  1. That's all the prescription I need. Thanks, Internet! twitter.com/andrewbrett/st…
  2. On a related note, I miss free health care.
  3. "Do you have Advil?" "What?" "Advil." "What?" "Like... drugs." // How to end a conversation in seven words.
  4. @AliAbunimah "Town-hally" should enter mainstream political lexicon.
  5. @shaminis J'aime KD!
  6. UK Labour MP urges unions to use pro-business messaging. m.guardian.co.uk/business/2012/… // Somewhere in a boardroom, suits are laughing maniacally.
  7. I love your use of Arial in that poster.
  8. @AuntieMahalia @jrcoleTO Pedants who erroneously use "whom" as a subject. And @ladygaga's songwriters.
  9. Okay, "you and I" may be a strong competitor.
  10. The "whom" hypercorrection is the most irritating.
  11. Heads should also be rolling at the University of Toronto for its part in the illegal raid on its own student union. #G20
  12. Unlawful mass arrests at University of Toronto during #G20 were based on "tip" from #UofT private investigator. thestar.com/news/article/1…
  13. @nealjennings Sadly I don't have enough education or professionalism to prove the theory.
  14. @nealjennings Possibly a critique of the professionalisation of activism by academia. My subconscious should write a dissertation on it.
  15. I had a dream where the entire Toronto activist community was in a room together, deciding which PhD programs to apply for.
  16. Posting articles about the white saviour industrial complex is the new white saviour industrial complex.
