#TeamHoman just came up 2nd best to the Hasselborg rink of Sweden 7-5 at the WFG Grand Slam of Curling event up the road in Guelph. A really good match, & I am grateful for the participants' civility & professionalism throughout. Such a good reflection on their sport. 🇨🇦🇸🇪🥌🏆 https://t.co/iVvSqDmF1K

Interesting pivot. I'm posting this painting - "Slop Culture" 16"x20" oil on board (2022) - to my Instagram and see if it sticks. Been taken down 2x without explanation. The painting is a reply to the strange people who think you save the Earth when you throw food on paintings.🎨 https://t.co/Ef2uXZSRBU

This is massive. Mark Zuckerberg says he is prioritizing free speech on Facebook and Instagram again. Says his platforms will drop biased fact checkers for the community notes feature similar to X. https://t.co/G3DT8iPbNh

I'd be interested to see what happens when AI is applied to the possibilities of the turret lathe. If AI can design its own programs it can design its own tools. And vice versa and so on, as it compounds. Sounds like machine learning. 🇨🇦

Remembering a terrible polar storm on Xmas eve, as it happened 2 yrs. ago. Several dozen perished in the western New York region. That hurt. I remember the storm blowing through Port Dover and feeling threatened. This painting was done soon after. It's titled "Winter."#Krampus🎄 https://t.co/jRDQeqidxE

Bills beat Detroit in an exciting game. Gratifying to watch these inter-connected cities excel on the gridiron at once. Vigorous rail traffic between Detroit & Buffalo c. 1890 forward also built southern Ontario. Grey Cup champs Toronto Argonauts are also a football power house,

#RachelHoman is a machine. Congratulations #TeamHoman 🇨🇦🥌🏆 https://t.co/AzOJ1V6rLR

"The Minotaur" 11"x14" oil on board. https://t.co/5uqdTAacbW

#TeamHoman wins the Co-op slam event in Alberta. You'll want to check out the highlight-reel shots they made. Rachel Homan is no longer throwing stones -- she's casting spells.🥌🇨🇦 https://t.co/oVSpgibpGm

"Goo!" 13"x15" oil on board. "Goo!" should've been a marketing slam dunk: Baby food presents as goo, "goo" is something a baby would say, and "goo" is the better part of "good" (you can "Goo"-gle it). Yet there was no uptake among Depression-era housewives. Tough crowd. 👶🥄👩‍🦰 https://t.co/OBxhaSp7TW

I like how baseball has been a ballast during this turbulent political season, as it always has for the past 125+ years. Gravitas on parade: Everyone pushing the limits of physics.⚾️🇺🇸 https://t.co/YlMG1Lm0u5

Big pumpkin award at Norfolk County Fair goes again to the Butler family. This entry topped the scales at 1,620 pounds. #NCF https://t.co/fR4oCsBsFE

The horticulture building at the Norfolk County Fair is the only place you'll find the ingredients for genuine Freak Salad. Behold: A 4.13-lb. tomato, a mixed-up carrot weighing 8.74 lbs.; a watermelon weighing 139 lbs. and a turnip weighing ~15 lbs. Tallest sunflower was 25' 1". https://t.co/nDBx9u4AzG

It's October baseball. Let's go. ⚾️ https://t.co/8HdE6CGsUk

"St. Hokum: Patron Saint of Malarkey" 16"x20" oil on board, custom-painted frame. "Fool of Kings, King of Fools." Oct. 2 is St. Hokum's feast day. For those inclined to celebrate, Hokum was partial to cheeseburgers.🍔 https://t.co/1DquxWyI8R
