Ask anyone. I radiate positivity.
For the "real Americans" saying sorry to Canada, my suggestion is: Buy Canadian. Ask for Canadian products and use Canadian suppliers even if it costs more because of tarriffs. Order from Canadians online and take your summer vacation here. That's how you can say sorry. And piss off you know who.

People can disagree on policy, but what grieves me is that so many see everything as a transaction. What do we get in return? No magnanymity, no recognition that the fortunate must help the less fortunate, no sense of common humanity and common good.

When I Google #tech problems, I always get web pages like "Here are 45 things that might be causing your problem. 43 of them can't be fixed by you." And then it turns out to be something else.
Who feels this too? 🤣

Didn't there used to be a rule that you had to have a certain number of big leaguers in the lineup for every spring game -- even the away ones?

Whatever happens with the autocracy to the south, Canada must chart a new course. We can no longer allow ourselves to be so dependent on the US for our prosperity. Let's make more connections to Europe. Let's mend fences with India. Mexico, Brazil, China, Africa, it's a big world.

I have regular adult problems plus problems I didn't even know were things that existed. Like mice are eating my car and my dog's legs keep breaking.

You know what's a good feeling? When you're drinking a drink from a can, and you think you've finished it, but then you check, and there's actually quite a bit left -- that's a good feeling.

It seems like celebrities meet celebrities much more than regular people do. Famous Actor is always like, "I was having dinner and Famous Singer was at the next table so I said hi..." Is it because they go to special famous-people-only restaurants and stores?

I don't understand skinny people. How are you getting through the day without eating your feelings?

I hope I'm wrong, but my gut says the #bluejays plan to make it look like they're trying to win in 25, but really lose so they are "forced" to deal Vlad and Bo at the deadline using the return (plus last year's return) to start a new rebuild. This is just a hunch; please don't @ me for evidence etc.

My least favorite kind of self-help book is the kind where the writer promises to help change your life the way they changed theirs. Except what they did is quit their sh**ty job to become a self-help writer. So if you also don't want to be a self-help writer, it isn't much help.

Well, two out of five is ok, right?
In case you weren’t told today, you are powerful, your voice matters, you are courageous, you are appreciated and you are so loved. Good night. 💙🙏
