Agreed. Much nicer than the other night. I was worried it would get ugly in Boston but it seems not as bad as I worried

I am 🇺🇸 living in 🇨🇦, married to a 🇨🇦 with 3 kids who are both 🇺🇸 and 🇨🇦
We’ve got a spectrum of support from one team to the other, with our kids in between with varying enthusiasm lol
My youngest daughter did stand for both anthems, singing along to both (as best she could)

I’ve never ever heard it in my life. Not once. Local use is and will be Gulf of Mexico.

Yep. People here are distrustful of outsiders culturally. Been the case since the Acadians got kicked out of Canada and had to relocate there. Lots of identity associated with geographic place. That’s something Trump doesn’t get because he doesn’t actually know the people or the place

Redfish is my favorite fish. To catch, to cook, to eat. They aren’t too big but they fight hard. So much fun to fish. Almost as fun as eating them.

I mean, they get it as much as primary-aged kids can get it. They are excited, as Canadians, as the crowd sings the anthem. Nice moment. As American kids, though, the other anthem wasn’t so much. Expecting them to be able to rationalize as you and I do is too much.

Not asking questions. Just sharing how the first few moments landed with the kids in our 🇺🇸 / 🇨🇦 home

Canadian grocers usu carry it at a price of $9.99 - $12.99/lb.
At that price some people buy it. People like me. Who love catfish. But not most people.
Tariff concerns and impacts raise the price to 12.99-15.99/lb and they can’t sell enough at that price point to justify carrying it

It’s insane. These kids push her. Kick at her. Threaten to punch her.
Some of it happened in the parking lot in front of their parents.
The GF of one of the girl’s dads said, “now, honey, what would jesus say about you talking like that?”
And that was IT.

In #onted teachers are being brutalized and terrorized. Nothing is being done. This harassment and violence went on ALL day today. Nobody did anything.
A classroom vet of 25 years, in tough schools in the 🇺🇸 and 🇨🇦, and she’s utterly alone.
Supt. collects 180k/yr for nothing.

Watching a fellow classmate run around a room, tearing up your work and trashing your stuff upset those little ones so much. Thanks Kimiko. It’s been very hard on her.
