    Hardest interview I've done for the book by far. Jill Lepore is great, and didn't let me off the hook. She would, however, be disappointed to know I'm tweeting this (or anything!):

    It is heartwarming to see the community supporting Wuhan Noodle 1950 in Markham, after reports the restaurant was getting prank calls and was the subject of discrimination on social media. I had a delicious lunch and it was busy and bustling. This is Markham!

    Upset that many still take the Grits seriously when attacking Tories on rights issues when they've launched a 4 year assault on the Charter: - forced breathalyzer tests w/ no warrant - mandatory licenses for news websites - restricting political speech between elections

    “A highly regulated Internet in which an expanded CRTC would aggressively assert its jurisdictional power over Internet sites and services worldwide with the power to levy massive penalties for failure to comply” - my takeaway from yesterday’s report

    omg, just discovered that my new phone lets me screen calls using the Google Assistant—if I think a call is spam, I don't even have to talk to someone, but my phone will take a message if it turns out not to be a spammer. This feature makes me feel *incredibly* powerful

    Going to make a point of going to a Chinese grocery store and/or restaurant tonight. The way fear seems to be mutating into racism is not cool, and the country a person was born in shouldn't determine whether their business succeeds.

    Not only is this the best bait and switch I've ever seen, this is the best bait and switch anyone has ever seen.

    Since is trending today, I thought I might talk about it a little. It's unfortunately much maligned, but it's actually a rather good typeface—but you can make it even better! In this thread, I'll show you how (in Word). 😉

    I still can't believe the fact that Pete Buttigieg's last name is Arabic hasn't become more common knowledge over the last year. Buttigieg means "Father of the Chicken" - ابو دجاج. A quick thread on Malta and why they speak Arabic:

    Toronto likes to blame Queen's Park for a lot, and it's often deserved, but so much of the harm in this city is self-harm. Literally nobody forced Toronto Council to rebuild the Gardiner.

    My most IDW-esque opinion is that this sort of political viewpoint imbalance is a problem. A big one, potentially, if it leads to a major and sustained collapse in public trust in or support for the academy.

    This was one of the most depressing and yet motivating data I've seen on this topic of who we spend our time with and it's finiteness..

    One of my favourite sound-worlds in music is a mystical kind of sound employed by Parisian organists in the 20th century. A short demo of it is this spooky version of Baa-Baa, Black Sheep (at 2:16) Can recommend pieces in this vein to anyone interested!

    This shouldn't surprise anyone. Recently tried to help a homeless (US citizen) friend apply to jobs. He got some, but then his secondary documents required for employment verification went missing, lost or stolen - not uncommon when in unstable living situations.
