I was part of Research Manitoba when the previous govt ‘reorganized’ aka de-organized and de-funded and began to prioritize funding private industry. Lots of good people got caught up in the devastation. Hoping it can be renewed.

I think in this particular case, I would do the strategic vote even if I felt strongly for the green or NDP candidate ONLY because it is PP and it would be so glorious if he lost his seat.

Sorry I meant red! It looked a little pink in my light. The answer is always red or pink! ;)

It’s self-serving for sure but I also think he can do more good as premier of a province than an MP/leader of federal party that won’t be in power.

He should stay right where he is.

I love it. I have nostalgia for their younger days and wish I could visit those days for short amounts of time, but I just love them getting older.

Hey. The fragmentation of the social media landscape has been hard on indie #scicomm 🧪 projects

So if you'd like to follow a podcast that's enthusiastic about #linguistics, could you check out @lingthusiasm.bsky.social?

And if you think your followers might like to, could you give this a repost?

I was thinking Michigan! I could stay in Ontario and drive across, but nah, that’s not a good idea either. I didn’t go to Florida for political reasons, I should probably stay away from Michigan too. It’s so sad, I love NWAV. Doing CVC this year instead but it’s really not the same.

Honestly, there are enough other incentives to move right now, aren’t there?
