So Instagram (and Threads) have suspended my account. Maybe because I got over 1,200 likes on a post telling Canadian travel writers not to go to the US?
Guess I didn't meet (Zuckerberg's) community standards. In a way, I suppose that's a compliment.
(Yes of course I'm appealing...)

I would pay money to listen to @linwoodbarclay.bsky.social and @stephenking.bsky.social use metaphors in a debate of how stupid they think Donald Trump is. It would be a masterclass.

Such a great speech. #TeamCanada
If you haven’t watched this yet, you should. Especially if you are American. Our Prime Minister speaks directly to you.
Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

Listening to two Millennials complain about how Gen Zr's in their office are just making up acronyms to make them look like they don't know what they're talking about. They are thinking of speaking to HR about it.

I think there’s a misconception out there that good writing means phrasing things in a way nobody ever has or would—that if a sentence feels familiar in the mind it fails. The opposite is true. Good writing is phrasing things in a way everyone has always wanted to and recognizes in their hearts.
