A thread worth reading on the Ian Hanomansing/CBC debacle. Career over country seems to be the issue here.⬇️

THIS is something I really wish able-bodied people understood. It's pretty much ME/CFS in a nutshell. I might be able to push through fatigue & other symptoms to do a task, but I'll almost certainly crash for days, weeks, or even permanently change my symptom baseline. There's always a cost.

CBC is largely publicly funded by tax dollars. The public is saying we don't want this show. So cancel it. You'd think CBC would at least try not to piss off it's supporters and play right into the hands of the conservatives who want to defund it.

I don't believe in Hell, but if I did I would die happy knowing there was a special seating section for anyone currently railing against "the sin of empathy," and every one of those seats is made with hot rusty barbs

So it's bad enough having to make most of my food from scratch (because MCAS) and not having enough energy to do it (because ME/CFS) without finding a SPIDER in my chicken soup. No, I did not want the extra protein.🕷️ shudder

There is precisely one word that needs to be said on this topic: NO. Airing a discussion that considers both sides is irresponsible. You're just stirring up controversy for ratings, and in doing so giving radical right-wingers a voice and a foothold. Stop amplifying Trump's fascist threats.

It's a slur for Inuit people in northern Canada, Alaska and Greenland, largely considered offensive in northern parts of the world. The word has been used a few times recently in popular music, but it isn't sitting well with an Inuk who says words matter.

Wayne Gretzky, who spent the holidays with Trump and has been floated as a future governor by the president, as honourary captain for Team Canada is certainly a choice. #FourNations #FourNationsCup

For once I'm grateful for the extra padding on my ass. Went out to ask the neighbours to stop blasting music while my son is writing an online exam for school and fell on the 4" thick ice that's everywhere. Lucky I didn't break anything but gonna have a big bruise. Fun times in chronic pain land.😖

So excited about this!! L.M. Montgomery's writing had a profound effect on me as a young girl. Being a red-haired misfit dreamer, a chatterbox, a romantic, and a writer who loved nature myself, Anne was indeed a kindred spirit to me. I love that Megan will be acting and doing some directing in it.❤️

The New York Times analyzed the electoral impact of annexing Canada instead of asking why the president is talking like a dictator. www.readtpa.com/p/stop-analy...

sigh Looks like I have a ton of work to do this week. I was literally just discussing the possibility of something like this happening with someone a few days ago. They don't want us to actually own anything anymore, but if I want to "rent" books I'll do that at the library for free.

This person is a transphobe. I unfollowed him on Twitter a couple years ago after confronting him about his views. Seems he's made his way here and is seeking like-minded bigots. Don't let the whimsical nature of his account fool you. Please block so he doesn't gain popularity again.

“Today you look very green even for a frog,” said Toad. “Get into my bed and rest.” Toad made Frog a cup of hot tea. Frog drank the tea, and then he said, “Tell me a story while I am resting.”

Editorial note: fascism is not insanity, and the language of mental illness should not be used to describe the hearts and minds of evil men.

A bit of beauty in the chaos. Grant yourself a moment to breathe and soak in this stunning music and narration. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.
