We had joy, we had fun,
We had tweets about eaten plums.

Demonizing whole disciplines was destined to end in crime like the University of Waterloo stabbing. In 2017 I wrote of Jordan Peterson “I wouldn’t want to be a department at the end of those more than 500,000 Youtube subscribers and more than 250,000 Twitter followers.” Love to anyone who might be feeling stil more vulnerable just now. https://macleans.ca/opinion/is-jordan-peterson-the-stupid-mans-smart-person/

Happy Pride from Trans March. Thousands and thousands out. Toronto at its best

Twelve years of conservative mayors in Toronto, both of whom ran the gamut from compromised to incompetent to craven to, I’ll say it, creepy, but, yes, dudes in my mentions, a housing crisis is what happens the moment a progressive woman polls anything above 28%. That’s just science.

Continued my favourite Mothers Day tradition of spending the morning reading touching Facebook tributes which all end “….and she never complained” aloud to my kids and then saying “I guess you guys’ll never say that about me, huh?”
And then complaining about it *all day.*

Not gonna give away the rest of the songs on my doing-the-yard-work playlist “Mulch and Schmaltz” but I must admit I am never exactly sad when Neil Diamond’s “Forever in Blue Jeans” comes on.

Oh, CNN, my sweet summer media company, there is nothing complex going on beneath that face. That is not a man looking “chastened,” It’s Trump, he is thinking “Do I look serious? And hot? I absolutely think I’m looking serious and hot.”

Best part of the #15MinuteCity conspiracy is they seem to think that til now cities *weren’t* planned. Like on the 8th day God created subdivisions and said “Let there be a freeway between the houses and a strip mall.”
And what is a Kiss’n Ride if not actual social engineering?
