L: me as a stripper, 21 years old, working in #ldnont, studying law clerking. It was either that or early childhood educator. I got into both. R: me, in my home with co-counsel, a lawyer in 2 bars, with files all over. 1416 days sober, working on exciting work. Grateful.

I ordered a meal prep service. They delivered the bag. I went outside to get it & unzipped the bag. Inside, there appeared to be a very ripe avocado in a in a plastic bag. I looked more closely. It was furry & had a tail … it was a living, breathing, rat I am now an ancestor …

I need two recommendations friends. I need bodysuits with short sleeves. Size 14-16. I also need cute places to eat around the Newmarket area. I'm getting together with an old friend for a super femme lunch during the week, so needless to say 2SLGBTQ+ friendly. Thanks 😘

Elite Firm Increases Associate Starting Salaries To $250K

$250,000 for first-year associates. Good for them; I appreciate the idea of short-term losses for long-term benefits.

Dear media, If you are going to inexplicably continue reporting on the Bernardo nothingburger, you have a responsibility to report on a) what medium security *actually* means and b) what the decision making process *actually* is. Thank you.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know

Context missing: Davis' ancestry is mostly slaves, who were commonly raped by slaveowners. Descendants of the slave trade have about 25% European DNA as a result. This is all discussed in the full PBS episode, linked below. Davis did not benefit from slavery. •tinyurl.com/DNA-Percentages •tinyurl.com/PBS-Clips

People need more intimate friendships. The transactional, social climbing model of friendship is empty.

At this morning’s Call to the Bar ceremony in Ottawa, a degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa (LLD) was conferred upon The Right Honourable Richard Wagner, P.C., Chief Justice of Canada.

I'm just thinking about our prosecutors and how little respect I have for some of them, based on how little respect they have for the law. I have permission from my client to share this story...

Y’all, my motivation is at an all-time low. Send good vibes, encouragement, and productivity hacks plz.

In follow-up scrum, Mayor Crombie says she pledges to protect Greenbelt, “it is sacred to me.” But says there may be occasion where local communities/municipalities after consultation may ask for “whitebelt” lands trapped in Greenbelt to be exchanged for other land.

1,300 positions cut. Nine radio stations closing or sold. Talented Journalists, Producers, Writers, Technicians. People who are deeply committed to their craft and community. Thinking of you all. Just a sad day for so many.

$2.45M would've saved a ton of journalists today, but instead, it was pocketed by a CEO. Dozens of people and their loves ones could've slept better tonight.

American infrastructure is so bad I'm unwilling to even joke about it. We literally have thousands of bridges that could collapse at any moment. Do you find that terrifying? I find that terrifying! Meanwhile, our politicians...

I don't know about you, but for me, the hardest type of nursing is hallway nursing. My colleagues and I had to go through the hardship of caring for patients in the ED hallway, with little to no privacy. Meanwhile, Doug Ford has some $22 billion piled up as savings - UNSPENT.

Things you might say about your lawyer but not your partner … 1 hour sure is expensive.

Wild to see what happens when one cop tries to tell another he shouldn’t be going almost twice the speed limit.

The police don’t care about the law. It’s one of many reasons we need to move towards abolition and a world filled with care rather than policing and punishment. I’ve written more extensively on this at the newsletter linked in my bio. Hope you’ll check it out!

Yes, it’s true. My relationship with CTV News ended today. But reminder — my relationship with my former CTV News colleagues did not. I’m proud of the work we did together, but I’m even prouder of the lifelong friendships formed. Thank you all.

Hushing up the fall of a Supreme

“A justice of the Supreme Court of Canada fell off the bench. Just what happened wasn’t revealed at first. It was then treated as confidential. And now that it’s over, it’s none of your business. We should have some concerns” Hushing up the fall

The unsettling Canadian way of moving on quietly from unpleasantness is evident throughout this case
