I’m so picky about socks — they have to be the perfect amount of tight, not too hot, not too thin, no crooked seams, etc, etc. Costco socks have always been my goldilocks, but at this rate, I’ll have to start doubling them up in a couple years.

I know it's cliche, but you go from "mama" to "bru" so, so fast.

I bought so many sedges. Might go back and buy more sedges.

If you thought last year that Costco's wool socks couldn't possibly get any thinner, then you thought wrong.

My neighbor told me the Middle East keeps eating his carrier groups so I asked how many carrier groups he has he said he just goes to PACOM and gets a new carrier group afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding carrier groups to the Middle East and then Pete Hegseth started crying.

Personally I think it’s the way Natalie talks. Readers have criticized other instances in the book where she’s wrong about things, but I took it as the character not knowing, not the author making a mistake.

No cheating. Share the last photo of the sky from your camera roll … I don’t think I took this one.
It’s from Minecraft, I don’t know what else to say. The green texture is grass, the blue is sky, there’s a weird window maybe that’s floating on the middle of the screen — it looks like three wood pallets — and above that is, I don’t know, it looks like a computer chip after I’ve stepped on it a few times. If I asked my kid what’s happening here I’d get a totally different description, I’m sure.

After spotting an elephant calf struggling in a river, five fishermen set about rescuing the animal by bringing it into their boat. Officials from India’s forest department were then able to reunite the calf with its mother.

I return to my contention that the real benefit of Canadian federalism is that at any given moment there's always one province whose political situation can provide entertainment for everyone else.

That’s the number for the Trans Lifeline in the US — they’ve said this isn’t true. www.facebook.com/share/1CV3qj...
A graphic with a torn paper background in purple and white, displaying the large text “HELP US CORRECT MISINFORMATION” in bold white and yellow letters. Below it, there’s a screenshot of a tweet from that reads, “As Trump shuts down the suicide hotline, Canada has broadcasted their national hotline which now has a toll-free American version: 1-877-330-6366.” A red “FALSE” stamp is placed over the tweet. In the bottom right corner, there’s a megaphone graphic emitting yellow sound lines, and white and yellow X marks decorate the background.A purple graphic with the Trans Lifeline logo at the top. Below the logo, yellow handwritten-style text says, “If you are trans and seeking support, you are welcome to call Trans Lifeline.” Underneath, white bold text lists the phone numbers: “US: (877) 565-8860” and “CAN (877) 330-6366.” Yellow X marks are scattered around the edges of the image for decoration.]

...before the US officially joined the war. And in WWI, 33,000-40,000 Americans enlisted up here, making up almost 10% of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. I think a lot of us are the same, actually. (www.vimytojuno.ca/en/news/cana... and globalnews.ca/news/1007609... for more info)

"Canadians gave their lives to protect Europe in both world wars from the beginning, while Americans sat on the sidelines until the last minute." Except literally *thousands* of Americans enlisted in Canada to fight during both world wars. In WWII, almost 9,000 Americans enlisted in the RCAF...

The city wants to put a pedestrian bridge across the Linc linking McQueston Park to Limeridge mall — that’s cool, great idea, but branding it a gateway feature “to let people know "they've entered Hamilton”? Where do they think the city begins? 😂 #hamont www.thespec.com/news/hamilto...
But the "premise" of the project — and the funding — provide a "huge opportunity" to create a sense of place, character and gateway feature to the city, Salvucci said.

The "highly visible" feature could serve to let people know "they've entered Hamilton," she added.

I don't think this has been well publicized, but if you live in Ontario, you can now but a FREE freeze on your credit at both equifax and transunion to help prevent fraud. (Quebec has had this for awhile, Ontario just started this past July.)

Pretty sure I saw well over a hundred monarchs outside the main building at the RBG today, it was absolutely wild. Literally you’d walk up to a bush and dozens would fly up before landing on another branch. #hamont #burlon
