a note about rachel zegler
Rachel Zegler is my age. She’s 23, turning 24 in a couple of months. Her career so far is genuinely incredible: was picked out of thousands…

theatre was full for princess mononoke in IMAX :) nice to see that amongst all the AI use

there’s a current trend to use AI to generate “studio ghibli” inspired memes — lacks total respect for animation as an art form and also serves as an insult to studio ghibli films that are often statements against humans and their treatment of the natural world

sooo interesting to see the discourse about j-hope’s tour in north america (aka: no canada, 2 mexican show dates) and the reactions of fans towards each other… geopolitics of concert tours, anyone? 🤓

A must read. I have my story about the Allard School of Law at UBC, but it pales in comparison to the experiences of racialized colleagues and friends who work there, as this Walrus piece lays out. It is a damning indictment of institutional EDI - all smoke no substance. thewalrus.ca/an-elite-law...
