It’s okay to be glad that restaurants are doing stuff like this AND absolutely furious about the utter failure of the United States government.

I (and others in the house) have been repeatedly endangered by a dishonest family member and it could theoretically be a matter of life and death at this point so even any leads would be deeply appreciated. This room would be exclusively for me, nobody else would be coming with.

What you're imagining is only a fraction of it, but thank you.

This is a considerable ask and I don't expect anything to come of it, but nothing ventured, nothing gained, so here goes: are there any COVID-conscious people in the Greater Toronto Area who have a spare room (preferably non-basement and with ensuite) to let on at least a temporary basis?

Hey, #CDFriday! Christian Vander is by some number of intimate accounts a weird fascist so hopefully I can butterfly effect him into dropping dead by spinning my long-neglected copy of Welcome's 'Bienvenue' (Seventh, 1996) this afternoon.

Wouldn't be shocked if the ADL is financing this guy under the table to help them revise history and say 'see, proof that Hitler was left wing!' to better suit their anti-Palestinian agenda.

Most wife guys only have one wife, which is kind of pathetic when you really think about it.

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."

One of my best friends has a condition that predisposes them to paranoia and the saddest thing is having to reaffirm to them that, yes, the current state of reality is this bad and it's not just their brain playing tricks on them.

I don't know if anyone really noticed or cared - they probably thought 'oh, the music is spooky', grabbed a piece of candy or twelve from the bowl, and went on their way.

Maybe if I played it on the last day of April instead...

If this person also unironically refers to the group's founder as 'ex-Black Sabbath drummer Bev Bevan', they are my hero.

The law of averages suggests that at least one person loves Electric Light Orchestra Part Two but is completely unaware of Electric Light Orchestra.
