Sadly, I think Auston Matthews may be severely underestimating the reaction he's going to receive from Leafs fans after today's events. I'm as disappointed as anyone by his poor choices.

PM Carney — before another Western nation does it first: federal Crown corporations, with Indigenous equity partners, to build critical minerals processing capacity in Canada. Privatize once established. The window is open now. 🇨🇦

Too funny. The accidental millionaire.

Brilliant. Nostradamus-like.

Where on earth can you buy raw gallium metal?

This would be OK. I collect them because they make my heart happy, not because I want to get them slabbed and graded and flip them for profit in a few years. Underlining, notes in the margins, battle scars from use - that just means someone loved them as much as I will.

Just curious (and hopeful) - I wonder if we can expect a gradual decrease in the price of AD&D 1e material now that Stranger Things has ended its run? It was a thing, and as the mania fades, it becomes less of a thing and some of these items return to semi-affordability?

Or, "How To Win and Still Be a Loser."

Donald J. Trump, world class at having no class.

If you're a Canadian hockey fan, stay away from the other site today. It's not good.

Two more months until we see these little dudes here in Ontario. The harbinger - the warblers are coming!

Drop an album that was important to you when you were nineteen.

This looks kinda sorta awesome

Dressed in black and attending a vigil to mourn those lost in the Tumbler Ridge mass shooting, Canada's political leaders - Pierre Poilievre (Leader of the Opposition), Mark Carney (Prime Minister), and Mary Simon (Governor General) hold hands in a demonstration of solidarity and shared grief. Local and Indigenous officials appear behind them in similar attire and grieving aspect.

Canada grieves for those impacted by the incomprehensible tragedy in Tumbler Ridge. Regardless of who you are or where you live, there are moments when politics cease to be important or relevant - do not fail to recognize those moments. Show your quality.

An aerial photo of a skating path on the ice of Lake Ramsey in Sudbury, Ontario, depicting two skaters making their way down the path, which is cleared on the surface of a snowy frozen lake, with green trees off to the side and city building off in the distance. Looks cold!

Man, I miss my hometown.

The Ramsey Lake Skating Path, 1.5km of serene beauty in the heart of Sudbury, Ontario.

Thanks a million, will definitely take a look.

Is Classic Traveller something I could teach myself to GM within a week or two?

Thanks, this is helpful.

Crowdsourcing feedback on this - any guidance is sincerely appreciated ~

Thanks for this!

No, not familiar with it - will check it out. You've played?

Group of folks who have only ever played DND5E and a short AD&D campaign. Want to try running them through something new, trying to decide between Star Trek FASA and Traveller, with Call of Cthulhu as an outside contender. Which is the best for such a group?

For context, this is Hwy 21 in midwestern Ontario. This road has been closed by police since mid-afternoon yesterday. No one should be out there.

Hey, don't be dumb (like this guy). If a highway is closed, it's closed for a reason. Driving on a closed roadway voids your auto insurance; coverage only applies when you're driving legally. If you get stuck, not only are you putting your life at risk, but those of emergency services folks, too.

So, is this just a massive rug-pull, or actually the long-predicted demise of crypto? Lots of folks making lots of money illegally manipulating silver, gold, crypto, etc., these last few days.

Be still, my beating heart

Having a "wish I could retire" kinda day. Oh well.

Aber-bay... zhan?

If you see this, post a dragon

Which is exactly why Canada should be canceling the remainder of the F-35 contract with the US in favour of the Saab Gripen fighter. No brainer.
