Pretty wild that a DUI has harsher consequences for a physician than raping another human.
Another case of prioritizing a man’s potential over the safety of women: doctor doesn’t lose license bc he supposedly only raped one woman and he had glowing reviews from colleagues

If Bad Bunny was serious about uniting Americans, he would have given his Grammy to Donald Trump.

So I kept the SDM Cerave lotion as it was still a great price, but returned the vit C serum. Poor cashier took the serum out of the box and ignored my pleas for him to stop as he twisted the cap fully closed, spoiling the product by opening it. Shoppers Drug Mart lost the sale and the product.
Note to self, never base in-store Shoppers Drug Mart purchases on its website marketing. The prices are always many dollars cheaper on the website. The store will never honour online pricing. You can buy online and request pick-up at the same store charging $$ more per item. *Returns stuff to SDM*

I'm going to assume Seattle won and be happy for the best side of the continent.

I don't have cable...or a tv. As a CAian, there's no nice commercials as the CA licensed broadcaster fills the segments with its regular trash

I'll see whatever pirated version of the halftime show the NFL hasn't nerfed by the time I find it. I'll also have a list of commercials to find on youtube.

16 years ago, at the 2010 Vancouver-Whistler Olympics, Lindsay Vonn won Gold and it was her teammate Stacey Cook who crashed.

I remember this because I was the person under the helicopter who airlifted her to the hospital.

Wow. Who knew we were born the same year. I should stop assuming people's ages.

oooh we are posting super bowls?

As a specialist in Islamic ceramics *cracks knuckles* I present this fabulous 11th c. lustre painted bowl from Fatimid Cairo depicting a Coptic priest. Its white glaze imitates Chinese porcelain and the lustre technique was invented in Iraq a century earlier.

/3 Bad Bunny is an American citizen, but he could have been born on Plymouth Fucking Rock and he would still fall on the “immigrant” side of the “immigration divide” to Trump and his WaPo toadies.

I'm going to try a Kraft Caramel every 10 minutes for nourishment on tomorrow's long run.

If they work, I'll stop buying gels for the rest of my life...unless GU Energy returns coffee liquidenergy packs to Canada, because those are the best.

I was wearing socks from two different pairs today at my MRI. They were the same colour, but had different patterns. As I realized this, I was told it was very stylish.

This is apparently on the wall at Team Canada’s workout room.

Big fan of this. (Alt text for easier reading.)

Also, I took my first phone call on my watch while phone-less. It was even a legitimate call to confirm Saturday's MRI. I like this watch already and I still have no idea what it is fully capable of.

Today I learned that in numerous local supermarkets, Kraft Dinner costs more than Amy's Organic mac and cheese (in various configurations).

I remember KD when you could buy 12 for $1 in Canada.

I remember first seeing Amy's when I lived in Colorado and it seemed to be a $2.50 luxury food option

Well, this is exciting. I now have "power data" for my runs.

I just remembered that I return to Pilates tomorrow, after two months off. I’m going to be destroyed.

And one of the first survivors to step forward to try to stop Epstein? A trans woman, who was promptly mocked and villified by the New York Post, New York Magazine, the courts and law enforcement.

this story is amazing
Ralph Lazo was a Latine teen who volunteered to go to a Japanese concentration camp to be in solidarity with his friends. When he turned himself in to authorities, they thought he was Japanese. “Being brown has its advantages,” he would later tell the LA Times.

We can learn a lot from Catherine O'Hara: live your life in such a way that you get eulogized by your family, friends, colleagues, coworkers, the dictionary, Chicago O'Hare Airport...
