I must apologize to Jays fans across Canada and around the world.

I was working the “mid-shift” (12-8:30pm PST) at a store open until 11. When I checked the score at 8:20, I saw the Jays up by one in the top of the ninth. I told the closers “I don’t envy you. The game’s gonna end as soon as I leave

A lot of folks who made "free speech" their whole bit have made it exceptionally clear that the only speech they care about keeping "free" is their own and that of those who think exactly like them

I’m less experienced with Laz or this race than Keith Dunn, but: you sweet summer child

Ironically, you’re starting to use “Zionism” the same way Zio’s scream “Antisemitism”

Really, because I think they should wage a war on cars, tho

Turns out some of the “we want small government” people kiiiinda wanted the government to be just one guy.

During this time of economic uncertainty when CEOs only can rake in a measly dozen-or-so million, we all need to do our part and work the first hour of every day for free.

Does give me an idea: what if AC employees wrote off their “volunteer hours” on their taxes

The cost of just one of the new highway overpasses exceeds everything ever spent on bike lanes in Victoria.

When Michael Jordan felt boxed in by his success in basketball he tried baseball. When Gary Brooks became synonymous with country he created Chris Gaines. And when JK Rowling created the most successful kids books of all time she reinvented herself as a petty, weirdo transphobia influencer.

I can't believe Chappell Roan invented Saskatchewan

Due to mass confusion, clarifying again:

Tsunami Watch: Tsunami of indeterminate magnitude is possible; stand by.
Tsunami Advisory: Tsunami is likely *but will probably be small.* Evacuations unlikely.
Tsunami Warning: Tsunami is likely *and may be large.* Evacuations needed.

All this to say: I have no answers, and I don’t think the courts contain them at all. I just remember feeling such rage 17 years ago, but now I’m just tired. I believe survivors. I believe EM

I’m loath to propose changing rules to get more convictions, because in practice, if we make it easier for the government to imprison ppl, that change will be felt in already over policed and over incarcerated populations and not in privileged communities where the culture of entitlement runs deep

Like most SA cases, this one fell into the wide gulf between exoneration and proof-of-guilt-beyond-reasonable-doubt. I don’t know what the crown was thinking retraumatizing a victim (who had already been vindicated civilly) without the evidence that would lead to a conviction

The cataloguing of EM’s “inconsistencies” fell into two broad categories: a traumatized woman getting details of a night seven years ago wrong, or “EM’s testimony conflicted with this other witness’ statement”. Literally “he said—she said” being taken as “he said—she’s lying”

When I was 20, I attended the sentencing hearings for the attempted murder of my friend by her abuser. I remember feeling such an intense rage at the defence lawyer making such flimsy excuses for his client’s actions, but at least the final hearing by the judge put all that sophistry in its place

I felt I had to read the judge’s full decision in the Hockey Canada trial today to better understand it. I underestimated how triggering it would be to see the court system fail to handle violence against women

On this date in 1776 the statue of King George III was pulled down in New York City.

Because America didn't want a king who lived above the law.
