And I think neurodivergent folks get extra props here. We’re used to navigating spaces, social mores not designed for us l, in normal times. ‘masking’ is extra fucking hard when the contexts in which u developed those masks is totally upended (8/9)

Ben Affleck's mother Chris Affleck passed today. I was unaware of her longstanding activism for Palestine. Now his disgust and revulsion at genocidal Zionist Bill Maher and Sam Harris's deranged racist Islamophobic rants makes perfect sense. RIP, you raised a good son.

I wonder how many anti-DRIPA folks have read George Abbott's best-seller, Unceded, which spells out in shameful detail just how badly First Nations were treated in BC, the only province that didn't bother to sign treaties because they were fine with just taking their land #bcpoli

Can confirm I’ve entered my ‘I wish concerts weren’t so loud’ era

CBC Vancouver’s On The Coast is hearing from celebrated philosopher and activist @CornelWest at 4:35 today!

He’ll be speaking with Jodie Martinson about his lecture for SFU ‘Where Do We Go From Here? The Future of Justice and Solidarity’

There's about a 60 minute wait at #DouglasPark to vote in the Vancouver election. The good news is a girl and her Dad are working the line selling Girl Guide cookies. So you won't starve. #VanPoli

Our Junos special edition of On The Coast With Gloria Macarenko was incredibly fun!

We had lots of live performances, Juno nominees and all kinds of great stories about Canadian music

Check it out here: https://t.co/eRSUmbLG1N

@SocMedGirlyyj It was a fun time for sure!

[Sean Carleton @SeanCarleton]

Elbows up! But, as a historian, I need to point out that the new "I Am Canadian" video getting a lot of buzz this week quickly glosses over Canada's own history of aggressive colonialism - the kind of antagonism the video challenges - and we should talk about it 🧵

Tariff Canada: Smart!
Tariff Mexico: Super smart!
Smaller tariffs on China: Super-duper smart!
Pause Canadian & Mexican tariffs: Smarter!
Tariffs back on Canada: Smartest!
Tariffs back on Mexico: Smartester!
Pause Mexican but not Canadian tariffs: Smartest-er-est!
Pause Canadian tariffs: F**g smart!

How long until Trump demands we appoint an Egg Czar to stop the flow of eggs across the border? https://t.co/W6bTLevOlk

The anti-monarchist forces in Canada just got stronger than any other point in our country’s history.

Canada could be invaded tomorrow and there would be some civility politics guy on here saying it’s not classy to fight back.

@42kareemallam It is insane that in 1991, this required ‘months of debate’ from the federal government!

Nirvana Reunion: All Apologies #fireaid

[Gurpreet Kambo @gkam99]

I was not very familiar with Stevie Nicks’ solo work before, but she absolutely killed it. Totally a fan now #fireaid

@KristinRaworth But somehow, calling people ‘wacko’ is different?

[Frances Bula @fabulavancouver]

I personally am trying to hang in on Twitter because I believe we can't get better if everyone shuts themselves into silos but, my god, some days it's just roving bands of angry MAGA thugs beating up any lib they find and those libs struggling to present rational counters.
