Good Morning #Canada
Did you know that a Dodecahedron is a 12-letter name for any 12-sided shape. And did you also know that on this day in 1962, the Canadian Government decreed that our dodecahedron nickel was decadent and that round was right. Pre-1962 nickels are now pretty worth a nickel, but a coin in "mint condition" has been known to fetch a few pennies more.
Have you noticed there are more coin buying events in your neighbourhoods over the past few years? Some of that activity is driven by buyers taking advantage of people wanting to sell old jewelry, collectibles, or jars of coins that are sitting in the back of drawers or closets. But the rise of digital transactions, particularly increased during COVID when no one wanted to touch your infected money, has increased the collectible value of coins and, in some cases, the actual metal value exceeds the face value.

History of trans musician Wendy Carlos (2/3)
I learned about this incredible woman after coming across an old video with her on YouTube the other week (see part 3 of the thread for link).
And I thought it’s important to share given that trans history is being actively erased from public consciousness these days, and right-wing politicians / pundits are trying to claim that trans people are invading and ruining culture. In reality, people like Carlos have been here this whole time, creating the very culture that these jerks claim is being ruined by “woke”.
This is also telling. Carlos said about the public’s reaction to her transition, back in the 80s:
"The public turned out to be amazingly tolerant or, if you wish, indifferent ... There had never been any need of this charade to have taken place. It had proven a monstrous waste of years of my life."
