The FBI raid on Fulton County’s election offices should concern each and every person in this country. This is not business as usual and we cannot pretend it is.

Why "Heated Rivalry" Isn't Nominated For Golden Globes 2026 The success of Heated Rivalry isn't measured in awards validation so much as it is in social media timelines and group chats.

If you’re wondering why #HeatedRivalry didn’t get any Golden Globe nominations, it turns out the Golden Globes really just honour golden Americans www.teenvogue.com/story/why-he...

This is bonkers. It’s hard to imagine the context for a government to be too busy to deal with a well-organized and efficient structure for connecting with community in order to make better decisions than you would otherwise make because you’re too busy to deal with community in less efficient ways.

It’s Day 2 of Eastside Culture Crawl in #vancouver, starting tonight at 5pm.

Here are 11 artists you can visit at 1000 Parker Street studios - including me.

These are friends and neighbours in my building.

It was always 10 pm. A unanimous vote of council could extend past 10 pm.

Vancouver’s climate leadership exists because people across the political spectrum fought for it, putting planet before partisanship. Let’s do that again. 🌿

Request to speak at a Council meeting Request to speak at a Council meeting

If you’re able, please speak up today.

📬 Write to council — especially Councillors Dominato and Meiszner, who seem less tied to the mayor’s anti-climate agenda.

🎤 You can also sign up to speak directly to Council until 5 pm today. vancouver.ca/your-governm...

Will speaking out help? Hard to say — this council has made it harder for residents to participate in decisions, and it’s easy to feel cynical about how much they’re listening. But staying silent definitely won’t help. 📢

Now Mayor Sim says cuts are about “austerity”…but is proposing major police budget increases after 3 straight years of steep property tax hikes. 🤔💸🚓

And guess what?
Climate action in Vancouver has NEVER been partisan. 🏛️🫱🏼‍🫲🏽
NPA, COPE, Vision, OneCity, Greens, independents — all helped build this legacy.

Local governments control over 50% of emissions sources in Canada. What Vancouver does matters — here and worldwide. When federal governments stalled climate action (remember the Harper era?), cities like Vancouver kept pushing forward — helping build momentum toward the Paris Agreement. 🔥➡️✍️🇫🇷

🌍✨ Vancouver’s Climate Work Is On the Chopping Block
Mayor Ken Sim + ABC councillors plan to cut major climate action programs. For 35 years, Vancouver has been a global leader in local climate action — starting with the 1990 Clouds of Change report. 🌱

That’s so awesome! I was sorry I couldn’t join you all at the event. Can’t wait to get the book!

BREAKING: President Trump issued a memo calling for government-wide "terrorism investigations" into political opponents.
