Never ceases to amaze me. Here, rich white people are terrified of him. In Canada he'd just be another NDP candidate.

The most unfairly overlooked album of the 90's? I'd say so.

I see people posting songs all the time with "to start the day" or "Good morning from....". I thought I'd do the same today with a song that brilliantly sums up this week, these times, probably the future...

Is Portland Burning? No. See real-time Portland cameras, PulsePoint incidents, and sourced fact checks.

The latter. Her name is Ingrid Seynhaeve and she's Belgium. Took me less than five minutes to find that out.

Reading r/travisandtaylor on Reddit is pretty interesting and often hilarious. It’s nothing but ex-swifties and they are ruthless.

And, there would be nothing stopping Blue America from adopting the policies from Canada that make wanti g to be part of Canada so appealing.

The combined populations of all those blue states would require increasing the number of seats in the house to the point that they would dwarf the members from the original provinces. And all the bullshit from down here would then permeate Canadian politics. Fuck no.

California ALONE has the same, or greater, population than all of Canada. Do Americans have any clue how government works? (I'm not even going to ask about comprehension about parliamentary systems) Canada would cease to be Canada so far as governance goes because...

I really wish Americans would stop posting shit like this. And I say this as a Canadian living in the US. Why would Canada want this? They wouldn't. Americans see what they want to see about Canada and jump up and down about wanting to join but the thing is...

Seemed fair to me. If Haaland can throw a ball hard to the back of Gabriel’s head and not get booked then what Trossard did doesn’t deserve a card either.

So you're going to turn down any work from ABC/Disney/Hulu/FX right? Or is a strongly worded statement as far as this goes.

Yep. Though I did enjoy Wulf and Ironjaw. The rest…some were better than others. This wasn’t one of them.

He needs to learn there’s a time for glory and there’s also a time to pass the friggin’ ball when there’s three guys in easy reach who stand a better chance of putting it in the net. Frustrating to say the least.

can we add Karen Allen to that list?

Also...have you met anyone from eastern Washington or Oregon?

As a Canadian in Oregon, as much as I'd love to be part of Canada again, the combined population of Washington, Oregon and California would dwarf the population of the rest of the country by such an amount that they would control parliament. Probably not ideal for the rest of the country.

This threw me: "it contains their biggest hit in the form of its rollicking title track, Master Of Reality became D’Eugenio’s all-time favourite. " Rollicking title track? Paranoid & Sabbath Bloody Sabbath had rollicking title tracks but not this album. Would love to hear it if it exists. Does it?

well....not the Bastille itself mind you. The device contained within. Nonetheless. C'est apropos, non?

I never thought about it until just now but the Bastille would truly be the album's title would it not? Caress Of Steel? Depending on blade sharpness of course.
