A beautiful speech by Madeleine Thien who will be donating the entirety of her prize to the Woodcock Fund for Canadian writers in need, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, and the Lebanese Red Cross, in the name of her friend Y-Dang Troeung, who passed away in 2022.

I think it is wrong that David Bergen continues to be attacked by the The Giller Prize, a literary organization, for daring to write and express his thoughts. Today David spoke movingly with jayme poisson on Front Burner. The interview can be heard here, cbc.ca/listen/cbc-pod…

I'm so serious, if you stop using your creativity, imagination and thinking abilities you will LOSE them. Millions of people willingly giving up their intellects, the very thing that makes them human, is a nightmare straight out of our darkest science-fictions.

Everyone, please cite the author (me, in this case), when you post a piece of writing, especially a piece about human authorship and ethical citation. Thank you.

genuinely don’t understand how banning puberty blockers but only for trans kids isn’t discrimination on the basis of a protected characteristic. it isn’t just the same medication, it’s the same medication for the same purpose: delaying puberty for better outcomes for a patient

Always disgusted by AI but doing this to Severance of all things, a show about how people matter and cannot and will not be replaced or erased for corporate profit, is particularly heinous

We have been here before. Our elders have overcome worse. We will too. Our movement history is defined by our resistance to hostile, homophobic and transphobic governments around the world. In hope and defiance, we will resist, overcome, and bring liberation closer than ever.

It's so special to have your work featured by the journalists you've long looked to for inspiring, powerful journalism 🥹🥹🥹 This story took a year to report and is increasingly relevant as more and more people seek asylum and arrive at our doorstep (the Greater Toronto Region)

As I seem to be shadowbanned, I repeat: The "riviera plan" for Gaza is nonsense, which nonetheless must be taken very seriously. President Trump has basically declared his intention to commit the int'l crime of forced displacement and resort to unlawful use of force against the
