the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Idiotically lost my wallet last night, only to have an amazingly nice couple show up at my door an hour later with it, fully intact, after finding it on the sidewalk. There's still light out there, people.

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

Age yourself with a movie you saw in a theatre as a kid.

What a weird way to find out RFK Jr is the Tylenol poisoner.

Today is the 35th anniversary of the Coen Brothers' best film. A top 5 all time one for me.

If the mayor of #vancouver is so very serious about transparency about the income of public servants, he should let us see what his Bitcoin income has looked like since he has been in office. #vanpoli

if u see this quote with the energy u bring to blue sky

"I can't believe the calls were coming from inside the house," declared the folks absolutely sure the calls were coming from somewhere else in town.

This is Uno. He's a handsome devil. #timelinecleanse

Any other lyrics— don’t even try chronic town murmur or reckoning btw— just form vowels and syllables, and mean it

I just ate a pumpkin spice donut like I'm some white lady in a big scarf on a crisp autumn day.

The only thing to understand about the pronoun thing is that just because something is outside of your lived experience doesn’t mean it’s not real or the person telling you is mistaken or you are being inconvenienced

40 years ago today I wanted to watch #LiveAid but we had a family day trip to go on, so most of it I couldn't see until DECADES later. No VCR, no YouTube, just no way of seeing it.

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

"I did not have sex with a couch, I had sex with couch cushions"

Quote this with a great TV father.

This has been a brutal week for musical geniuses.

"We were not notified about the urgent motion that Vancouver City Hall voted on this afternoon. While we understand the City’s desire to create space for collective mourning and healing, it is critical that this process centres the voices of the families and affected communities."

Also holy shit the Mariners Pride Month video is SO good

Best Star Trek crew, wrong answers only.

Hey, if you’re at a rep screening, you really don’t need to titter, laugh and/or guffaw every time a character does something. Something being dated doesn’t make it automatically hilarious. Watch more movies, I dunno.

Out on the road today I saw a bricked Cybertruck on Cambie Street A little voice in my head said "28 children and I are laughing at you", meat(head). www.irishstar.com/news/us-news... #cybertruck

White smoke? Can only assume that Cardinal Chunder got the votes.

Myyy bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R My bologna has a second name it's M-E-Y-E-R Oh I love to eat it everyday...

For Lithgow’s analogy to work, imagine if Dahl had used his public platform and hundreds of thousands of pounds to make policy and law more hostile to Jews and become the world’s most influential antisemite

Re-watching Season 1 of "Andor" before Season 2 drops next week and boy does it have extra resonance now

If it's smartphones causing this why aren't teenage girls murdering their peers

Happy #IdesofMarch!

Would have been Jack Lemmon’s hundredth birthday today. Not just one of the great actors, but also possessor of the best gravestone in existence.

No cheating. Your last saved celebrity pic is your therapist.

Happened upon a random episode of Happy Days featuring Chuck, not played by the usual actor, but the one who only played him twice. This is what it must have felt like to have seen Halley's Comet.

I am happy to see this.
