Toronto! Show up to vote for your next mayor on October 26th! Or I "won't" hunt you down! This is not a threat! Yay!

Happy Friday, I just found out I wasn't cut from a movie I shot two years ago that's coming out later this month 🥳 It's truly all an actor could ever wish for!

Baseball players being paid to do sports betting commercials while other baseball players are being federally charged for sports betting is, uh, definitely a choice

Every Brad Bradford endorsement is like, "Toronto used to be a utopia with zero problems. Now it is only fit for the most violent of rats, where sentient crack pipes murder you in dark alleys and feral child gangs feast on the Lululemons of my yoga mom group. Brad will fix this. I live in Whitby."

"Oh my GOD, is that a CAT??!" I ask my cat every single time he walks into the room, every single day, for the past eleven years. He does not answer, for he does not know, but I hope he appreciates my enthusiasm

I have a dear friend whose OSAP got pulled because of the Ford government and now they can't finish a course that would have helped their career and, by extension, their community. I really can't describe the level of vitriol I have for this fucker. He needs to go. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I think if I were a baseball reliever tasked with coming in and preserving a lead and I gave up a home run I would just straight-up ugly cry right there on the mound

I was lying in bed thinking about money last night, as one does, and comparing my joe job's salary to my basic monthly expenses, and I genuinely don't know how people who live alone can save money in this city without living like a monk who has decided to become the most emblematic monk in history.

I turned off my earbuds today just in time to overhear a gentleman on the subway in the middle of saying, "... but you have to vote because the alternative is so, SO much worse" and the way I immediately knew he was talking about Brad Bradford

It's always so sad to me when I see Hollywood actors from a movie reunite a decade plus later and the men have aged totally normally and the women look exactly the same, because god FORBID they're allowed to get old. I'm so glad I've never been successful enough to have to deal with that nonsense.

Every article I read about the Toronto housing market being down still feels like "Good news! This house with no roof that was 2 million dollars is now only 1.9 million dollars and it has half a roof now!" and every time one is published I fear i am slowly growing more insane

Doug Ford has a series of commercials out right now encouraging people to go into the trades, and in one of them the man states that he originally wanted to become a music teacher but instead went into a job that impacts and helps his community and ohhh BOY do I have fucking feelings about this

I cannot watch Gausy's post-game interview. It makes me too sad. Someone call the Pope and ask if he can extend the Almighty's benevolence past the White Sox winning the World Series and into getting Kevin onto a team that gives him some damn run support

"What should we do about that rusty car?" "Put a sign on it." "Just one?" "Do what you think is best."

Whoo boy, where to start? So, in the foreground Brad Bradford is standing at a lectern on which is affixed a campaign sign. The sign reads" Real Change = $300 of your water bill." But that's the last normal thing about this photo. In the background is a old, rusted out car. Any campaign PR person will know that doesn't look good. So what did they do? They put 2 campaign signs on it. Not in front of it to hide if from the camera...on it. There are also 2 dudes in the background. They look sad and angry.

This was the most fun game of the year. I genuinely forgot what team we were playing because it didn't matter - Scherzer was going to take them down anyway. 114 pitches on three days' rest. What a guy. Anyway, now I'm crying again thanks Blue Jays

I've been lucky enough to have been to some great baseball games, but that right there was top three. Max Scherzer is a beast at an age where most players are retired. Game 162 of a season where we had no hope of making it but people still showed up. New kids ushering in a new era. I'm so happy.
