There is nothing more condescending than an Amazon customer service chat person starts off with β€œLet me explain, Carmen”. Like dude, I understand what you just copied and pasted from your script into the chat, I just don’t agree with it.

Seeing Brett McLean behind the bench for the Canucks is weird. I went to junior high with him, and his dad was my math teacher.

Whoever decided that we needed to hear the ump needs to be fired.

I hate it when singers breathe the national anthem. Just fucking sing.

Today, I submitted 456,365 Albertans’ signatures to Elections Alberta, petitioning the Premier to do the right thing, avoid a divisive and economically harmful referendum, and allow MLAs to vote and reaffirm that Alberta’s future is in Canada.πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Alberta is #ForeverCanadian

TBH I gave up caring who won this game about six innings ago.

Little should never touch a baseball again.

NVM. Little is going in.

This game is never going to end, is it?

You know who I feel for? Jays fans in Newfoundland. It’s 3:00am there.

I’m a firm believer in recall, except when it’s me and my UCP cronies…

Jesus Christ. George Springer is a hit by pitch magnet.

I’d never pay to watch a Jays playoff game in person because the thought of standing for nine innings gives me the nope.

It’s almost like they’re blaming human error, when she sides with the party that brought hand counting back into place after many successful elections with tabulators.

Can’t fucking win with this UCPers.

Literally just got my shot, and happy to report they’re busy with people from all demographics. Seniors, teens, and everyone in between.

Are you kidding me Sportsnet? You couldn’t find any of you multiple channels currently showing the same thing to put the Dodgers/Brewers game on?

And now a dad who had a stranger film him handing off goo packs to his daughter at the Chicago marathon.

And the daughter of the lady who filmed him commented.

There is some good in the world.

TikTok is going to be the end of me. Tonight I’ve teared up from:
- a grandpa winning a Halloween door decorating contest at his old folks home
- two expectant dads telling their family it’s twins
- Blue Jays fans singing O Canada on the streets of Seattle

I’m a wimp.

More shit we didn’t ask for. And we still don’t have a plastic health care card.

And it benefits the government to do this, because they in theory can make interest on the withheld pay.

And if you β€œwant to make $100K/yr” cause you think teaching is such a dogfuck of a job, go to university for six years, work for over a decade, and then maybe you can see what it’s all about.

Trying to explain that teachers get ten months of pay spread over twelve months is like screaming into the motherfucking void. This is something they bargained for. 30 years ago, teachers (and their families) just starved through the summer. I know, because I was the kid of a teacher.
