Me, on the prep call for @cardusca's upcoming Women's Day panel on navigating institutions that aren't the right shape for women and families.

The baby *should* be in bed by the time you log in on March 8th, but who knows!

@jreimr Great eye for detail with the desk legs!

@natalie_morrill Fun fact, ABBA's wild looks were in part thanks to Swedish tax laws. They could only write off outfits that were "not suitable for daily wear"

@BrianDijkema I guess you could say he did it for the *royalties*

"Working class"... We keep using that word, I do not think it means what we think it means.

Cardus is delighted to host @AMacEwen @ArmineYalnizyan @Sean_Speer & Renze Nauta to get to the bottom of it.

The working class is making the news. But who makes up this oft-cited group of Canadians? We're hosting a stacked lineup of panelists to answer this question: who are the working class and what political program can truly serve them?

Once when I was young, around 8 or so, we had a garage sale. My siblings and I were killing time riding our bikes along the sidewalk and this guy stopped in. But he wasn't there to buy anything.

He went up to my mom, introduced himself and said he'd stopped because he saw us...

@Willem_Michael YES she is! You can tell her that Spring '19 is my forever favourite.

Summer issue of @commentmag is here and I’ve never wanted a coffee table more.

[Rachel Feddema @Rachel_Feddema]

Receiving a book you forgot you pre-ordered is a glorious feeling. So is realizing you’ve found kindred spirits at a dinner party, which @alissamarie has bottled in these pages.

Lastly, I'll leave you with this gem: https://t.co/zs6yP8EnbX

Where do vulnerable people in your community choose to go? (Not where do you want them to go. Not where they're forced to go.)

I think libraries are on that list in most municipalities. They facilitate knowing & being known. https://t.co/08HS8qOXjV @LitAtLeddy

[Rachel Feddema @Rachel_Feddema]

Libraries are more than literary collections and need to be resourced as such. Stretching librarians thin by asking them to be lay-social workers is unfair. @londonlibrary made a great move here. https://t.co/iOBCd2eKyu

@rjoustra Hopefully starting a faculty trend towards birthday cake jammies!

@natalie_morrill This reads perfectly like a 2022 twist on Anne Shirley's teaching experiences

"This is the everyday we spoke of"

[Sadie Shorr-Parks @SadieShorrParks]

I first read the poem "What The Living Do" by Marie Howe when I was 17 and I still think about it all the time.
