Do my best to be hopeful, positive and bring joy and awesomeness to every moment. In the words of Ted Lasso, it’s never wrong to do the right thing, and be curious, not judgemental. Go Raptors! #Raptors #BlueJays #CovidIsNotOver #NeverVoteConservative

This is so fantastic…. Made me laugh… and now I know what to do with that chalk that’s sitting in my desk drawer….
A must listen for anyone in North America. The select few in power have been normalizing untruths and bad behaviour. We need to stand up (together) for what’s right.

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.
Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.
This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Cozy lit originated as a kind of quiet, ambiguous fiction. Now, the West has blended it with romance tropes, TikTok aesthetics, and dopamine-driven pacing. But what gets lost when comfort becomes content? thewalrus.ca/cozy-lit/

Ontario and Alberta, this is happening to you. Health care that you have to pay for will put you in debt. It will cost you your house. Say goodbye to retirement. Fight like hell to save #UniversalHealthcare before it’s too late.
ACA marketplace subsidies, which allowed millions of people to afford private health insurance, are set to expire by the end of this year.
For contractors and freelancers in particular, the expiration of these enhanced subsidies could decide whether or not they can afford health insurance.

Amazon Limits Authors to Self-Publishing 3 Books Per Day Amid Flood of AI Garbage
Amazon moves to stop people from posting AI-generated books on its marketplace, though a three-books-per-day limit still seems high given how long it takes to write an actual book.
