@PWHL_Toronto Time for your own arena, dontcha think?

😭😭😭

@jen_keesmaat Mass timber, too?
Feels like a win-win for people and the planet.

@alexbozikovic I’d certainly feel better if they at least spelled the station name correctly in their tweet. All they had to do was look at the picture they included in their post to see that Harbour has a “u” in it. Ugh.

@RichardAPeddie @Aburg_TownHall Sadly it’s too common an issue. Richard, I know you’re a voracious reader so I’m sheepish about ME recommending YOU a book, BUT I’d you haven’t read it, I highly recommend you pick up a copy of Paved Paradise by Henry Grabar. Eye-opening and a great view of changes we must make.

I have no idea which AI tools can do this but I want to know because this is simply spectacular

My Saturday fun project: using AI, every US president as a Pixar character.

@kristenhewitt Well-said.

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@amypataki You won’t make dinner but at least the lights look great.

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@kristenhewitt Everything about this is sickening, except when it’s heartbreaking like in this case.

@beirnsey And when they’re not available locally, give cookies.

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@JonnyGeller @sportsbabeeh @Baddiel Brilliantly explained.

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@KyleKoch61 @beirnsey I can now vouch for it; Craig couldn’t hold a candle to Paul.

@Paulbeirne Big fan of what they’re doing on the business, design and community side of things, but would love to see them use more of their colour — as in, not just black — in their kits. But I’m buying merch, for sure. (Insert rant about shipping fees to Canada here)

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@SmithRaps @DShulman_ESPN And to think, he’s actually an actuary by trade!

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@Paulbeirne Long overdue time to buy a #19 CMNT kit.

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@slivatola Happy to trade my left Achilles for a lightly used set of lower back (unherniated) discs.

[Alon @alonmarcovici]

@RichardAPeddie @RTT_Amherstburg Love what you’re doing for the joy of reading and building community. Wish there were something like River in midtown Toronto (though perhaps the absence of Toronto is what makes Amherstburg special).

@Sutton_ImpactU @Fanatics @Topps @MLB And what's left of it will die with a future announcement that Fanatics will shelve all future printed cards and replace them with NFTs only. Got 'em, got 'em, need 'em just doesn't work as well in NFT world, eh?
