@Devin_Heroux The Canadian Pride Curling Championship 2023 will be in Halifax this year (co-occurring with the Bluenose Bonspiel)! March 23-26. Great spiel, great vibe - check it out!
@MarkTMcDevitt No; I'm stressed that I have to eventually weigh the risk of a house fire against my desire to have a Christmas tree ALL. YEAR. LONG. :D
@kevin_guyan That's too bad; I'd love to have pop-level data that show how many LGBT folks use "queer" as a self-descriptor and see if that jibes with the 2020 report from the Williams Institute that reported it was only about 6% of LGB adults in the US.
@fit_nut_curl So much this. When I'm skipping, I tell reticent weight-callers that even wrong info gives me useful info (e.g., if someone is consistently calling it heavy, I can adjust based on their call and infer the actual weight)!
@metzpsych Also this one - has great points about how the complexity of sex and gender gets oversimplified: Keenan HB. Unscripting Curriculum: Toward a Critical Trans Pedagogy. Harvard Educational Review. 2017;87(4):538-556. doi:10.17763/1943-5045-87.4.538

@DrSebastianBarr And yet there are many parents who, while they love their kids, DO regret having had them, and they have precious few places to find support.
