Love to travel (with my lovely wife) and hang out with our animals - cat and 2 dogs

Centre to centre/left leaning political views - there aren't easy solutions to difficult problems

F*ck Trump
Good penalty by Xhekaj, IMO.

Trump: We never had a president hosting the awards. If I cannot beat out Jimmy Kimmel in terms of talent, I don't think I should be president.

The NFL said Week 13 (includes the Thanksgiving games) averaged 27.0 million viewers, the most-watched NFL week on record (dating back to 1988)

As always, shoutout to those who never watched the NFL again after social justice messages in the end zone, Bud Light & Bad Bunny.

I can't afford eggs, my kid has the whooping cough, and the data center down the road has caused my electricity bill to triple. But at least the mascot for my town's high-school football team is still a drunk guy dressed up as an American Indian.

Unpopular opinion (I'm guessing):

The day Wayne Gretzky passes, I will not celebrate his accomplishments. Everything great that he's done ON THE ICE have been cancelled (and more) by his anti-Canadian support for Trump and MAGA. That's a trait of character I cannot forgive.

407 fees are rising in January, some parts during rush hour are up 40%. We are still feeling the consequences of Conservative mismanagement 25 years later. Adjusted for inflation, we should only be paying $0.18 per km, but instead it's almost $1.20 #ontario

In every way possible we should be moving to make ourselves less reliant on the US.

Again, our governments have nowhere near the urgency on this that they need. Stop thinking things will 'return to normal' after Trump - he is dismantling that country, and it will take a generational rebuild.
Canada, and the whole world, rely on U.S. flu data, which is used to produce effective vaccines

As US data begins to go dark, we will see more vaccine mismatches and worse flu outbreaks

This is 💯 true.

We need to stop supporting the billionaires and if people were smart they would make sure they simply just don't exist (disburse their wealth - tax the shit out of them at a certain level)
No one makes a billion dollars without some sort of exploitation of labor along the way. It’s not “earned,” it’s stolen.

This is how stupid Ontario’s “Minister of Education” thinks we are:
Starve public system of funds, escalate class sizes, understaff all programmes, report unsatisfactory test scores, blame schools.

MJ x Shai 🔥
Two-way greatness 🔥

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (32.8 PPG, 1.5 SPG) is on pace for his fourth straight 30/1.5 season... the only player to do this since 1973-74? Michael Jordan (7 straight).

The Conservatives are once again treating Trump like a rational actor that Carney is the one who is unable to get a deal with.

There are 75,977 people born in Somalia who are now citizens of the United States, including those specific people.

He is talking about US citizens. He is talking about *us*.

The truth is that none of us are garbage, and the job of the US president is to represent all of us.

We, the people.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."
