The media is following the example of some governments who deliberately decide to not list MAID as cause of death on death certificates. So, we have literal scientists saying it wasn't the lethal injection it was the osteoarthritis that killed them.
And now media.
So disturbing

the mourner's kaddish – the prayer that we jews recite when someone has died – is similarly a proclamation of god's greatness, containing no expression of sadness at all. one could choose to dehumanize us by claiming it means we don't mourn our dead. but one doesn't.

Research found 'no consistent associations' between police funding & crime rates across 20 large municipalities in Canada.

The research is a chance for ppl to instead focus on investments in youth, education, housing & other social services. #YEG #abpoli

It is so strange to me how the our kinscapes have changed. I had dozens of cousins growing up. My first set of kids have ZERO, and my second set of kids have 2...adult cousins they've never met.

I'm sorry but who is expecting grandchildren anymore? I'd be absolutely shocked if any of my multitudinous children decided to procreate to be quite honest. They don't see the world as open and full of hope, and some have already been very clear that this is UNLIKELY at best.

The novel is bourgeois, the novella is petty-bourgeois, the pamphlet is proletarian and the leaflet is lumpen. Get it through your head.

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask what a job offers you beyond exploiting your labour in exchange for a wage. Like, a lot is expected of you - what's in it for you besides the money?

If the answer is nothing, then what the fuck loyalty do you think anyone is going to have?

PP thinks that the trades are using literal magic and it's the weirdest thing ever. He says welders use their bare hands. He thinks electricians harness electricity from the sky?

Oh fuck. What do plumbers do?

Teeth by Dallas Hunt- with my art on the cover! cbc.ca/books/teeth-by…

another day another round of folks making fun of this book. i promise if you are author who thinks your art is SO much better, here is news: this book is trotting circles around you. gatekeepers with ‘low brow’ disgust are ten times more vapid than things they pretend to hate

More amazing news! I've been shortlisted for the BC & Yukon Book Prizes Dorothy Livesay Poetry Award! Again, I'm truly amongst such amazing company. Congratulations to all the finalists! bcyukonbookprizes.com/winners-finali…

LOL.

I was written by AI when I used the word 'truculent' to describe the university yesterday, as I was trying to avoid saying 'FUCKING SHITTY.'

Turns out it wasn't at Sakahàn after all, but this is it!!!! collection.nfb.ca/interactive/ku…

Huge thanks to Greg Hill for pointing me in the correct direction!

On a related note, what jobs are out there for academics who are fucking sick of being exploited by the academy?
