Food recall for a life threatening contaminant in Tyson Food products. Considering that Americans may not be getting this info in a timely manner, or at all, you might want to sign up for the emails notices from All Recipes yourself. www.allrecipes.com/tyson-foods-...

Umm. Have you seen this? Bwah ha ha ha

Please enjoy. Ghost, the beautiful octopus who is in her last days at the Aquarium of the Pacific. wapo.st/3VBBx6p

Another link from Lainey Gossip. Lainey Lui has been in the industry for decades. It’s not just a gossip blog, it’s a smart write up of the industry. Here Sarah tackles Jimmy Kimmel. Hilarious video tie in that also shatters. Looking at you, Brian Kilmeade. www.laineygossip.com/jimmy-kimmel...

Huff Post is rerunning this excellent piece about homeschooling conferences and one woman’s experience with her excellent modules about historical American women. It’s an eye opening personal perspective. www.huffpost.com/entry/homesc...

Heartfelt thanks to all of you who donate blood in Canada. I have eternal gratitude and love for all of you. If you can donate blood, think about making an appointment today. Men, it’s much harder for women to donate blood. Please step up if you can. www.blood.ca/en/blood/don...

For those of you who remember Monica Lewinsky’s interview with Barbara Walters and were mesmerized by her lip products, this company makes a dupe of the now discontinued Club Monaco trio. I only got my hands on the gloss. It was called “Cherub.” threecustom.com/special-coll...

Yay! Been waiting for this. My time is now. www.harpersbazaar.com/fashion/tren...

Looking at this smile, I swear I can hear Malcolm-Jamal Warner saying the name Gordon Gartrelle.

Y’all have got to watch this 😭

Make her famous please. A cursory search didn’t bring anything up for me here.

Missed this gem from WaPo.

Gee. It’s almost like it was planned or something. #Project2025chapter8 But I had to bring them back down to earth a little bit.

This is shocking. I’m going to make it a priority to watch this.

If you're using John Lewis' "Good Trouble", you better be willing to get your head cracked, go to jail, or worse, as he was, and have read the biography in which he talks about it. www.goodreads.com/book/show/27...

I am begging Canadians to take this seriously. If PP won and was enacting all these right-wing things, you'd be giving him so much shit for it. Please stand for Canada and First Nations, for each other, not for blind loyalty to a banker. If you believe in Carney, demand he do better. #cdnpoli

It was the best of memes. It was the worst of times.

Shared this article yesterday but couldn’t gift it for some reason. This is a great breakdown of who is saying what about Epstein in MAGA world. Gift 🎁 article www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

A who’s who of how the right is reacting to Trump’s Epstein problem. I cannot gift this one, strange. I hope you can access it all the same. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

The best take on this one. Apologies to Lons if you’re here, I could not find you.

How have I not heard of percebes? A new (to me!) delicacy to hunt down and try. gailatlarge.com/blog/2017/06...

Another day, another food recall from Allrecipes. This was sent to me via email because your American government is falling short in this regard. www.allrecipes.com/yocrunch-yog...

Well at least the US cut food inspections so that billionaires could get married in Venice, hope that helps

This Recall Alert is from Allrecipes, received via email. I hope you’re - in the US - all aware about this one. It struck me though that I never received a recall from a recipe website before. Others are stepping up to the plate where your government is failing. www.allrecipes.com/hartford-bak...

One thing the author has missed in his deservedly scathing read of Musk is the mainstreaming of drug abuse in his day to day life. Perhaps his lack of focus, scattered ambitions, and inability to bring anything to fruition coincide with his increasing drug abuse and addiction. wapo.st/44Cx4Vi

So Hegseth ordered the pause in weapons to Ukraine? Or is this the official throwing him under the bus? Might be another explanation. More Scaramuccis than I thought he’d last.

This is a great list, compiled by asking more than 500 directors, actors, influential Hollywood people for their favourite films of the 21st Century. Includes links to reviews and further recommendations if you enjoyed a movie. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Hope I’m wrong. I thought this would be either the new public gallows or all nicely paved to make clean up easier after the firing squads.

Saturday laundry question please. I hear a lot of people swear by Tide. But there’s about 16 different formulas. Anyone recommend a favourite please?

The best thing I read today. Hoping and praying that this gets Musk and Trump’s attention. www.esquire.com/news-politic...

This one cracks me up. My first pup as an adult - and that’s not my cat. This neighbour kitty used to crawl along the outside of the building into my second story apartment. I would find them playing in my place when I got home from work.

The Better Sister on Prime. I love this actress, Lorraine Toussaint (Orange is the New Black, Selma). I would LOVE to talk about this scene - Black women and white women. 🔥 Pretty good show. Elizabeth Banks (she’s become a powerhouse producer!) and Jessica Biel produced and star.

Movie recommendation: The Rule of Jenny Pen
