As someone who mostly deals with the teaching side of things, I would very much like it if I could pass off my collections work to someone who is good at it and enjoys it, thank you very much!
There are 5 people with OKStupid accounts in Kingston. Out them all.
It's satire, right? I mean, it has to be... right?
When Trudeau expanded parental leave to 18 months, I thought it would be better if he required men (or non-birthing partners) to take 9 months. I think the current extension set women back.
Between corporate tech bros pushing AI and warhawks pushing bombs and MAHA goons pushing infectious diseases, nothing I do matters. I have no purpose. None of us do. There is no point to any of this? Anyway, this mid-life crisis is brought to you by my impending birthday.
Yesterday I came across a funeral book for a great-aunt, who died in 1956. I realized there is no one left alive who knew her. None of the people who signed the book and went to her funeral are alive. Why am I keeping this book, of a woman who I didn't know? Why are any of us here?
Length of trumps attention span
Hell of a thing to wake up to. And while my opinion is worth absolutely nothing, I’m disappointed.

A truly despicable & avoidable tragedy that you won't hear about in any State of the Union.

we have what I like to call The Pipeline which drains a broken heat pump into an otherwise unused garbage bin. It's been there for over 2 years.
'sauga represent!
Notice how it doesn’t say your prof won’t know, it doesn’t give an explicit answer. Already weaselly

Oh, CINAHL. Thanks for blocking my account. Just a suggestion, but maybe the reason I need to download lots of records is because I do systematic reviews? #medlibs #canmedlibs
Absolutely! #medlibs #canmedlibs
Or even Canadians who have relatives in Mexico, for crying out loud. I know several people who are making anxious phone calls to parents, aunts and uncles, etc.
I mean, I guess it is definitely better than having had the measles and not surviving....
Can we double this in 2026?
That reminds me…I need to check in with CPSO
Do not need to read the article. It’s from Elsevier. It’s AI. It’ll be overpriced slop
There’s a scene in the movie Jesus of Montreal where they find an unconscious man and don’t know whether they should send him to an English or French hospital. They see he’s circumcised so take him to Jewish General

Please. Everyone knows CityNews is Everywhere.
MPOW just had a survey on the use of AI and I want to use this instead of what I wrote, because it is much more eloquent. I said that AI needs to be yeeted into the sun.
🚨FLOOR-CROSSING ALERT!
I didn't know he was still alive.
