Cops keep showing up to arts events about Palestine. What can organizers do? Toronto police showed up at a comedy fundraiser and at a film screening on the same night in April. Organizers describe how this fits into a broader pattern and what can be done to protect community…

Toronto: What we’re seeing now is that (police) are not even distinguishing between protests, academic events or cultural events. Any time there are Palestinians speaking about Palestine, they are viewed as potentially anti-semitic or promoting violence.” www.thegrindmag.ca/cops-keep-sh...

There are a pair of Canada geese hanging out on the terrace in front of the gym. I hope they don't drop any weights or make any other noise or the building staff are gonna take our recess away.

Tenants at a Toronto apartment building have been without heat for 20 days | CBC News Tenants of a midtown Toronto apartment building are frustrated, saying they have been without heat since the start of April.

Landlords are scum. I am often impressed with the boots on the ground work Matlow does in his ward. Hey, that's Max Renn's building from Videodrome.

The artist formerly known as Betty Clock'er scored a Pillow Fight League t-shirt in a local MaxSold auction and it turns out the seller was the guy who briefly bought the rights and tried to restart the league and he told her that trying to run the PFL was the start of a bunch of misfortune.

They assume we're dropping weights so we're all getting punished. (I have yet to see or hear anyone dropping weights, and I am not a forgiving person about bad gym etiquette.)

Someone made a noise complaint about our gym so building management has responded by TAKING ALL OF OUR FREE WEIGHTS AWAY.

“Brutally honest, empathetic, and perceptive, Manic Autistic Dream Girl is a memoir that manages to speak to so many of our community’s experiences while remaining true to Whetstone’s unique perspective. What a gift it is to read an autistic story written so autistically.” — Sarah Kurchak, author of I Overcame My Autism And All I Got Was This Lousy Anxiety Disorder.

When one of your writer heroes, much less one you hold admiration for in terms of “writing about autism and pop culture”, writes a blurb about your book, it’s fine to fangirl a little bit, right?

I’ve never been more honored. Thank you, thank you, thank you, @fodderfigure.bsky.social.

But I think a 20 year old familiar with UK culture would still be aware of Take That. They come up a lot. Including previous Taskmaster series.

I never could have predicted that the new Sqwad member would make everyone hit the yaoi drug-spiked protein powder even harder. What a wonderful development.

I thought Americans learned about Take That when they got really mad about the Robbie Williams monkey movie.

What is a "Take That" fan?
HELP! 🔎
American here. Greg accused Amy and Joel of acting like a couple of "Take That" fans. Kumail seemed as confused by the reference as I was, although the context was pretty easy to pick up on.

Still, I'd like to know. What did Greg mean?

I'm not a day one Taskmaster fan, but I have been watching long enough to notice how the international audience has gone from people who were already immersed in a certain level of UK pop culture to people who only watch and know Taskmaster.

The dude behind me at the Limblifter show last night had zero clue that Ryan Dahle was in Age of Electric and I have absolutely no idea how a person going to a Limblifter show in 2026 who is also familiar with the AOE could miss that.
