A reminder that Ontario, and Mexico are both a part of America. The U.S.A. doesn't get to hog that name all for itself.

NordVPN are crooks, and they're bad at building software.

Blue Jays merch is ridiculous. $50 for a heckin' spatula. $75 for a friggin' tumbler. That's enough overpriced t-shirts, hoodies, and hats. Give me a decent polo for a reasonable price. @bluejays.com

Tonight's #WHCD will end up demonstrating again that the U.S.A. cares more about their 2nd amendment than their 1st.

The LPC tent is too big. This is not what the country voted for. I hope @avilewis.ca is working very, very, very hard right now. #CDNpoli

Juno Awards Gala is doing soooo much better this year than last, but they're really not there yet. The nominee listings go by SO FAST, and the 30-second limit is really too short. #JUNOS

A) Mega-mergers are very bad, which is why they are illegal, and Nexstar, and Disney needed to bribe the FCC with the Kimmel cancellation to get around the legislated viewership cap. B) Stop saying Kimmel called that guy MAGA. (He didn't). C) Stop calling fascism "soft-fascism".

Good news re: Doug Ford vs Bike Lanes www.thestar.com/news/gta/for...
thestar.com
Ford government’s attempt to remove Toronto bike lanes is unconstitutional, judge rules
The Doug Ford government has said it plans to appeal Wednesday’s decision.

Everything I know about Dónal Gill comes from his writing in this piece, but it's enough for me to hope he runs for NDP leadership. AI regulation is a subject that desperately needs more attention.

Option A) Pay $4 to buy myself a new card at my GRT Ion stop. Option B) Pay $4 for a GRT ticket to get to downtown Kitchener Customer Service Centre, to have them give me a replacement card.

I'm not sure why the Conestoga Station improvements by Grand River Transit (GRT) need to take 3 months, and I don't like how far from the Ion that they've moved the temporary bus station, but I love these signs all over the sidewalks. Hey, Toronto Union Station! Take note!

I hope Jake Tapper @jaketapper.bsky.social, CNN, and The Atlantic @theatlantic.com continue their "discussions" about what went right, and wrong with COVID school closures, and new air-quality safety measures*, but I hope they leave David Zweig out of it. *there are still no new safety measures. 🙄

I don't even mind all of tonight's crass product placement, but c'mon... The "Junos were previously awarded in the following categories" flashed across the screen reading off sponsors without even reading the winners? Logos, but no photos... I think we can do better. #JUNOS

Grand River Transit is pretty good, but jeez their website payment services stink. After 3 rounds of broken EasyGO auto-reload, customer service suggested deleting payment info, & re-adding. Looking at my CC statement, I see I somehow paid refill amount three times. 👍😒 #GrandRiverTransit #EasyGO

It's very hard for me to see this as anything other than a push for a nation-wide reduction of standards... Probably without protection of further lowering of standards in the future.

I do understand that there's a lot of snow to get rid of, but I was genuinely super surprised that the sidewalk at King & Moore (Google, really) along the old McDonald's was just 100% unusable yesterday. I mean... It's King Street.

Imagining the campaign against Pierre Poilievre, I might be beginning to believe that Karina Gould is the stronger candidate than Mark Carney. @karinagould.bsky.social #CDNpoli #LPCldr
