Bruce will be back in D.C. on Oct. 3, as a special guest of the first-ever Power to the People Festival — joining Tom Morello to play a few songs with his band for another night of music and resistance.

I missed the slacker boom of the 90s because I was a kid. I endeavour to bring back being a slacker, while working way too hard as a teacher. I work non-stop, but I want to be just hanging out at a vegan bakery that’s also an activist space/used record store.

The world needs to go back to the 90s when it was an acceptable career choice to spend all day riding your bike to used bookstores, record shops, and thrift stores then hit up the coffee shop to read the old books you bought before making a vegan stew for the entire house of punks you lived with.

Even though the health care system is in crisis, the UCP shut down the Legislature early because they didn't want to talk about people dying in Alberta's emergency rooms. We need solutions, not a government that shuts down debate.

I just saw the new Fantastic Four movie, and I must say that it is the bee’s knees! They finally got The Thing right. He’s the emotional centre of the film, as he is with my life.

Teachers don’t want to strike. They want to teach. But the UCP has pushed them to the brink by refusing to invest in classrooms, ignoring basic needs, and treating bargaining like a political game. Supporting public education means supporting the people who make it possible. #BetterisPossible

So far, I think Blue Sky is interesting, but I really don’t have much to say to add to this conversation. Thanks for all the follows from strangers. And not all spam bots and romance scammers either! I feel so important. It’s an honour to be followed by someone not looking to steal my info.
