Sending love and solidarity to anyone making anything during these unstable, frightening and vexing times. Be it art, literature, journalism, cakes, cabinetry, robots, gardens, houses, portraits, sweaters, tapestries, models, games, relationships, or babies. it is good to bring good into the world!

The only good thing about the Houston budget is that it has taken my mind off the horrors going on in the US for the past few days. But I’m beginning to see it as a continuation of said horrors.

More abhorrent behaviour from the Nova Scotia government.

King has collaborated with Sendak illustrations and a truly Grimm story, writing a very excellent version of Hansel & Gretel. For any young reader who begs for a bit of a scare, this will thrill. It’s on the edge of gory, & coupled with Sendak’s work, makes for an excellent read.

Well, Nova Scotia, looks like lean times for anything that even slightly resembles culture, social assistance, or environmental management. Shame on you, Conservatives. Especially Tim Houston. Shame.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Those of us who grew up with grandparents tattooed with numbers from wrist to elbow crook should know precisely what happens when people allow a murderous regime to shame and blame some "other" in order to seize and hold power.

Fire, arrest and try them all. We must keep our sites set on the architect of the hate fueled violence.
