NOTE: Over the next while I'll be on this platform less and less as I migrate away. Been on here since 2009 and it hurts to leave, but I feel it's the right thing to do. Thanks so much for following. I hope you'll come find me elsewhere, like Instagram, Substack, and...

This is my dad in WW2. Fought to liberate Europe and slap down a fascist dictator whose political allies allowed him to incrementally gain more and more authoritarian power until he could ultimately rule without answering to the people. #LestWeForget

To my American friends/followers: Please understand that folks from other countries do have particular hopes for the outcome of your election. You're the biggest, richest, strongest - your policies ripple & rumble. The Avengers are very happy to have Hulk, but also a bit nervous.

Really saddened to hear about the passing of Kathleen McGee, a truly funny and fearless comedian who stood tall on the Canadian comedy scene. She will be sorely missed by so many in and outside the industry. My heartfelt condolences to her family.

Whole buncha live shows coming up. Hope to see you at one. Or more. You could follow me around like The Grateful Dead. "Buttheads" doesn't sound great, I admit.

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.) To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!
