@QuirkyGirl69 I've always called it stuffing even though I don't actually stuff the bird with it... Slow cooker "stuffing" is the best stuffing/dressing. IMO

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@MussKeg @yegwave It was vacant, which I'm guessing is partly the reason the explosion happened... i.e. no one there to keep an eye on things.

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@MussKeg @yegwave My husband has friends in Swan Hills... This happened on the same street a couple of them live on and we know the guy that owns that doorbell cam. Definitely in Swan Hills. Not everything makes the news in this world, especially not something from such a small town.

@unlearn16tweet @ABDanielleSmith What I find fascinating about the "no puberty blockers" idea is that most kids < 16 could probably benefit from puberty blockers.

Wish I had them when I was 13 & I wasn't even concerned about my gender. Delaying my period & boobs for a few more years would have been amazing!

@WWE I don't know... Since I can't see anything!!! Fix your damn feed!!!

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@WWE @Rogers fix your damn connection for the WWE Network in Canada. This is annoying AF!!

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

Hey @WWE you need to fix the feed!!! Can't watch it this way... 😭😭

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@FortuneFeimster @colbertlateshow @TigNotaro @TheMaeMartin @handsomepod I must have missed the one with Mae. I try to watch every night... I'll have to track that episode down I guess!

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@colbertlateshow now that you've had @FortuneFeimster and @TigNotaro on your show... I guess that means it's time for @TheMaeMartin to get the invite.

Honestly... It was seeing Fortune on your show that got me listening to @handsomepod!!! Love it!!!!

You’re an angry elf.
Good parenting role model.

@veryloudwoman I've started and deleted a few already. Lol!

It won't stop at pronouns & preferred names. The next jump will be banning gender-affirming healthcare. First New Brunswick, then Saskatchewan, now Ontario. And if the CPC gets into power it will be right across the board. They're copying the US playbook. https://t.co/PsFxswkkyZ

[Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms @RightsOfCanada]

This is an interesting case. The Charter, while protecting your freedom of expression, doesn't mean that you're free of all of the consequences of said expression.

Your employer/accrediting body may have standards and ethical considerations that need to be upheld to practice.

[Dr. Kristopher Wells @KristopherWells]

Talk of “parental rights” in education is a dog whistle for anti-LGBTQ ideologies.

If parents want to know information about their child, just ask your child. If they feel safe and supported, they will tell you. It’s that simple. #cdnpoli

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

Absolutely shocking news! 💔💔

My heart is with his family and the entire @WWE roster and crew! #RIPBray

[Triple H @TripleH]

Just received a call from WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda who informed us of the tragic news that our WWE family member for life Windham Rotunda - also known as Bray Wyatt - unexpectedly passed earlier today. Our thoughts are with his family and we ask that everyone respect their privacy at this time.

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@Catshealdeprsn Butters... We were in the middle of a @SouthPark marathon when he chose us at the shelter!

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

@albeertagirl @SeaChangeBeer I have always wanted to check it out, but the dates never seem to work or I find out too late to plan for it.

Guess I should get myself on some sort of newsletter email list or something! Lol!

SB QEII exit ramp 519 to Leduc - ramp closed for construction work, Aug.21 at 8pm until Oct.13. Detour signage will be posted on site. #ABRoads #yegtraffic

[Mel @PurpleMel79]

I get why this is an issue, but at the same time there are other ways to get the info & going to the original source website is usually the best way to do it. I have never used FB/Meta for my news, even when they allowed it. The algorithms always made it hard to find.

[Global Edmonton @GlobalEdmonton]

While news is available here on Twitter, it's different story on other social media because of Meta's ban. The prime minister said the owner of Facebook is putting profits over people and evacuees claim wildfire misinformation is causing confusion and fear. @MorganRBlack reports.
