It is Wednesday. I have booked my lecturers, have provided more documents for a PhD application, half finished half of an online course, and I'm not afraid of my PM. This deserves another coffee and a cookie.

I withdrew my PhD applications to 2 US schools based on the fact that they required me to come for weekend visits to the campus ... which is a shame, because these schools have amazing PhD programmes, specifically for police education.

Kenyan #journalist Alvin Kaunda was reporting live from Nairobi when a curious baby #elephant, Kindani, decided to join the broadcast. The playful elephant stuck her trunk in Alvin's mouth, making for a hilarious moment! A joyful reminder of wildlife's charm and the work of the Sheldrick Trust!

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

Conversation with my partner as he rubs Tiger Balm into my 50km’d leg muscles: Me: Please pretend that my legs are baby birds. Him: Sure. *vigorously massages Tiger Balm into my R leg* Me: The baby birds in this scenario, are for the record, alive.

Co-Teaching an Elder Abuse course over the past 8 days. So many toenail photos... A good indicator of neglect is how an older person's feet are being taken care of, so if you have folks in long term care or people aging at home with PSW's or Home Care Aids... CHECK THEIR TOES!

So, from what I can tell, @booker.senate.gov would make an absolutely excellent #ultrarunner. Sir, I'd love to crew you should you decide to take on a 100 mile race.

You know you're Canadian when you've been kicked out of at least one bar for standing on the chair and leading the crowd in a great anthem about stealing yankee gold. With deep apologies to that nice little club in Jasper. Or was it Halifax? Singing with #elbowsup www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0Cv...

It’s amazing how the biggest act of resistance right now is just being kind, thoughtful and hopeful. Wild how it riles some people up.

I’m going down the dark hole that is self-harm cults, and it’s dark. I’ve spent the past 10 years researching and writing about how evil humans can be, and it’s getting tiresome. I had to get a new tattoo to feel better (… line is from The Book Thief)

Maybe what the world needs now is a hug from Zack Morris. I feel like Jessi Spano on speed, and I doubt I’m the only one.

Finally catching up with my Baba today. Nothing breaks my heart like hearing her cry over how Zelenskyy was treated by trump + vance. "They're bullies. Imagine being a bully, and still being that stupid?"

What.... what are all the other hate/bias/extremism academics doing these days aside from reading the news and then sobbing and spending the day adding items to our online LCBO cart?
