A modest goal this year. Track what I'm reading honestly in Goodreads. Most years I read tons of books, track nothing & don't remember what I've read. It seems such a small thing in the current geopolitical moment, but I'm a tiny blip who mostly does good by teaching school. Happy New Year all!!

Whole town thinks I did it.

Good submission news. Penguin Random House Canada opens to unagented BIPOC and LGBTQ+ subs www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/imprints/RR/...

That makes sense. Thanks 👍

Does this mean 1 room for 2 people for 2 nights (Friday and Sat) automatically comes with 2 Saturday lunches + 1 Saturday breakfast and 1 Sunday breakfast? At that rate, I don't need to pay extra for the meal plan... Did I understand correctly?

Whatever This Is - DEEP DIVE: Why the CBC is an Election Issue YouTube video by Forward Canada

I would be so sad without the CBC. Because news, the news app on my phone, too many TV shows to mention. This video is more about what defunding (i.e. deleting) the CBC will really mean to non-partisan reporting in Canada. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iN_w...

TAKE THE PLEDGE: Don’t Let Disinformation Win Canada’s Election This election, U.S.-style disinformation and foreign interference are flooding into Canada. It’s designed to divide us, mislead us, and tilt the election toward those who are willing to lie to win.
