At times like this, I guess all you can do is laugh.
Here's the new video, gang! Woohoo!! I wanted to make sure I could stand behind the first version anyone would see, so I'd say the video is 95% complete – all I've got left is colour grading, and adding music + some minor ...

2024-03-22 18:37:25 +0000 UTC View PostHey, folks! I'm contemplating where to turn my attention after wrapping up this current video. At any given point, I have several pages of notes on videos I'd like to make. Most of them will never see the light of day, but here are a handful from the list that I think could be worth exploring. 2024-02-15 16:45:52 +0000 UTC View Post
Over the past few months, "the gender identity debate" has broken into the Canadian mainstream for the first time. Canada's nascent gender-critical movement is not purely a pseudo-feminist one or a Christian one – instead, it's a bewildering coalition of feminists, edgy populists, the Christian...
2024-02-14 05:39:12 +0000 UTC View PostHey gang! I hope you've had some rest over the holiday season, and your year's gotten off to a good start. I have to admit, I've been living the dream this past week, mostly just... hangin' out. Playing some games, watching new stuff (read on for recommendations), and tending to friendships I str...

“From police robots to AI avatars, the tech industry uses human empathy as a tool for evil.”
We did it gang!! No clue how I turned this around in 5 weeks, but I’m so glad to have it out before the holidays. Truly hope you enjoy. 💜

My new video is about how the tech industry uses our empathy against us, and creates a less trusting society. It needs some polish, and you'll notice a few missing graphics, but this is basically it! Hope you enjoy :)

My next video is called "Is AI Making Us Less Human?" and it's about the erosion of trust that's started since AI-generated speech/images have become convincing. I deepfaked myself, it took an hour and cost $30, and I can't stop thinking about it. Messed up, dude.
Enjoy!!! Full vid...

Polished it up, added a bit of new stuff! Good time to check it out if you missed the early access.
I have an agreement with a sponsor to release one more video before the end of the year, and… I’m kinda stumped. I have a few ideas, but nothing that can be completed in 6 weeks! So I gue...

I made this video to process my feelings about some health complications I’ve had since getting a gender-affirming surgery in 2021. I noticed most discussions of trans regret are simple tragedies, which don’t pave a path forward for the people experiencing it. That isn’t true to my experien...
2023-11-11 02:28:14 +0000 UTC View PostI cannot lie to you, gang, I’ve tried to write a poetic prod diary twice this month, and each time, by the time I’ve neared the end, the things I said no longer felt true. This iteration is less cohesive than the others, but I don't think I'm pretending to know everything, which I take as a g...

Look what just came in the mail!! Pretty funky that it’s a mirror in there.
The idea of displaying this thing has me a little embarrassed, like it feels showy and I know my friends will poke fun at me every time they see it? 😅 But I think putting it somewhere really goofy will help. 2023-10-16 18:31:36 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey gang, it's been a while! An hour from now (at 7PM EST), my partner Vic & I will be going live to celebrate the channel reaching the absolutely wild 100 000 subscriber threshold. We'll be baking a celebratory coffee cake, chatting about whatever people want to chat about, and hopefully rai...

The longest, most ambitious video I've ever made – a pretty comprehensive look back at a mass movement that promised to change the world, and then, well, didn't. I gave this one my all. I hope you get something out of it.
I'll be editing right down to the wire, so this version isn't final...
2023-09-17 20:44:08 +0000 UTC View PostHey folks!! I'm writing to you from one of the busiest months of my life, but one that's been completely invigorating so far. I'll start with the most imminent project:
After a rough morning last week, I found myself wandering down Montreal's longest street, Gouin boulevard. It's a pretty boring walk – car-centric and residential – but taking aimless walks in not-especially-walkable places has been my main mental he...

I'm thrilled to share this article I wrote for the new issue of Maisonneuve Magazine. It's a review of NEOTOKYO, a self-described "cyberpunk noodle bar" that just opened in downtown Montreal. The restaurant is mediocre – it's basically one big Instagram backdrop, with the food a secondary ...

Happy to get this video to you a full week ahead of YouTube! Everything is finished, except the music – that'll help with the pacing and make things more emotionally resonant, if you'd rather wait for the full release.
Hey everyone, I hope you’re well. I want to update you on how my new projects are coming – and also, reading this back, I guess I wanted to vent a little? Lol, whoops:
My next video is tentatively titled “Why People Are Trans (& why we’ll never know)”. It’s ...
