Yes, actors have to be incredibly brave and vulnerable, but did you know that sometimes TV writers have to type while 8 people watch?

If you see this happening in Canada it's because someone lost a button or found a cool bug, and I am really fucking proud of that.

There's a real skill to properly supporting the bread while dipping without also dipping your support finger.

Canada's Excellent Election Security
YouTube video by Steve Boots Canada's Excellent Election Security

As we're in the final campaign week before the Federal Election, here's a quick-yet-detailed video from @steveboots.bsky.social on the process used by Elections Canada to keep the count totally safe and secure. A good watch! www.youtube.com/watch?v=dneY...

Podcasters during ad breaks: Good news, guys. You can fix your credit while you sleep with MoneyPillow.

Showbiz Fact: You’ll never see side-eye like you will if you stroll into work on a TV set at 11am and say β€œgood morning” to people.

The Candy Man. Bad melody, worse lyrics, nobody sounds good singing it, also kinda creepy.
