Doo dah, doo dah

Awww shit yes

This country used to mean something

I did not have questions before, but now I might.

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

I've never seen this before, and it's... amazing.

Okay, Dr. Frankenstein, go ahead & play dice with the universe

And thanks.

It's more that being a Leafs fan has been a throughline for my whole life, and... I'm tired, boss.

Auston Matthews and The Last Straw - Tony Is Doing His Best I love, love, love hockey. I hate, hate, hate the NHL.

I've been a Maple Leafs fan for over 50 years, through the Ballard era, through... everything.

This... might be it for me. Auston Matthews may have finally killed off my NHL fandom. I've literally wasted my life cheering for these chuds.

Go Sceptres.

Cheers. It's been on my mind a lot lately.

Auston Matthews and The Last Straw I love, love, love hockey. I hate, hate, hate the NHL.

Look, I might continue to pull for the Leafs passively, but after (more than) a half century of dealing with this team's pain, I think I'm done living & dying by the Leafs.

Live every day like it's

I find myself using "person" sometimes, which I got from Greta Gerwig's speech in Frances Ha. But I know it doesn't always hit quite right either.

AI;DR

I'll do you one better:

If Auston Matthews, USA National Team Captain, son of Mexican and Irish immigrants, and (possibly) already the greatest player to have ever put on a Leafs sweater, goes to the White House, I would have to seriously reconsider my lifetime (50+ year) Leafs fandom.

Do it. They won't mind.

As a Canadian-American who now lives elsewhere, I feel like I'm the most emotionally invested nonpartisan observer possible in today's game.

Happy the games went well, and may Auston Matthews bring some of this swagger back to his club team, at a time when they really need it.

Welp.

Cheap packet ramen. It's just a straight up sodium shot, and each one takes an hour off my life, but fuggit.

I'll crack an egg into it if I'm feeling fancy.

Also, Amazon's 2025 net income was $77.7B, so $1.2B in tax is about 1.5% of profit. (or 0.167% of $716.9B in revenue.)

I pay a decidedly higher rate on my income than Amazon does. Amazon, a company whose market cap is higher than the GDP of Canada.

Trying AI (and failing) I'm generally skeptical about AI, mostly because we're currently living in a hype bubble about it, with stories both good and bad, everywhere. It's clearly not going away so I decided that instead I ...
