It’s absolutely killing me that I only have one like that I can give to this awesome post - love it! 🥰

OMG - two of my BSky favorites!
I cannot wait to see what's coming soon! 😀

DUI hires

Tampopo - glorious Japanese food porn!

Wow - what a great photo of our King!

A collaboration that I never would have imagined, but so I'm excited to hear!

And the 'clarification' will be seen by a fraction of the eyeballs that read the false story - bah.

a doodle of a not-to-scale map of Ontario starting with Toronto (west Toronto=Nirvanna the Band the show, East Toronto = Kim's Convenience) that then radiates out to quaint suburbs (Hallmark Channel original films) then Rural small town (Schitt's Creek) then The Cottage (Heated Rivalry) then Hoser Country (Letterkenny and Schitt's Creek) I swear to god do not try to "correct" the geography it's not that deep

The atmosphere layers of central Ontario in pop culture

Has she made her stand on the island airport jets issue part of her campaign?
I live in the Toronto Centre riding and haven’t been paying close attention to this bi-election, but Ford’s meddling on our waterfront is an important issue.

The smoky salty flavour of the bacon balances the sweetness of the scallops so nicely!
I pair scallops with crispy prosciutto instead, but the flavour profile would be pretty close.

I need to be there!

Your ongoing messaging to adopt, don't shop - a mantra that I've always lived by - along with your brilliant eye behind the camera is appreciated!

The last leadership convention I voted for you Charlie, and I’m happy with today’s outcome.
Looking forward to see what Avi does.

Congratulations, Avi - looking forward to seeing your leadership in action!

Mulcair has become a Scott-Jennings-light stand in for what Bell Media presents as political commentary.
It's difficult to square that he once lead the NDP in any way.

Smells like Chappell...

jinks!

What's up with the shirtless Daddy Bear photo with the Pop Crave post?!

A sticker from ohmygollyembroidery on Etsy that says Trans Lives Are More Important Than Harry Potter.

This is great, Avi - thanks for the advocacy!
Voting for you as number one this weekend.

Neko sends twisty love on this Caturday!
#Caturday

It was going on one, two in the morning, and we were shooting what I felt was an important scene for me, when he makes an attempt to be quote-unquote straight, in a suit, and at the end of it he gets emotional and locks himself in the other room. And I felt like, I’m not getting what I want—I’m not happy with it. Mike was happy with it. He called me the next day and said, “I know you weren’t happy with the scene last night. Believe me, we wouldn’t have gone home if I had felt we weren’t getting it.” And then he sort of became my psychiatrist and said, “You find it difficult to be happy, don’t you? You find it difficult to enjoy things.” And I said, “Well, sometimes. Last night was about feeling too tired and not feeling I was reaching what I needed to reach for the scene.” He talked to me then about when he was making, I don’t know whether it was Virginia Woolf or The Graduate. He said, “I didn’t enjoy it for a second. I was worried about so many things.” And then he said, “You know, this is never going to happen again quite this way. You should try to allow yourself to enjoy this more. Take a minute a day, and then add a minute the next day, and another minute. Pretty soon, you’ll have hours of happiness.”

The Birdcage opened thirty years ago today, so in its honor, I want to share one of my favorite stories about Mike Nichols that didn't make it into my biography. This is from an interview I did with Nathan Lane.

Linda Kash and Blair Packham? I feel like I’m having a Jarvis CI flashback!

Today should be your 38th birthday.. When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

Sunday Funday!

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Happy Caturday friends!

OMG - when he grows to the size that makes those mad paws proportional! 😍

OMG - that face!
