It can happen anywhere. There’s an arrogance in the West that thinks, of that’s over β€œthere”, it could never happen to us. But yes, yes it could and it is.

CBC thinks that they've lost core right wing audiences by being perceived as too left leaning so now they're over correcting by "both sidesing" issues. Also the clicks.

Stop trying to make Tilly Norwood happen. OOooooOOO a fake actress WOOOOWWWW. This is the blandest fucking most boring thing ever.

AND offensive. Real life women are earth shakingly fascinating, beautiful, smart and funny.

I get it. The world hates women and wants them subjugated. BUT I DON'T.

That's the best counter programming for this ridiculous and upsetting timeline.

Very. My affected friends were left leaning but during the pandemic, they ended up quite isolated. Their jobs shifted and then they spent a lot of time on X and Facebook groups. I'm quite worried about a few of them: we now actively avoid certain topics.

Yes, really educated and smart Canadians but spending too much time online. And getting into deep weeds.

I've seen the radicalization happen to some of my very stable friends who don't have enough real life social connections. It's scary.

Radicalized. No controls on guns or social media. They've already shown the links between being extremely online, access to weapons and these mass killings but there's too many corporate interests.

It is most wet outside. Wicking is a problem when it comes to pantsing.

Aw, thanks! I'm really looking forward to hearing the scripts performed!

I'm a panelist for the Vancouver Horror Show short film table read as the top three short film scripts are performed live on October 16, 2025!

This is the best the internet had to offer. But the reality is bleak.

β€œviolence is never judged only on the basis of lives lost or individuals harmed. It is judgedβ€”and narratedβ€”according to whether it sustains or threatens a particular social order. What counts as β€œviolence,” and what counts as β€œorder,” are always political determinations made by those in power”

Good point. As compared to what I thought: how awful are you that your hairdresser hates you this much?

What's with the crazy hair choices on all these evil, criminal politicians? Is it a chicken/egg situation?

Why are we on this particularly stupidly timeline?

Also, I like discovering that ostriches are less intelligent than fish.

*Workshop" is a good term for it. I'm starting to receive loglines and pitch decks clearly written by AI...and it takes me more time to rewrite them than to have written them from scratch.
