Ukrainian skeleton slider Vladyslav Heraskevych will not be allowed to wear a helmet depicting victims of the Russia-Ukraine war, but after a meeting Monday night, the IOC will let him wear a black armband during competition. This is considered a compromise.

Frustrating weekend. Frustrating night at hockey; couldn't even break a sweat skating bc everyone brought their damn toddlers (family skate is NEXT week >_<). Frustrating checking scrollback and seeing a lot of re-posting of shitty people + subposts on drama I'm better off never learning about.

Oh my God, I hope this isn't because I made fun of them

This bill is up for clause-by-clause in Senate committee today. Here is a great breakdown of the bill and why it's very, very bad.

Having a rough week over here (who isn't? I know ;_;). Not world ending, hopefully, just pretty shitty. Hit me with your fav gaming tunes, OSTs, heck any song from anyone that makes you feel something!!! Gonna make me a new playlist and need your help! 🎶

Five-year-old me: Oooh, that Batman cartoon! What adventures will he go on today? *the villain is left in tears, unable to process their fears and obsessions. And Batman, a looming presence born of the inability to rationalize terror, is the only one there to comfort them* Me: Oh. Huh.

Reminder that #BillS209 will be brought up this week on February 4-5, so please call/e-mail/mail your Senators and tell them to OPPOSE this bill! Don’t let them take away our privacy! #SaveSpeech #StopS209

What? shit. I relied on that a ton!! Absolutely critical for finding slop-free How To videos ;_; (and also non-'upscaled' OSTs)

what else can you possibly say but

"Cuts! Stoked about the Olympics??!" uhhh <hides party pooper hat>, gonna be swamped so I'll prob catch highlights, I think? .... yeah, let's go with that. And I feel bad! Happy for the athletes!! Everyone I used to train with aren't in anymore, but I'm long jaded about the whole enterprise :(

Some shinny friends are going to the Ontario Senior Games and wanted a game vs. very strong players as a warm up. Thought everyone knew I agreed to play! Hit the ice for warmup and immediately hear "OH FUCK". Hard to respond to that in the moment, lmao. You feel kinda bad but also flattered :D

Oh my god, is this because we bullied Adobe off this platform

You can still use the app. You just can't... use... the app.

Few months ago, as a response to the frequent complaints on genAI, Pinterest added an option to opt out of seeing AI-generated content. This option is now gone; instead, you can edit your "GenAI interests." Despite turning off everything, my feed is now filled with AI slop. (1/3)

Don’t worry guys, everything is very cool and normal at the Wegman’s parking lot!

Before 2025 ended I added a TON more terms to my mute list for sanity reasons. Boy oh boy was checking scrollback the last ~24hrs confusing af. Life was better before I caught up with news 🙃

The aftermath of the Greater Toronto Area's historic snowstorm looked stunning from space this week.

imagine being so good at a crime that they actually rename the crime after you, like if you were so great at doing murders nobody called it "getting murdered" anymore but instead called it "getting [your name]d." For Charles Ponzi, this is no mere hypothetical

The Ford government continues asset-stripping the Province of Ontario in service of its cronies. Once again, developers benefit while the public, the environment and endangered species lose. #OnPoli

If you give Mario a happy meal he glitches out and gets weird, that's why you never see a McDonald's in a mainline game

Ms Bea is making a great point here. One of the aspects of my career that has most turned me into an armchair psychologist is the way Gamers (capital for a reason) take a negative review of a game they liked as a criticism of them as people. If anyone knows books on this topic I’d love suggestions.

💔 The snowbank created by the snowplows turned the guardrail into a ramp, launching the vehicles over the top and falling to the roadway below. Changes in snow removal practices need to be made. www.ctvnews.ca/kitchener/ar...

good luck, babe

And Sepp Blatter knows a thing or two about corruption.

Letter mail is counted by a staffer! They literally have to count (and open!) letter mail that comes their way. Emails and online petitions can be more easily ignored.

Thanks for this hot tip! I've sent off an email to my MP. A reminder to Canadians that you can send letter mail to any member of Parliament for FREE. No stamp necessary! Just pop that bad boy in the mail.

too accurate
