Twitter has been ingrained in our Social Media spaces. I don’t think you’ll see a mass exodus. Some to be sure, as I find myself among them, but we’re effectively installing Musk as a gatekeeper in our international if not global discourse on politics and culture.

A fight broke out after a high school rugby game when one of our players sucker punched an opponent in the hand shake line. The school was banned from the league for 5 years.

It’s not derangement. It’s a strategy to give permission for violence against all the right’s political enemies, not just LGBTQ folks. It’s like calling abortion providers “baby killers.” Do it enough times and someone will act on it.

The sheer, unadulterated derangement of the "groomer" discourse is hard to overstate.

My favourite April Fools joke is when a company makes a joke that gets the legit response of “this is actually a good idea, you should do this” and they immediately respond with “No, lol.”

If your government has told you that "infection with COVID is inevitable"...what they're actually saying is that they just don't want to spend the money to give you the resources or information, to protect you.

How can a woman who held the title of Premier of BC for 6 years not know what good politics looks like? Perhaps this is why the NDP and Greens were able to steal their lunch in 2017.

Here's what happened yesterday: one leader without a hope of getting re-elected agreed with another leader without a hope of getting re-elected, that they should get together and make sure there's no election so they can both keep their jobs. #LiberalNDPdeal

There's a growing movement in B.C. to adopt what's known as a living wage, which considers the rising costs of essentials like housing, transportation and child care in the region. @AlisonNorthcott found, at least one Vancouver business is embracing this approach.

Your risk of getting “seriously ill” is extraordinarily small. Setting aside the risk of getting a long term disability, which, who knows
ALT Screenshot of a New York Times article that says “if you’re otherwise healthy and have received your vaccine and booster shots, your risk of getting seriously ill with Covid is extraordinarily small. It’s about in line with other risks people take every day, such as driving in a car. … There’s also always the risk that someone may develop long-Covid, even if they are vaccinated, though much about the condition remains unknown.”

How petty and pathetic does the “Freedom Convoy” look right now? These losers are mad because they have to get a shot or wear masks while Ukrainians are making molotov cocktails and Googling how to use an AK to defend their country. Take your pathetic whining and go home.
