It's been a joy to watch the @torontobluejays.bsky.social this season. Admittedly, I had written them off after a dismal Pride Night game that felt homophobic, but since then, their record is 26-13. Re-subscribed to SportsNet + follow every game. Thanks for fun summer + hopefully, an amazing fall!
I underestimated the value of having school within walking distance. In the 10 min round trip, I get to say hi to 5-10 families + our crossing guard. Small but impactful community connections. #toronto #community
BA BA!
And those who are offended on behalf of her friends? Give it up. You don’t know her, them or their relationship.
I, for one, think she’s right. Parenting is hard af and folks who are so offended by that idea, coming from a childless woman, are giving off a desperate attempt to justify their own choices.
Why are we mad at Chappell Roan today?
🙄
Ok send this lady entire NFB dvd collection as thanks.
Lately, when I need a pick-me-up, I browse lamps. Here are some of my faves from to tonight’s Etsy scroll.
Rethinking your US travel plans? Looking for inspiration on how to keep your travel dollars closer to home? Say hello to The Current’s Canadian Travel Bucket List. This is a beautiful country - where should we go next?
"The man who makes the Cyber Trucks is a billionaire. He has lots of money + instead of helping in need, he's using his money to gain political power, threaten democracy."
"He doesn't even share?!" he yelled, "THAT'S SO MEAN!"
"Some people have even more money, they have BILLIONS of dollars, more money than everyone else. They're called billionaires," I said + his eyes widened. "It's OK to have money, but if you do, it's your responsibility to help ppl, especially those who don't have food or homes." (cont'd)
A few days later, he asked "why is the man who makes Cyber Trucks evil?"
Where do I start? Threat to democracy + free media, human rights, empathy? I ran through the list...
"Some people have lots and lots of money, they have millions of dollars. They're called millionaires." He nodded. (cont'd)
My 5yo says he wants a Cyber Truck bc a YouTuber he likes had one in a video + he thought it was cool. I said that he can spend his money however he wants when he's older, but those decisions have impact + we, his moms, don't support that company bc the boss of Cyber Trucks is evil (cont'd)
Say hi to #BostonTok for me.
Turns out Canadians were right Target. Glad you left!
McCartney cannot sing anymore. Stop putting him on stage. #SNL50
First time I’ve agreed with a Coyne tweet
Rooting for Doechii, Chappell Roan + all the queer folks tonight. #Grammys
Not even 9 am + already chased by a skunk up a snowy hill. #Toronto
At our fave resort in Mexico + happy to see so many queer folks this time around: young tattooed 30-somethings, two mom families, older white gays.
It’s cold + windy here too, but at least it’s not -20C + we don’t have to work.
Americans can be a lot, too much sometimes + I’m enjoying a more international FYP on TikTok, but boy, they know how to make a dramatic exit + I will miss them
Often the only opportunity I get to listen to a whole album top to bottom is on a plane. Yesterday’s flight made more enjoyable by SZA’s SOS, Billie Ellish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft, Cat Burns’ Early Twenties.
My fave bit of Glaser’s opening monologue
Nikki Glaser killed the opening roast. I’ve seen very little this year, but I’m watching the #GoldenGlobes for her.
I enjoy it because it's where my friends + I discuss books, but that's it really. If there were an alternative, I'd consider switching.
I enjoy Good Reads, but that site is overdue for a redesign. Every time I login, it's a new frustrating experience.
Whether I have a second screen decides whether I will open (and even enjoy) a spreadsheet.
Oh gosh, how embarrassing.
Just watched Keke Palmer + Chris Pratt in an ad for the Monopoly app while playing another game on my phone. Is this where all the ad money is going? Because they’re very effective ads. Not the Monopoly necessarily, but in-game ads as a whole.
If there can be a Utah Jazz, there can be a Toronto Tempo #wnba
