Bane: “Gotham—take back your city.” *shits massive quantities of diarrhea into his diaper*

“Iranian people: stay in your homes. Also, get out and seize your government. Also, your internet is cut off so it’s not like you can hear me saying any of this anyways.”

It is great that Musk finally cut Starlink access for Russian forces, but you have to wonder why it took so long.

He claimed it was not easy to do, yet it was quickly solved with a simple whitelist.

It makes you ask the obvious question: did he want to help Russia?

BBC how do you explain airing a racial slur when the broadcast was on a 2-hour delay?

If anyone else in Canada wants to join me, I think I’m gonna dance and pretend to punch brick walls until I cry and then look up into the sky with renewed sense of determination like Billy Elliot.

A question for every town that still has a Target: how do you not shoplift them into non-existence? They’ve called themselves Target. And they’re just sitting there. Mocking you. Have some respect for yourself.

“I hate Saint John. We don’t even have a [insert retail brand].”

Pro tip: One of the keys to loving Saint John is learning to love the fact that retail giants fear us bc every time they open something here, we may just shoplift them into non-existence. Or we might not. Only one way to find out🤷‍♂️

Luckily I found a website with a bunch of podiums on sale.

It’s fine we’re not owning the podium. We owned the podium in 2010. Someone else should own the podium. Plenty a podium to own.

The IOC has banned the courageous & principled Ukrainian Olympian Vladyslav Heraskevych for his “helmet of memory” commemorating Ukraine’s war dead.

Meanwhile the IOC is selling a $42 "Heritage T-shirt" commemorating the 1936 Olympics, known as the Nazi Games. shop3.olympics.com/en/olympic-g...
