- I have just learned that my Grade 3 teacher, Mrs. Rokne has passed away. She was extremely beloved in my elementary and personally, she is basically entirely responsible for my love of fantasy books.
- She used to read to my class for a half hour every day, a variety of books. One day, she read to us Brian Jacques' Bellmaker. The class did not like it, or more accurately the class couldn't really follow along and fell asleep here and there, but I loved the book.
- When she decided not to read it anymore, she leant it to me because I was enraptured. I spent the rest of the week and the weekend right after, plowing through the entire book, something like 350 pages.

- And he's right. If you're in a position of government in Alberta, and you take money from a foreign state to overthrow the government and separate, that's LITERALLY TREASON. Jeffery Rath is a literal traitor. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
- They are actively planning eugenics.
- It appears there is now a measles outbreak at the Dilley family detention facility. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...
- Capitalism is the weirdest mind drug. Do they think that because they're 'consumers' they are wholly innocent? I guess they do. I guess they literally in fact do.
- Hell yeah Ava. All the people who said "They probably just released her because she wasn't progressing fast enough" can go fuck themselves.
