Spent 6 1/2 hours watching baseball yesterday and my dreams were riddled with a cycle of never ending pop ups and ground outs. #bluejays

I saw Trey Yesavage pitch a few months ago for the Vancouver Canadians (a high A team). Now he’s pitching in the World Series. What a baseball story. #bluejays

On Spec has long deserved recognition for best semiprozine at the Hugo Awards, but has never even made the ballot because it's Canadian and most Hugo voters are U.S.-based.

2026 will be your final opportunity to nominate an institution that has been an incubator for so much talent.

With our new issue, we are making the sad announcement that this will be the final year for On Spec. See www.onspec.ca for details.

What does your novel smell like?

Mine is the sweet fried scent of a glazed donut. It just feels right.

Open to donut sponsorship if anyone is interested.

Breaking!

City of Burnaby just became first city in Canada to join arms embargo movement against Israel AND the first Apartheid-Free City, breaking ties with Israeli apartheid and settler colonialism.

We've been organizing for months towards this precedent in colonial Canada.

This is how.

Greta Thunberg spits fire and gives you the only media training you may ever need.
Reporter: How did the Israelis treat you, we saw them giving sandwiches? Greta Thunberg: They probably have posted lots of PR stunts, they did an illegal act by kidnapping us in international waters but that’s not the real story here. The real story is the genocide in Gaza and systematic starvation. Reporter: Are you worried about the others? Greta: Yes…I’m calling for everyone who can to mobilize to demand their immediate release and, of course, to demand not only humanitarian aid being let into Gaza but also a ceasefire and most importantly an end to the occupation, an end to the systemic oppression and violence that Palestinians are facing on an everyday basis. Reporter: “Why do you think so many countries and governments around the world are just ignoring what’s happening in Gaza?” Greta Thunberg: “Because of racism.”

Off the Map, an anthology of Vancouver writers with lived experience of mental health issues, is out on shelves, and if you’re in #yvr, today would be a great day to stop by @crossandcrowsbooks.bsky.social to get it!
(You should probably also get Martyr! while there. It’s very good.)

“…[the anthology] reminds the reader: that, buried under the weight of the grey, is hunger and light in each of us…you will find a satisfying and eye-opening foray into others’ truths that will nurture your humanity.”
