Doing research on the four day work week and Friday afternoon seems like a good time to ask: do you agree with the advocates who say you can do 100% of your work in 80% of your current time?

serious question: presumably these people sent their own kids to school, which is *also* subsidized by taxpayers. why do we all understand the value of a publicly funded system for kids 5-18 but not for 0-5?
To all of you reaping the benefits of my hard work to give you $10 a day daycare… I ask you, where is your sense of pride? Why would you be okay with taking my hard earned money to pay for your obligations to YOUR kids. Serious question.

As Orange Shirt Day approaches, a reminder that you can wear a shirt you already own and donate the money you would have spent on a new one directly to an organization like @IRSSurvivor that supports residential school survivors.

Model minorities! Exotic eats! Immigrant invasions! Can we please have better coverage on all things "ethnic"? I'm giving this newsletter thing a try to talk about reporting "diversely" beyond harmful tropes. Hope you'll tag along in some way! @TheTyee thetyee.ca/Tyeenews/2021/10/…
