Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has homered in the first three games of the series. It's already 2-0 Blue Jays in The Bronx.

Man, he is incredible right now.

This woman who’s lived in Canada for 10 years, applied to the special program for family of Palestinian Canadians to bring her father, brother, 2 sisters, nieces and nephews to Canada from Gaza on the day it opened in Jan. 2024. There’s STILL no news about their request.

This family applied to leave Gaza on 1st day of Canada's visa program. 21 months later, they're still waiting | CBC News

The Alatbash family is one of many who applied to leave war-ravaged Gaza under Canada’s temporary visa program and are still waiting to be reunited with relatives nearly two years later.

I miss having a cat. Because she would sometimes look at me with such contempt as I sat around and scrolled on my phone that I would feel chagrined and go to bed. Alas.

I don’t see Little Debbies that often, but I have been know to put away my fair share of Vachon snack cakes — a Canadian delight! Ah Caramels are the best, followed by May Wests and Jos Louis. We do not speak of the Passion Flakie.

Circus peanuts and those banana marshmallows, but they have to be kinda stale.

Also, sometimes, I crave the fast post-school, pre-baseball game latchkey-kid sandwich of my youth: one of my mom’s homemade dinner buns with ketchup, a piece of bologna and a slice of sharp cheddar cheese. Mmmboy!

Can somebody grab the flag and shout some variation of olly-wolly-polliwoggy ump-bump fizz, just to see if things, like, reset?

If I was 22 and had just pitched a gem in my fourth outing as a major league pitcher against the New York Yankees in the MLB playoffs, you would absolutely not be able to tell me shit ever again. Like, I would be really damn insufferable!

Or, like, don’t work hard. Some of the happiest people I know put in the bare minimum, and it took a really long time for me to realize that they get paid the same as me, but also don’t care that much about “the vision of the company” or whatever garbage work is trying to sell you on.

Tanis Fowler @tanisfowler.bsky.social · 3d

Realize you are not your job. It’s fine if you don’t want to climb the ladder. I’m not saying don’t work hard, just know that you can always make more money, but time is invaluable and finite and you might not be able to keep up the hard work if you don’t give yourself physical and mental breaks.

Like, are you kidding me? There are, TWO insane set pieces within 30 minutes that include Dean Martin and Tom Cruise impersonating a Russian General, the epic Burj climbing sequence, Anil Kapoor, diamonds, nukes, a needlessly complicated switcheroo — only thing missing is Ving Rhames.

Can’t lie. I want that Springsteen shirt from his “Who, me? I’m just a dumb American tourist!” disguise.

Rewatching the Yesavage outing and it’s really unbelievable — just bonkers! — that this kid is 22!
