CJ is very sad ⚾⚕️😷

Brain-injured Blue Jays ⚾ fan just trying to survive this airborne pandemic, societal collapse and the Blue Jays front office. #MasksWork so wear the best one you can. Your brain is a dreadful thing to lose to a virus. Ask me how I know.

When illness felled me and ended my medical career, when I moved to the "other end of the stethoscope" as they say, I realized so many things. The unimaginable value in knowing you've been heard, chief among them. I so wish I could practice again, knowing what I live every day.

A Medical must-read⬇️
“I must sound so ungrateful,” a father said. Where patients usually say “thank you," he said: help me understand why no one listens to us? The “ungrateful” patient taught me: Patients don’t owe us gratitude. We owe them the truth. And the willingness to listen.

I'm struck by all the "we", "us" and "our" from Max Scherzer in this interview. (Whole thing is pretty good but this link is to the part in question.)

N.I.C.E. Agent "welcoming" some foreigners on the Halifax pier. Here he is assisting these American women with their declaration: "I love the Toronto Blue Jays".

How times have changed from the old "Talking to Americans" episodes I loved. Good change. Needed.

Until one of the other parties or corporate media outlets demonstrates otherwise, best to think of Ontario as a one-party province with Pravda-esque complaint media.

Handouts for friends and corporate court functionaries, erasure of local democracy, poll numbers stay sky high.

I am in the strangest state of agitation. By the grace of God, I do not _need_ anything but all of these sales and the shopping hoopla have me feeling like I want to buy something. Don't worry. I won't. But it's a really weird type of FOMO.

Thank you forever, @beastmoderocco.com, for your MLB/BlueJays/etc. bots. Today would be a very different day here on Bluesky without your generous work for all of us.
Blue Jays, RHP Dylan Cease reportedly agree to 7-year deal, per multiple reports including http://MLB.com’s @Feinsand.

Well, my #1 question is, how many home runs does he give up in late & close innings?

#JustAskingForNoReasonWhatsoever
7/$210m seems a lot higher than predictions. I wonder if there is some deferrals

Nuh uh. Clearly #HoliJays started Thursday, my dear Blue Jays (bot).

Wholeheartedly second this motion.

#BringBoBack
The Blue Jays have had a lot of "almosts" in free agency. They weren't leaving anything to chance with the Dylan Cease deal.

Seriously, after coming **this close** to winning the World Series, this is the exact sort of statement a team should make to their fans.

Kudos. Next, sign Bo Bichette.

Behold! A Blue Jays free agent signing! I am D.Cease(d).
This is the exact type of deal the #BlueJays needed in their rotation.

Kevin Gausman and Shane Bieber are free agents after 2026 while José Berríos has a player option.

Now, in Cease and Trey Yesavage, two new long-term cornerstones. A massive statement by Toronto.

As a Canadian, I'm finding all these guys picking table #2 quite distressing. (🦆) Likely hypocritical as I'd pick table #4 in a heartbeat (not knowing who anyone else is) bc the PHANATIC is there! (No, I have never seen a single one of the horror flicks and there's a chance that's a Yankee?)
Thanksgiving food is great, but the company you share it with is just as important.

Which Thanksgiving table would YOU want to sit at?

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

$65B (billion) of healthcare funding in Ontario has gone missing.

Over five years, at least.

The Auditor General has no idea where it went, so it wasn't audited.

Oh, you didn't know?

That's #CdnMediaColludes doing a good job.

As citizens of Ontario grieve the callous and corrupt actions of our very own Maple Trump, here are some signs from the protest against Bill 60 at Queens Park this weekend. As the sign says, #DougFordIsCorrupt. Bill 60 is immoral. #HousingIsAHumanRight

📢THIS!👇👇👇

STOP saying "if Covid was dangerous, the <insert formerly trustworthy governing body> would have told us".

No! These criminals incinerated every scrap of integrity, authority, ethics and morality they might have had when they abandoned Public Health for politics, profit and fame.
The elephant in the room is that any effective defence against COVID and other airborne pathogens will end the careers of today's public health and IPC leaders - their only hope to beat charges of negligence is the lie that it was never possible to do better.

They cannot afford a success.

I just gotta say, reading all of your Pope Leo karaoke lyrics, that 85% of them make absolutely no sense. And that's only exposed when the music is missing. 🤯
