Recent trip to the peninsula was great for many reasons and food was # 2. I learned that Korean sashimi involves leafy sandos and dipping sauce, and that Korean people get secretly disappointed if you don't cram the whole thing into your mouth with gusto.

The Oxford comma is like the flaps on an airplane. There are times when you can and should use it, but using it all the time would create unnecessary drag.

I baked a hot take:
The #BlueJays logo would look way more fire without the maple leaf, which looks like a sticker someone applied. People get it, we can leave the flag bit out.

This is bad. Bad like when Obama authorized the offshore drone slaying of a U.S. citizen and his kin with no due process kind of bad. Come to think of it, Nixon and Kissinger bombing Cambodia wasn't much good either. It's almost as though this is a thing that American presidents do now and again.
People are going to trial over these almost certainly.

I often post the air when it's bad, but it hasn't been bad since it was hot. Those super bad air days are a mystery to me. Traffic volume hasn't changed, so is it a function of the heat? Prevailing winds bringing junk over from the continent?
