At Davos, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney set fire to liberal platitudes.
His actual politics, however, do quite the opposite.

This is an excellent analogy, because my recollection from grade school is that the pen on the right looks fun and exciting, and then you play with it for a few minutes and realize it's not actually useful for anything and in fact makes some tasks more cumbersome, and never think about it again.
yeah, just out of interest, how many people choose the pen on the right for real work or art? See a lot of them in professional workplaces, do you?

It frustrates me that in between the Soundies of the 40s and the Rock & Roll films of the mid-late 50s, there’s a massive gap in non-crossover Black artists on film, and that gap neatly coincides with the birth of rock & roll. Like it’s crazy to me that there’s no film of Wynonie Harris performing!
