A great way for Canada to show our commitment to a better, stronger partnership with Europe would be for us to support this project! Imagine the opportunities for Canadian scientists!

For reasons that must have to do with friendship, @princejvstin.com is subjecting himself to my TTRPG nonsense for the second night! Please come out to the show. Either way, please also donate or join @skiffyandfanty.com's Patreon! :D

Some incumbents on council retired and some actually lost?! We have a bunch of new incoming councillors and they seem... mostly good?!

Oh my gosh, Diana Chan McNally won in Parkdale-High Park! Nate Erskine-Smith won in Beaches-East York! And CHIARA PADOVANI BEAT NUNZIATA IN YORK SOUTH-WESTON?!

Olivia Chow is projected to be re-elected as Toronto mayor. thelocal.to/olivia-chow-...

it's the same picture

Yes! She did it! We did it! Olivia Chow has been re-elected Mayor of Toronto, with a real majority, defeating Brad Bradford.

Olivia is #9 on your ballot!

Polls are open until 8 pm and the correct Chow, Olivia Chow, is #9 on the ballot. For the love of Toronto, get to your polling station.

I'm apprehensive, because I've seen my fellow citizens make bad calls before. But I believe we can also pull together and get it right. I have hope. Toronto, if you haven't already, please get to the polls and cast your ballot to re-elect Olivia Chow as our Mayor!

Toronto friends, it's municipal election day. It's time to re-elect Olivia Chow as our Mayor so we can keep building a better Toronto for all! Remember, it's a LONG ballot. Olivia is #9 on the ballot. (There's another Chow just above her. Don't accidentally vote for him!)

I cast my ballot in the municipal election! Thanks to the hard-working City of Toronto poll workers, who ably managed a jamming ballot tabulating machine and impatient waiting voters.

Okay. BC election outcome: Bad. Vancouver, Serbia and Brazil election outcomes: Really freaking good. Come on Toronto, let's be on the not-screwing-it-up side of history and re-elect Olivia Chow!

As I've said before, it's only once I became a professor that I realized the entmoot, a meeting that goes on for three days and three nights, was a professor's joke about faculty meetings.

I'm very lucky to be part of this amazing bunch of nerds.

He's also following the accounts of progressive people in SF&F, media, comics, and fandom. Just a few so far, but it's hard not to suspect he's using them as cover at best. I blocked him preemptively.

My take on the historic election last night here in BC. theconversation.com/david-ebys-e...

If you think a system that allows rich people to consolidate power and force the rest of us to work under them, and pollutes the land that gives us life, is going to get us out of this mess—you're in the way. #topoli #onpoli #toronto #ontario

Hey, so, it actually took a lot of people doing a lot of unpaid work for Jon Del Arroz to be properly marginalized from the SFF community, and now he’s back, and in one of the more widely read genre fan columns around. So I just have one question: @file770.bsky.social, what the actual hell?

This choice by File 770 is not acceptable.

Not from a NOVEL and it's niche, but as a teen I first read the word auto-cannon in a @sjgames.com CAR WARS supplement, and I thought it was something they'd made up that meant "big car gun". Confused the heck out of me when it came up in other contexts.

We've officially hit the halfway point on our raw funds goal for our 2026 fundraiser! We only have $247 to go on that! For our Patreon goal, we're $29/mo away from hitting that, and just two $5/mo supporters from unlocking the next giveaway! Do your thing, Internet! skiffyandfanty.com/b...

On Bradford’s Water Plan: He and his team are so close to literally stating the problem. They just don’t follow this thought to the obvious conclusion. Obtuse on their part. And then they act offended when anyone points out the flaw. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Please help if you can! Our goals are modest and focused on sustaining what we do, and every donation and every time you spread the word helps!

Here's what **Environment and Climate Change Canada** is posting as ads.

Because we know him here and he SUCKS

In the last 3 years, Bradford has stood in the way of making Toronto a more affordable and liveable city. Please look at his voting record, and vote accordingly on Monday.

Just because you ride a lot doesn’t mean you understand the needs of the city’s cyclists — especially children, women, and immigrants. The ravines are great. For daytime recreational rides.

We've got all kinds of quirky people on this one!
