Every day I have to hear about some asshole

BREAKING: Ontario has lost the 2025 provincial election

Doug's going to be back at Queen's Park on Monday, right? Asking for a friend who's about to make 1000 copies of something and buy a staple gun. #OnPoli #CancelStarlink

Don't buy shit, write your book

BREAKING: Ontario

Quit buying shit, write poems, live más

“How can you talk about books at a time like this?” “Because if I don’t talk about books, I’m gonna talk about murder and I’d rather rather go on book tour than go to prison. Also, fascists hate books, especially those written by people like me. So books, motherfucker. ALL THE BOOKS.”

It is profoundly sad to watch doctors plead with idiots to take vaccines so as to prevent the reemergence of diseases all but eradicated decades ago.

The wealthy commit fraud WAY MORE than the rest of us do. They also serve WAY LESS time in prison.

UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT: tomorrow, February 28th, is the Economic Blackout. I ain’t buying shit. Plan ahead, but if you must buy essentials, use cash and support local businesses only. No corporate chains!

Hear me out: a scholastic book fair but for adults

Folks in Ontario get out to vote. Remember that Doug Ford made a big hoopla about cancelling a $100 million deal with Elon Musk. It was back on the table within hours. No wonder Elon is taunting us. Get out and vote.

This is the last chance to dump Doug Ford for four years. Make sure this ends NOW. Get everyone you know out to vote. Take time to explain the damage he has done.

AGEISM

Elon Musk (who gives Nazi salutes at inaugurations for presidents he owns) doesn't believe Canada is a real country and is using Starlink to extort minerals from Ukraine, which means #DougFord (aka Captain Canada) will #CancelStarlink, the $100M deal he made with Elon, to protect Ontarians, right?

Nothing to see here. Just casually dropping a comprehensive list of banned books docs.house.gov/meetings/GO/...

Been thinking about this and her a lot recently.

‘A true writer would embrace A.I.’ Yeah, fuck no.

Libraries and librarians not only spark a love of learning; they are crucial to reversing low reading assessment scores across the country. www.americanprogress.org/article/inve...

Please. No more speeches in the Senate about “freedom” until one Republican has the guts to stand up to Trump’s lies about Ukraine & Putin. Ukraine did not start this horrific war. Russia did. Zelensky isn't a dictator. Putin is. The US must not enter into an alliance with Putin.

Four more years of Ford will not get you a doctor or new hospitals, it will get you Trump politics and privatized healthcare in Ontario. Why do Ontarians get conned by a fool with the intellect of a grade 4 student?

More of this.

Let me remind you that our government is supposed to be of, by, and for the people. Musk is supposed to be working for you and me and every other American. He’s not. He should be fired. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/fire-the-muskrat-now

Make Doug Ford a label salesman again. #OnPoli #FireFord

Clubs and bars are out. Let's open a late night Bookstore where you can silently mingle, drink tea, and read into all hours of the night.

Since Jan 6 our world has turned upside down. Canada is under threat like never before. There are still 8 months left in this parliament. We can put aside our fights and come together for Canada. These are my thoughts on how normal politics is no more. charlieangus.substack.com/p/no-return-...

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general. If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

"I'm a big Republican" "Trump is a genius businessman" "My support is unwavering" "I'm 100% happy President Trump won" - Doug Ford, Premier of Ontario. The most destructive, dangerous, and corrupt premier we have ever had. Kick his useless ass to the curb.

I don’t understand how there’s any debate about whether to characterize them as Nazis when they’re out here sieg heiling. It’s an absolute failure of messaging not to name and condemn this behavior, and build a narrative around it.

Elon Musk is a bandit. And Doug Ford just signed $100 million deal with him. Meanwhile he and Trump are trying to crush the people of Ukraine. Doug Ford says it's the "best bang for the buck." No Doug, this is what vichy collaborators do. Slava Ukraini
