An important holiday update from Effin' Birds

I guess people don't remember the zoo monorail derailment in 1994 that injured 27 people and got the ride decommissioned. I feel like adding the derailed LRT as a waiting booth for the Zoomobile is...weird

How many ghosts visited her

I am SO PROUD that my mug has made it into MUG DRAFT 2025. Had these custom made for the boys specifically as a reminder that they have done NOTHING wrong...including giving these mugs away!

My mug is last in this lineup. Watch here:

The shopping gods blessed me today. Got what I needed on sale in the first store I walked into, no bells or whistles or fuss or muss.

New from me at TVO: Green P Delenda Est. www.tvo.org/article/anal...

Today I learned about a dog named Mildred Vanilla—or Milli Vanilli for short, and I have been intermittently cackling ever since.

Make sure to apply for a claim and let your publisher know!

Mug Draft: would watch.

I already know my fave mugs in my collection.

Three of my books (my first 3 romances) are in the Anthropic suit. I feel like I've made it.

Narrator: She had not made it.

Happy to hear my YOU/I DID NOTHING WRONG mugs sparked an important convo about mug hoards on @greatesttrek.com

Give them away @benjaminahr.mobi ! I don't want to be the cause of your mug anxiety! They've served their purpose!

Still waiting for the Art of KPop Demon Hunters art book here.

Don't be ridiculous, everyone knows the best beef patties are inside TTC subway stations. They'll have to transit in.

It's basically beef juice... 😅

In this case, the unhealthiest combination of the most delicious things, where each individual ingredient is okay on its own, but somehow 10x worse when combined with other okay ingredients.

...or is it just...poutine?

Hi, Baseball Mom here. Trophies don't mean everything...but if you have a minute to get some construction paper out and make John Schneider a nice card, I think he'd appreciate it.

I shouldn't have to dig so deep or really even care to find out about whatever Oates drama is going on now, and yet

Rosie got my phone AGAIN, and took another chip out of the brand new screen protector I just installed.

I've ordered a wallet case cuz clearly she's fixated on my phone and can't leave it anywhere.

YouTube video by The Forum Norwich Silver Wings: Margaret Fahey, American Red Cross Talk

Few months ago my father, aunt and uncle went to Norwich, England and gave a little talk about my grandmother who served as a Red Cross nurse during World War II, including excerpts from her wartime letters to her family back home. The video is here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMOI...

You're at Ernie.

I need you at Bert.

If for some reason you aren't sick of my face and voice, I showed up on someone else's show tonight
