Watching the USMNT go out like this after the way Canada and Mexico fought for their lives really sucks.

I won’t say it is ‘very Canadian’ as that oversells our complexities in sport, but Canada’s greatest day *by far* in men’s soccer yesterday was shadowed by a dreadful injury (broken leg for Kone). Players said they *heard* the snap. That’s haunting, even to read about. But 6-0 is a wonder.

This is now the GIF of the entire tournament. Don't @ me

Allez les rouge!

I haven’t been trashing MLS on AppleTV enough this year. I hate that you cant’ tune to a game 15 minutes for kickoff. I want to put the game on and go wash some dishes and hear it switch over. Then I remembered it was on TSN so now I’m watching rodeo

we all know I have no life, so:

okay, here we go... Here are my picks for the 30 most exciting SFF titles coming out in the first half of the year! There are a LOT of beautiful books coming up—it's gonna be a really good year for spec fic reactormag.com/30-sff-title...

The profits from fraudulent prices are ongoing and huge, the government provides little oversight or testing for consumer protection, and the fines are a joke. No wonder big grocers carry on ripping us off. www.cbc.ca/news/investi...

I’m completely sick and tired of hearing about HP but this article is excellent. “What you feel in your heart towards the series is almost entirely irrelevant. What matters is what you do, because J. K. Rowling is out there doing a lot of things.” defector.com/its-time-to-...

Can we give Flores a card for that hair?

I realize we are probably starting CBs 5 &6 on the depth chart, but this is shocking defending

Remind me again why we started Millar and not Priso?!

Apropos of nothing, every educator in Ontario returned from March Break to find a vague but threatening email from the Minister of Education, Paul Calandra in their inbox.

It is so so easy to hate Miami. They deserve it. Give in to the dark side

In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

Happy birthday to Anna McGarrigle, born on this day in 1944 in Montreal! The sister of Kate McGarrigle, the duo released 14 albums together. A Juno Award winner, she was also awarded the Order of Canada. Anna and Kate sang The Log Driver's Waltz for the NFB short.

So uh… that was something terrible for the anthems in San Diego right?

Today’s xkcd made me cry. In a good way. xkcd.com/3172/

On the anniversary of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, I always think of T. D. Mischke's '90s radio interview with a historian, who Mischke surprises by *singing every question* to the Lightfoot tune. The historian gamely gives straight answers! (at 8:00) www.mischkemadness.com/audiofiles/t...

FIFA Puskas Award nominee at the #CanPL final, why the heck not 🥶🚲 📹 OneSoccer

@totallyshow.bsky.social @acjimbo.bsky.social anyone still up and watching the Canadian Premier League Final between Atletico Ottawa and Cavalry FC?

Football in Canada🥶 #CanPL Final

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

To this day, Doug Ford has gotten away scot-free with both encouraging the scam strip-mall colleges that led to this mess, the destruction of the legitimate international student system, and his dismantling of Ontario's post-secondary institutions writ-large. HOLD THE FUCKING PREMIERS TO ACCOUNT!

what if instead of sports we chose happiness

Rendezvous on the Beach, by Edvard Munch, 1896

That $1,000-a-plate fundraiser for Labour Minister Piccini? Suddenly “cancelled.” Apparently due to a personal commitment—which sounds a lot like realizing Ontarians are done watching PC donors cash in on public funds. If there’s nothing wrong, why pull the plug? #ONpoli

PLEASE

It's always good to see priests who still remember there are *seven* Catholic social principles. Also, that noise you hear is the USCCB screeching to the Vatican and getting back nothing, lol

I'm participating in Walk a Mile this weekend. A fundraiser for Cornerstone, the local agency involved in the fighting violence against women. Any support would be much appreciated! And yes those are my legs www.justgiving.com/page/branden...

Air Canada flight attendants have overwhelmingly rejected a deal on a new collective agreement, with 99.1% of flight attendants voting "no"

People living with #HIV continue to face stigma & discrimination. Watch Dr Mateo explain the science behind ZERO risk of HIV transmission when people take effective treatment & have undetectable viral load & why we need to destigmatize HIV.

If Bluesky fails to become big enough for people to extract money from it and just remains a platform where people talk to each other, sharing unimportant nonsense most of the time... good. That's all most of us wanted in the first place. That's what social media should be.

Twelve years (and 2.1 billion views) ago, when my brother and I decided that we could make videos that could maybe help people in their high school and college educations and then give them away for free, no one was there to tell us we were crazy, and I am very glad for that...🧵

How relevant is TFC in Toronto you ask? #TFCLive

With CBC now having called all ridings it's time for the land-vs-people-vote animation.

Everyone I know is happy that PP lost his seat.

Poilievre losing his seat is almost Shakespearean: Pretender to the throne riles countrymen with anger, gets defeated by guy with Joy in his name. It’s basically Macbeth.

Everyone watching Pierre Poilievre eat absolute shit in Carleton and respecting Canada's bilingual culture.

The highs and lows of Kosi Thompson. Goal line clearance and them gives away a penalty. #TFCLive
