Ex-twitterati, happy to be 🇨🇦. Arts, food, pet videos and non-stupid politics (does that exist?) are my go-to. And snark. With whisky.

Canadians not voting is as damaging to our democracy as is promoting & voting for the worst of your grade 10 high school math class - the ones who sat at the back shooting spitballs, mocking everyone and making a*holes of themselves.
