Major side eye to the lady sitting at the airport gate, FaceTiming someone (her son?) on full volume. He called to tell her he had just been fired. And now we’re all listening to their conversation. Awkward.

It is absolutely hilarious to me that the world seems to have discovered curling during the Olympics this year. Meanwhile, in Canada, it’s the sport of seniors in small towns. #Olympics2026

@yyctransport It’s not cleared. Coventry Hills Bv is still closed between Country Hills Bv and Country Village Lane. Left hand turn from Country to Coventry is being rerouted back to Country right now.

@dunkindonuts Is there a way to access reward points without the app?? I signed up ahead of a trip to the US, but can’t get the app from the Canadian App Store. Is there an online barcode I can scan in store or something??

@dunkindonuts is there a way to get my Dunkin’ Rewards ID to scan in store without having the app???

Golf ball sized hail (toonie for scale). Can’t even get to the end of my front walk and the sidewalk is entirely under water. Cars are dented but driveable. #yyc #yycstorm #abstorm

My parents dog is 14 years old. Tonight I have watched my mom cut tiny pieces of ham and potatoes and blow on them bc “he doesn’t like hot food”, and now he’s getting a small scoop of Haagen Daaz ice cream in a tiny bowl.

I’m going to need @IfBooksPod and @yourewrongabout to do a crossover, deep dive into JD Vance, piggybacking off the existing IBCK Hillbilly Elegy episode. kthanks

Went outside for 10 minutes. 4 mosquito bites - two on my forehead and one on each shoulder. All are the size of nickels within minutes and I’m reminded of why I’m an indoor cat.

If you’re wondering who I am as a person, I’m the kind of person who carries my own non-dairy coffee creamer in my bag to events, apparently.

[emma @_emlockyer]

I’m going to need @Remember_Sarah @yourewrongabout to fill me in on what happened from where we left off in the OJ trial up until his death today. There’s like 30 years to fill in!

Hey @calgaryzoo, we’ve spend 50+ minutes trying to leave the parking lot at Zoolights, and we’ve gone maybe 30 feet. It will take us longer to leave the lot than we spent at the zoo!! Something needs to change!

Loved hearing @WILD953Calgary talk about the Heritage Inn International Balloon Festival this morning! Randy and Justin - your enthusiasm for our event and sport was spot on!!

[emma @_emlockyer]

@adolwyn We use Astoria Asset Management and have been very happy with them! Prior to that we were with Ultimate, who I DO NOT recommend.

@TRexMD780 And RNs write the NCLEX, and LPNs have a national exam too. Once they’re licensed in one province, it’s relatively easy (all things considered) to get licensed in another province.

@koodo @koodo I have three questions for you:

First, if our names are tied to our individual numbers on the acct, why do they keep calling me and asking for him?

Second, why do you keep calling if I’ve told you we’re not interested?

Third, why am I being told it will be updated?? /3

[emma @_emlockyer]

Hey @koodo - STOP CALLING ME. 4 times in the past week, and others prior. Every single time, it’s the same conversation:
1. They ask to speak to my husband (who is the primary acct holder). I tell them this isn’t his number & our respective names are on our numbers/1

[emma @_emlockyer]

@koodo
2. They try to sell me on a new phone plan. I say that we’re not interested and are happy with the plan we have.
3. I am told that the record will be updated so that they won’t call again.

4. They call again a matter of DAYS later. /2

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

@taylorswift13 It’s me, hi. I know places in Canada would love to have you. So, don’t make it another cruel summer. We hope to see you soon.

Watch: It's a view you'll rarely get of Calgary but you'll have to be an early riser -- hot air balloons take to the sky before many of us are up. @CTVKevinFleming has more. #yyc https://t.co/SDWT8wXwlX
