Note the TPOH shirt. As it happens, Odds and The Pursuit of Happiness are playing Toronto at the Phoenix (yes, it’s still open) this Friday! www.ticketweb.ca/event/tpoh-o...

Genuinely one of the best things, EVER. Twenty-four minutes of someone recreating "Don't You Want Me", by the Human League - it's absolutely essential viewing www.youtube.com/watch?v=JR4W...

A lot of people who’ve posted that “I don’t know how to explain that you should care about other people” quote need to know that they should care about other people. I want my tax dollars to go to paying for insulin for the most vile MAGA asshole you ever heard of; that’s part of “everyone”.

So I took a daytrip to Cobourg, where I lived/worked for a year after uni! Got butter tarts, Mary Brown's & a Kawartha Dairy milkshake. Loyalist cuisine. 🤷🏼‍♀️ ☺️

When The Trade happened, I was home from university. I walked around my old elementary school track (well, trail, really) and cried. The business of sports hits everyone at some point. Years later, when he went to settle with the family in Arizona, it felt like the beginning of the end...

We all get how long this took, but vote for a country where this can still be done at all.

The RCMP are still silent on this file and its a disgrace. kitchener.citynews.ca/2025/01/27/o...

Real* baseball. #BlueJays

Someone started a Petition to the Prime Minister to strip Muskrat of his Canadian Citizenship and I’m here for it. @charlieangus104.bsky.social www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Get arrested preventing DOGE goons from entering public buildings, get arrested going into public buildings to find out what DOGE goons are doing, get arrested on the floor during confirmation votes to protest the rubber stamping of unqualified candidates

Tonight in Maple Creek, SK, two hockey teams are going to take to the ice to continue a four-decade tradition. It is a hockey game between the Nekaneet First Nation and local ranchers. Let's learn more about The Battle of the Little Big Puck! 📸Anthony Janzen 🧵1/7

I tried to pet every breed of dog at the Westminster Dog Show. The resulting video: 12 minutes of extremely good dogs 132 dogs pet 5 face licks 2 belly rubs Me saying “BEAUTIFUL dog” at least 59 times youtu.be/nOzLZH29wFc?...

I get almost everyone in not-Toronto can hate Toronto and wouldn’t mind Doug fucking us up as much as he has, but the Greenbelt thing is a reminder he doesn’t give a fuck about you either and he doesn’t pay attention to you unless he can take advantage of you. So again… SmartVoting.ca!

Canada just won the 4 Nations Hockey tournament. But congrats to all those who took part, especially Finland and Sweden.

Also quality curation by me. 👍🏻

Connor McDavid wins it in OT

THAT’s more like it.

Oh hey, I voted today at the same place as Norm! 👍🏼 Go vote in your place, whatever it is!

He was my hero when I was a kid, but I gotta say I don’t think he cares.

Hey, Ontario! How about we #VoteToEndGBV? Early voting started today and election day is next week, so don't delay!

I mean yay? but also welcome back four-hour games! 😅

This opposition tells you a lot about how often airlines destroy wheelchairs.

Wow, great piece about a hell of a life and a hell of a dude. Never saw the Kim Coates drop coming.

Overcrowded hospitals, insufficient staff, increasing patient fees. Alison Motluk provides an in-depth look at the past seven years of health care in Ontario. thelocal.to/hallway-heal...

His work is done. 🖕🏼

the Amazon deal is going to dump a lot of low-grade crap on us, but I still think "James Bond movies are no longer necessary" might be a more convincing argument if we weren't on the 40th anniversary of the 007 movie where the villain was a Silicon Valley weirdo genetically engineered by Nazis

I posted a copy of the 3 minute version of my speech from yesterday (with citations) if anyone is interested. Feel free to steal from it if you want! (also, this is literally less than half of the Nazi shit they're currently pulling)

From my recent experience, the police took me to the local city jail (credit to HBPD, they were polite and professional the entire time), where they searched me and put me in a cell. Then I had to wait while they figured out what I was getting charged with (disrupting an assembly)

I need abled people to understand that breaking someone's wheelchair is like breaking your legs. Both of them. They want to get away with breaking people's legs.

hi, are you doomscrolling? You should order your free Covid-19 tests while the federal program still exists: special.usps.com/testkits

I’m proud to say I actually saw this (and the park, such as it was) randomly on a drive on my own when I visited PEI with my birth-mother a few years ago. No idea it existed, and there it was.

I think the biggest problem the media has is not being able to differentiate between “what is annoying” and “what is evil”

I can’t believe I had to unsubscribe from @chrisgloverndp.bsky.social emails bc he’s my guy, but the Dem-style spam his people are sending has gotten on my last nerve. DUDE, IT DIDN’T WORK FOR THEM. CUT IT OUT. Just link to smartvoting.ca and don’t say anything stupid. kthxbai 👍🏻

If you are unable to vote in person, request assistance to vote. You can schedule a home visit by an election official by Feb 26. Let's be good neighbours & offer a ride, provide info on assistance for voting. The most vulnerable in our communities are are at risk of not having a vote. #OnPoli

I know it’s so basic to do the “not on my bingo card” at this point, but my alma mater doing shit like WVU????

Every year, there’s at least a day or two where I think about getting snowshoes. Then I’m like, I have the Smallest Apartment Ever wtf would I do with snowshoes the rest of the year, and then I don’t get them. That time has stretched into a week this year. #Toronto
