@anthonyfloyd.ca This suggests a greater chance of “Firefly” reboot on Hulu. Lots of programme cash suddenly freed up.
Can’t wait for tomorrow’s announcement. Gonna be shiny.

It’s so good to see that the Premier of Ontario is using the up-to-date pejoratives regarding Education standards from…
[:: checks notes ::]
…half a century ago.
If he had used a term from that historical perspective when the phrase “basket weaving courses” was au current it would have been one from the 1920s, and people would have rightly ridiculed him. Let us hope they do so today.

The plan for tomorrow is to be up at 10:00, ease into the day, shave (haven’t in four weeks or more), go to work from noon to eight (haven’t done that in over two weeks), then repeat the ‘working’ part the next day from about nine to five, and then I’m off for five days.
Laundry can wait for Tuesday.
Let’s see how that goes.
