@tomengelbird @TomEngel18 Noticed that too. But the Mail got the story from McLean’s

@TomEngel18 The Daily Mail. Good one Tom.

"The gunman who killed 22 people in the worst mass shooting in Canadian history may have been an informant or agent for the national police force, sources say." Was this a subject of the Inquiry? #RCMP dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…

@WestJet Hey @WestJet I’m curious about your new extended seats. How did you do that? Remove some rows? Stretch the jets? 😉 Curious minds want to know

Places on Earth that don't look real - thread 🧵 1. Namibia, where the desert meets the ocean

@AaronWardDene I am so sorry for your loss. You’re absolutely right - this crisis affects everyone's family.

@alex_n_boyd Oh didn’t realize that. Normally they get on top of it right away. alberta.ca/albertas-rat-c…

@BattlelinesAB They've been there for two years apparently. Is that minor?? Genuine question, I am just learning about how this works!

Okay who in Alberta wants to talk about RATS

@alex_n_boyd Oops just read your other post. Minor infestations happen occasionally. They’ll take care of them

@alex_n_boyd No such thing

My interview today @RealTalkRJ with @ryanjespersen about my new book "Indictment": "We need 24/7 non-police mobile crisis response teams to respond to people in mental health distress" Full interview: youtube.com/live/Y7mqXtwaR…

@EScrimshaw Seriously? Glad that worked ‘cause I was all out of ideas otherwise

God bless Twitter

@EScrimshaw Did you turn it off and on again?

Question for good-at-tech Twitter: my iPhone just started making a clicking noise when I hit the home button and my audio is all distorted, all of a sudden Anybody know what to do that doesn’t involve taking it apart?

@JAlainDB @CraigBaird I wondered that too. I wonder if he means that some matter was displaced - pushed out sideways. Then there is less mass because there’s less matter in that area.

@CraigBaird Very interesting! Just confused about one detail - why would compressed rocks have less mass?

Did you know that if you are near Hudson Bay, you actually weigh less than if you were somewhere else in the world? The Hudson Bay gravitational anomaly is about -0.005%. So if you are 150 pounds elsewhere, you will weigh 149.9925 pounds there. Let's learn why that is! Part of the reason is that thousands of years ago, Canada was covered by the Laurentide Ice Sheet. This massive ice sheet covered millions of square kilometres and was 3.7 kilometres thick at Hudson Bay. It weighed so much it compressed the ground by hundreds of feet. The area of Hudson Bay is surrounded by the Canadian Shield, and that rock was compressed by the ice sheet. While the rest of present-day Canada's ground rebounded over the centuries, those compressed rocks have taken much longer, about 12 millimetres per year. With the mass of the rocks decreased due to the compression, the gravity is also decreased. This is only part of the reason gravity is lower at Hudson Bay as the compressed rock accounts for 25 to 45% of the gravity anomaly. The remaining amount is likely caused by what is going on below the earth's surface. Magma rising and falling creates convection currents, which drag down continental plates, decreasing the mass of the area. This gravity anomaly won't last forever. In about 5,000 years, the 650-foot bounce back will be finished around Hudson Bay.

@th3j35t3r @X My counter.social account was suspended for some unknown reason. How do I get back in?

@andrew_leach Who’s responsible for the Sun or layoffs? Justin, Danielle or Rachel?

Alright, tweeple, I am back on the bus heading from Portland to Boston Logan Airport after a great AERE conference (sorry to leave a bit early). Can't really do much work on a moving bus, so ask me (almost) anything to make the drive go faster. #ama

@rooneykris Trying to turn kids into farmers! Too funny

@moirarvane The artifacts left behind by loved ones are almost as complex as the lives they lived. Some represent the values of the owner; others mere necessities of life. When my father died 27 years, I was urged/coerced to take his golf clubs. I hate golf, but have yet to part with them.

Here @MedicineRiverW for open house and Otis the owl’s birthday celebration. Just starting and people starting to arrive.

@youseepeeYYC Liberals are more progressive than NDP?

Got my vote compass results back.

Peace by Chocolate isn’t just a statement, it tastes really good too!

@moirarvane So sorry to hear this Moira. I don’t know your father but judging from the comments it seems you inherited a lot of his traits. I hope he finds comfort in his final time with his family around him.

It absolutely breaks my heart to share with you all that my dad has been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. While we are all devastated, he has been adamant that no one should feel sorry for him because he lived a good life and all his dreams came true.

@Ash_Stewart_ Then there’s Regina. I worked really hard once to try to convince an American that yes it actually rhymes.

I do not understand why some Canadians say 'Toronno' and some say 'Toronto' Canadians, please explain
