if you don’t know the history of Dodger Stadium you can’t fully understand what unfolded today. thanks @chrislhayes.bsky.social for the opportunity to share it.

I'm excited I'm going to be travelling to remote/fly-in communities as part of my new job (career).

I got terminated (without cause) from a job that was supposed to have guaranteed funding until 2027 (4ppl/half the team got let go). I have pay until Mid-July (and am eligible for EI)... I am torn between mass applying for any job I'm remotely qualified for, or taking my time

Suddenly having a teenager at the same time as end of fiscal has been wild. I need to take some vacation days.

As someone who lived on #PEI for 5 years, and visits family on PEI still (my in-laws). I say remove the bridge toll for Islanders, and increase it for non-Maritimers (I don't think NB and NS folks should pay the same as Quebec and west). It's just part of tourism.

In Dec 2012, I visited Germany & Austria for my birthday and Christmas with my partner & his family (we'd been dating 8 months). My (now) mother-in-law took me to Ulla Popken to find a bathing suit, and I also bought 3 pairs of underwear (black, white, red).

In the 20+ years I've had frequent trips to the ER, and admissions to the hospital, today is the first day I've experienced hallway medicine. There's about 15 people (including the person I am with who was admitted at 9pm last night, 12hrs ago) waiting for a bed.

I got rid of our Netflix, Prime, StackTV, CityTV (through Prime) ummm and some other channel. Essentially we were paying almost $40/ month. We still have Crunchyroll directly from them and I have 3 month trial of APTN's Lumi. I tried RiverTV but you can't fast forward so I cancelled.

Canada doesn't allow convicted predators into our nation. This initiative from NDP leader Jagmeet Singh to bar Trump from the G7 will send a clear message.

#AntiFlag could re-release the song Welcome to 1984 (released in 2007), with updated lyrics and not have to update any of the lyrics.

Me all through my childhood, teens, twenties, and early 30s (even after experiencing trauma): I wouldn't wish death on anyone!
Me, turning 40 this year: *glances around at the causes of huge human rights violations* I mean... I'm just saying... maybe it would be for the best?

Does anyone have any tricks on how to cancel a flight on #AirCanada when their app and website just give errors? (Maybe due to overuse currently?). I've been on hold for almost 2 hours (which is understandable, I'm just wondering if there's an alternative)

Apparently #AirCanada doesn't know the difference between #ThunderBay and #Winnipeg. I was on a flight from Thunder Bay (not to or through Winnipeg) and it was cancelled (not AC's fault)... so they sent me vouchers for meals in Winnipeg to use in the next 72hrs.

Cancelled all Amazon-related subscriptions (KU, Prime, StackTV, Crunchyroll, and CityTV) and Netflix. Going to get direct from CityTV and CrunchyRoll, and just enrolled in Kobo Unlimited. We went from around $56/month to $30. Day two of the trade war and I'm saving money. #DivestFromTheUS

Has anyone used #Wellamoon or any other #SleepPatches ? Curious about your experience (I'm a chronic poor sleeper. Like... for decades. Have tried pretty much everything, including prescription meds). It either doesn't work or makes me groggy AF. I periodically like to try new things for funsies
