Are monopolies destroying democracy? New paper says yes. Using idiosyncratic firm-level shocks to estimate a causal effect, the increase in markups can explain about a quarter of the global democracy decline. For the US, it's 42%.

Kiki caught a chipmunk and brought it to me like a baby kitten and it ran and hide from the cats in the house. Thankfully the cats helped me corner it and I got it into a jar. Happily released it outside.

I had fun this morning as the KWAG artist-gardener in residence. Today, I added Yarrow, four types of Aster, Butterfly Weed (not butterfly bush), lavender, nasturtiums, and more rosemary and sage. A little pollinator, bunny, and squirrel said hello to me.

One of the finest and bravest speeches you will see to GOP legislators. I could be wrong but I think this was in Texas. Today’s GOP as an entire party is as disgusting and vile of an organization that has ever existed in the US. That includes the NRA and KKK.

Canada’s new cabinet met for the first time this morning.
One of our first orders of business: a tax cut for the middle class. Starting July 1, hard-working Canadians will keep more of their paycheques.

It's hard to put into words how much invisible labour goes in an art career.
Tally
4 hours packaging
6-8 hours of meeting about this project (4 times as much if you include collaborators)
4 hours of conceptualizing

You are worried.
About healthcare. Education. About how you'll pay your bills.
But instead of taking action on any of your worries, Danielle Smith and the UCP are fixated on distracting and dividing us.
You deserve better.
And better is possible.

Dr. Maya Angelou is one of my heroes. ♡
Revisiting lots of the ancestors’ early work, lately. It so happens, Dr. Maya Angelou’s various readings of her work “The Mask” constitute my favorite piece of art of all time—written, painted or otherwise. Full piece is usually 7-8 mins; here’s the last 3 mins of one such performance. It is heavy.🖤

This complete piece of trash spreads lies. I know so many amazing people with autism with jobs. They are professors, artists, creatives, actors, social workers, and parents (and so much more). This guy is horrible.
1. As part of his dangerous anti-vaxx crusade, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert Kennedy Jr. spread horrific lies about autistic people by saying they “will never pay taxes. They’ll never hold a job, they’ll never play baseball. They’ll never write a poem. They’ll never go out on a date”

BREAKING: Peter Guthrie has been expelled from the UCP Caucus for speaking out about government corruption.
That makes two!
The cracks are getting bigger and Danielle Smith is frantically scrambling.
Keep the pressure on, friends.
Demand your UCP MLA stand up too.
A better Alberta is possible.

Alberta renters are struggling, left with very few tenant protections.
This is a government that’s willing to give more money to their own MLAs to cover skyrocketing rents, but not to Albertans struggling with the cost of living.
Make it make sense!
Let’s get loud, Alberta.
