I've heard that the part that runs underground (like a virtual subway) is fine. Also heard that the Finch line is a joke.

All the Empty Rooms is a powerful one.
THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!
I think it's worth noting that I was located by the Bestsellers section, which included Michael Ondaatje's new poetry book. I don't remember seeing a single customer pick that one up.
So it's safe to say that I outsold Michael Ondaatje.
Hey, #Toronto book lovers:
Coles (Beach location) is now carrying two copies of my novel Performance Reviews!

Happy #InternationalWomensDay.
Ready to go at Coles.
Look at the fancy display they gave me. They even moved Staff Picks to make room for me.
They were calling for thunderstorms, but it's bright and sunny in the Beach right now. Hope you'll drop by.
Reminder for #Toronto book lovers that this is happening tomorrow.
And I'll share a little secret about this event...
I've been told that if I sell at least ten books tomorrow, they'll let me stock a few copies in the store for a while.
Do drop by and say hey.

This delivery driver throws treats to all the dogs on his route to see if they can catch. Spoiler alert: some of them definitely cannot. Still 13/10 for all (TT: jezzyvi)
It Was Just at Accident is a beautiful film - so humanistic, funny, theatrical.
Appreciated this serious conversation between Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi and Jon Stewart on the Daily Show Monday.
It's ok to talk about art seriously! www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGyZ...
A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔
Eglinton line?
(I've heard the Finch one is awful.)
This is why hyphens matter, folks.
SCTV is available to stream now. I repeat, SCTV is available to stream. www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/film...
Catherine O'Hara standing indoors in front of a patterned metallic wall with round lights. She is shown from the waist up, wearing a long-sleeved red textured top. Her shoulder-length blonde hair is parted near the center, and she is smiling slightly while facing the camera. The background features repeating rectangular metal tiles with warm reflections and two visible round light fixtures on the right side.
On this day in 1954, Catherine O'Hara was born in Toronto. A Canadian comedy icon, she received two Emmys, a Golden Globe, a Governor General's Performing Arts Award, the Order of Canada and a star on Canada's Walk of Fame. She died on Jan. 30, 2026.
Amazing interview on @thedailyshow.com with the director of It Was Just an Accident.
Watch the video, and then see the film if you can.

I thought this album was amazing when I was thirteen.
I wasn't very bright back then.
Hey #Toronto book lovers:
This Saturday, I'll be at Coles (Beach location, 2169 Queen East), promoting my new novel, Performance Reviews!
I'll be there around 10:30 a.m. and plan to stay until I either sell all my copies or get bored. Please drop by and say hey.

#nowwatching Duel (1971)
Yeah, early Spielberg rules. 'Jaws' with a truck is thrown around a lot (deservedly so) but this film is a lot more than that.
And to have the truck and its dricer be such a brutal force... Love it.
A film on masculinity, on violence inherit in vehicles. Machete's up. 🔪🔪🔪
Whip it WELL, Devo. Whip it WELL.
Come on, guys. You know better.
I'd really love to experience a month that will be lost to the history books. A whole month. What paradise that would be.
Oh. So Trump's pulling a Bush now.
If I'd made this mistake on Twitter... I'd be dead now.
One-PERSON show. Duh.
[smacks forehead, sighs in embarrassment]

Time for Eddie Izzard's one-man Hamlet.
I look forward to her take on Player #3.
"Low merit" probably meaning it doesn't conform to good CanLit thoughts and themes...
And a reminder that if you're closer to the Beach, you can still get Performance Reviews at the Woodbine and Queen Book City as well.
