If city council is so interested in creating safety for people with disabilities, clear the sidewalks in the winter, fix the bus system, fix Transit Plus, and help create more accessible and affordable housing. That’s what will actually keep us safe. Not some shitty by-law that bans protests.

I went to a rally this morning at city hall to protect our right to protest. City hall is 900 metres from my home. I had to take a taxi there because our sidewalks are impassable in winter in our so called “human rights city.” I tried to roll home but got stuck several times and had to ask for help.

"Why are ADHD and Autism suddenly such a big fucking deal"
I dunno, how much louder and brighter and constant did everything get in the last 50 years

Some excellent logo-making advice
So, you have a logo.
I want you to run it through these tests, to see if it's an effective logo, or just a nice illustration.
Because I see so many people who reveal logos for their new, exciting thing ... and it's not fit for purpose.
And you'll learn that hard way if you don't check.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

All I can say is personally I think it is no coincidence that my work seems to have slowed down as this has ramped up.
On top of the loss of income, there's also the price of living with grief that other creators don't have to, because they're not 'troublesome' to society.
