Okay, back to my empty and meaningless life.

Well at least we don’t have to watch that WestJet face-paint commercial again

Jays, you won our hearts.

Guys

Went from dying over here to crying over here

Nonononono

Stress-eating these Reese’s pieces is not helping

I actually am not sure I can take this.

Bad call

Can’t breathe

Dee-fence

Canada prays

I would be so ticked off if the people who bought my old house took *that* long to bring over my kid’s diapers.

Karma

I know we’re Canadian but this is not hockey

OMG

Okay Ramipril* don’t fail me now *high blood pressure meds

Paul Molitor - my 1990s baseball crush!

Spare a thought for Toronto Police, who may be dealing with a World Series win🤞on Halloween night ... Go Jays!

Good night sports fans

We’re at the are-you-still-there point of the baseball broadcast

14th inning stretch

Canadian fans to get (brief) exclusive access to Toronto and Vancouver World Cup matches in the next phase of ticket sales. www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/artic...

So much joy in Mudville. And by Mudville, I mean Canada.

Damn

In today's @theglobeandmail.com I wrote about publishing a book about the Israel-Gaza war as it still rages - killing thousands of Palestinians, hostages still in captivity, Gaza in pieces, and Israelis marching in the street calling for an end to it. www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/article...

My book October 7th: Searching for the Humanitarian Middle is out on August 19th (tomorrow). www.penguinrandomhouse.ca/books/786425...

I once had tea with Ozzy Osborne in Victoria, BC. He was lovely. www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/music/i...

How on earth is Playland not open today? (Very specific Vancouver parenting with disappointed kids in tow post.)

Somewhere this weekend, MacKenzie Scott (formerly Bezos) is doing yoga, having a deep-tissue massage, and giving away oodles of money to worthy causes.

What a joy to contribute to this @theglobeandmail.com 101 Canadian albums feature, even if I am slightly gutted that some of my picks didn't make it (eg. Tom Cochrane's Mad Mad World). Have a listen to some great Canadian music. We could all use it these days. www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/music/a...

It is killing me that in this economy, I have to pay the @cityofvancouver.bsky.social $250 for forgetting to tell them on time (I was a few days late) that I live in my (tiny, heavily mortgaged) home and that it is not indeed empty. My bad, but come on!

Guess we’re free to make Friday night plans.

BREAKING: Vance Boelter, the suspect accused of killing a Minnesota state representative and attempting to kill another, is in custody, according to the Associated Press

Damn

Uuuugh

What. A. Game.

This series. Man.

😩

Watching this game is bad for my health.

I don’t like hearing this Edmonton crowd booing the Florida players. But Go Oilers!

Absolutely shocked and saddened to hear about Marc Garneau. I interviewed him in November during his book tour. He was smart and kind and such a mensch. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

Go Oilers.

The feeling of disappointment is too familiar to hurt this much every single year. And yet. Oh Leafs.

Oh God.

Happy Mother's Day, especially to the single moms who have to do the hard work on their own, today and every day. I see you. And so do your kids.

So embarrassing: JD Vance sitting there, giggling like a schoolgirl (with apologies to schoolgirls).
