Hamiltonian (the city, not the mathematician) and social democrat (the philosophy, not the band). This is the Mets' year, maybe. He/him.

Giving up 18 and 12 to Ms. Rachel in the NBA celebrity game. She's splashing jumpers from the logo, and at the apex of each she's ignoring the ball and waving at my family in the ninth row with "hiiiiiii, friends!" She doesn't have a single dark pink sweat stain anywhere. Mr. Aron is booing me.

Struggling badly at 1-9 in PACWEST play, then the remaining seven players on the team also quit after her postgame comments calling out "these little girls who can't even out-rebound Malaspina"

If the Mayor needs more education, she’s free to go out, on her own time, and get it, not take up more time from Councillors and staff hearing from lobbyists and proponents who could have shown up on June 16, taken their 5 minutes each, as was granted to everyone else, and made their case.

Just days after voting in favour of creating an Interim Control Bylaw, the Mayor unilaterally decided an education and training session was in order.

I say it often but once again: By granting them borrowing privileges and protecting their privacy, public libraries afford children a form of civic standing and respect that has few parallels in our “free” society, which mostly treats children as chattel. Vociferously defend public libraries. 📚

See, Rob Manfred?? The fish acknowledges the opponent's preparation and accepts they have to change their approach.
Some awful Baby Shark book with a fish character complimenting the shark on being so good at hide and seek and the shark answering, "well, you DO always hide in that hole"

@boxscore.email love this. Friendly suggestions for nostalgia/verisimilitude - add ERA to probable pitchers, abbreviate longer names in boxscores (Jim Walewander -> Wlwndr)

A cynic might even say that Pelley preferred a lack of competence. A highly recommended, competent, successful GM would command and demand autonomy. A newbie whose buddy got him the job and a washout yes man are much easier for Pelley and, by extension, the human ghoul Ed Rogers, to control

The Leafs have two regulation wins in their last 20 games. They're playing at a 38-point pace since Jan. 12. At that rate, they'd end the year around 73-74 points, which would be fourth last a year ago. They'd have to go 4-13-1 or worse the rest of the way. It looks possible.

Clapping my flippers together and honking like a harbor seal when a Super Bowl ad for a condiment or gambling app featuring two celebrities unexpectedly reveals a third celebrity as its punchline. Bouncing a ball around on my snout. My wife has to throw me a herring to get me to calm down.

Incredibly important story about a very famous and very bad Hamiltonian who did some truly awful things and will probably never suffer for it. He has thankfully begun to edge away. I hope his rancid involvement with this haunts him.

It is no wonder that the original investigations, such as they were, went nowhere. The players throughout, from the time each decided to rape E.M. through this very day, have struck resolutely throughout to a strategic script whose purpose is protecting sexual violence and coercion by faking consent

I don't think she has helped develop any policy at all in two and a half years of her mayoralty; she's absent other than as an up-or-down vote and not doing a terrific job of that either. It's time for her to at least do that part.
