I think if Canada wants to have a strong cultural identity we need to go back to doing what we're best at, making the weirdest fucking TV shows you've ever seen

The Internet was a mistake. Literacy was a mistake. The whole species needs to seriously consider going back into the water.

the key to happiness is living each day in hope, as though IT may happen at any moment
But you imagine where you might be, eventually, when you learn IT has HAPPENED.
Maybe you will wake up, anxious and scared and angry (i.e., normal).
Then, out of nowhere, the push notification from THE NEWS: “Breaking: IT Has HAPPENED.”

They keep trying to normalize and minimize, but that fact is inescapable.
I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Yet again we’re being warned that if we ask billionaires to pay their fair share of tax they might leave. So it’s definitely worth trying.
