The TTC is held together by shoe string, bubblegum, and prayers. Using it is a lottery of despair.

He’s a three, but has a pair of stainless steel truck nuts hanging off the back of his Jeep Wrangler.

I think Ted Lasso is the greatest Apple product ever made.

I just bought a nintendo switch. I’ve not owned a Nintendo since the original NES. I’m playing Breath of the Wild for the first time. I’ve not played a Zelda since the original. I’m totally floored. I’ve never had this much fun playing a foraging/hunting/cooking sim.

As a huge, life long @EdmontonOilers fan who lives in Toronto, it has been a gruelling season of games starting at 9/10pm (as always). Today? Only game on is Oilers/Vegas, and its at 10pm EST. Seriously? C’mon @NHL. Game is in Edmonton. Why the late start?

There’s a lot of things that suck about a 20% layoff. One of them is you keep stumbling across deactivated slack profiles of people you worked with, need to talk to, etc. It’s a treasure hunt of grief.

The @NHL has tried desperately to find a nemesis to McDavid. Right now that’s Eichel. 1v2 in the playoffs. But the real nemesis is right there. It’s Messier to Gretzky. Imagine if/when Drai and McD play on separate teams. As if Crosby/Ovi played together then separately.

In these times i remind myself that all things are temporary, for better or for worse. And while this is temporary for the better, it still stings. While i “survived”, it still seems like the end of an era. Things will change. There will be more temporary. But what a 5 years. ❤️

It’s a sad day in @shopify. Some people I’ve worked with for five years, some of the OGs of @shop were let go. Some of these people are so close to my heart i think of them as siblings. If you are hiring, and are interested in some incredible, talented, lovely humans, ping me.

The @EdmontonOilers need to erect a statue of Joey at Moss Pit, assuming his family approves. He’s one of the greatest oilers of all time and every time i see him sing the national anthem my heart bleeds. Do it.

That hour you spend debugging why your Reanimated animation isn't working, and you realise you set the duration to 2 instead of 2,000.

Question: I didn’t pay much attention to the inflationary periods of the 80s and 90s back in the day because i was a kid. But did prices every go back down a bit when it was done? Or are we in a new base line with this inflationary period?

To reiterate a solid piece of wisdom my friend said during a debate one night about a former colleague: “You. Don’t. Fuck. Kids.” Anybody who tries to defend this with ANY argument, that’s what you say. We’re all adults. This shouldn’t need to be said.

So… what’s the twitter alternative? There must be something being built. I think the only reason why anybody is still here is because a viable alternative hasn’t sprouted up yet. But when it does… oh my. That’ll be the death nail, i reckon.
