In this stroller, there is now nothing but a bloody pulp. This is all that remains of the baby after today’s Russian shelling of a park in the Kharkiv region. #MadeByPutin #FinancedByTrump

In his defense of Ramaswamy’s vile ad, Trump called Amy Acton a “defective” candidate. As a former rape crisis counselor who has worked with countless survivors of childhood sexual assault, I want to speak a bit about how profoundly damaging that is. 🧵

Laura Nyro made a rare recording of a non-original song when she recorded “Up on the Roof” for her 1970 album Christmas and the Beads of Sweat. Yesterday was Laura Nyro's birthday and we remember her with love and respect.

Chwal of Fame Maja Chwalinska had won four tour-level matches in her whole career before Roland-Garros. Then she reached the final as a qualifier... scored her first top 10 win... and now this. The lefty overcomes Sonay Kartal, 2-6, 6-4, 6-2, to win the title in Wuhan.

Bibi Come Back Bianca Andreescu gets within one win of her first title at WTA 125 level or higher since the 2019 US Open, sweeping past world #204 Lucie Havlickova, 6-3, 6-1, in Rovereto. It is her second WTA 125 final of 2026, and the 26yo is up to #137 in the live rankings.

Mind. Blown.

We (anglo kids in 1970s/80s in the GTA with zero French) figured the Expos logo “elb” was an acronym for “expos le baseball.” I think I was 30 before I had the epiphany.

Notable that much of the Ukrainian progress early this year has been attributed to Musk turning off *Russian* Starlink terminals (which were illegal in any event.) Seems bad that a racist far-right billionaire has his hand on the "can Ukraine win the war" dial, I dunno

We’re not supposed to think it’s just a coincidence that the first public execution in 100 years is a Palestinian-American, are we? And to those who keep saying “If you don’t want to watch, don’t watch”, yeah that’s what we said about: - Drag Shows - Pride parades - Stephen Colbert - Black Ariel

Trump's suit appears to be part of Jos. A. Bank's Traveler line. The suit is listed as having been made abroad using a wool-polyester-spandex blend. The company describes it as having the "ultimate stretch" and was designed to minimize body odor.

One thing about people citing slower car travel times on Bloor West following the bike lane install is, well, that was kind of the point. Drivers were **averaging** nearly 20 km/h over the current speed limit at spots. Road revamp has brought speeds closer to limit. www.toronto.ca/wp-content/u...
