Always asking why. Here to help. Obsessed with: 🍁 Canadian health system education 📝 Supporting journalism 🤺 Fighting misinformation About CMA Media: About me:
Please admire my 14yr old’s World Cup snack plate. She is cheering for Spain & I’m cheering for the fact that some vegetables & fruit made it on this plate
Henry’s always deep in thought about what it means to be human & I keep reminding him we’re designed to enjoy as much time as possible with cats.
Whoever at @poynterinstitute.bsky.social handed over their Instagram account to a clever young person deserves a raise
So relieved the lower loop in High Park is open again & for the brief break in the smoke today. Some of us are like race horses & need to get out daily or it really affects our mental health
This dystopian orange wildfire hue has Coco deep in thought about how climate change is an existential threat
Currently stunned by the colourful language my 14yr has for Messi & Argentina, which is completely lost on me, but seems an appropriate moment to let her get away with it
Watching soccer because I love my kid and she’s obsessed and wants an England-Spain final. I’ve just spent the last ten minutes trying to understand how offside works in this sport and honestly still don’t get it. What am I even looking at
A perfect morning. I’m free & sometimes the men in my life think they’re competing with another person for my time and attention but they’re actually competing with the peaceful life I’ve built for myself
People ask what kind of excitement I have in my peaceful life but they don’t realize I’m in a stormy relationship with a plant. It’s not dead. It’s just thirsty & very dramatic about it.
Someone very dear to me & too young is in palliative care 💔 so let me remind you life is so short and brutal. Please make sure to prioritize love and joy. Speak your truth. Make sure that every day you wake up doing what you really want if you can & don’t waste time with worry. Live. Now.
Coco is not very subtle about asking for time on my calendar and makes it impossible to say no
In our research too, Canadian media still holding its own even as U.S. media tanks. Don’t let social media discourse tell the story - I do believe we have resilience here Full deck: www.cma.ca/research-and...
Henry contemplating one of his favourite Mary Oliver poems, the Sun. streaming upward on its heavenly oils, say, on a morning in early summer, at its perfect imperial distance–
Hey Toronto friends - A big tree & live wires down at the East entrance to High Park this afternoon & it’s a miracle no one got hurt. The wind is deceptively dangerous today and you better believe I sped walked my out of the park when I realized it lol
My lovely neighbour tends to the most delicious roses. They’re so pretty they don’t even look real. And, yes, I take the advice to stop and smell the roses very intentionally a couple of times a day.
The air in High Park this afternoon is lush, fragrant, practically tropical. A constant relief from the heat of concrete & the city. Words are insufficient to describe my love for this place.
I love Toronto so much. Law & Order is shooting an episode near my place on the Wallace footbridge. Something cosplay related & a character gets thrown off the bridge.
