30 years ago on a flight from Brazil to Toronto the plane did a spectacular altitude drop in severe turbulence. I was strapped in then and I have worn my seatbelt faithfully ever since. You are asking for a broken neck if you don't.

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

Toni Morrison would have been 94 today and would have had a whole of a lot to say about what we're living through. Still her voice bellows down the hallway of time with what she did say 20 years ago, so hauntingly timely now:

At a hockey game this weekend, Canadians loudly booed the US national anthem—and then turned around and proudly sang their own with full-throated joy. The contrast couldn’t have been clearer.

Elon Musk is requesting all the IRS data so he can see all the taxes everybody has paid. One of the first things the Nazis did was go through Social Security data and find everybody who had never worked. They then murdered every disabled person who hadn't.

What is it about watching a 4-year-old tell a 78-year-old with the maturity of a 2-year-old to "shut up and go away" that is SO deeply satisfying?

Picked up a rental car yesterday and the guy at the counter said he had a Tesla for me. I told him nah, it’s not a look I’m going for. He laughed and said “yeah, everyone’s been saying the same thing”. Gave me a Toyota hybrid with a bit of a wink.

As of this moment, Canadians are united as one in defiance of tyranny. Americans? Most Americans have no idea that the idiot monster they elected because they forgot to vote has started a massive trade war that will upend their lives.

A few yrs ago, there were some tech difficulties during the US anthem at a Leafs game. The Canadian crowd finished the anthem themselves. Normally, we don’t tolerate booing the Star-Spangled Banner. You know u fucked up when a Canadian crowd boos your anthem, & the rest of Canada nods in approval.
