    Can we now openly support independence for Puerto Rico and Hawaii if el presidente is not even going to try to hide interference in elections in #alberta and #quebec ? #canada https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/quebec-election-interference-9.7358685

    Someday we&#39;ll all fondly remember this week as the time when we could go back to wearing pants without feeling hot and uncomfortable. #kentucky

    We Ontarians are supposed to stand together, but it blows my mind that a professional reprobate like Sean Avery has been in three Christopher Nolan films since retiring from the #NHL. Shoresy, yes, that made perfect sense and was pretty entertaining. #hnom https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1936239/

    Now that what&#39;s done is done, I think I can re-engage with this team and start looking forward to next season. Pete Walker has got a couple of projects in Jose Soriano, to a lesser extent, and Spencer Arrighetti, but fixing starters is what he does about as well as anybody. It&#39;s been a rough summer for us in Birdland North if you&#39;d like to get out your tiny violin. #bluejays #mlb

    Just wondering how you get thought of as a foreign policy “expert” despite supporting policies that consistently backfire or lead the country into quagmire. Self-nomination, backed up by a weak press? #uspol #LindseyGraham

    If your country is one of those ones where they charge to use the bathroom, shouldn’t there be separate rates for ones and twos? A buck for a piss is kind of steep when there are historic fountains all over the place. #czechia #Europe

    Hey kids. This is what work feels like most days, but don’t worry because it only lasts 40 years or so. Have fun!

    I&#39;ll be setting foot on home soil in #Canada this Saturday for the first time in three years, so being greeted with a red carpet, ticker tape, a 20 box of Timbits, and a cold pint of St-Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale would be pretty nice. Thanks in advance!

    I’m guessing 95% of my fellow Americans are unaware of or indifferent to this, but let me ask how we would feel if an IRGC hacker or sleeper cell took out one of our power or water treatment plants. These acts are war crimes and a boatload of admin members will need to face trial for this some day. #uspol https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/07/18/world/iran-war-strikes-trump-hormuz?unlocked_article_code=1.ylA.LoDL.LkX9oy59T56M&amp;smid=nytcore-ios-share

    At this point in the match and the tournament, the #England hydration break menu should be two pints each of Carling. #worldCup

    If you&#39;re one of those diehards who complains about &quot;hydration breaks&quot;, you have to do it every single time, right, even as everyone around you tunes your blowhard take out? From the perspective of a middle aged man, I quite like having 3 minutes to go take a leisurely piss and not miss any of the match. Get over yourselves. #worldcup

    Future President Andy Beshear popped in my workplace this morning--not to my campus, but right to my building, and maybe 30 feet from where I now sit--but I was too busy clacking away here to notice and didn&amp;#39;t get a selfie and a handshake. Woops... #uspol

    With all sympathy to Ankara, It&#39;s a hard no on Article 5 if these feckless idiots in DC try to invoke it after and Iran fired a missile at Turkey as retaliation for a war the US and Israel started. #uspol
