Proud queer, based in Vancouver, BC (unceded Coast Salish territory). My politics are best described as eco-left. I will definitely also be posting about pop culture and urbanism, and will certainly be engaging in general nihilism. They/them, please.

I will attempt to flesh out why the CBC's broadcast of Cross Country Checkup was so toxic today, since there are some people still expressing confusion or dismay at the criticisms, including my own, leveled at it. 1/? 🧵 #Canada #CBC

Given that America is abdicating its role as world leader in so many things lately (science, technology, and so on), I would really like Canadian politicians (at all levels of government) to promise to have this country step up to take its place.

Donald Trump says Canada has no right to exist. I take the threat seriously. With our sovereignty on the table I support a national discussion on next steps. But CBC thinks it would be fun to have an American DJ co-host whether we should exist as a nation. Fuck that @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

Could we kill two birds with one stone here and very explicitly attach all this Nazi behaviour to the Republican Party? Like stop calling them Nazis and just say that's some Republican shit right there.

Ah, of course, the government has to do this to prevent these safer-supply opioids from winding up on the street and saving the lives of random users instead of the lives of the people they're prescribed to.

Thank you to the Vancouver and District Labour Council for your support! With our Mayor having cut wages for janitors and security guards, it couldn't be clearer that we need progressive fighters at City Hall who will call him out and fight back.

Steven Spielberg has spent his entire career warning us about the dangers of dinosaurs and Nazis and I personally think we should have brought back the dinosaurs instead

Anyone else just get, like, walloped with allergy season in the last few days? I usually go on my antihistamines earlier than this but the weather was so wintery until a few days ago I decided to hold off and I'm greatly regretting that.

It's near the end of its run in Vancouver, but if you ever get the chance to see Paying For It, I absolutely loved it! A frank and open perspective on sex work in Canada, with a huge dose of 90s Toronto nostalgia.
