The start of sharing old posts from that other app, in preparation of moving here full-time. Origin: My old FB account, July 2016.

New Year’s Eve, 2010.

Yes, I’m oodles of fun at parties.
I’m such a huge fan of John Cale that I bought a ticket to this a while ago on the off chance that a bucket of money would magically appear between now and this weekend.
Going to break from this vehicle for the entirety of November.

The metaphoric house is on fire, and I need to focus on my long-desired goal of starting with a clean slate a long, long way away from what has always been a deeply unhappy locale for me.

Lmao what (from today's Breaker newsletter)
Gym “Look the Other Way” Jordan belongs in gaol.
Apparently, this lunatic post from the gilded fascist is real.

Also: “my” ballroom? Not “his” House to begin with.
I’ve been saying for two years now that the Oilers should offload this backend waste, but then they went ahead and overpaid him.
Episodes of The Twilight Zone showing overnight on City!

2. To distract from his own boatload of corruption and cronyism.
That’s some massively expensive recording studio time just to try and off your talent, Mr. Marshall.

Canadian Press interviews Geddy Lee about the Jays as they head into the World Series, and I’m in full agreement with him on this point.

Leafs games are the worst for this sort of sonic pummelling. It doesn’t enhance the game; it ruins it.
I don’t have many CDs or LPs left since the great purge of 2013, but I’m glad I kept this box set.
I remember Don’s television commercials for Gioia Spaghetti!
