Kawhi: "I was honest. And that's all you can do, be honest; just look in the mirror yourself and see if you did anything wrong. Just kept moving forward. Talked to God, my family. I just kept moving forward after that."
Toronto's Kawhi Leonard is expected to miss a period of weeks due to swelling in his left knee, sources tell ESPN. MRI on Leonard's knee showed no structural damage, but sides will use the shorter term to ramp him back up after the stoppages during the offseason.

We need to get rid of Ford. Wasting more money on frivolous things to purposely collapse essential sectors, in order for him and buddies to keep making money.
NEW - Your drivers license and health card are coming to your phone. The Ford government says it will begin offering digital IDs, but says it will be optional, The government will table legislation to permanently guarantee Ontario’s have access to physical ones if they want.

If you grab someone walking and push them without consent, it's assault. It's the same for wheelchair users. Don't do it. If you offer help and they decline, don't help them. They don't need it. They know what they need better than you do.
DO NOT FUCKING GRAB WHEELCHAIR USERS FROM BEHIND AND START PUSHING THEM WITHOUT CONSENT BECAUSE YOU HAVE ASSUMED THEY ARE STRUGGLING WITHOUT ASKING. JESUS CHRIST

We’re obsessed with the idea that poor people might take more than they need, but we almost never question why billionaires are never satisfied with what they already have.

Every winter I think about Khaleel and what he was trying to do to help unhoused and vulnerable citizens. Instead of hiring him as a consultant and contractor, the city wasted taxpayers' money suing him for violating ByLaws, and of course paid a white man to copy Khaleel's idea.
Khaleel Seivwright, a Black carpenter in Toronto, built free insulated mini shelters for homeless people so they could survive freezing winter nights. The small wooden structures are designed to stay warm using just body heat.

Omg you guys, it's true. Ilhan Omar came here on a student visa, then quit school and just started working. Total immigration fraud, blatant. Oh wait, that wasn't Ilhan, that was Elon.

Ontario might never recover from the damage Doug Ford and FordNation have done to this province. Kathleen Wynne's greatest sin was Ontario's debt. Doug Ford has added ≈$162 billion to Ontario's debt while destroying public healthcare, education, transportation, OSC...

Was a mission to see @RealGDT's Pan's Labyrinth (in 3D) today, especially with @CineplexMovies having tech difficulties but I made it! Still have my ticket stub when I saw it back in 2007, when it was nationally released in Canada. It has left an impression on me ever since ✨

Any mention or reminder that I'll be in pain or can't do [x] thing because of my chronic illness, everyone goes silent and changes the subject, like I just offended them. Sorry I have to repeat how bad it is for me in order for you to understand for the nth time.
“People with chronic illness are so whiny.” Think about the last time you were really ill: unable to clean, do hobbies, work, etc. Just sore, symptomatic and miserable. Now imagine that… for life. How would your mental health be? Would you have trouble staying positive?

Honestly people are so whiny when they catch a cold or the flu so I don’t understand why they don’t give us grace that it’s our WHOLE life…

"She was going to a frat house, she knew what she was going to get." Oh yeah? If that's what frat houses are for, close them all entirely, immediately.

yes the Cornell rape incident is horrible, but a more overlooked sinister detail is that they advertised it in a group chat and NONE of the guys reported it or stopped them. Men enable men.
