I'm here to talk about magical Irish villages that only appear once every hundred years. That's right. Brigadoonscrolling.

This is an actual photo of me.

I decided July 1st to become a reader and since then, I’ve read 25 books or nearly 9,000 pages 🥳 The year before, I read maybe four books

Y’all might not appreciate it, but it took him 87 moves and 14 hours to get here

My mother-in-law has invited me to play pickleball, which I'm quite excited by. However first I have to sit in my freezing car and wait for all the ice to defrost. Sometimes life in Canada can be quite inconvenient.

Excellent video on the trans Atlantic slave trade. Tired of people making exhausting comments like, "The Irish slave trade was worse" or "Africans enslaved each other" or "Why are you still talking about this ancient history"? Then this video is a Godsend. youtu.be/GrYRPLy6g2g?...

About 15 years ago, I was doing a public book signing when a wide-eyed woman from the audience came up to me to say, "You're like a brown Jude Law." I want that on my tombstone, people.

Happy 14th anniversary to this youtube video

His uncle: "What are your 5 favourite words?" My 5-year-old: "Poop, poopoo, poo, peepee, anus." *some amused snickering* My 5-year-old: "And here's a bonus word: penis."

When I was a kid, I told my parents to change my name to "Ray" from "Raywat" because I was tired of the endless racist taunts from assholes. Years later, when I got my first book deal, I insisted on always being called "Raywat" because that's my fucking name, and my name is a gift from my parents.

Congress should not let up on contempt for Bondi. They must bring her b4 committee, under oath. Except this time when she starts with her CRAP, they must be prepared to have the Sgt. At Arms, put her in cuffs. Period.

If we're serious about climate change, we should invest in thorough high-speed train infrastructure. Let the trucks have the highways. Yes, it's pricey. But imagine the positive social transformation.

These psychos will give more rights to a fancy toaster than they will to a flesh-and-blood human being who happens to be born on the wrong side of an imaginary line.

Do people get it yet that these psychopaths are bombing random civilians all over the place?

Having post-Christmas leftovers. Here's my vegan sister's mushroom wellington with cranberry sauce.

Anyone who thought Trump wasn’t going to bomb people on Christmas Day hasn’t been paying attention.

40 years ago, I received this letter from Victoria College at U of Toronto, informing me that I would indeed be able to afford a university education. It's one of the reasons that today my family endows an entrance scholarship for low-income students at the same university.

Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti, son of Italian immigrant Gaetano Crocetti Frank Sinatra, son of Italian immigrants Antonino Sinatra and Natalina Garavanta Merry Christmas to everyone except Stephen Miller and his enablers and handlers

My father-in-law always gives me the best t-shirts.

My 5-year-old has created a restaurant and has presented me with the menu for the main course: meat, spaghetti... And more.

My 5-year-old is off to bed so he did the best rounds of hugging all the adults first. Then he also hugged a giant photo of my dead mother and I almost lost it.

Last Christmas I gave you my heart The very next day Kali ma shakti de

My 5-year-old is Christmas crazy. Every day for the past two weeks, he has spent decorating the house in some way. Here, he has added "elf hats" to the dining room table.

Traditional Guyanese pepperpot (our Christmas food) is made with cassava syrup, oxtail, and various spices, and eaten with fresh bread. I've made this vegan version with jackfruit, mushrooms, and butterbeans. It's delicious.

AI is trash. Stop using the abomination machine.

We're at my late mother's house. My 5-year-old opens the freezer and finds half-eaten ice cream. "This is from when Ajee was on this Earth", he says. "This is ice cream that Ajee ate." So now we are nostalgically eating it. And yes, I realize he just totally played me into getting ice cream.

WTF is this? I did not write or submit this paper. Are journals now run entirely by AIs who hallucinate entire publications? Knowledge Of Pregnant Women About The Benefits Of Pregnancy Books In Ottawa | International Journal of Health Engineering and Technology share.google/ArcgxhUDfSY9...

Just finished this excellent book. Nonfiction, educational archaeology presented as a graphic novel. Top notch content. Highly recommended. a.co/d/0nubpxI

I still don't fully understand how Bari Weiss amassed so much power in journalism.

Because it's an inconvenient narrative

My much younger wife had never heard of Jerry Rafferty or Baker Street. Oh, my back.

This book just arrived. The kid is over at his grandparents' house. This is my one chance to sit and read. Dog is onboard.

I have a particular concern for households with small children yet no books.

Remember when Bush or Obama would slyly signal to the world their thoughts by displaying the book they were currently reading? I doubt if Trump could name a single book he's supposedly read in the last ten years.
