Happy New Year Kate et al!
The sanity and solidarity of (most) of the commentators on here has actually cheered me up a lot this year. Even the ones who are cheerfully urging the sacrifice of people I care about are informative, in their way. Thanks everyone.

Happy New Year, Kate!
Thanks for all the work that you do. I also really enjoy the high-level discourse that takes place in the comment section.
Best wishes to all for a joyful, safe new year!

Happy new year one and all. And here’s to Kate for babysitting one of only two comments sections that I actually visit and participate in. Major thanks as always to our host, who somehow manages to let people speak freely and keep the peace. It really is a fine line between clever and stupid.
Wishing the best for all of you.

“sanity and solidarity” in rough time? Here’s the complementary video-essay: Who We Really Are… When Everything Goes Wrong. Watching LSOO (this video-essay YT channel) is a spiritual healing for me, a good way to start 2021!
And as a “mise en bouche”, the author’s presentation:
In this dark and difficult year, the year that gave us so many reasons to be cynical, to become divided, to fall into despair, hopefulness isn’t exactly what’s on people’s minds. And yet, this is exactly what I set out to explore. Alas, no jolly take on my favorite Christmas films, but a real search for hope in the dark; a critical reflection on humanity in times of disaster.
Studying human responses in the wake of calamities revealed a lot of things; fear, pain, loss, but it also revealed something that is often overlooked, something that might just restore your faith in humanity (if only a little bit). So, as we move towards 2021, I figured it’s high time to try and rekindle the light, and to discuss who we really are… when everything goes wrong.

Thanks for another year Kate. Have been a daily reader for all but the first two of your 19 years. You must be close to setting some kind of record. How many blogs can there be out there with an unbroken string of daily posts as long as yours?

Happy New Year, Kate! and to all my fellow readers. You all help me keep in touch with the city with news and insights I couldn’t get elsewhere.

Happy New Year, Kate! Thanks for all your hardwork this year. This is far and away the best local news and opinion/analysis site for montreal.
