@Archaeologuy Did they not learn from bible bill in the 30’s. Who created recall legislation and then he was the first one to have a recall petition created against. He promptly overturned the legislation to save his own butt.

Hey MAGA. You laugh because you think you're safe from all of this racism, and death, and destruction. But you're wrong. Trump will come for you too. It's both predictable and inevitable. Know how I know? Because I currently live in Normandy, not far from the D-Day beaches.

@Feisty_Waters The phrase “they’re freindly” is the biggest red flag with dog owners. If you have to tell me that, then your dog isn’t, and it isn’t well enough trained. I have had people say that to me, and then their dog has chased my kids (under 5) while in on-leash areas.

@tyleryaremchuk I might have to bust out my Arcobello jersey as a reminder to how far we have come.

@RealKevbo Whenever I slightly believe, I get disappointed

@OhYesICanada With the empty net it should be an awarded goal

Hockey. And hockey players.

You may not think you have 5 minutes to spend watching a video. But you WON'T regret this beauty from @b0undless. I promise.

@rascalgas I miss watching from the second deck. It was close enough without being right on top so that it didn’t mess with the depth perception. I just miss the feeling of the old building. I do not miss the concourses or waiting in lines outside during the winter.

@RealKevbo I got a steel French press and it has completely eliminated by broken press incidents.

@CraigBaird Into the abyss by carol Shaben is a interesting book about the crash and the survival story after the crash.

[Joshua Derkson @JoshuaDerkson]

@CraigBaird I read “and no birds sang” right after reading “Nickel Trip” by Brad Bird. Two very different perspectives and experiences of the war. Nickel trip is a look at bomber command from a Métis pilot and instructor

The thing people who didn’t read Bad Blood might not realize is Theranos never even had a concept for an invention. It was pretend the whole time. It was really like if the Uber app never contacted any drivers, but once in a while a taxi showed up coincidentally to make it “work”

@CraigBaird I really enjoyed I married the Klondike. Was really interesting seeing Pierre’s parents views and how they influenced his development

Absolutely nobody asked for this, but this is a fun little breakdown of what went through my head as I faced Shohei Ohtani in the WBC

My main thought was “If he hits a home run, he’s supposed to. He’s the best… but if you get him out, that’s a fun memory to have forever” 😊

@NHLhistorygirl Good way to judge establishments is by old oilers goalies. My favourite Chinese restraint has a Cujo poster from his Oilers days. Loved that place from the first time I walked in and saw that.

@ohwitchplease When you were discussing all the teachers having PTSD from the first war and the parallels to WWII. It made me wonder if Fudge is the equivalent of Prime Minister Chamberlain. So afraid of repeating the trauma that they will do everything to avoid, even ignoring signs.

@e_backstrom @EPSB_McKay I attended Westmount, but I can’t remember any places where there were names in the brick. But that was 20 years ago so I may not remember it.

You broke up.
She wanted a relationship with better communication or something like that (you dunno cause you weren't listening)
All that remains of the okayest 6 months of your life is Rafael, the goldfish.
You hate Rafael.
