God bless us, everyone.

@rebeccaonion.bsky.social nails it ⬇️ Being smug about having a minimalist, anti-consumerist 3-year-old is like being smug that your 8-year-old is a non-smoker. Too soon to tell.

Annual reminder that, if you live in Toronto, this is the week of the earliest sunset: 4:40pm. On December 14, sun sets at 4:41pm. By January 10, sun sets at 5:00pm. Things are getting brighter, we just can't feel it yet. Keep going.

At COP30 Canada just got awarded the fossil of the day — first time since 2014 (the harper years). Clear sign of how Carney’s pro fossil fuel agenda and backsliding on climate policy is being noticed internationally.

Guess the naughty little sister. #caturday

Birthday portrait. #Caturday

I support this journalist's bravery, and you should, too.

Charlie Kirk was a hatemonger. Salute to @espiers.bsky.social's magnificent tribute, the only obit I want to read today. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

The left isn’t “dancing on Charlie Kirk’s grave,” we’re just pointing out that, thanks to rhetoric like his, a lot of other graves exist.

Banksy should mass-produce this stencil and drop 100s of them in every city in the UK. In a week, you shouldn't be able to walk down a street without seeing this piece of art. What a statement that would be.

i wonder if there was a menswear writer in 1914 who, shortly after writing an article on how to wear pants, went outside and saw a newspaper headline read "Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Assassinated" and he thought "hm, prob not good"

Actually, Frankenstein is a doctor success at the Venice film festival

Sometime in the early aughts I threw away my gold paperback copy, not predicting I’d have a kid who would also go through an Anne Rice phase.

Don't be grumpy about people using parks. Make more parks! The current level of parks is clearly not keeping up with demand (and was largely established at a time when the population was much smaller). www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

This baby has a secret smiley dreamlife. Happy #Caturday

Cicadas screaming their fool heads off. Lake is warm. Music in the park. Peak Toronto August.

Isn’t it, though? Surprise me, Mark Carney. I dare you. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like it’s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster you’d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals won’t talk about their missing kids

Let it be known I will never tire of @dieworkwear.bsky.social dunking on John Tory.

We won! ✊ In a landmark decision, the Ontario Superior Court ruled in favour of advocates in our challenge, finding the Ontario government's actions violated Canadians' Charter rights under Section 7. Big win for cycling and safety in Toronto @cycletoronto.bsky.social 👏 bit.ly/4odZUUF

ProPublica spoke to about 150 people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.” We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words. ➡️ This is what they wrote: projects.propublica.org/impact-of-ho...

My advice: don't mess with Fogo. They cling on the edge of the known world, and live by their own code. Go there, it's amazing.

I was wrong, precedented times are also bad

King Charles has the opportunity to do the funniest thing today

New from ‪@mikepmoffatt.bsky.social‬. Guess which province scored the lowest? Read the report: moreandbetterhousing.ca/2025/05/26/r...

When BUT WHAT ABOUT CHINA? from Canadian climate deniers starts to hit differently...

Could this be the biggest climate story of the year? For the first time on record, China's emissions are falling due to clean energy growth, not slow power demand Full analysis + outlook by Lauri Myllyvirta: www.carbonbrief.org/... 1/7

Rapid cuts in methane emissions from the energy sector are critical to limiting near-term warming and keeping the 1.5°C goal within reach. But the @iea.org’s 2025 Global Methane Tracker shows that global emissions remain high, and are ~80% higher than what govs report. bsky.app/profile/iea....

Cars, trucks & SUVs have become driver weapons. Sometimes intentionally, sometimes in the way streets & vehicles are designed. We should admit that we are very much OK w a certain amount of death & life-changing injuries in order to not inconvenience driving. My column this week. Pls read n share.

ooo she sounds smart and hot wonder if she has a name!!!

hi @cbsnews.com by name is marisa kabas and i publish the handbasket. please add to your story along with a link to this. www.thehandbasket.co/p/us-rwanda-...

There’s a measles outbreak in the Canadian province of Ontario that’s twice the size of the one in Texas. Over 1000 people are sick. Why isn’t this getting more media attention? People need to be informed of the risk & how to protect themselves. Vaccinate, wear a respirator, isolate when sick.

the Canadian election sort of feels like watching your next-door neighbour sit down butt-ass naked on top of a hot stove and then being asked if you would like to go next or if you're good to just stay where you are

My girl Frankie is always doing takes-to-camera, Jim Halpert style, to make sure we know what she has to put up with. #Caturday

Needed some humor this morning.

When I say you don’t have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you don’t ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.

Nonsense copied from the US. It doesn't help there; it won't help here; it's very expensive and utterly pointless. Want to reduce crime? Try a guaranteed basic income, decent jobs, good infrastructure, good education -- reduced desperation, in short. globalnews.ca/news/1112337...

I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold

Dude you are just embarrassing yourself at this point

an incredibly cursed headline www.eenews.net/articles/big...

Happy Trans Day of Visibility. 🏳️‍⚧️ Thank you to all the trans people in my life for being yourselves, and for making the full spectrum of gender experience visible to all. Shine on! 😀🌼☀️

Mark Carney now the yardstick against which all other world leaders to be judged? Would recommend Starmer take a salutary shot of maple syrup and a light beaver-grease massage before replying to Trump.

I have a new piece out in Write or Die Magazine, just in case you need some helpful tips for creating the most stunningly ineffective writers’ group the world has ever known

Super glad to know that the Cybertruck owners of North America are having a bit of a shit time. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

@netflix.com is like a needy ex, telling me he had a dream about me last night and wondering if he might see me around.

Hey Montreal, do you have a couch you are willing to let some random BC guy sleep on the weekend of the National Newspaper Awards (April 25/26)? If so, please give me a shout.
