From the Canadian Encyclopedia:

From Britannica:

Americans have no idea just how pissed off Canadians are about Trump.

Like, the tariff thing got us mad, but the 51st state thing? It's got us seething.

Liberals, progressives, even most of the Conservatives are all united on this.

We're sharing lists of Canadian-owned alternatives to American brands.

We're cancelling tourist trips to the US (one lady in a news story said she cancelled a trip to Florida for six and doesn't regret losing $1,300 due to the cancellation).

And if we have to go to the US, such as the couple who's selling their California home? We're taking Canadian flights instead.

Some travel agencies have seen as much as a 40% decrease in bookings of flights from Canada to the US, and it's estimated it'll affect at least $2.1 billion dollars of the travel industry alone (not counting the tourism side of things like Disney trips and hotel bookings).

I've also heard of people from the Commonwealth cancelling trips to the US to visit Canada instead, and the same from people in Europe.

British University Issues Trigger Warning on Greek Mythology

"Women should just be okay with reading about brutal sexual violence against women because it's a classic that's thousands of years old" is such a privileged Man perspective.

Just because it doesn't bother you to read about it doesn't mean everyone will be okay with it too -- especially not people who have personally experienced such violence in real life.

Saying "Hey, heads up, ancient depictions of how women were treated -- especially during war -- can get super duper gnarly and horrific. Take a mental health break when you need it" is just being kind and realistic.

When writing a capstone essay for my undergrad about Indian Residential Schools I had to take constant breaks because of the way kids were treated according to the Truth and Reconciliation Council's findings. It has to do with empathy, not weakness. Some people can read about a kid getting flogged in front of their peers in order to be an example for anyone thinking of trying to escape, but I can't.

Now imagine going into a class that talks about that kind of thing constantly but having no warning about it. If anything, it's irresponsible to NOT have the warning.

The Swedish commentators about Norway:

The song is about that no one is perfect and that you can be a queen if you feel like it... And that have worked out just fine for Camilla Parker-Bowles.
