If you're planning on shopping during black Friday or cyber Monday, why not consider supporting artists, writers, creators? Buy a book, purchase an indie video game, commission an art piece, gift someone a Patreon. Your support means everything.

At least 40 maybe 50 folks crammed in an elbow of an Elgin Street tavern between the women's squash team and trivia. I can barely here a word of the poetry but I hope the owners recognize we will come out and pour our money out in pints

We are huge fans of Vera Hadzic. Get out to this one tonight, treat yourself to a Tuesday pint and a book of poems

Tbh "we all fart" likelier to engender camaraderie across partisan divides
some of my friends are like “my poetry engages with the racism of Canada’s immigration policies over the past 150 years” while i’m like “my poetry is about how weird it is that we all fart”

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."
Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:
