Yesterday, a group of Toronto city councillors tried to redirect just 0.07% of the police budget to establishing 24/7 warming centres for homeless people so they’re less likely to freeze to death. The motion was overwhelmingly voted down. We have a truly depraved political system
A @BeckTaxi slowly drove into me today on the sidewalk while making a u-turn. My options are to fill out a form online which sends him a stern letter or spend 4 hours going to 1 of 2 Collision Reporting Centres in Toronto. Thank you @TorontoPolice very cool!

The contractor who came to fix our ceiling talked to me about how our rent is really expensive and we should buy a place. He bought his condo that's over an hour away from my work by transit for only 200k in 2006 like uhhh yeah totally affordable just let me get my time machine
In a surreal sequence of events, I successfully defended my PhD this week! An enormous thank you to my supervisor @merenbey. If you'd like to listen to me talk about poop 💩, Batman 🦇, and microbial colonization & resilience in the gut 🦠, here's my talk: https://t.co/IHwlz5Bzi9
So proud of my unofficial mentee @mathepan who as an MSc student conceived and lead and this PhD thesis of a project - excited to see what he comes up with when he does an *actual* PhD https://t.co/KjZ57wyrMa
My boyfriend's mom writing a text: We moved some stuff into the new house this week. Weather is good here. A fire broke out in the trailer in the driveway and spread to the house. Trailer destroyed. House still standing. I filed your tax return.
