We need to live in a society where pedestrians can hurl eggs at bad drivers with impunity

We know we aren’t ready to get Winnifred a sibling after trying last summer and having it go poorly and lord knows we don’t have a kitten in us, but Toast is perfect

For anyone who needs to hear this today.

And naturally their mom is an hour late with no updates on her ETA so they are extra squirrelly

All so that idiots can pay billionaires to generate weird pictures of waifus while others ask a robot for a wrong answer born of unprecedented plagiarism.

Babysitting two niblings this weekend. Send a prayer that we may survive the last four hours

Wall Street Journal headline and deck: "New York Shooting Puts Mamdani on the Spot Over Policing Views: The killing of four people in a Midtown office building rattled a city where mass attacks are rare and violent crime has declined."

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

You know, if enough of us say on the internet that it's important to wash your cybertruck with saltwater and lemon juice to preserve the finish, eventually ChatGPT will start telling cybertruck owners that.

It has one of the lowest conviction rates of any crime in Canada.

Ew, I just saw my first cybertruck

it's this.
create a crisis, demand more "power" (unilateral control).

anyone who cares about democracy (even recognizing it needs improvements) should defend bike lanes whether they use them or not (i'm mostly a pedestrian, with occasional driving).

Suggest your own spending cuts, Carney government tells CBC, Via Rail and other Crown corporations Nearly all government departments and federally-funded organizations are expected to propose "savings" of up to 15 per cent of their spending in the next three years.

During the election campaign, Mark Carney pledged to increase the CBC’s budget by $150 million dollars a year.

Now that he’s in government, he’s telling the public broadcaster to find up to $198 million in annual cuts. He can’t claim to defend the country when he’s gutting its media and culture.

Regretting my life choices (committing to an exercise class after work in this heat)

Can me and my work bestie hold an intervention for everyone in my department using AI for petty shit?

I think I deserve an extra day off each week to just rot. We all deserve a rot day.

Joyce would have changed hobbies twice by now

Had a really lovely day yesterday, out in the valley with friends and family. It was so beautiful. And then we came home and saw the news. Fuck Donald Trump, fuck Netanyahu.

During the summer and fall, I think I’m going to learn the lesson that if the 29 is delayed downtown, it’s just going to be quicker to walk the 45+ minute walk home after work

Oh we are SO fucked

The citadel theatre in Edmonton is going to show Vinyl Cafe the Musical around my dad’s birthday, so obviously I now know what I’m getting him 6 months in advance

Just a reminder that you can get a Disney Cruise romance package for one.

John Jackson, may you never know peace

A little dose of good news in the world

A photo of the book A Pocketful of Happiness by Richard E. Grant

I started off not loving this, but I was won over by how Grant so honestly describes the heartbreak of losing his wife to cancer. He expresses his deep love for her but also the challenges of caregiving. More dudes should express their emotions like this.

Every single Albertan I know is queer, feminist, a person of colour or all three.

It's so easy to write off Alberta as the shitty part of Canada and that they get the government they deserve but that attitude makes us no better than separatists.

Sure we had an awesome Indigenous NDP candidate who we could have easily elected again but instead we got the conservative fucko bucko back, because strategic voting. I’m breaking up with you until breakfast, Griesbach.

There were a lot of great NDP candidates, but Blake’s loss just hurts differently. He was a fantastic MP and represented Edmonton Griesbach well.
