How Willow feels about this weather

I think American media, despite starting to sell it, is mostly kinda underselling the level and widespread nature of the fury. via @zackbeauchamp.bsky.social www.vox.com/politics/403...

I needed to find a statistic on the proportion of radicalized farm operators in the U.S. for a paper I’m revising, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the USDA report on that very topic is still available online. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time until they pull that report too.

I really do appreciate every single American who stands against the “annexing Canada” rhetoric. Thank you. At the same time, I think about this anecdote about what happened after Canada won 4 Nations basically all the time. www.nytimes.com/athletic/615...

The number of times in the last few weeks I’ve said to Zack “They’re not actually going to invade us… right?” 😢

I liked this interview with @zackbeauchamp.bsky.social about how Canadians feel about the U.S. www.vox.com/politics/403...

As you may know, I've been living in Canada since August. In this interview, I tried to convey something I don't think Americans quite appreciate — how profoundly *angry* Canadians are, and the danger a US-Canadian rupture poses to our future prosperity and security www.vox.com/politics/403...

When was the last time the Leafs outplayed a good team?

Matthews having more of an impact this period

A country doomed to buttery Chardonnay.

If I was pregnant in Toronto, and it was suggested to me that I move to North Carolina for a little bit for my husband’s hockey team’s benefit, there is no world where I would agree to that. Being pregnant in a red state would be terrifying.

Zack just decided to make poutine tonight and put in these little Canadian flags 🇨🇦 Maybe I’ll make a proud Canadian of him yet.

Looks like someone took it upon themselves to update the product descriptions in at least one Toronto location. (Via Reddit: www.reddit.com/r/ontario/co... )

The ADL is a disgrace.

Trump needs to stop these tariffs for the sole reason that people are starting to believe that Doug Ford is a good leader, and I cannot have that

I love Mitchy and I want him to stay. As a fan base, it would be great if we didn’t run him out of town for exercising his rights as a player.

I don’t think there has been a day since I moved back to Canada that I haven’t explicitly felt grateful to be back in Canada

Listening to radio ads right now is like "Canadians are strong. Canadians are tough. Canadians never back down. Canadians deserve the best. That's why at Bob's Lube Garage, we know your tire lube should smell like poutine and Lake Erie fish,"

I really wish that more of the people I like on Twitter would come over to Bluesky. I’m not using Twitter anymore and I want to follow them!

Oh my god 😥 www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

Waiting impatiently for the Leafs breaking trade news

My father, Tom Beauchamp, has died at age 85. He was a truly extraordinary man: a giant of modern philosophy, a moral paragon who stood up against segregation, and the kindest dad I could have hoped for. The Washington Post has published a wonderful tribute: www.washingtonpost.com/obituaries/2...

If there are Team USA players who didn’t like the “51st state” stuff, would’ve been nice to hear it

Put a tariff on that, motherfuckers. 🇨🇦

I love you McDavid I love you Canada thank you thank you thank you

Did Team USA take amphetamines before this game? What the hell

If I was at the Canada-U.S. game I would be pulling a muscle booing the U.S. anthem
