When the fit is so good you gotta take a photo in the bathroom. Although, I had an instructor compliment my outfit and lament that he can't wear fun patterns and prints. I asked him why and he mentioned it just isn't as socially acceptable for men to wear loud prints.

Which made me sad, because men should absolutely be allowed and encouraged to wear fun clothes too.

Sam and I spontaneously decided to try to see if we could make seafoam candy. Turns out we can.

I'm glad that the Nobel Peace Prize went to someone who actually deserves it. While it would have been funny to see Trump react to Carney getting it, he hasn't done anything to deserve it and I was honestly surprised people were thinking him Times Person of the Year, however...

I really wasn't expecting Mike Flanagan's Carrie to be scored by what is essentially my Spotify recommended daily playlist.

I didn't have Paris Paloma's music on a Mike Flanagan show on my Bingo card.

Sam has since reminded me this is actually the fourth job where this has happened.

So this is the third job I've had where a member of the team I am on has worked with Sam in some capacity in the past. Such a small world.

Trump must have heard that people have been mentioning Carney's name alongside the Nobel Peace Prize and now he's bigly mad.

Trump on Canada: "They act like they're totally innocent. They're not. They were very bad. But now they're being taught a little lesson. In fact, we just named a certain lake Lake America. Lake Ontario is now named nake -- and it actually passed"

Last night I was reminded of one of those "kick yourself in hindsight" moments for making the wrong decision that we couldn't possibly know was the wrong decision at the time. We were travelling to a friend's wedding in Toronto in November 2023...

A few weeks out, Sam mentions how a pop musician he was getting into was playing a show in Toronto a few days before we were planning to fly out. He mused about adjusting our trip to catch the show, since he was really liking her music and felt like she was going to become bigger

Unfortunately, I was also job searching and felt like we couldn't justify the additional expense, so we ended up not going. And that is the story of how we missed seeing Chappell Roan in a small club in Toronto, several months before she blew up.

Okay, fake news is getting insane. I just saw a person sharing a "CBC" article about Jagmeet Singh being arrested. If you click the link, you go to a page that looks EXACTLY like a CBC article. I happened to notice the URL looked wrong. Google confirmed no such article exists.

Well, looks like I will be cheering for a new team for the foreseeable future. And right after buying Oilers gear last season. Boo.

I was wondering when someone was going to acknowledge that this map quietly included Iceland into annexation.

MAJOR BREAKING: Iceland has JUST SUMMONED the U.S. ambassador after Trump posted an image showing Iceland covered by the American flag. Yes, seriously. According to Icelandic broadcaster RÚV, the post was enough to trigger an official diplomatic response. This is where we are now.
