“I’ve been crying for the last hour…. I just want to spend a few more hours with these guys.” Such an antidote to toxic masculinity and true role model. www.mlb.com/bluejays/vid...

The 2025 #BlueJays will always be champions in my heart. I have never seen a team love each other like this and play the game with such joy. They picked up fans everywhere who were inspired by their uncommon bond and their incredible ability to play the game. Only love for these guys! #worldseries

And here I was worried the Jays wouldn’t have any runs left over after yesterday

#torontobluejays #yankees

Now I don’t want to take too much credit, but I think I did help manifest the #BlueJays win today. I had it in my head that they would score big in the first inning and never look back. You’re welcome. 🏟️⚾️😅 #mlbplayoffs #aleastchamps

Save Gazans from Genocide: Fix the Gaza TRV Program

Please sign and support these families' plea to the Canadian government to evacuate their family members who are facing starvation and death.

Isn't this supposed to be what we as Canadians are proud to do?

Carney calls Israel denying humanitarian aid in Gaza 'violation of international law'  | CBC News Prime Minister Mark Carney is calling for Israel’s control of aid distribution to be replaced amid reports of mass starvation in Gaza.

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

The Democratic Party Needs to Learn from Zohran Mamdani's Guts and Backbone Zohran Mamdani did something different, and it made all the difference.

"If people are shocked Mamdani could win, it’s because we’re so used to people’s votes not counting, and to powerful establishment politicians winning no matter what happens."

The @newyorker.com had a recent piece which said Mamdani had failed to create a coalition…

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
