please support these folks now and hopefully when they end up in better circumstances

You need to read Corey Doctorow's book Enshittification. It'll give you more details about how FB has gone down the drain 😵‍💫

I also include myself, despite being a person who was born in Hong Kong, lived in South Korea (both places with excellent public transport) but grew up in Toronto with car culture and drink the car Koolaid hard like the average North American

If there is anything I've learned from listening to @thewaroncars.bsky.social and reading all these books on sustainable urbanism, it's that the average person has a terrible understanding of what good public transportation infrastructure looks like.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Dear Canada and Blue Jays: that was one of the best World Series ever. I wish you could have won too.

"...and you used to have to wear a jacket over your Halloween costume because it used to be cold in October!"

I clearly wrote Caturday and my stupid phone autocorrected that last sentence.

Cats woke me up before 5am and I was not able to go back to sleep 😑

Finished this at 8am.

Happy Saturday

Last week, one of my colleagues made a quiz for multilingual learners.

Is it normal if I bite my roommates' ears?

Morning face wash

I had the pleasure of seeing gannets for the FIRST TIME from a distance in Cheticamp, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.

However, the next day, I missed my birding boat tour by an hour because I had put it in my digital calendar under the wrong time zone 😑

One day I'll be back with my binoculars
