Likes words + pictures. Still here (in academia, thinking about contemporary lit, visual culture, & politics of aesthetics). Coined the phrase "It's Adam & Eve, not Adam & Jeeves" as a [bad] argument against labour exploitation. Salting the vibes.

If Mayor Chow cannot or will not make this a major issue in the mayor's race in the fall, she should step aside now, announce she's not running for reelection.

Enough of the shoulder shrugging, what are you gonna dos, they got all the power, let's see what we can get in return.

I was just listening to CBC Radio's Metro Morning where they were discussing something like 50% increase in young adults -- particularly women -- being diagnosed with ADHD since the pandemic. I realize we have to be careful about making the link and yet...

For the same $6 trillion cost, you could crush child poverty with a child allowance and free childcare, fix unemployment insurance, do paid family, sick & medical leave, massively boost ACA subsidies, and eliminate child uninsurance with Medicare for Kids.

In Toronto, snow is melting. Long stretches of the city smell like puddle water and dog shit. Spring is approaching.

"I don't want to have to explain to my kids what gay people are" is ridiculous. You have to explain everything to them! They've never seen anything before! What else are you doing this about? You don't like broccoli so you just refuse to ever let your child know about what broccoli is? Okay man

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Haha, been watching this cartoon with our son and it’s a perfect illustration of every major figure in the current American government, minus the good intentions of course.

It really is! I wish they (Dark Horse) would reprint the Art of Over the Garden Wall book. I’ve been trying to get my hands on it for years (without paying $1000 for it).

Anyway, lots of reasons to criticize Carney but some people on here have really got a hard-on for him.
