Our list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time was originally published in 2003. But no list is definitive, so we decided to remake it from scratch. The voters included Beyoncé, Stevie Nicks and many more. Here we present our new #RS500Albums :

As a Nova Scotian, I am outraged that Justin Trudeau is using our tragedy to punish law-abiding firearms owners across Canada. As Prime Minister, I can guarantee to all Canadians that I will never take advantage of a tragedy like this to push a political agenda.

An FB pal is an anti-vaxxer and said instead of arguing we should "spread love & acceptance and agree to disagree." I'm pleased to report I delivered the sickest burn that "Your kids will be spreading more than love & acceptance if they're not vaccinated" and am now logging off.

A lady at the grocery store with limited English approached me in the meat section and pointed at a cut of meat and said “this, uh, mooooooo?” to which I responded “no, baAaAaAaaaa” and she smiled and touched my cheek. For reference she was dressed and looked like Mother Theresa.

I am lucky to have a health plan. That plan will cover one and a half therapy sessions this year. Maybe we could go easy on mocking people for not going to therapy and go a harder on making it more affordable/accessible? That's all I've got for the let's talk thing. Thanks!

The twisted sense of responsibility for putting them in harm's way and the relief that they're still here and the grief that stems from that relief because the parents of other folks weren't so lucky — it's a lot. If you're carrying weird weight, it's okay. You're not alone.

A couple weeks ago, I mentioned to Sarah that I wanted to buy a record rack I saw on Etsy. Sarah — a genius — was like, oh, we can make that. And then we (mostly she) did! Sarah cut the boards, I did the sanding and varnishing, and now there’s a little more room for records! 📻

Walking Percy today, a lady asked to pet him. He was excited. She bent down, nose to nose with him, and said, "Gimme kisses". He was happy to lick her face. It was a sweet moment, one that was shattered when she looked at me and said, "I wish I could find a man to do that to me."
