And let's not forget about the non-binary people as well. Like anybody, any human being. That's what I should have written. Thank you so much for pointing it out. Sometimes I let my anger get the better of me, I only had 25 minutes to write this. 🤦♂️

If we want to know the heart of a generation, we should look less at what they tell a surveyor and more at the stories they turn to for comfort when the world feels broken. We should look at where they spend their money. ../8

If young people are increasingly skeptical of the establishment, they are likely to view a survey as a tool of that establishment. They may provide the wrong answer as an act of defiance. I know that I used to do it. ../7

Human sexuality is an immutable part of our existence. In times of social instability, people don't always turn toward bias. They turn toward escape. Like fairy tales, these stories offer a "happily ever after" that functions as a counterweight to a world that feels as though it is falling apart../3

In "The surprising rise of anti-gay bias," the authors suggest that the success of the television series Heated Rivalry is a welcome burst of hope in a darkening era. However, as a former journalist, I believe the authors miss the broader context. Heated Rivalry is not a new sign of progress. ../1

That is an AJ Bus Lines Ltd. School Bus from Elliot Lake (Largest Populationin the Area), it definitely saves time for everyone going from Sault Ste. Marie to Sudbury (or back) from having to add 32 minutes each way up Highway 108, so I think it's smart.
A cool thing happens here in Spragge: Ontario Northland runs this little school bus shuttle to Elliot Lake, with transfers to and from the main line taking place here! A few offs and a few ons.

The Problem is the details that they left out. Fact: this was already agreed to between CUPW and CPC. Fact: they left out what they want to take away from us, and why the Union is fighting against it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmM0...
