To the craven "comedians" who are STILL not speaking up: The manager at the Chicago Laugh Factory was arrested by ICE. They filed no charges, he's a US citizen, and his family doesn't know where he is.

They are coming for all of us. Grow a fucking spine and say something while you still can.

Urinary tract infections linked to contaminated meat in new study

let’s be crystal fucking clear about this: Pete Kegstand was a passenger. no way was he flying the plane — not with his blood-alcohol level. of course, the Department of Defense went out of their way to crop that video in a way that implied Piss-Drunk Pete was piloting that jet — because that’s what you do when your SecDef is a banty rooster with a paper-thin ego in need of constant affirmation that he’s something other than a two-bit Fox News weekend chat-show dunk-tank clown.

OH LOOK, THEY STRAPPED "PISS-DRUNK" PETE KEGSTAND (*BELCH*) INTO THE KIDDIE SEAT OF A FIGHTER JET AND PRETENDED HE WAS A ZOOM-ZOOM PILOT, AND MAGA DIPSHITS ALL SWOONED. THIS AND ALL THE OTHER DUMBFUCKERY THAT HAPPENED IS IN MY "THIS WEEK IN STUPID." THANK YOU FOR READING IT HERE: bit.ly/4obgnsu

Which likely means higher ticket prices, which further reduces people attending games.

The CTC is a no-go for many people. Transit sucks to TD Place - it's even worse for kanata. Just leave Lansdowne as is.

Absolutely incredible stuff coming out of Bozo The Clown School of Economics.

1. convince everyone you're going to fix the economy by slapping tariffs on everything.

2. Tell Americans that other countries will pay the tariffs, even though tariffs are paid by importers (you).

What Happens When a Storm Like Melissa Doesn’t Move

Tropical storms like Melissa usually move across the Caribbean at 10 to 12 miles per hour. On Friday, Melissa was moving at 2 mph — slower than the average human walks.

That slowness can cause big problems when rain keeps falling, as it's expected to this weekend.

Yep

Can't give LA too much leeway though.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

I love "Me without You ". Will have to check this song out.

Don’t mess with women’s hockey fans.

The PWHL agrees that Lansdowne 2.0 is a bad idea and won’t work for the Ottawa Charge.

U.S. Deploys Aircraft Carrier to Latin America as Drug Operation Expands

“Hegseth has ordered the deployment of the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford as well as its accompanying warships and attack planes to waters off Latin America.”

Hope the Gerald R. Ford doesn’t meet the same fate of the General Belgrano.

Hope so. And the young man, Trey Yesavage, is pitching.

Big PWHL vibes here. Not a bad thing. #WPBL

"A meagre man"

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

We’re keeping all these receipts. Corrupt officials get away with things until they don’t.

It's not lost on me that the part of the White House we are destroying is the part that has to do with women's history in the White House.

Ford government opens door to ending indefinite leases for Ontario tenants Attorney General Doug Downey says current system discourages landlords from renting out vacant units

This is such an unmitigated pile of horseshit.

What's actually happening is landlords can't completely soak tenants and would very much like to max out rent by cramming people into single family homes.

A tweet from Jamie Dupree reads: “For those wondering, the debt went over $37 trillion on August 12, 2025. Up $1 trillion in just over 2 months!” It quotes his earlier post that says, “National Debt goes over $38 trillion,” with alert emojis on either side of the text.

But sure, more tax cuts for billionaires.
