Kidnapping a CEO and making them eat a McDonald’s arch burger for every hour the ransom isn’t paid

Walking through Mt Pleasant and the whole sky lit up. Somehow it just felt like it was NOT lightning. A few mins later, heard the boom, and i commented "the 9 o'clock gun!" But immediately recognzied it was too loud for that.

we have to be showing up unexpectedly wherever he goes and demand that he resign

It is amazing that despite the loss of the 🇨🇦 women’s team that Canadian politicians are going out of their way to congratulate the 🇺🇸 women’s team and tell them they did not deserve that treatment by the men’s hockey team, in the absence of American politicians saying it.

Worth noting that on a different website, multiple ABC Vancouver officials follow accounts that post constantly about how Sean Orr is a terrible human being and make all sorts of unproven claims, including one account that creates AI videos of Orr doing all sorts of illegal or evil acts

Wow, what a terrible headline. He didn’t “apologize 18 times,” he said 18 times that he’d already apologized (which, given his behaviour so far, is clearly a claim that should be verified before it’s reported).

Quite the family history GG Santiago has-- and how humbling to think that she brought the beloved Rainbow Brite into so many childhoods like mine that were so vastly different than her own.

demand that the Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General @ninakrieger.bsky.social address the VPD's unlawful overreach:

• remove the police board and with @christineboyle.bsky.social , amend the Vancouver Charter & Police Act to ensure accountable police oversight, an elected board

once again, this is a violation of the police act

the VPD are lawless

are you following

ALSO:

This is Hillary Knight, captain of the women’s ice hockey team. I love her thoughts on this.

.... also health care is the jurisdiction of provinces and OH WELL, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT, almost every Premier is a conservative.

They're looking to expand the league; fingers crossed a prairie city (or several!) gets one!

Email to USA Hockey

Formal invitation to the hockey team sent,,, if any people with connections to the hockey team wanna have them email my team my bio. I’m for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Id like to think that one guy was like, "ya, obviously!" bc of COURSE the women should be there, before it even registered that comment was said pejoratively. But it doesnt matter, bc we see groupthink kick in: its FAR more socially acceptable for men to throw women under the bus than celebrate them

I've been calling to burn down the patriarchy since I was about 6 years old, I am definitely NOT someone to defend men's hockey. But I noticed one voice, one lone voice, that says "ABSOLUTELY" when Trump says "we'll have to invite the women," before the rest of the men burst into laughter.

Yes, thank you! I never understood my city friends' vocal disdain for the suburbs but then I realized they were commenting on a (mis?)perception more than specifics. And I also realized that growing up in West Richmond is a very different suburban experience than, say, certain suburbs of Edmonton.

The problem with standing up to tyranny is that, if you're successful people will say you overreacted.

and if you're not successful, there is zero comfort Inn saying "I told you so"

Before the game started, my hockey enthusiast partner said, "Just remember, whatever happens, we are the ones who get to live here. That's the real prize." We were shocked by his magnanimity (he hates to lose and hates Team USA even more) but no one could argue with that!

I regret viewing that game as a referendum on whether there is any justice in this world.

Good morning, it's crazy early from this Pacific time zone and uh, this isn't fun

Haha, was from when he said "that's what translators are for"? Because this was my reaction to that. 😅😬

Why yes I am reflecting on the NDP debate, how could you tell.

(I suppose in this instance, the overdub saved us from some absolute cringe)

My uniquely Canadian pet peeve: when I'm watching some kind of federal engagement that is bilingual and once someone starts to speak French, an awkward English overdub comes on. I find it so distracting. I'd much rather listen to the speaker in French even if I don't catch every nuance as an anglo.

It makes me so happy that CBC Radio One is interrupting their regular programming to live broadcast the women's gold medal hockey game. ❤️🇨🇦

Hard not to view this as a clumsy attempt to throw the other progressive parties under the bus

Spoke with senior Green and COPE leaders about OneCity’s “unified primary” offer, which includes demands that

1) they can’t sign up any members, one week after OneCity finished a competitive election

2) they must decide by Friday

“lol” and “dude” were two responses

So expect negotiations

If you are wondering what words the all-male Congress found so "blasphemous" that they felt compelled to literally scrape them off the monument, they were: ''Woman, first denied a soul, then called mindless, now arisen, declared herself an entity to be reckoned.''

The Epstein files got this out of control because people don’t believe women. A patriarchy requires deference to men no matter what and it has resulted in a pedophile operation so wide reaching not a country in this world will remain unaffected.
