Canada’s News Burrito 🌯 media, culture, politics (via Toronto)

This is a small Toronto-based newsletter that has been doing independent news for many years—even before Substack existed, I think. It was an "independent news outlet" longer before it became cool.

Reality's Last Stand

By Colin Wright

Reality’s Last Stand is a publication by evolutionary biologist Colin Wright dedicated to free speech, science, and reality.

Colin Wright and I worked together at Quillette. And I'm delighted to see that he's continuing to write about biology and the science of sex differences now that he's on Substack.
