Students made their first minicomics in my intro making course - mostly standard format but this student, a first time maker(!), did something so off the charts I’m still reeling from it! & he made like 12 of them for his classmates! A paper engineering feat of flipbookery as well as killer drawing!

This is something we should see "Alberta is calling" for. It is fucking horrendous. Kids shows on YouTube should be pre-rolled with BetMGM. Screw those guys and the UCP government for abandoning its citizens to this bullshit. #abpoli

I don't see any independence supporters. Independence supporters would say that. They would say "Alberta Independence". Unless they are too afraid to offend their neighbours?

Jeff Wall looked back at a Ralph Ellison novel and thought people could connect with someone feeling invisible. This is us. We live under 1369 lights. 1369 eyes on us and we still feel invisible. There is danger in this space.

China is not a reliable partner. Anyone remember how the commitment they made to Hong Kong's rights? Ask SE Asia how much China's signature on the Law of the Seas Treaty is going. If China's own people or neighbours can't trust them, no one else can either. China is not reliable.

My father was a truck driver. He was a typical Alberta redneck and hated the Sikh drivers.... Until he realized most were just as redneck as him but with an accent. In the months before he died suddenly he had been planning on going into business with a Sikh friend he had made.

I have to admit that I didn’t know, and I even thought the Spanish player Cucurella’s look was quite original, when it comes to his hair, but I was unaware of this: If he let his hair grow , it’s so that his autistic son can easily recognize him when he watches him on TV. Truly, this Spanish team ❤️

People are always talking about the things we have today that our ancestors didn't, but nobody wants to look at the things our ancestors had that we've lost. Like community, and free time, and environmental sustainability, and a collective that cares whether we live or die

This is why Smith's referendums are ridiculous. You can't hold "people" and especially dead people accountable for damaging decisions. Referendums erode democractic trust because there is no accountability. We elect MLAs/MPs to make decisions and be accountable. #abpoli #ableg

I've always been a little suspicious of calling any artist 'the greatest' as though there were some league table. But as the years passed, and the work continued it's restless advance, and the way of seeing never faltered, it became clear to me that David Hockney really was ours. RIP.

This is so true.
They’re conservative elites who play themselves off as grassroots victims of that toxic dynamic between oil country and The Rest; they’re wealthy lawyers, local business bosses, political power brokers, academic enablers, and media gatekeepers. They operate by exploiting the alienated, the frustrated, the angry, and the insane in order to inch themselves one rung further up a sinking chain.
And this incestuous little crew, regardless of how the vote goes, they are going to make out like bandits. Let me tell you, none of these separatists leaders or their enablers care one whit what happens to house prices or the Albertan economy or the enmity or hatred that will be fomented as a result of the chaos they are courting.
These local elites have given no consideration to the risks or impacts of foreign interference. They have no serious plan for what happens if a referendum vote succeeds — or fails. They don’t give a shit. They’ll get theirs — the connections they’re building, the profile they’ll build, the email lists they’re creating, the money they’ll raise through crowdfunding. All of it will roll right next into the next cause, and the one after that. Yeehaw.
These people are children poisoned by cynicism and self-regard running an ugly little grift and ordinary Albertans will foot the bill in the long run.
And they can do this because our elected leaders have let them do it. They’ve allowed themselves to become beholden to this crew. They pander to them, in fact.
