Unfortunately, they weigh a ton and are impossible to lift up a set of stairs without help!

Got to love Facebook Marketplace. Just bought 2 bookshelves that were originally in an MP's Parliament Hill office. $80/bookcase. An affordable and incredibly effective memento from my time on the Hill. #Ottawa

One of the best #Lego sets I've purchased in a while. Looking at it makes me want to go back to #Paris.

Aeropress coffee; where have you been all my life?!?

I take it you're waiting to play Civ 7, or are you playing that on PC?

Thanks for sharing, Amy. I suspect very few Canadians currently alive have bothered to seek out audio clips of many of our former leaders speaking. Having just visited Vimy Ridge yesterday, this is particularly interesting to me. Incredible how much of France was destroyed in both World Wars.

Got my tickets to see @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social in #Ottawa. Very glad he added an early show. It was selling out like crazy. I guess people *do* watch The Daily Show in 🇨🇦! 😅

James Bridges’s profile James uses Letterboxd to share film reviews and lists. 131 films watched. Favorites: Jurassic Park (1993), Casino Royale (2006), Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), Apollo 13 (1995).

I watch a lot of movies. If you're interested in my recommendations or reviews, check out my profile on #Letterboxd. Give me a follow and I'll follow you back! @letterboxd.social boxd.it/7G7fb

NY Rangers media & their fans have been salivating over Brady Tkachuk for years. I was at a Wikes-Barre Scranton AAA baseball game last summer and some Yankee fans I met were asking what it would take to pry him away from Ottawa. They thought only Zibanejad would do it. 😅 #Sens

YouTube video by Bluey - Topic Bluey Theme Tune (Instrument Parade)

One of the great joys of being a parent to a toddler in modern times is being able to watch #Bluey. It's a really good show, even for adults, and my god, the theme song slaps so hard. youtu.be/qj7gEtqSGiE?...

Hell yes. This is the geopolitical hockey analysis I came here for.

It's always nice to have something to look forward to. I'm looking forward to my first-ever trip to Europe in early 2025, when I'll be visiting Northern #France 🇫🇷 (including #Paris🗼) and #Belgium 🇧🇪. Send any recommendations my way if you have them!

Great to see that @bobbyrae48.bsky.social has joined Bluesky. His work as an MP, and later party leader is a big reason why I became interested in Canadian politics and pursued a career in the field. Definitely recommend following him.

If you know, you know.

Pro tip for any political party: if your current leader is unpopular, you may want to consider changing your campaign training program name to something other than the leader's name. It would suggest the start of a subtle, modest rebrand suited for the times.

I always thought a better approach was to rally your teammates from the bench. "Come on guys, we got this. If they can do that to us, we can play them hard and do it right back to them." etc. Better to inspire than to create spectacle.

If we're sticking with references to WWE, it might be time for a surprise attack of a teammate in the locker room or backstage. Something (or someone) needs to be shaken up.

Digital nomad? Or "Digital? No, mad!" Punctuation is important.

I'd just as soon rather see him gone, ASAP. Time for management to admit they screwed up before it's too late. Bring in Montgomery or Gallant to light a fire under the players.

My friends got to be the people playing bubble hockey on the ice during intermission at the #Sens game tonight, so at least there's that.

Lacrosse is amazing. The indoor version is like hockey combined with the playmaking of basketball, and the outdoor version (AKA field lacrosse) is like soccer combined with the playmaking of basketball.

I've been saying this since like, day 2 of the season. Glad you agree. Hiring former Leafs scum was always a mistake. Should have brought in Gerard Gallant to push these guys. Now that he's available, I think Jim Montgomery would be the right choice.

I'm at the point where I don't care what it takes, I would rather see Erik Karlsson back playing in a #Sens jersey and rolling the dice on success than having to watch this group play every game.

I've seen enough. Time to end the Travis Green experiment. #Sens #GoSensGo

Dear John (Ibbitson): stop trying to make "Laurentian elites" a thing. Nobody other than you or Darrell Bricker thinks it's a real thing.

I stopped playing the Assassin's Creed games after like 2 or 3, but now I'm going back to play some of the PS4 era games. First up; AC Unity.

This is a huge sign of life imho: www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Biggest complaint as a (L)lib over has been a lack of proactive effort. I take this as 1/n efforts.

This - hilltimes.us10.list-manage.com/track/click?... - is a great surprise for Libs and provides the means for some of those efforts.

I know this goes without saying, but I feel it needs to be said nonetheless; what a turd.

I'm planning a trip to Northern France and Belgium. Hoping to visit both Bruges and Ghent, but which one should I stay the night in? Leaning toward Ghent...

If you're feeling upset about the US election results, you'll feel a little bit better after searching for the song FDT by YG. Just sayin.'
