Dear men, please leave perimenopausal women alone. Especially in this heatwave. I don't WANT to be unkind to you but WILL be. I don't have time for unsolicited pleasantries. I feel like I'm about to die

GIRLS WHO DONT GATEKEEP: what's something that dramatically improved your mental health??? i dont care how unhinged it may sound

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

@Revolution86583 Ain't no way. I refuse to believe this till I see with my own eyes.

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

After reading this last week the hill I'm going to die on is I'm glad Heathcliff is not a PoC in this adaptation. He's a monster. The absolute worst. Evil. Hate him. LOTHEEEEEE!! #WutheringHeights

[quynh-anh @quinnsreads]

i'm going to be an informed and proper hater

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

Dear @AirCanada Jamaica just had a devastating hurricane. We're trying to bring down supplies and aid. Allow us to pay for extra bags!?! Ridiculous!!! 1 bag with a 50lb limit!! How that going work!? 😡 😡😠🤬😭

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

Many ppl use the TTC on the weekends too..... why only calculate for work days?

[Kwame Darren @FreeTown30]

The avg amount of work days in a 31 day month is about 23

23 * 2 = 46 rides a month

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

This means nothing to me because I was buying the monthly pass for $156 anyways.

[blogTO @blogTO]

TTC will be free after 47 monthly trips in 2026

I kept my emotions in all day at work while watching the havoc Hurricane Melissa has brought upon my homeland. Now that I'm home and watching TVJ News and seeing the destruction, I burst into tears. My heart hurts.

One thing I love about the most recent elections in a Jamaica is you can publicly support the party you're voting for without fear of being murdered. Y'all kids don't know how terrifying election time was in the 80s and 90s

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

Those debates really helped. Showed intelligence and substance over...... anyways. Still mad I can't vote from overseas. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[Jamaica Gleaner @JamaicaGleaner]

The opposition People’s National Party has opened a gap over the ruling Jamaica Labour Party, according to the findings of the latest RJRGLEANER-commissioned Don Anderson poll.

I'll never understand the hate for the annual airshow in Toronto. It's really not that loud for the entire 3.5hrs. Only with the jets. I feel comforted by the fact that if any country want to go to war with us, it's a reminder that we have equipment to defend ourselves

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

Why can't Canada have such nice things 😪

I missed my 10 year anniversary of moving to Japan on March 21. I was only there for 4 years but they were some of the best 4 years of my life. I can't wait to return in 2027

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

I can't do without TRESemmé and Ivory soap but I'll try my best with everything else #TeamCanada

Lists are already circulating of Canadian alternatives to US products. Here’s one.

Alleged shuttle busses are now running after over half an hour of waiting at Ossigton Station.

[TTC Service Alerts @TTCnotices]

Line 2 Bloor-Danforth: No service between St George and Ossington while we respond to a medical emergency.Please board shuttle buses at street level.

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

Everyday I traumatized by transit to and from work on the #TTC. Every, live long day. But alas, I'm poor and have no other option

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

I know #TTC drivers have no other choice than to let degenerates, alcoholics, drug addicts and mentally unstable people on to buses/streetcars but seriously.... it's not fricking safe. The alternative is drivers being attacked so I get it. Truly I do.

[Lydia @LydiaM876]

But tonight our driver let a visibly drunk man with open wounds on his face and a vodka bottle in hand on the bus. This man immediately started to throw verbal insults and threatened to fight a passenger unprovoked. Thank God I was one stop away from coming off.

Canadians are getting a tax break.

Prepared foods and snacks. Restaurants. Takeout. Delivery. Kids’ clothes and toys. Diapers. Morning coffees. Beer. Wine. Cider.

They’re tax-free for two months, starting today.
