Apparently, someone got a bright idea into their heads about one Canadian TV show in particular:

Passing this link along, obtained via the Canadian Conrunners Central server on Discord. Advice on things to do or to avoid doing in future. As a past member of a convention organizing committee, and possibly to rejoin such in future, I want to make a note to keep such things in mind.

As to the writer of said blog entry:

Stephen Graham Jones is the New York Times bestselling author of The Only Good Indians. He has been an NEA fellowship recipient, has won the Jesse Jones Award for Best Work of Fiction from the Texas Institute of Letters, the Independent Publishers Award for Multicultural Fiction, a Bram Stoker Award, four This is Horror Awards; and has been a finalist for the Shirley Jackson Award and the World Fantasy Award. He is the Ivena Baldwin Professor of English at the University of Colorado Boulder. His next book My Heart Is a Chainsaw will be available wherever books are sold in August 2021.

Is anyone else paying attention to Michael Geist's postings about Bill C-10?

Listening to this programme as I type this entry. Per the title on the CBC page:

dewline: Community is Real! (community)
Some of you know about [community profile] fandom_checkin. It was started up as a support community here on Dreamwidth back in March 2020 at the start of the Time of (the latest) Pandemic.

One of the co-founders is a little worried about some of the people not checking in right now. And seeing as I share these concerns and have asked for and obtained permission, this post includes the link to those concerns in order to boost the signal.

Response choices left to you in our shared audiences.

The pharmacy I registered with e-mailed me to get my medical details. The button for appointment-booking leads to a page where the supposedly available dates...are apparently full up already.

Oh well...
