I'm watching HEATED RIVALRY, and I'm sorry, but there is no way Montreal would ever have a hockey team called "the Metros."

Jackie Robinson is a baseball legend, and the path to immortality began with the Montreal Royals. It was there he got his first taste of professional baseball and the city adored him.
He described his time in Montreal as living in paradise.

Rewatched STRICTLY BALLROOM last night and we really should put more dancers in films and just...film them. It's quite magical. I'll never understand how we handed the editing of musicals and dance films over to overcaffeinated hummingbirds.

This week, Russia launched about 1,300 strike drones, more than 1,200 guided aerial bombs & 50 missiles, almost all of which were ballistic.
The main targets of the strikes are energy infrastructure & residential buildings.

If you like making love to music, put on a live album. That way, you get applause every two to four minutes.

Good to see Kyiv Mayor Vitali Kiltschko giving Russia’s invasion the correct genocidal framing amid all the delusional talk of negotiations and compromise peace. Putin currently has zero intention of ending the war

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

“Russia is trying to kill our light.” Zelenskyy said repair crews work under shelling in −20°C to restore power, and there are “no gray zones” in this fight. Ukraine needs enough air defense for a safe sky—and real security guarantees for a dignified peace.
