Went to the Palais Royal, and found to my delight that Quebec sculptor Michel Goulet in collaboration with Francois Massut has created love-seat like poems with verses (mostly couplets) by poets stamped into them. Really wonderful poetry by a diverse group of poets. www.lesconfidents.org

So much is beautiful in Paris but it isn't all beautiful. Saturday someone vandalized the wall beside the Shoah memorial honouring the names of "the righteous" -- non-Jews who put their lives at stake to protect and assist Jews during the Occupation. Incomprehensible and disgusting.

For the second week in a row, we’re here on the ground to make sure that all food trucks get through the border crossing to Gaza. It’s intolerable that this is even necessary, but we won’t stop showing up until every last settler backs down.

The Online News Act (which I’ve called ”easily the biggest policy screw up in recent Canadian history“™) led Meta to ban all Canadian news links on Facebook and Instagram @nicktsergas.ca created this website to help you circumvent Meta’s news ban – move fast, break things, etc 💻🔨 sharethenews.ca

Ah, saw the most beautiful rhubarb at the greengrocer's and couldn't resist buying some to make my rhubarb-onion chutney. One pound of rhubarb yielded only this, but it'll do. (I do have a small rhubarb patch but it doesn't look ready to pick yet.)
