Anonymous: The more I try to rationalize the Globe's endorsement of a Harperless Conservative Party, the more my brain hurts. Do they expect Harper to step down if he wins the election because one newspaper said they don't like him? If they think the Tories deserve another mandate but Harper doesn't, who do they think was running the party for the last nine years?
Just so everyone knows, CNN this morning DELETED their post-debate poll that showed Bernie Sanders winning the debates (81% in support of Sanders to Clinton’s 14%). Afterwards, it posted a series of articles stating that Clinton clearly won the debate and that framed Sanders as “just appealing to Sanders fans”. CNN is in no way a legitimate news outlet, it is as much propaganda as Fox News. Be aware of this fact and stay woke.
When white Canadians say “stop talking about American politics, we need to talk about Canadian politics” but haven’t reblogged this, haven’t talked about this, and continue to exist in a vacuum of silencing their First Nations / Métis / Inuit Indigenous conversation, I wonder what their motives really are. Stand up and speak out.

Some other crap that we dug up on Mister Wornoff:
The BMAN, a history in parody.
Barnabas Wornoff has
been doing parody and political spoofs for quite some time…. Quite some time.
It started on his first
show, The Super Popular Show, a sketch comedy and animated show he created with
friends straight after college. The show featured Paul Martin and Ernie Eves in
live action skits that his brother Gordie wrote. (Star of Discovery Channels
Junk Raiders)
Later he made a 3 part
feature length cartoon about the arts, artists and politicians of his home town
of Peterborough. There he entwined over 100 real people from town in a
hilarious cartoon starring the now defamed Conservative MP Dean Delmastro as
the super villain who tried to rid Peterborough of all it’s arts, artists and
muscians and turn it into the worlds largest used car lot.
Wornoff then turned his
spoof goggles on Mayor Rob ford in his first foray into Apps, helping create
the breakout app hit “Stay Mayor.” Featuring a cartoon Rob Ford running away
from the media, dodging crack pipes, and reporters while he tried to stay mayor
at all costs.
His latest cartoon
“Truth or Daring” will be “his finest bit of spoofery yet,” he claims. Back
with co-writer Dan Smith, Wornoff and Smith craft a funny, yet biting look at
what could happen if the leadership race comes down to a tie Monday night.
I work sick all the time, you just have to do what you can do. When a doctor accidentally cut a blood vessel from my heart, and I almost died on the operating table during a routine operation, my hands were in casts and I couldn’t move, I still dictated a script to my husband to turn in.
I’m not saying ‘muscle through it,’ because that’s not always possible. I have had times where a script was behind because mentally I wasn’t there for whatever reason. But I always feel better HAVING written than worrying about NOT having written. So for me, it actually helps.
Also, write the pages out of order if you have to, write the sequence you KNOW or really WANT to write, save the rest for when you feel better and can concentrate. Good luck!
Anonymous: I never realized how beautiful trudeau really is?? like holy shit if his political career doesnt work out he could be a model or an actor.... like he and his wife are so hot yall know that theyre children are gonna be.. blessed with money and good looks, why cant I be his child.
Parks & Rec, Pretty Little Liars and the Fast & Furious films all exist in the same universe
And SCANDAL WTF
Oh jeez, SCANDAL….
….and BATTLESHIP too, apparently. It’s a goddamn conspiracy
Oh god. He’s on REVENGE too. How deep does this rabbit-hole go….
Oh my god. DEXTER.
THE ACTUAL NEWS
I read an interview with this guy (who is a real news anchor), and he said he told his acting agent that he is ONLY interested in parts where he plays a new anchor. This is no coincidence. This is by design.
All-candidates meeting and rumour has it @markstrahl will be a no-show in his home riding. #canadavotes #chilliwackvotes #cdnpoli #cdnpolitics #stillundecided
Friends give friends all of the information they need to make an informed choice and support them, regardless of the choice that they choose to make. So yes, friends do let friends vote for Harper, not that I will be.
Anonymous: I think what bothers me most about Trudeau is that people assume just because his dad was "good" at what he did that he'll be just like him.
Stephen Harper did not renew the existing health accord and replaced it with a different funding model (tying it to GDP instead of equal payments). Which is going to create inequality in our healthcare system; the rich will get lots of money and the poor provinces will get less.
Anonymous: When did you seriously start writing comics (with the intent to publish)? How do you overcome self-doubt when it comes to working creatively? Any advice to writers out there with little confidence in their art abilities/just getting started?
Hey anon. I think I started going to shows and soliciting publishers when I was around 20; it took about 3 or 4 years of that before I made it into anything.
To be honest, I still carry a ton of self-doubt about my art; the validation I’ve received from the comics community is wonderful and appreciated, but hard to internalize. So you might be in it for the long haul with creative insecurity. My best advice for someone starting out would be to draw and write quickly, produce as much work as you can, and try not to worry about how much further you have to go. You’re probably better than you think.
But since fetuses already knowing advanced medical sciences aren’t a thing, I figured I’d provide some more valid alternatives:
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of someone who has a “black sounding” name and gets their school application thrown out?
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of someone who accidentally becomes pregnant where abortion is illegal or very difficult to access and they are forced to quit the sciences to raise the child?
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of a fat person whose credibility in the medical field is destroyed because they are assumed to be “unhealthy” and a hypocrite?
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of a person who starves to death?
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of someone who is murdered by drones or police?
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of someone who is raped and cannot continue their research due to trauma?
What if the cure for cancer lives in the mind of someone who is killed in a shooting because some below average teen boy couldn’t get laid?
I mean if you wanna talk about real life actual things that prevent scientific advancement look no further than capitalism, misogyny, ableism, racism, violence, oppression. But I guess that doesn’t allow you to control people’s bodies and push your gross agenda.
