This seems like a bad sign.
The City CFO says the real estate market for $3 million+ homes is actually holding up pretty well. Even after council hiked land transfer taxes in 2024, the number of homes sold above that threshold increased by 32%. So far in 2025, about 800 "luxury" homes sold — about the same as year previous.

I’m always curious as to why they don’t just build an apartment building.
In Portland, they're putting six 850 sf townhome units with no parking on 50'x100' lots

Jivani just wants PPs job. I mean he’s got the hubris! Imagine thinking that a Liberal PMO will give a zero experience opposition MP such an important role. Or maybe he knows this and is just full of it. Jivani is a mortgage salesman, “ofc sir, you can totally afford it. Just sign right here.”

I’m just going to tell the story. Back in 2000 I was volunteering for the Gore campaign when he came along with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Alfre Woodard and Dule Hill to a GOTV event here in MN. He ended up sitting down across from me stuffing his envelopes.

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

If you don't think Rob Reiner would have found that funny, I invite you to watch the scene in When Harry Met Sally when Harry, in the crowd at a football game, tells this serious, sad story about getting divorced while periodically standing up to perform the wave with the rest of the crowd.

Harris is obviously showing that she's an adult. But what the heck is she still doing on twitter? Why are any Dems still there? At least, go elsewhere and have a bot retweet your posts.

The complete foul lunacy of the man. (Not Jacob, ofc.) Just as a bad are all the supporters saying “he’s joking, relax.” Monstrous behavior.
The Republic Book IX remains the most essential political reading of the current era.

Rob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.

Rob Reiner was the consummate storyteller. Over and over, he revealed us to ourselves: what it is to be young and have friends, to fall in love, to feel misery and vengeance, to feel alive. And the laughs. So many laughs. The loss of Rob Reiner is... inconceivable.

Rob Reiner was one of the key people behind the effort to go to court to overturn California's anti-marriage equality Proposition 8 when it passed in 2008.
Working with Chad Griffin, they founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights and got Ted Olson and David Boies to team up to fight Prop 8.

I’m having a hard time comprehending the news about Rob Reiner. All I can articulate right now is how much I admired him, how much I enjoyed his work, and how thoroughly shocked I am hearing about what happened. My favorite superpower in any human is the art of storytelling. He was a master.

This is funny and all…I guess? Sure, the LRT opening problems are ridiculous, but a quality marathoner will always beat any street transit line? The streetcar has to stop & load/unload. He’d beat the Dundas car too.

Nobody talks about Anthony Davis like this. It’s always “yeah, but he’ll be injured in the next one”.

And now we just need a knuckleballer.

We have all the arm slots, from Trey to Rogers.
The Toronto Blue Jays signed free-agent reliever Tyler Rogers to a three-year, $37 million deal on Friday, a league source told @ken-rosenthal.bsky.social.
Rogers has one of MLB’s most unique throwing motions, with the lowest average release point in baseball last year.
