CJ is very sad ⚾⚕️😷

So distorted and depraved that, when my neighbour's son (who is soon to return to Canada after visiting TN for 4 months), has announced he's now interested in "following Christianity", I am actually devastated.

"It's as easy as washing your keys!"

#longCOVID is a national security threat. Specifically to readiness, via the recruitment necessary to replace COVID-related attrition, and via attrition of the pool that recruits can be drawn from.

The push to hide COVID harms by those who failed to contain it is a danger to all of us.

Elections matter and Ontario voters need to vote for change because Ford is destroying everything

So that when you wash your pants your keys get done at the same time and you never have to remember to wash your keys? Genius.

Good for you. I had been trying to teach my folks how to briefly hold their breath (they also have facial skin cancers that need treatment for eg.) but Dad figured it wouldn't be a problem for such a short minute or two. 😭

Ikr?! In fact, I'm pretty sure I just bought some for $20 on Monday. (I know I bought some. I'm pretty sure they were $20. Lol) This District Drop came out because "these moved fast last time". So the reward for that is them jacking up the price? F that.

That's all I could think of all game. That they can play at all with the threats that their families and countrymen are trying to endure. And that they have to go back to an island that is teetering. I had similar grief for so many of the other countries. I really needed everyone to win. 😔

Weren't Blue Jays "District Drops" tickets $20 just 2 days ago? 🤔

In all seriousness, I wonder if it is more for easy temperature regulation. (for your cat!)

I remember (with unrelenting cringe even after all these years) my Grade 10 English teacher (female, thank God) mentioning to us 'girls' that we needed to really look after 'ventilation' down there. Perhaps your puddytat also had the same teacher.

Belated happy international women’s day!

"...to fuel our friends and power paycheques" because those are phrases that normal everyday people use regularly.

Started the Canada game laaaate and stuck with it to the end even though, in my gut, I knew the outcome. As a result I went to bed about 3 AM, embarrassed & angry. And, just like that, I appear to have lost interest in watching what I've been looking fwd to for 4 months. 😔 The WS damage is real.

Back on their bullshit, I presume?

!lol

😔😭

Contrary to the headline here*, it appears there will actually be more than "just one". 🤞

*excellent job on the (unintentional?) clickbait, Tod.

Hopefully after he breathes again he'll realize the easiest fix to that is to hand her the cash and present it as an upgrade. Same as why cash is such a better gift than a store-constrained gift card.

The fart?

You're giving a presentation to the UN General Assembly?!!

The fans watching the Great Britain vs Italy WBC game at Daikin Park being forced to listen to "Deep in the Heart of Texas" in the 7th inning is kinda sending me.

Nah. Gonna need you USians to admit from whence you come. As a Canadian, I'm no longer willing to lend you an identity we are doing our damndest to defend and keep. It ain't perfect but y'all made your bed and are going to have to lie in it. Lying ABOUT it is not how you start fixing it.

🙏

There's a Toronto accent?! Do you know of someone (famous enough) with this that I could find a recording of?

Happy International Women's Day.

It will never cease to amaze me how much Yonder Alonzo sounds like Alek Manoah. Is there such a thing as a Miami accent?

Heh. Look at that. The clock on my stove is right again. That's a shame. I used to get regular joy from the relief that followed the panic when I forgot I hadn't changed it.

Catching up on the overnight WBC. Two thoughts:

- Hate seeing Kikuchi struggle. Gives me 'poor baby' feels.

- Japanese baseball spectating is not for migraine sufferers...or early mornings.

- Bonus thought: A real joy to see some people in the crowd still acknowledging this ongoing pandemic. 😷

...get out there. "Only old people with med issues are affected by C19." They both got C19 after Dad unmasked for an ID photo at Costco. ⬇️⬇️ since then. My fault. I can't win. Now they're sad, lonely and cognitively impaired anyway. The responsibility for all of this is very heavy.
