Got in a car accident tonight. Wasn't my fault. I was in the right hand lane on a highway and a driver ahead of me in the middle lane decided all of a sudden she REALLY needed to make a hard 90° right hand turn into a mall - from the middle lane! I hit the brakes and horn,

Wow. I did not expect that result. 35% of poll respondents believe there is a connection between the MMR vaccine and autism. Especially surprising since the vaccination rate is something like 90% for one dose and 80% for two doses. Whatever your views on vaccination, this poll

Went out for a few drinks on Friday and cabbed home after. Cabbie gave me stock tips the whole ride home. Not sure if I should buy United Health or sell everything.

I've just ordered my first Raspberry Pi! I'm pretty excited. Gonna try to make a detection and notification system for a rail-crossing near my place. If nothing else, I'm looking forward to a new hobby that isn't doom scrolling 😁 Wish me luck!

Tamara and Chris were sentenced to 18 months probation, 12 months of that to be served under house arrest with the remainder including a curfew. Tamara will also get credit for time-served, reducing her sentence to 15.5 months. Tamara's counsel indicates they are still
Tamara Lich's lawyer Lawrence Greenspon spoke to me and others outside the courthouse after Tamara was sentenced to house arrest. I asked him for one message he'd like Canadians to know about this case. What he told me was powerful.

Playing 'Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom' with my daughter and I gotta say... there is *some* beneficial space for videogames in childhood development. It's a simulated 3 dimensional space with intricate puzzles that variously use and require workable models of electricity,

Great news! I understand the proof will lie in the pudding, but credit to Trump for getting some traction in this galling tragedy.
Hamas has agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages, alive and dead, under the terms of U.S. President Donald J. Trump's 20-point comprehensive proposal to end the fighting in Gaza, while signalled readiness to immediately enter mediated negotiations to discuss the

Just cracked this tome. Woah. First off, what an incredible achievement. Firstenberg effortlessly conveys his encyclopedic knowledge of the science of electricity and biology while maintaining a page-turning prose. I can barely put the book down! While much discourse on the

While Mr. Carney is waxing poetic about transforming the global economy, he avoids a stark reality facing us here at home.

A grandmother just cat-called me on the street. "It's nice to see a man who knows how to dress! Beautiful!" (I'm wearing a suit.) Feeling pretty awesome right now.

Mark Carney is bonkers.
We have a transformative opportunity to build a fairer and more resilient global financial system. That’s what we focused on at the @UN this morning — how to boost productivity, reduce inequality, and build a more inclusive and sustainable economy that empowers more people.

Went to a men's-only BBQ this evening put on by my church. A few things. Over the last 70 years or so we have basically eliminated all the men's-only spaces. While I understand the desire of women to not be excluded anywhere, there is really something unique about being among

I only ever hear Antifa mentioned when violence is being discussed or reported on. I don't think they have any other aims.
I am not sure I would call Antifa terrorists but I would note that in the past decade, 1. They have violently assaulted and broken the bones of three personal friends of mine for holding peaceful, nonviolent protests or speaking at public meetings. 2. They have primarily

Jimmy Kimmel was unfunny, brash and offensive. He was bad at his job. I'm surprised he wasn't fired sooner.

When I was in grade 10 our gym teacher taught us a lesson that stayed with me. He taught us how to measure our heart rate using our fingers and a clock with a second hand. He had us all measure our heart rate. He then informed us the girls gym class would be joining us for some
