My mayor drops f-bombs and I fucking love it. So very much wish she was running again. She’s got my vote if she changes her mind.

My immediate response to seeing this was… mmm bow bow. Because I’m old, too.
It's my #Twitterversary! I have been on Twitter for 15 years, since 27 Apr 2007 (via @twi_age).
#Sens fans! We need your help! We believe @DAlfredsson11 deserves to be inducted into the @HockeyHallFame. RETWEET if you think it's time to send #AlfieToTheHall!!!

Took my partner and I longer to drive the 1.5kms to the polling station than it did to actually vote. Simplest, easiest, and most effective way to contribute to our society. Go vote. voterinformationservice.elec…
I was in and out of my polling station in under 3 minutes today. Ontario residents: If you have the means/ability to get out and vote in this provincial election, please take the time to do so today. #OntarioVotes
Twitter wants me to say “Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do!” But, I didn’t until it told me. Really, all this does is make me feel old, which I am, which is why I don’t remember #MyTwitterAnniversary

Everyone always points to Bettman being a lawyer for the responses he gives to questions. But, I think this answer demonstrates that Bettman might not have to be the commissioner of a niche sports league if he was actually good at lawyering.

I’ve been asking myself repeatedly for the past year or more why I am a fan of this league that condones awful, harmful behaviour and only barely pays lip service to the kind of change I truly believe in. I still don’t have an answer. It’s getting harder and harder to find one.

I keep reading on here how #SeaKraken have to take on at least a couple bad money contracts to reach the cap restriction for tonight’s draft. I say “hogwash”! Here’s Team Max Flexibility. No contracts beyond 2023. Only two deals more than $3.5 million: capfriendly.com/forums/threa…
That, in 2021, this story is newsworthy emphasizes how far behind the hockey world really is. Providing the double underline and exclamation points, though, is the moment at 4:48 when the racist Black Hawks logo sits within a pro-LGBTQ+ message. 🤦‍♂️ youtu.be/iYZJqPmaz9w
I joined Twitter 14 years ago and right now that makes me feel very old.

Maybe I’m being over-sensitive, but this has a Bruce-trolling-Sens-Twitter vibe to me. #wellplayed
Hey #Sens fans you must excited about Chabot-Zub.

Just catching up on #Sens roster moves today. What in the holy hell are they even doing‽
Most Republicans running for office right now are racist assholes. Prove me wrong.
Most third-world migrants can not assimilate into civil societies. Prove me wrong.
I get that the situation is “more complex” and all that bullshit, but the #Sens moving out their two most socially woke players for the reasons stated and then trading for a player with the history of Watson means either the team admins are, *at best*, tone deaf and incompetent.

Argh! Grammar and other errors plague this tweet. I’m usually better at editing myself. My apologies.
