accept Track II MAID (intolerable suffering though death not imminent) as the settled law of the land. It just gave them a privileged platform to campaign for abolition.
