It’s still #freepalestine forever. We will continue to protest. We are not afraid.

Pro-Palestine fill Yonge and Dundas square in Toronto. Palestinian flags fly, red smoke fills the air in front of the massive billboards.

People match with Palestinian signs and flags on the street between tall buildings in Toronto. One says “Queers for Palestine.”

Sunlight glints off of the red smoke in the air. People with Palestinian flags and signs that say “ceasefire now” chant in front of a tall building.

A sign that says “Canada can’t call itself a peacemaker” in the foreground. In the middle ground, a Canadian flag with a red handprint where the leaf should be. In the distance, Palestinian flags.

I’ll say more later but on this Thanksgiving weekend, I’m so grateful he was ours.

A tall man with a thick grey beard and glasses is standing in a boat and holding a massive pike. He’s got a big smile and he’s wearing his favourite T-shirt, which says “The Good Life” on it. His name is Matthew Parkhill and he was a wonderful person.

Why am I watching an empty stadium and Dan Plesac spit out his gum? The Apple TV MLB games have terrible production quality, and it’s not just because they’re filmed on an iPhone.

Nothing tops Hermes in terms of price but this is a whole genre of purse.

The right: It’s DISGUSTING to celebrate political violence.

I can’t quite put it into words yet, but something is happening, a kind of global singularity—a fusion of tech/media/news/government/employment which allows the global elite to push single agendas: “You WILL care about Charlie Kirk. You will NOT care about Palestine. You WILL fear cancel culture.”
