It's tough sometimes to be the only one in a crowded room wearing a mask. It can definitely be awkward. So I want to publicly thank @AstroKatie for giving her Starfest keynote talk while masked. I felt like sane person and not some hypochondriac kook.

Home from Starfest - any amateur astronomers in the Southern Ontario area should absolutely be aware of this outstanding star party. Dark skies, interesting talks, and hundreds of astronomers who want to hang around with other astronomers. Alcohol may have been consumed.

From Shawn Micallef's book 'Frontier City'

"If you followed #DougFord at the municipal level, there was never a moment to think, "Relax, he'll be fine." It was all there, easy to see." The bullying. The malevolence.

Most telling perhaps is Ford's extraordinary & breathtakingly cruel interaction with the father of an #autistic teen. Doug said an #Etobicoke home for autistic teens “ruined the community”. When the father launched a complaint Doug said he could “go to hell, I don’t even care”.
