I know it is the weekend but it is also a good time to reflect on the epidemic of workers who die and are injured on the job in Canada. Tomorrow is the national day of mourning. Take time to reflect on this, and why it continues to happen.

I have been thinking a lot about student protests on campus. Since today is the anniversary of the Kent State massacre, we should collectively reflect on the important role of student dissent -- on and off campus -- in shaping social change. #NeverForget history.com/topics/vietnam…

My favourite comment from reviewers is when they tell an author to further contextualize something without providing specific advice or addressing how it would help the paper.

Today is the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre. Take a moment and reflect on the fate of these student protestors in a year of protest.

Before I became vice president and before I was elected as U.S. senator, I was the attorney general of California. Before that, I was a prosecutor who took on predators, fraudsters, and cheaters. So I know Donald Trump’s type. In this campaign, I will put my record against his.

I see that Maritime wrestling legend Leo Burke (born Léonce Cormier) has died. Someday, I will write that book on Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling ... SiriusXM Busted Open

My hot take after the address from the Oval Office is that if Kamala Harris wins, Biden will be considered the greatest one-term President. C’mon my American cousins — like the man said, it is in your hands.
