@Acyn I wish someone would say, "two wrongs don't make a right, this is about you and your DOJ, not the previous one."

Jayapal: AGl Bondi. Will you turn to the survivors now and apologize for what your DOJ has put them through? Bondi: Merrick Garland sat in this chair twice— Jayapal: Will you turn to the survivors and apologize? Bondi: I’m not going to get in the gutter…

@KristinRaworth Amazing. I’m getting on a train to Ottawa and will be playing Assassin’s Creed on my Switch the whole way.

Am I playing video games all Saturday ? Yes. Have I potentially regressed as a result of unemployment? Possibly. Have I become much much better at video games and so this is actually a win? Yes.

@dansenor @NFL I prefer Romo/Nantz. Less bias, more light-hearted. I notice how Aikman calls Baker Mayfield by his first name, but doesn't with any other QBs. Just one of the many things I don't enjoy about him. However, I'm not going to yuck your yum.

@davidaxelrod @realDonaldTrump @POTUS I see. It's OK for DJT to be awful about a horrible death when it's someone who disagrees with him, but it's not OK for anyone to comment anything other than full empathy for other horrible deaths. Got it.

What this perverse post from @realDonaldTrump displays is what we see every day: "Trump Obsession Syndrome." The absence of empathy & grace for the Reiner family in their moment of profound loss and grief is sad and revealing. For @POTUS, his grievances trump their grief.

It’s with great sadness that we acknowledge the death of Alice Wong, a remarkable disability rights activist, author, and leader. Alice brought awareness to the masses. Her words meant so much to so many. Our thoughts are with her family and friends. cbc.ca/news/world/ali…

Struggling to understand Premier @fordnation's position on speed cameras. I'd *much* rather police do police things like investigating crime, patrolling, etc. than catching speeders. It's the most avoidable tax, h/t @jm_mcgrath. With a finite # of cops, useful policing is better.

2.5 million Ontarians don't have a family doctor, meaning PWD already can't find support to apply for ODSP. Reiterating this process with the Disability Tax Credit ensures that people with disabilities will continue to be excluded from crucial support. thestar.com/politics/feder…

@TorontoStar Was it necessary to include "Hollywood Nepo Baby" in the headline? @chloemalle has clearly done the work to deserve the role, this headline devalues this work and is just shitty clickbaiting that devalues women. Change the headline, please.

Hey @TorontoStar headline editors - was it necessary to include "- Hollywood nepo baby - " in the hed of your @voguemagazine article about @chloemalle today? It devalue Malle's obvious years of hard work. Do better, women don't need these shitty headers.
