My Dinner with Big Naturals

An early covid loss for us was The New York Café, in Toronto. A greek diner that was my favourite greasy spoon for at least a decade, though it was around much longer. The eggs benedict and spinach and feta omelettes will live forever in my memory.

please tell me about your favorite lost restaurant (closed for at least 5 years, like I really want you to go back into the vault), why you loved it and what you ate there

As a Blue Jays fan, I thought this was a very belated playoffs rant.
we will reach the heat death of the universe before we come to an agreement on what a catch is

The CBC has just posted a transcript of my recent As it Happens interview about X and Grok. I’m posting a couple of screen shots here - since they are a bit too long for alt text, I’ll post the link to the full transcript below. #cdnpoli #X #Grok #yeg #CSAM

"Did you see what Mark Cuban posted? Oh did you see the clapb—"

You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

This morning:

"Do you want to go to the farmer's market tomorrow?"

"Farmer's market is only on Sunday."

"Sure, and it's Saturday."

"...I have no ability to dispute that."
The holidays are great, I've asked myself what day it is today approximately ten times and I'm still not sure I could tell you

Love this — organ tuners as accidental climate historians
NEW: Organ tuners have been leaving temperature and humidity records in little-known books for decades. 🎹

They reveal how temperatures inside churches have changed over time due to climate change and increased heating.

A new scoop for The Reengineer!

Church organ tuning records mirror our warming climate
The records appear to reflect climate change, as well as the increased heating of churches in winter

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Apparently all you needed to do to predict the NYC election results was read that one N.K. Jemisin novel.

Dead silence in the minivan as they're all watching risqué reels from the girls they'll mandatory have dates with after they finish rounding up the illegals...
Imagine these losers hyping each other up all day long in their sad minivan as they travel from middle schools to hospitals to throw people who are at most a foot shorter than them to the ground
