Here’s a pic of Christopher Plummer ripping up the Na*i flag in the Sound of Music. I thought we all might need to see this for therapeutic purposes.

News changes so fast these days. Was gonna say that Ford decided to tear up the Starlink contract in response to sweeping US tariffs on Canada because this is true, but now the tariffs are on 30 day hold so who the fuck knows.

Settlers said that Indigenous people would harm their kids.

White people said that Black people would harm their kids.

Straight people said that queer people would harm their kids.

Cis people are saying trans people want to harm their kids.

This rhetoric is not true and never has been.

Seeking recommendations for #lists of artists I should follow, and reputable Canadian politics and social justice sources.

Plenty of relevant US content here, but I need to keep it in balance with my own country.

Also very useful for current media analysis though I’m sure there are other similar lists for consideration.
Layers of information in an archival document:

- What is said
- What is not said
- What is alluded to
- What is omitted intentionally
(and unintentionally)
- What is misleading
- What is ambiguous
- What is highlighted
- What is downplayed
- What is weaponized
- What is unintelligible today

"Things might be tough but it's great for artists! They'll create more!" You might not believe me but going through a lifetime's worth of stress Every Single Week for years and years- is actually not the optimal set of circumstances that inspires artists to create

Just had a long discussion with a lawyer re: structure of Canada’s legal system, our human rights, and how to protect them.

It’s a lot of info, but I’ll bring the simplified version here as soon as I can distill it and have it fact checked for accuracy.
