On this day in 2010, Chris Haney died. Born in 1950 in Welland, Ontario, he was working for the Montreal Gazette when he co-created Trivial Pursuit with fellow journalist Scott Abbott. To date, the game has sold 100 million copies in 17 languages.

Should def keep focusing on Biden’s health

This all makes a lot of sense. Via @usapolling.bsky.social

Scientists are calling this the most metal shit they’ve ever seen

Trump described the Iran negotiations as a "very complex puzzle" today, which makes me think of this joke: Guy boasts to his wife that he must be a genius, wife asks why. "I just finished that puzzle in six months, but the box said 6-9 years!" www.cbc.ca/news/world/i...

Turns out it was old Jays friend Ben Wagner

Orioles announcer just said there may be a rainout for the next game bc there is so much “celebration liquid” around home plate bc of the walk-off and I think we should bring back phrasing

I could watch successful major league debuts all day long. That, and their parents being all proud is the best.

A tale of two nations. “Trump was played from the moment he landed in Beijing.”

I wonder how much of the cell phone data is the result of people leaving their phones at home for fear of the draconian shit US customs does? Also, so many of these stories refuse to acknowledge that it's about so much more than tariffs and 51st state crap. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

The president having a private business is already very corrupt. The president making his son—who runs that private business—part of an official state visit to China is incredibly corrupt. Bringing his top campaign donor, who also has business interests in China, just makes it even more corrupt.

The White House and Wall Street are acting like the Iran war is going well. But they're wrong. Badly wrong. Trump isn't getting a deal. Iran has the upper hand. And It won't be too long before the economic problems are unignorable. My latest, in @ms.now, with comparison to the 1973 OPEC oil shock.

I, for one, am shocked

This binary question is absurd. Global investment in clean energy is now 2x fossil fuel investment, creating more jobs & economic growth. Meanwhile, Big Oil demands taxpayers fund risky pipelines & carbon capture projects while handing massive profits to shareholders.

This would make for hilariously bad TV if not for the fact I'm soon gonna run out of organs to donate in exchange for gas. It's like if the Fonz just continued finding new reasons to jump the shark for a season and a half.

it's a violation of the NYT's own AI policy, and it's also not disclosed that AI was used to report the article. how many other articles at the @nytimes.com contain AI-generated misinformation that's gone unchecked? www.nytco.com/press/princi...

It's absolutely wild how degraded the most powerful office on the planet has become that this childish behaviour won't even be a blip on the news cycle.

congratulations to AUSTRALIA on winning their first ever world curling championship in mixed doubles australia doesn't even have dedicated curling ice, but their MXD team tours in canada for most of the season and is very good

Lol, no kidding

not that anyone asked but: here are anagrams for player names on the Toronto Blue Jays roster

Feels like the Jays lead the league in warning track outs

The digital age version of watching your odometer roll over

The Blue Jays entered today with a very silly combination of things, with the bases loaded - the highest BA (pitching) - the lowest BA (batting) It's almost impossible for that to keep up, and it won't. But it's very bizarre to see.

Been there

Great reminder for us Jays fans

How did the meaning of "ceasefire" change from "fire ceases" to "some acts of war continue, and there's still some exchanges of fire, maybe it kills some people, but like not as much as before"? What is the official threshold for a ceasefire that is merely "strained" or "uneasy" rather than broken?

In 20-plus years I've covered roughly a dozen or so municipal councils. I can't think of a report title better than this one: "Addressing Frivolous and Vexatious Actions That Impose Unnecessary Burden on Taxpayers" Staff really went deep into the thesaurus for this one.

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

As cathartic as it'd be for western leaders to say out loud what we all know they think, they unfortunately have to be pragmatic. With that in mind, this is a pretty stark comment.

Really not a fan of this new conception of masculinity that’s all whiny entitlement and permissiveness with none of the responsibility.
