@JenSookfongLee My grandma had cable. I spent many best days watching MTV so I could have some semblance of pop culture knowledge when I went to school.

Every day in front of the TV was my best day.

@StevensonLDN You do realize we're Canadian right?

“The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Grants Pass v. Johnson that city ordinances against public camping do not constitute “cruel and unusual punishment” under the Eighth Amendment.” “Discovery Institute contends that cities and states need the freedom to address the root causes of homelessness like addiction and mental illness so that they might support organizations that are successfully and cost-effectively housing people.”

@StevensonLDN Safe supply isn't fueling the opioid crisis. We can blame the Sacklers for that, and doctors who prescribe opioids in the first place.

The conversation and debate around ‘safer supply’ is an important one for residents of #LdnOnt. There are many questions and concerns about what is fueling the drug addiction crisis in our city and how to address it.

We should really login more often xoxoxox

Monthly reminder: It’s okay to buy more books. It’s okay to get more books from the library. It’s okay to buy books you won’t read for years. It’s okay to pile books everywhere. It’s okay to get different editions of the same book. Books are awesome. Do whatever makes you happy.

@GabrielTimothyR @PastorTrey05 So you equate queerness with a negative impulse we should control?

I have literally never understood the “being gay is a choice” argument, because I can never recall coming to any forks in the road as far as sexual orientation goes. I’ve never arrived at a point where I was like “wait… which one do I *really* like??”

I go on hoping. Franz Kafka, 1915.

I hope you finish that novel or collection. I hope that cool press you like publishes your work. I hope you get paid. I hope I can read your words this year, even if whatever you're working on feels like trash right now. Hustle and get it done. Be creative. Good luck.
