Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

If the rule against literally breaking a guy’s leg while breaking up a double play is named after you, maybe that’s legacy enough already.

If we strike now we make Hawaii the 11th province
I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

That scene is very good—even better than I remember—but, respectfully, I think the mo-cap duel between Maul and Ahsoka from the last season of The Clone Wars has the edge. Either way, Sam Witwer is so, so good.

I have not watched the show and I doubt I ever will, but Trouble Again is a legitimately good song, and so much better than it has any business being.
47. Having seen every episode of Droids, you absolutely do not need to watch it, but you maybe should watch the opening theme song written by Stewart Copeland of The Police:

That Alberta loud got me Fort Smacked
Alberta has collected more than $1 billion in cannabis revenue.

That's the most, per capita, of all provinces and territories.

By far.

It's nearly quadruple what Quebec has collected, per person.
Canada collected over $5.4B in cannabis tax revenue since legalization | CBC News
Ottawa and the provinces raked in more than $5.4 billion in cannabis tax revenue since the drug was legalized for recreational use in October 2018.

The delight of a chance encounter with Baby Please Come Home/Merry Xmas Everybody/Christmas Wrapping/All I Want For Christmas… while out running the most horrendously tedious and frustrating seasonal errands is a top-five thing about this season
I'm working in a food court and the greatest xmas song of all time, Darlene Love's Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) is booming in all it's Phil Spector, wall of sound splendor and I'm struck that they say there's no disagreements on BlueSky & that this is a bubble.

I denounce John Lorinc!
#topoli #onpoli Re-upping my yearly scroogish gripe-question: Why aren’t infantalizing Xmas songs on an endless loop in big box retails (Loblaws, looking at you) classified as workplace (mental) health hazards subject to Ontario labour/health&safety standards/penalties? There, I said the thing.

And you may find yourself living in an Apostolic Palace
And you may find yourself in a city that's inside Rome
And you may find yourself behind the glass of a large Popemobile
And you may find yourself in a beautiful cassock, with designer shoes
And you may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?"
