I know I I haven't watched baseball in a while, but I think the Jays lost because they fielded all these new guys. Where are Manny Lee and Kelly Gruber? I really think Rance Mulliniks should have been a part of the equation

It's wild to me that an NHLer, who happened to score a couple of goals one night, answered more media questions in one press conference than the Conservative leader had to in a month-long campaign. Media availability should be mandatory for all politicians across the political spectrum. #cdnpoli

Thanks as always for this transparency and honesty. I hope the people who have suddenly become fanatical armchair fiscal watchdogs take the time to read and understand the complex story of how this all happened.

In reality they haven't given us anything. It's a Provincial project supported by Federal $. It's not even the City's money to redirect. I agree we need better transit but robbing another transit project after tens of millions has already been spent seems unwise.

Upper governments provide captial for infrastructure, but not operating costs. The cost of the bus is a small fraction of what it takes to get that bus on the road. The operator, fuel, insurance, maintenance, etc are local expenses. In any case, LRT is mass transit, buses are a bandaid. TL;DR: no

He lives in Mississauga. He couldn't even vote for himself. He didn't show up to the cable 14 debate, and now he'll be our MP. Not thrilled.

I voted. Notes on my experience: 1. It was busy, but fast. I was in and out in maybe 5 or 6 minutes 2. What a stark contrast to the Ontario provincial election in February. It felt like the vote mattered and I didn't have to leap a snow pile (🖕 Ford) 3. That school gym looked a lot bigger in 1986

I could have gone the rest of my life not knowing what the word "crepitus" means. At least I didn't learn it the hard way. Also, if the characters in these first aid videos, "Garry" and "Linda", aren't fictional, then they should be investigated. People around them are always getting hurt.

Peak procrastination: I had a dentist appointment this morning, or so I thought. I was a week early. I think they tried to offer me an opportunity to reschedule it to today but it was so hard to hear them over the sound of myself escaping rapidly and gleefully out the door.

Loblaws labelling their orange juice with a little red maple leaf is just more of the shady shit we've all come to expect from them. Was the fruit from the famous orange groves of Flin Flon, Manitoba? Their shiny new signs might as well say "Disrespecting our customers since 1919"

My partner asked me to pick up a tent but the reminder she sent me said "Trent". Clearly this is an opportunity to pull an only marginally funny and mostly awkward prank on her. Alas there aren't a lot of Trents around these days. This is yet another reason why 2025 is a tough time to be alive.

As an NDP voter, here's my totally for sure expert analysis of the other major national party leaders: Mark Carney seems like a level-headed, sensible, capable person. Pierre Poilievre seems like the kind of guy who would egg Justin Trudeau's house and shit on the hood of his car. #cdnpoli

There will be a new Federal riding: Flamborough-Glanbrook-Brant North. Flam-Glan drops Upper Stoney Creek and gains Paris, Saint George and surrounding parts of Brant County. That seems goofy. Source map: redecoupage-redistribution-2022.ca/ebv/en/?data...

Map of newly redrawn federal electoral boundaries centering on Hamilton. New riding of Flamborough-Glanbrook-Brant North is a goofy rural/small town area that includes Binbrook, Carlisle and Paris.

@lessinterestinplse.bsky.social for what it's worth, graffiti is already againt City bylaws and enforcement to get it cleaned up is complaint-driven, so call the City if you don't like seeing it. Beyond that, catching vandals is a policing issue and Council can't legally direct the police.

Their weighted electoral system favours candidates whose support comes from a wide geographic distribution so she may have had a higher percentage of the overall vote. In any case I gather a lot of Liberals weren't thrilled about Freeland's role in triggering Trudeau's resignation

In my city there is one cybertruck and one DIY parody of a cybertruck and the parody truck has become a local celebrity. Meanwhile, I always wish I had some rotten eggs to throw at the tesla whenever I see it.

A parking lot showing a cybertruck in one spot, next to a car that has built a cybertruck-esque shell around it out of green plastic. It's really hard to describe exactly how silly this vehicle looks next to the green car.
