Working on another art heist video for the CBC, which has been turning up very little. But a personal connection was able to share a finding aid that included this little piece.

Truly cannot express the joy I feel at reading that.

Today marks 25 years since North America's first legal gay marriage! On this day, Reverend Brent Hawkes of the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto got around the legal definition of marriage to officially marry two gay couples.

I wrote about the story on my website.

Eyy if y'all could help me with my latest video, I'll give you a piece of candy and a kitten! I think I am in YouTubes bad books for criticizing what's happening in American museums and archives under Trump. Please give this a watch and subscribe if you haven't already!

On my first full day in Hong Kong, I found myself at the Lei Cheng Uk Han Tomb.
The tomb itself is quite small, constructed in an approximate "T" shape sometime during the Han Dynasty. Objects found include some pots and a small clay house with figures inside, but no human remains were found!

Time Magazine quoting a @thebeaverton.com article about the US shooting a "patriot missile" at Parliament Hill like it's something Pete Hoekstra actually said might be my favourite moment of the week. Congrats, @ianmmacintyre.bsky.social, you very serious reporter! www.cbc.ca/news/world/b...

In a recent article about the United States' strained relationships with other countries, Time Magazine included a made-up quote from Canadian satire site The Beaverton — seemingly as fact.

I know I’ve been posting a lot about this, but it’s telling of how this government looks at society that at the very moment Mark Carney can’t stop talking about nation-building projects, he’s throwing the biggest nationwide service-delivery network on the scrap heap because it doesn’t make money.
