@Steam New client is nice but please ditch the splash on startup.

.@Telesat How is Anik F2 doing? Are all mitigations in place for Canada's northern communities that depend on it? Losing 1/3 of revenue from that satellite sounds like a significant loss of connectivity for the north.

@AnnaGHughes Ooh! This happened to me recently. I was most surprised to learn that The Shining has a sequel with Ewan McGregor playing a grown-up Danny Torrance. I had no idea until @plex pointed out that I only had one of two movies in The Shining Collection.

@MissHelveticaB Maybe we could at least fight shrinkflation by, say, consolidating a pair of cereal boxes before check-out.

As someone who volunteered a week of vacation working on a @HabitatCanada home build, this is really upsetting to read. Families purchase the houses. Other home purchasers could have a well inspection as a condition. Why not them?

Here is the full story of what happened at Laurentian University. The table of contents alone makes it clear. @Dominic_Giroux and Robert Haché @recteurulpres are no better than criminals. How they can look their families in the eye and not feel deep shame is beyond me.

@AvenSarah Oh. I missed that update. Good for you! I haven't chosen a server and thought I would just set up my own like in the old email days. Then the only ego that can screw it up is mine. :)

Hey if you just got hit by a car on your bike on 12th and federal by the school, i chased down the guy who hit you and got a pic of his license plate. Tried finding you after but you had left the scene. Hope this helps.

@AvenSarah But they are generally linked up so you can follow or be followed regardless of which server you signed up on. Anyway, offer won't expire until I do so let me know. :)

[Amos @amostwit]

@AvenSarah There seems to be a bit of an exodus happening and the distributed nature of Mastodon is quite cool. You can join any server but some are created to be online spaces for certain topics, interests, values, or just geographic locations.

@mbonsma @smith5381 Oh don't worry. It will be replaced with a hydro pole slightly to the right with the bus stop sign affixed. Best we can hope for is that they don't need a guy wire to hold the pole up.

hi Twitter, this parka was stolen out of my car in downtown St John's on Friday night: it is one of a kind, I can guarantee no one else in the province has a parka like this. I filed a report with @RNC_PoliceNL but please help me find it. #nltraffic #nlpoli #nlwx @590VOCM @CBCNL

Something that hasn't yet caused an LRT issue.

@ladybugspicnic I was trying to search for what those twist-tightening systems are called (my snowboard boots have them) and found this product that you can fit to any skate. https://t.co/zlNx1N4byc Video here: https://t.co/HJpMA8usjU

@callinyouout81 @Celtics_PRam @oneawkwardmom Ah yes. The F-ing Fours.

1. One spring day 76 years ago, a Canadian medic leapt out of a plane high above Nazi Germany and began floating toward the ground.

This is the story of Toppy Topham — and how he died.
