Well, we certainly can't have kids learning about a different time and place from their daily reality! That would be terrible.

I wanna encourage allies to make donations today. Every sexual assault centre in the country has seen an uptick in calls *just* from the trial, let alone today's verdict. I'd also encourage you to support the most effective rape resistance program in the world (based here in Canada!)

The new edition of @janefriedman.com's book "The Business of Being a Writer" is not just for writers, but has useful insights that we as editors can also use (and for us to pass on to writer clients). Here Jane shares what's been updated. Trust us, you'll want to get a copy of this updated book! ✏️

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

Yes, I've seen the account that alleges to be from someone at a literary agency, making fun of queries that come through the door. If real, it's shitty, unethical behavior, also, I just wrote a best-selling book about the moon turning to cheese, so fuck anyone shaming writers for "out there" ideas.

My daughter adores space. "Hidden Figures" is a favourite movie. She watches space education videos every day. And I'm so thrilled to tell her that she, too, can go to space with absolutely no scientific agenda if she simply befriends a billionaire and gets fresh hair extensions. #BlueOrigin
