When I see a tumbleweed I know it’s prickly but I still pick it up.

Hi Michael, @sirmichael.bsky.social I’m updating my Autumn wardrobe and need your expertise. Effortless Popover? Fresh-looking Casual? Garden is Blooming? or Fun Chambray? I trust you to advise me as to which of these is likely to wow the boys. That’s my goal.

Our hearts are breaking for those affected by the horrific fire at CFB Wainwright in Alberta, Canada. I hope we send help, now and as time goes on.

Ordered ‘medium spice’ at the Indian restaurant. Now I’m sweating, crying, and reevaluating the hubris of my ancestors.

Are there downsides to AI? Yes. But there are even more positives: CONS -Makes everything more expensive -Will kill us all PROS -AI is easy to spell -Summarises texts for some reason -We were all going to die sometime anyway See? 3 pros and only 2 cons. Hopefully this assuages everyone's concerns

Out of the roughly 350,000 Haitian Temporary Protected Status in the U.S., over 100,000 are working in healthcare - in hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, and home healthcare.

Quite the master of uninteresting facts here.

There are lots of interesting facts about the Titanic. But there are plenty of uninterestings ones too, which, imo, are equally important to know.

If any other teachers out there are having trouble getting their students to use correct grammar when writing, feel free to use this easy-to-remember guide I've put together. I got my students to memorise it and now they're following it to the letter 👍

Canada has always sent firefighters to our wild fires.

Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Massachusetts have sent firefighters to Canada to aid them with the wildfires. We help our neighbors. Not threaten them with tariffs!

One of the most contested debates regarding spoon use

I don't want to criticise online bakers (many of whom I respect) but one trend I dislike is when they use “tsp” and “tbsp” in the same recipe. Yes, it's nice to add variety to the wording of your recipe but since they mean the same thing, you should pick one and just stick with it.

So glad I'm not a referee at this World Cup b/c I wouldn't know what to do during hydration breaks. I'm not gregarious enough to chat with the players but I'm too cool to be seen hanging out with the assistant refs. Ultimately I'd maybe just take my phone out and pretend to be texting or something.

My idea to spice up the World Cup? The World Cup Mole. Before each match, both teams get to plant a secret saboteur in the opposing team's starting eleven. Nobody knows who the mole is. Although there are some suspicions among the French players about their newly arrived left-back Sven Olofsson.

My conspiracy theory on why no World Cup matches have been played at the same time so far? There's only one ball and it's transported to each venue between matches. FIFA doesn't want you to know that if a 2nd ball isn't found in time for tomorrow's simultaneous games, the tournament gets cancelled.

If only 30% of America had some small clue that a twice impeached 34x convicted felon who led a deadly attack against America, with six bankruptcies and a lifelong history of fraud, abuse, corruption and lying, would somehow turn out to be the worst president in US history, twice...

My least favourite thing in the World Cup? When a team scores a goal. It's so selfish. It hurts the feelings of opposing players, embarrasses them and damages their confidence. Awful. If I was a coach, I'd forbid my team from scoring. "Stop scoring goals. Start considering other people's feelings."

Seeing a lot of criticism for the World Cup hydration breaks and I must vent my fury too. They shouldn't just be for water. There should be picnic tables and sandwiches for the players to sit down and enjoy each other's company. They should last two hours. The player who makes the most friends wins.

Shook my house with the loudest bang! I assumed a large bear had fallen out of a tree onto my roof. Apparently not.

I NEVER want to hear ANYONE ever complaining about the deficit and spending when the President, his family and his cabal of corruption ARE DRAINING OUR TREASURY TO LINE THEIR OWN POCKETS TO THE TUNE OF BILLIONS OF AMERICAN TAXPAYER DOLLARS AND NOBODY IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT

My friend Robbie went missing in action in Vietnam on October 12, 1972. His body has never been recovered. I think of him every Memorial Day — and what he died fighting for.
