Toronto Star columnist, nice guy, jump shooter.
Christine Sinclair rarely spoke about her mom during Sinclair's iconic soccer career. In a new animated short film (narrated by
@vancityreynolds.bsky.social
), the depth of feeling is clear. Sinclair didn't figure it out until the end, but she played for her mom.

Christine Sinclair once lived with the weight of Canadian soccer. Now she’s living in her legacy
Almost three years since her final match with the Canadian national team, Sinclair seems free. And she’s sharing more of her personal story.

Doug Ford balked on his home building promises / & reforms by giving in to his nimby base, people who are also afraid of people without homes. Good luck Ontario.

The entire history of the conservative movement is rich white people watching democracy in action and the culture moving forward and being like “that’s not fair.”

They’ve destroyed the freedoms and dignities of the American republic we all enjoyed for the last 50 years. We’ll have to build something new in its place. And we’ll have to be willing to expand the court, add states, and send people to jail as part of that.

Bari Weiss offered Anderson Cooper a bigger role at CBS News, but he chose to leave 60 Minutes instead. "I'd prefer less rather than more of you." It's a hard message to miss. I'll say it again: She had no detectable experience in broadcast news. Hers was a political hire. From

I worked on the USAID Ebola response in 2014 and one of the biggest early lessons learned in that response was that supporting safe and dignified burial of people who had died of Ebola was perhaps the most impactful programs we funded.

Trump is putting no effort into becoming less unpopular but a TON into putting elements of a coup in place. Some of them may remain invisible, but the ones we can see point to his general approach: violent intimidation + corrupt judges + executive branch and congressional coconspirators + bribes.

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.
