I say we stop using the term “raging hormones” when referring to adolescents. It’s not helpful. Their big emotions are the side effects of unbelievably fast brain growth. Yes it’s messy, but it’s also pretty damn heroic.

Amid confident predictions that kids will use AI (specifically, ChatGPT) to cheat on writing assignments, I thought I'd repost my review of research on what really makes cheating more likely - and why it matters how "cheating" is defined in the 1st place: is.gd/dGz2a3.

Vonnegut's reflection is a breath of fresh air in an achievement-crazy culture - and particularly welcome in contrast to the grit mindset that says kids must stick with one thing until they master it (even if joylessly) rather than sampling a broad range of experiences.

Mexican Coke definitely tastes better. Glass bottle is a huge factor.

Once Leonard Cohen read a whole poem on the radio. The interviewer asked him “What does the poem mean?” Cohen paused for a long moment - and then read the entire poem again.

#ReconciliACTION is the answer to Gord’s call to ‘Do Something’. Do something to raise awareness, do something that improves the lives of Indigenous people, do something that improves the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. downiewenjack.ca/our-work/recon…

I can't believe that we figured out how to make so many effective #COVID19 vaccines in just 15 months but didn't make sure that everyone in the world would have equitable access to a vaccine.


I’m very sorry to say that this is just the tip of the iceberg. There will be more. I’m increasingly horrified, but not surprised.

If you are more upset with the fallen statue of Egerton Ryerson or plans to #CancelCanadaDay than finding unmarked mass graves of murdered Indigenous Children...you are part of the problem, not the solution.

AN IDIOT’S GUIDE TO INDIGENOUS PEOPLE: Indigenous people like to drink water. Preferably clean water. Frequently from a tap. The Government is looking into it.
