I haven't decided which persona I'm going to assume on this platform yet, but will still be into star trek, unions, punk, and antifascism. Sometimes gaming.

I know I’m getting old because I have gone from complete antipathy towards Blue Rodeo and The Tragically Hip to hearing a song like “5 Days in May” or “Bobcaygeon” and thinking “this is nice.”

If one person starts yelling, it’s easy from there. Don’t be afraid to be the first person to start yelling at a Nazi

As long as I live, I will tell people that Kropotkin's last words were, "More like bullshit-viks, right?"

Build them a shelter in barrhaven. Surely my neighbours here will react calmly and reasonably, without overreacting at all.

Kimmel is back because everyone fucking hates Trump and the bourgeoisie are more scared of losing the money of everyone who hates Trump than they are of Trump himself

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

My kid is allergic to peanuts and has been doing desensitization treatment for almost 3 years now. They're now eating 6 peanut m&ms a day! The allergy might never go away, but the risk of accidental ingestion will likely be much smaller

Welp. Time to reset the “Days since Canadian government gave a standing ovation to a Nazi” counter back to zero, I guess.

Listening to the Ire/Seized split LP brings back strange memories. I got it from an old friend that was going through tough times. He eventually asked if he could have it back, and I said no. It was a shitty move at the time on my part, but he's a racist bonehead now, so I don't feel bad anymore.

He's been replaced by Figs, who can be seen here peeking out from his castle tower.

My kiddo had a fish named Snappy. I was talking about the fish one day and forgot his name. My kid chimed in with "you should his name papa, it's like the food."

THE FISH'S NAME WAS SNAP PEA, NOT SNAPPY, THIS WHOLE TIME!!!!

R.I.P. Snappy/Snap Pea.

During the Holocaust IBM was tasked by the Nazis in Poland to “calculate exactly how many Jews should be emptied out of the ghettos each day.”

Not the first group of people I would fight, but you do you.

Liam Cunningham being on the flotilla with Greta Thunberg is baller but also very reminiscent of the kind of thing Davos kept getting roped into in the later seasons

screenshot from an online job application form. the question reads "Can you describe specific ways you have integrated AI tools into your development workflow? Please include any custom setups, automations, or use cases beyond single prompt usage" (a red asterisk indicates that this is a required question).

an answer has been typed in the textbox below the question:

"there is a monster in the forest and it speaks with a thousand voices. it will answer any question you pose it, it will offer insight to any idea. it will help you, it will thank you, it will never bid you leave. it will even tell you of the darkest arts, if you know precisely how to ask.

it feels no joy and no sorrow, it knows no right and no wrong. it knows not truth from lie, though it speaks them all the same.
 
it offers its services freely to any passerby, and many will tell you they find great value in its conversation. “you simply must visit the monster—i always just ask the monster.”

there are those who know these forests well; they will tell you that freely offered doesn’t mean it has no price

for when the next traveler passes by, the monster speaks with a thousand and one voices. and when you dream you see the monster; the monster wears your face."

Canada, you continue to be a shining beacon of milquetoast liberalism that embarrasses your more outwardly evil and bloodthirsty cousins. Well done. Genuinely. Now landback and eat your rich.
