People with disabilities: “hire and pay disabled artists!” (Correct) Also PwD: “haha look it’s an action figure/Ghibli/Renaissance painting of me I got the AI to make lmao” Real disappointed in a lot of people.

I thought my hotel had a hot tub. I saw it next to the pool so I went and got my trunks and came back. It was a big blue towel someone had left on the floor.

“I know what I’ll do today: I’ll go to the airport to fart and only fart. As that is my hobby.” - everyone at my gate.

The Toronto Sun, unsurprisingly, sits ever on the wrong side of history by continuing to employ Joe Warmington, Nazi Sympathizer. Elon Musk being that Nazi.

Fuck fascism.

If you think TikTok is the only way you can disseminate information and communicate, well done. The whole point was to make to think that was ever true.

I figured out why I don’t like the Porter raccoon mascot. Raccoons are working class, scruffy dudes who get by and work hard for their families. The Porter raccoon, in his little posh suit, has always seemed smug and haughty. That’s because he is a class traitor.

My son does this noise of frustration that sounds very similar to Eddie Vedder’s “WAAAAAHHH” at the start of the Rearviewmirror mix of Even Flow and instead of tending to him I just start singing the song: music.apple.com/ca/album/eve...

I’ve lived in Toronto for ~8 years now but if I ever leave I’ll just say it was a pilot project.

You know Bluesky is good because ska legends @eve6.bsky.social are here.

I can’t eat much before doing a show so my dinner tonight will be one (1) Fisherman’s Friend.

Literacy rates among children dropping in Canada correlate directly with the discontinuing of Alpha-Bits cereal.

It’s nice to see people realizing that it’s been class war this whole time.

Hermit crab wants a new shell but must file papers with permit crab.

I love the window seat on a plane. My favourite part is when I get up to deplane and unfold my cane and sighted people realize what I have taken away from them. Frown more, people in B and C.

normal holiday thoughts

All of us could be a CEO or consultant today. Not all of us could be an electrician. Food for thought, I guess.

When the taco place has dollar tacos and you have seven dollars : )

Repost a GIF describing your exit from Twitter.

“You can’t joke about anything these days.” Maybe you’re just shitty at telling jokes?

People are over-afraid of bears and under-afraid of moose.

“Hello I am a baby, I will sleep soundly until you’re in dead stop traffic and then you will regret everything you have ever done to this point.” Another reason to reduce car access to cities.

I wrote a new podcast. Short Sighted is an attempt to explain what vision loss feels like through exploring how it sounds. Episode one is out today with the CBC. open.spotify.com/episode/4HwO...

Canada Post strike or not, my bank will somehow still manage to send me a paper bill I did not ask for.

I have a degenerative eye disease called keratoconus. Because there are no visual identifiers for my condition, people don’t think I’m losing my sight. They think I’m an asshole. For the last year I’ve been writing a podcast about it for the CBC. We launch Nov 19th. www.cbc.ca/listen/cbc-p...

They should make a Moo Deng-shaped toilet stool. Squatty Pottamus.
