Police Officers 🇨🇦...do amazing work in a dangerous world. Pay 'em what they deserve plus, 15% annual tax-free annual bonuses I say.
Toronto police want a budget hike to pay for raises and more officers. Here’s how much it would cost

I know I'm showing my whole age here but remember that thrill of getting a mixtape from someone? A mix of music that they made just for you?

Hero...what a brave man? Thank you Mr. Shay. Thank you very much for your service and sacrifice. 🙏
It is with great sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Native American veteran Charles Norman Shay. He was 101. Charles was a 19-year-old US Army medic when he landed on Omaha Beach on D-Day and helped save lives. He died at his home in Bretteville-L'Orgueilleuse, here in Normandy.

Entirely remote work means less training and opportunity for advancement, especially for younger workers, new research suggests. Here's what economists say.

Happy is nice. Winning would be nicer. ⚾️🇨🇦⚾️
All would agree this has been an exhilarating run for the Blue Jays and a tremendously fun season
No matter what happens tonight, they have made fans happy. Enjoy it and most of all enjoy the run because they don’t happen very often
Sports is supposed to be an escape, this has been a great one

Why luxury EV sales are still in first gear
High prices that are hard to justify and a Chinese preference for cheaper runarounds account for the sluggish demand

Highly enjoyable series and movie. One of my all time favorites.
My belated, kinda' scattered thoughts on the final #DowntonAbbey film are now up.
Overall, a comfy two hour goodbye to one of the greatest series of all time; albeit it doesn't fully justify its existence:
