I’m quite proud of my shark that I drew so that it could be scanned and animated for teamLab Borderless in Tokyo…

"I haven't followed Canadian politics closely, but when a politician talks of limiting free press, activities at universities & defying the courts, it's the canary in a coal mine for autocracy" - Harvard University Professor when asked his opinion on Pierre Poilievre. #Canada #cdnpoli #elxn45

It’s pretty exhilarating trying to navigate a transit system by yourself, and Japan makes it extremely easy to figure out where you need to go…

I don’t always like to be in the spotlight, but when I do, it’s when I’m driving a go-kart around Tokyo dressed as Snow White #JapanKart

Gavin Newsom, Gov of California: "We're launching an international campaign to welcome and encourage Canadians to visit the Golden State." My advice: Do not travel to the US. Period. Not Red state, not Blue state. Let them see we're serious about protecting Canada from Trump's 50-state Amerika.

Always remember that the jury reached unanimous decisions on all but one of the 14 questions at the inquests into the Hillsborough tragedy. This is a reminder to everyone who still cast aspersions on the Liverpool supporters for their actions that day. #TheTruth #JFT97 #NeverForgotten #YNWA

I expect the next Celebration to be back in North America, and if Lucasfilm are smart, they won’t host it in the U.S. with so few from outside the country wanting to visit, so my money is on Toronto. I would love it to be Vancouver, but I just don’t think it has the infrastructure.

Guess I’m the Naive Ninny, because I am absolutely GOBSMACKED that people who refused to vote for Kamala Harris have the unmitigated gall to scream about how terrible everything is. Sit down and live with your SELF INFLICTED WOUND, you ASSHOLES. Or god forbid, do the work to try and fix things.

Time differences are weird. Before I took off in Vancouver, I was 8 hours behind the UK, and after a 10 hour flight, now I’m 8 ahead 🤯
