If there is one thing that might unite us all as Canadians, it is that we are not, and have never been, them. Siblings are two separate people and one should not seek to devour the other one, no matter how much power or money he holds. It’s our collective lives and we’re not interested. 🍁🇨🇦

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

NEW: Vera Rubin was a pioneering female astronomer. The federal webpage for an observatory named for her now excludes mention of efforts to diversify science.

“I’m sure Vera would be absolutely furious,” said a co-author of a biography of Rubin.

"Sorry, your game sold millions of copies but our projections said it should have sold at least fifteen trillion for shareholders to be satisfied, so we're going to have to fire all of you. Now watch the news unquestioningly report that your game was a commercial failure. Probably because of woke."

ANYWAY, sorry, here's a bird. Pause and regard the bird. The bird is happy, for the bird has found a peanut. May we all find the small joy of finding a tasty snack today.
