Everyone gather 'round the fireplace, Bluesky. It's Christmas story time!
Let me tell you of a heartwarming incident while I was in my heyday journalist years. It'll guarantee a laugh.

Like one thing that's hard to explain about Canada is *nobody will ever give a shit where you got your degree* because, esp for undergrads, all programs are good enough whether you came from UofT or Humber College @ Guelph. It really just doesn't matter

For my last #RaveyardShift in 2025, something a little more calming and lighthearted these holidays. Some trancey segues into pop music.

"Professionally incapacitated" does not show up even once in the entire @canlii.bsky.social database (and only 31 times in Google Scholar related to employment law). www.canlii.org#search/index...
We are going to have court cases in BC over what it actually means. That's how stupid this is.

We now have a more ridiculous political euphemism than "hiking the Appalachian Trail".

The radical idea of building transit projects that open on time, as opposed to five years late. #Metrolinx
I want to hear your uncomfortably big ideas for Canada!

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Okay, someone took "No Kings" just a little too seriously.
Thieves just executed an armed heist at the Louvre, shattering display cases to steal historic diamonds once owned by Napoleon and Empress Josephine. The museum has been temporarily closed following the robbery.

How about one more #RaveyardShift on women in trance music?
The first to make their mark were songwriters and vocalists, which led to the #vocaltrance subgenre. Roles continue to change, along with the sound.

Yet another fun fact: I have *literally* sat next to Dame Mullally's seat in St. Paul's Cathedral. (They actually let a cafeteria Catholic into the quire stalls.)
