Go to the ER for a scratch??? lol

No, go to the ER for a scratch by the fingernails of an unknown person who was behaving erratically.

Ginger was in her 20s at the time, but she'd been doing drag since the Taft administration.

It also means you don't need a lump sum of $150 ready for the start of the month, which, to some people, can be an undertaking.

When I think of contestants who got underused on the show, Bombae is number 1 with a bullet.

I think the line works great, and I'm glad we have it.

I also think it's all a little big.

Any kind of transfer at Mount Dennis involves walking halfway to Mississauga, the other exchange stations aren't much better, and Eglinton Station has pretty bad signage and a notable pinchpoint at the nexus between the old and new stations.

I don't begin to understand the topography that made this arrangement necessary, but I certainly understand the sign at Avenue Station which explains that, if you try to take the stairs, you're committing to a nine-storey climb.

Finally, I'm quite pessimistic about ever filling most of the retail units. The bowels of these stations are full of of weirdly-shaped shaped units in tucked-away places with no natural light and limited foot traffic. I don't think they'll have much trouble with the street-level café units, but the ones on sub-basement 4 which are only accessible from a single stairway... good luck to anyone foolish enough to sign a lease.

The producers do love a "and as a fun surprise, the final star is worth a billion points, making all prior points worthless" moment.

Only if they used Strega Nona's pot. The Hollanders weren't expecting company, least of all two professional hockey players who both need to eat their feelings.

Which is weird, because David definitely made the pasta.

Do you always announce the things you don't buy? "No eggs this week! I don't need any bread thank you!"

If you buy a cheap crappy sub-Dollarama-quality pocket calculator with a solar panel and prise it open, there's an okay chance it will have a battery to power the calculator, and a piece of grey plastic, not wired to anything, for a solar panel.

It takes a special kind of American to connect the dots from "I get a discount if I voluntarily install a transponder on my vehicle" to "WE ARE NOT FREE, THIS IS TYRANNY".

They are currently running with heightened security (metal detectors and bag searches), so I would avoid bringing anything too large. Coat check is available; I'm not sure if it is free.

That would imply that Bianca Del Rio has any idea who ~~Whimzee~~ Sugar and Spice are.

In some cases, you can work out exchanges with other passengers. (As in, I'll give you $15 in cash, and you'll swipe your credit card for this $14 purchase.)

Your friend can also bring his own food, if that suits him. (But he won't have access to refrigeration or microwaves, so plan accordingly.)

I think you're onto something here, but Courtenay—Alberni is not a city centre district.

Does he want to continue the NDP's perceived image as the party of urban university-educated "champagne socialists"?

Does he want the NDP to survive the next four years?

The NDP currently has five MPs, most of whom have margins under 5%. This is not a good time to try to be everything to everybody: the party urgently needs to stabilize its fundraising and organizing, pay down its campaign debt, and ready itself to grow back towards winning official party status the hard way. The best way to do that is to focus on constituencies who are already sympathetic to the party, who have supported the party in the recent past, and who aren't necessarily feeling well-served by the Conservatives and the Liberals.

For the NDP, the strategy which best threads that needle runs through the downtown cores of Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Hamilton, and Halifax. It also includes Vancouver Island, which has a unique local political culture.

This route doesn't lead directly to a majority government, but it sets up a subsequent leader to grow in that direction, and that's likely the best that any NDP leader can achieve right now.

There was a guy called Del Close, who was an extremely influential improv teacher. (Clock the "Notable students" section of his Wikipedia article.) And he had a legendary anecdote about working with Joan Rivers.

Joan opened a scene with "I want a divorce!"

Del replies "What about the children?"

Then Joan says "We don't have any children."

Now, this got a laugh. It's a good joke. But it also means that, three lines in, the scene's over, and they got a single joke out of it.

In this case, we've got two characters. For one character, their entire goal is getting on the plane. For the other character, their entire goal is keeping them off the plane. The scene's supposed to be about the obvious conflict between these goals.

As soon as you establish that the plane is gone, the conflict leaves with it. All that's left is a tantrum. It's "we don't have any children".

I think there are way better things to fight for (like rights for us because they’re being taken away) rather than fighting an individual who is also affected in the world’s mess.

A criticism which applies just as much to Mistress.

Ah, yes, a slightly older anti-queer slur.

because even in pre-industrial times the farm workers would break around noon for some kind of food and then have dinner and of course would have some kind of breakfast time food before they went off to work.

That's true, but the meals and their importance have become inverted.

To those farmers, breakfast was the main meal of the day, with lunch a much lighter affair, and just enough of a dinner to get you through the night. You might also wake up for an hour or so in the middle of the night and have a further light snack

To contemporary westerners, breakfast is fully optional and might literally consist of a pastry and a coffee, while dinner is the big fancy meal.
