“There has always been the ‘Kyle punches drywall’ joke. It is one of those things in pop culture that popped up. Kyles, in general, tend to be short-tempered, and when they are displeased, instead of harming others, they just break something.”

This morning my new Coast colleague @martin_bauman said he's working on a story about blood-sucking bugs, so naturally I've been cracking myself up all day with "tick talk" puns. But now the story is out, and it's just terrifying.

This little glitch where @Twitter “Incestimated” its own user stats is a brilliant Freudian slip. Thanks for the useful new word, universe
The stock symbol has messed with the article preview to give us “incestimated,” which sounds like the kind of insult that would get Musk into another libel suit

Helping bring @snolen's "What happened at Northwood?" story into the world was a major highlight of 2021 for me at The Coast. I'm thrilled and thankful @MagAwards agrees, nominating it as one of the best long longform features in Canada. It's in great company
A round of applause for the #NMA22 Long-Form Feature Writing: 6000+ nominees! @hakaimagazine @TheTyee @Lactualite @macleans @maisonneuvemag @TwitCoast @thewalrus @torontolife

One of the few remaining alt weeklies in Canada (and the place I got my first professional byline!) gets acquired. This appears to be a much better fit than the disastrous NOW deal in Toronto. I hope it works out for everyone.
