On the off chance that any of you were up at night wondering why I called myself Cerberus, it’s not because I identify with the three-headed dog of the Underworld…OK, sometimes I do, but it’s because when I opened my account I couldn’t think of a name and this bottle of ink was on my desk.
I don’t get the Inkvent calendar every year but this year called for it. Two more weeks!

This case seems to have been horribly mishandled.
We all have seen this at unis— charismatic prof using the undergrad/grad population as a personal dating pool. It’s tacky and gross but it seems to be par for the course. University policies against fraternization with students need to be enforced.

A decade ago, writer Steven Galloway’s cancellation tore CanLit apart. The effects linger to this day
The bestselling novelist faced sexual-assault allegations, costing him his job. Marsha Lederman asks, would this case be handled differently today?

To be honest, I don’t want to read any of these emails. I already want to shower for a week.

This language also shows up in many situations, like the Ottawa occupation of the Convoy a few years ago. People who lived in the affected areas were “latte-sipping elites”, for example, so they could be disregarded. But people who lived downtown are just normal people. The facts didn’t matter.
Author Brene Brown on her intolerance of dehumanization. I can’t agree more with her. We all know who she’s talking about.

Why do so many politicians and commentators start their comments with “Well, look…”. It’s a weird habit.

The words make my heart hurt, especially these days when we seem to be going backwards again. I love this song and the Pit Bull-Dolly version is even better. Don’t let the boss man bring you down, ladies!
Dolly Parton releases “9 to 5” 45 yrs ago today.
“I knew what it was like to be a working woman trying to make a decent living, trying to be taken seriously. .. I wanted a song that sounded playful on the surface but spoke to that frustration .. A song about women .. saying, ‘We deserve better.’”

The far right radicalization of young men is a serious issue. Fanning male rage was a big part of the MAGA movement and is part of the game plan on the Polievre Conservatives.
