@momsthelawbanks @Mikehomeseller I have lung cancer, and I think my version of "Keep Me in Your Heart" is rather uplifting :)

@Mikehomeseller Afterglow -INXS (tribute to Michael Hutchence) Keep Me In Your Heart - Warren Zevon (last song on his last album, recoded while he was dying of cancer) Tears in Heaven - Eric Clapton (a tribute to his 4 yr old son Conner who fell out a window in NYC)

What are some of the saddest songs? Have you ever had a song move you to tears? #mikesquestions

@DominicCardy Maybe he thinks Vermont is now a province.

The U.S. ambassador still doesn't know how many provinces there are in 🇨🇦 It's 10, sir. Surely not to hard to remember.

@Mikehomeseller Routine by Steven Wilson. Saddest song ever.

@sarobertson_ He can't be that stunned

Pete Hoekstra: You've got folks who are doing everything they can to get the Canadian public to rally against America. Just doesn't make any sense. Radio-Canada: But do you understand where that frustration is coming from? Hoekstra: Absolutely, no.

@itswpceo Are there locks in the strait of hormuz?

🇮🇷Iran Just Officially Tried to Fool Trump and the USA 😳 🇺🇸Trump : Hey, nobody’s allowed to charge ships money to go through the Strait of Hormuz -it’s straight-up illegal 🇮🇷Iran: Hey America, we’re not charging any illegal tolls in the Strait of Hormuz… it’s just a harmless Environmental Tax to save the ocean!” 😇 Meanwhile… 🇺🇸🇨🇦The United States and Canada charge a very similar tax/toll for ships using the St. Lawrence Seaway. Hypocrisy level: 1000% 😂

@kinsellawarren If his mouth is open, lies are coming out

I'm going to "largely" have dessert tonight, which means that I'm not going to have dessert at all

@exjon Wow like you didn't already have enough to deal with. No music where I get my chemo. Thankfully

The chemo place is playing “What’s Going On?“ by 4 Non Blondes. Right now, cancer is the second worst thing I’m dealing with.

@athenaeumbc I bet i know which half

Did you know that fewer than half of US adults read a book last year? In our academic system, it is normal to go from kindergarten to PhD without reading a single page of Homer, Plato, Augustine, Dante, or Milton. In any other age, such a person would not be considered educated at all. Since the state refuses to teach the Great Books of Western Civilization, we've started an independent group to the study them together. To preserve a culture, you must continually study the books and ideas that created it. Below are just some of the texts on our reading list! If this sounds like something you'd like to be part of, please join our group. We read a new classic text approx. every month and meet biweekly to discuss. We are studying the great works in dialogue with each other. Most of what we put out is free, but to support our efforts, please consider a paid subscription. It makes a huge difference to the time and resources we can dedicate to this project. We are entirely independent, funded only by the incredible members of this community. Paid members get: - Live book club discussions (biweekly) - Essays to guide you through the books we're reading - Access to the community chat room - The full archive of discussions and essays - Ability to vote on what we read next...

#Montreal Food Tour: Day 12 My steakhouse dinner in Montreal was a tossup between Gibby’s and Moishes—a difficult choice, since their online reviews are closely matched. So I asked my followers and the winner was Gibby’s. I will preface this by saying that the waitress knew what she was doing. She upsold the shit out of me. I didn’t really even look at the menu—she just started with, “Welcome to Gibby’s. Is it your first time? Oh, May I make some recommendations?” Sure! I will also say that out of all the fancy dinners I’ve had in Montreal, even the multiple courses at Lemeac, this was by far the most expensive meal of my trip. I should have paid more attention to the menu. The waitress did exactly what she was supposed to do—expertly. Well done, Aimee. But my wallet beared the brunt of both of our enthusiasm. I relied on her suggestions—from the French onion soup to start to the prawn topper (which was actually their full prawn appetizer at $26 for 3 prawns) and Monte Carlo potato. Despite the cost, Aimee really listened to what I was in the mood for, was very friendly, and also provided historical tidbits throughout, which I really appreciated. The meal started with fresh brioche (not my favourite—it was cold, dense, and dry) with whipped butter, and delicious pickles prepared from a sixty-year-old recipe. They were tart and moreish—way better than Schwartz’s aggressive sourness and pungent garlic (for my taste). A fun touch was the pewter dishware and cutlery which enhanced the rustic charm of the space. The massive French onion soup arrived and my immediate thought was, “this is an appetizer?” since it easily could have been a main course portion. It had rich and beefy broth, but it was also really salty (granted, that may have resulted from the solid half cup of melted Gruyère on top). I ended up only eating half, which was a shame for a $28 starter. Then the salad arrived—with arugula, radicchio, green leaf lettuce, loads of fresh bacon, brioche croutons, and cherry tomatoes. But the portion was so massive that I only ate about a third of it to save room for the steak. Next was a tiny lemon sorbet palate cleanser which was sweet, tart, and lightly bitter—a tasty diversion before the main course. I ordered the New York strip steak, cooked medium. The accompaniments were sautéed asparagus, a grilled petite pepper, and a Monte Carlo potato. The prawns also arrived with the steak, but they were quite overdone, tough, and chewy. The potato was also really gluey and oversalted. It wasn’t very good. The steak was absolute perfection. Nicely charred on the outside, perfect medium, really tender and flavoursome beef. Unfortunately, because of the size of the starters, I only ate a quarter of it and took the rest to go. The bordelaise sauce was also really expensive and way more than necessary. Usually side sauces come in mini jugs, similar to cream for coffee. This came in a literal gravy boat, which was wasteful. It was also over salted. I didn’t have room for dessert. At the start of the meal I did order a cocktail, the Fraise Limoncello Spritz. Fruity, tangy, bubbly, yum. At the end of the meal, they also brought some housemaid thin mints with dark Belgian chocolate which were sensational. I suspect locals’ enthusiasm for Gibby’s is more tied to memories and nostalgia than taste or value. I’ll be honest, it felt like a trap for tourists. Again, Aimee earned the hell out of her tip, but she went in for the kill as soon as she learned I was visiting. Great for Gibby’s, not great for unsuspecting diners unaware of the massive portion sizes or that “add-ons” come at full appetizer prices. When I got the bill and it was $200 before tip, I left feeling kind of ripped off. Yes, I understand I ordered the food and I take accountability for that—but it didn’t feel like it was worth it. Frankly, I’ve had better meals with similar portions at The Keg for a third the price. Gibby’s: ⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 /5 $$$$
