Dear Canada, I felt compelled to make something. To stick up for, and to honour. To show our strength, beauty, genius, empathy, light & heart. It's made with deep gratitude for the people and places of this beautiful land. Vive le Canada 🇨🇦❤️✌️💪 vimeo.com/1056619122/f6ec47d…

probably should have drawn the line earlier, but actual Nazi salute is kind of a firm one Maybe see y'all where skies are bluer. Maybe not.

Me: the file?? OneDrive: you have a file for me? I can take care of that Me: no I just gave you a file, where did you save it? OneDrive: saving files is my specialty! Just gimme the file Me: I just did and you saved it somewhere. Where did you save it? OneDrive: somewhere, like you said Me: wtf I asked you where you saved it, it was not a statement! OneDrive: ”you saved it somewhere” sure sounds like a statement. And you are correct 😊 Me: okay so where is it? OneDrive: where is what? Me: the file that you took OneDrive: that’s a serious accusation. I do not steal data Me: ugh no… it’s a figure of speech OneDrive: I’m suing you for slander

Has Paul McCartney ever apologized for Wonderful Christmastime? Because he should have.

Alexei Kovalev when he was pissed off and actually gave 100% effort. That shift against the Bruins in '08 when Chara knocked his helmet off. AK got up and was absolutely untouchable.
Other than Wayne Gretzky, who’s the most exciting hockey player you ever watched?

I'm down to about 40% joking
I am only about 60% joking when I tell people that the internet was a mistake and we should turn it off.

It’s funnier if you say the Mets signed 37 year old Juan Soto for $200 million for 4 years
Source confirms: Juan Soto in agreement with Mets on 15-year, $765M contract. Deal includes $75M signing bonus. First: @JonHeyman

BREAKING: I am now following Juan Soto; based on the standards of sports reporting, I look forward to his joining the Public Service of Canada during the coming free agent season.

imagine you wake up every day in room-sized bed. you are gently lifted from the covers and dressed in warmest sweaters each morning. your favourite foods are brought to you. you have no bills, no job, no responsibilities. but you are a chihuahua, so you are blind with rage.

Well deserved and overdue
The Raptors will retire Vince Carter’s No. 15 when they host Sacramento on Nov. 2, sources tell TSN. Nearly 26 years after scoring the first ever basket at Scotiabank Arena, VC will be the first player in the franchise’s 30-year history to have his jersey go into the rafters.

After this multi-year saga, it's nice to have a resolution that will give Habs fans a place to see our team play at home.
Per @SunGarrioch, the @Senators and National Capital Commission have reached an agreement for a new arena at LeBreton Flats 👀 (Via: @OttawaCitizen)

1) Reading a map 2) Accepting that bad stuff happens and you kind of have to just get on with your day anyway 3) Card cataloguing
People born before 2000, what trivial skill do you have that no one uses anymore?
