My mission is to provide value here and good quality meals to the community. And I have successfully done it for 29 years, and I hope to continue this thing with the pizza concept.

Street sweeps are a costly, ineffective response to inequitable polices

Framing this decision as a threat to private property stokes fear and unfairly scapegoats First Nations

It can be easy to forget how many silent battles people are fighting.

There is a reason our bodies are wired for sleep, and there’s a wisdom in choosing to rest before we hit collapse, and not after.

We must recognize that being apolitical reinforces systems of oppression.

POLITICS OF SILENCE

It’s a really special thing of, you all are in a space together, and you decide to believe the story that you’re watching.

A Squishmallow-cuddling partner is a no-go

I’ve been drinking hot lattes again — ‘cause it’s fall — which is so cute for me. The other day, I spilled my latte on my favourite white shirt! It was tragic — but it got me thinking. Why waste a good white shirt because of a stain? Lean into it, am I right? That’s like fashion 101. So, divas, that’s the first outfit! Put on your cutest white outfit, head to toe. Do your hair like you normally do, and buy a hot coffee! Then, spill it all on your head. Actually, you might want to wait for it to cool down slightly first. Beauty does not need to be pain. Babes, you will look SO HOT rolling into class with wet, sticky hair, and such a dramatic stain on your whole outfit. Everyone will look at you. Everyone will be thinking, “Who ARE they?” A fashion diva, duh.

Think pumpkins. Think maze fields. Think tractors. That’s right, our outfit here is . . . Farmer! But not, like, sexy farmer. Like, dirty, muddy overalls, boots covered in something suspicious, straw hat that’s been passed down through several generations, flannel shirt that shouldn’t see the light of day, kind of farmer. You have to lean into this look and get with it, otherwise you won’t pull it off, babes! Let’s be real; authenticity is so in right now. Everyone will gag, for one reason or another.

Our next outfit is an avant-garde carnivorous bat. It’s practically spooky season! But not your typical bat — everyone and their grandma has seen a bat before. Let’s take it to the next level. I’m talking leather boots with studs. Black tights. Use a super flowy black skirt as a TOP and wear it like a poncho. The effect is gorg. Wear a black choker around your neck. Then, wear a black fringe skirt, and put on a big, grungy, black belt. Then, go to your local taxidermy shop and get a fish, frog, and mouse. Loop them through the holes of your belt so they hang nicely and move with your fringe skirt. Oh, but Noeka, why do I need dead animals on my skirt?! Because that’s what carnivorous bats eat, duh. I said it was avant-garde. Accessorize as you wish, just make sure to be bold.

Our final fit for this inspo is for the sleepy guys. Do you ever have those fall days when you wish you could stay in bed? I made this outfit for you, babes! It turns out that pillows are actually really easy to wear when you have long necklaces. Just put on all of your necklaces, stuff your pillow in the space behind it, and have a cozy place to rest everywhere you go. Tease your hair and use hairspray to stick it on the pillow vertically, so that it’s like an optical illusion. People will see the pillow standing up, and see your hair spread all over it, and they’ll be like, “Oh my god, are they sleepwalking???” Hahaha — but you’re just being a diva! Bonus points if you have an Ebeneezer Scrooge pajama set.
