Thank you to the lovely Claire for inviting me onto her show to talk about someone I really really hate!
NEW EPISODE: Anabel Maler @amaler.bsky.social tells me about Alexander Graham Bell! It turns out the phone guy was a huge eugenicist who married his student, which reminds us once again that inventors are all untrustworthy unless proven otherwise.

My two-year-old daughter woke up in the middle of the night and didn’t know where I was, so she started crying “Where’s my beautiful mama??!” 🥲🥲

It feels good to be able to cast my vote in a federal election in my home country again. It feels especially good to exercise my rights as a Canadian citizen on a day when the White House has reiterated its desire to annex my country. Elbows up 🇨🇦

I’m not crying, you’re crying ❤️🇨🇦
Dear Canada, I felt compelled to make something. To stick up for, and to honour. To show our strength, beauty, genius, empathy, light & heart. It's made with deep gratitude for the people and places of this beautiful land. Vive le Canada 🇨🇦❤️✌️💪

Bought a copy of @amaler.bsky.social 's book, Seeing Voices, and it's mind-blowing. So well written, describes the history & innovations of sign-language music, and sheds new light on music theory, voice theory, language embodiment, and intersections of art forms. 🎶🧏🏻‍♀️✨ global.oup.com/academic/pro...
