I want everyone who has spent years in therapy wondering what is wrong with them, wondering why they had so many bad relationships, why they felt so much dread, to know that it was in part because you were living in a world run by evil, evil people and you could tell that somewhere deep down

I’m sure JK Rowling will be offering a clear and immediate explanation for why her team wanted Jeffrey Epstein to be present at the launch of her broadway musical, a full ten years after he was convicted. I imagine she’s outraged about this revelation, doubtless very damaging to a children’s author.
JK Rowling's team invited Jeffery Epstein to the deathly hallows play and to a Harry potter dinner.

More support for the Canadian arts, please. When I say "support", I mean "money". If we can afford to build useless pipelines, UBI for artists should be workable.
Congratulations again to the team behind Heated Rivalry. Your success is a powerful reminder of why it matters to invest in Canadian content and stories.

Can confirm. Nothing has changed on the ground. ICE still attacking people, kidnapping, all that stuff—and the city is still out protecting and helping neighbors
Absolutely surreal to continue to hear about drawdowns and lowered temperatures and things calming down in Minneapolis when, as far as I can tell, literally nothing has changed on the ground
