    We lost a dear friend today. Senator Elaine McCoy, former Cabinet Minister in the Lougheed government. She loved her whiskey straight, her cigarettes strong and her politics hardcore. She liked people to speak their minds, and she liked free thinking eccentrics best

    Listening to BBC News right this second and the entire EU is dealing with the *exact* same Pfizer delays and struggling with the complications as to how to manage the second doses... It isn't just Canada, guys. Hang tight and keep doing what we've been doing.

    Kid #1 late for online learning due to technical issues. Kid #2 getting teacher reprimands for making jokes at inappropriate times during online learning. Yesterday he had a headache at end of day from too much screen time. How’s your Friday going?

    Realizing the Sandy Hook truthers were probably the first big sign that crazy (inconceivable) conspiracy theories were having mass traction — the precursor to QAnon

    A few minutes ago I was about to correct someone who said that Marjorie Taylor Greene was a Sandy Hook truther and tell them "no, she's a Parkland truther." Turns out...she's both. What a disgrace. What a horrible human being.

    It’s like poorly written pulp fiction 😂

    President Biden has removed the Diet Coke button. When and I interviewed Donald Trump in 2019, we became fascinated by what the little red button did. Eventually Trump pressed it, and a butler swiftly brought in a Diet Coke on a silver platter. It's gone now.
