From erotic open‐mics to screenings, there’s a movement to reclaim pleasure in Toronto. I spoke w/ the folks behind Natural Born Sinners, filmmaker Kalil Haddad, and @jelenavermilion.bsky.social about art, sex, and censorship for @thegrindto.bsky.social.

👀 A community leader is already stepping up to run for Mayor against Andrea Horwath.

I hear from Hamiltonians of all income brackets that Andrea gave false hope in the election and has been mostly MIA. She has failed to move our city forward.

With all this discourse around sex workers, reminder that they’re ignored when news reports on legislation that would directly affect their income. Check out the latest episode of The North State where I spoke to @mskatesinclaire.bsky.social and @jelenavermilion.bsky.social about Bill S-210.

Is it the only available reading of the word? Absolutely not. It could’ve been feminine in later times and not earlier times, or it could’ve been non-gendered garments for all royals. But it’s certainly a reasonable reading among others.
