Haven't felt like sharing on twitter since Sept 2023 for several reasons, and I won't be doing so at all going forward. I can be found in the fediverse at @dktr0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">social.toplap.org/@dktr0 as well as on the Estuary discord (current invite link can be found at estuary.mcmaster.ca)!

"Hard times are coming, when we’ll be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now...We’ll need writers who can remember freedom — poets, visionaries — realists of a larger reality." On January 22, 2018, the universe lost Ursula K. Le Guin

Who is calling the shots in #hamont? Was it local developers who pushed now resigned chief of staff Ryan Amato to expand our urban boundary by 5436 acres?? Who benefits from urban expansion? $$$

By far the biggest jaw-dropped in the integrity commissioner report so far: typed notes from a meeting indicate the Premier directly gave files about three sites to Ryan Amato. Amato, Premier Ford and Premier's Office staff deny this.

Ryan Amato duped public servants The developer "rumor mill" believed the "writing was on the wall" WHO IS MR. X AND WHY DID HE HAVE SO MUCH INFLUENCE? We learned bombshell after bombshell today. Me, @EmmaMci & @balkissoon break it down in DETAIL thenarwhal.ca/ontario-integr… #ONpoli

Is there anything better than a baby’s laughter? Dad has this little one in stitches as he… plants cucumbers? What’s so funny about that? 🤔 The answer has a lot to do with baby’s expectations. Young children have strong reactions to the unexpected. When something surprising occurs they first assess the risk. If they perceive danger then tears are likely. But what if something isn’t dangerous… it’s just plain weird? Think about this one from baby’s growing perspective. At home, daddy isn’t known for throwing things on the ground. In fact, just the opposite. When something falls on the floor, he’s always quick to pick it up. So when he starts suddenly - and repeatedly - throwing cucumber plants on the ground… now THAT’s funny. For babies, safe + unexpected = comedy gold. This great video was posted to IG by edibleuprisingfarm.
