Hickory Sticks. In a world of uncertainty, you are always there. Always in stick form. Always with a hint of hickory taste. You are a warrior. Stay true to your beginning and you will always have my support (my support is eating you).

The Sad Spectacle of American Comedians Selling Out in Saudi Arabia It turns out that edgy free-speech warriors will scuttle their principles for a check from a brutal autocratic regime.

My new piece, up now @thenation.com: "If only trans activists had known what size check to cut for Chappelle, they could have shut him up years ago and saved themselves all the picketing at Netflix." www.thenation.com/article/cult...

Why on earth would anyone want to go to a UCP panel if you are treated like scum? This isn’t democratic. It’s authoritarian through and through. Kudos to the crowd in attendance for reacting in real time.

Climate people, did the fossil fuel industry seed and propagate the idea that renewables (specifically batteries) require materials, which require mining, which is bad (so implicitly we should just run on fossil fuels forever)? It's just striking to me how devoutly people repeat it unexamined....

And I heard it’s $750 for a ticket. These are not poor students being rowdy. It is embarrassing for the US. I’m glad Europe is crushing.

As an Albertan who has been waiting for surgery for nearly a year now, I’m glad my issue isn’t life threatening. I haven’t even been able to meet the specialist yet to schedule a surgery. But, whatever. At least I don’t get photo radar tickets going 130 on Deerfoot. Thanks UCP! #garbagegovernment

Alberta's Smith directs jobs minister to secure provincial control over immigration EDMONTON - Premier Danielle Smith is directing her jobs minister to use "all legal means" possible to give Alberta more control over immigration.

Unless she wants to change the constitution, Danielle Smith can howl into the void.
The fact that she is playing footsies with racists (and white nationalist, because this is Alberta), however, is a problem that we should actually call out.

The guy that owns that place comes across as a guy that would do this. Used to own Riley’s Cattle Barn in Okotoks as well which failed. It had the worst service I’ve ever seen at a restaurant. This doesn’t surprise me, just a selfish cash grab that I’m sure goes directly to him.

If a president wanted to become effectively a dictator, he’d likely:

1. Purge govt of non loyalists
2. Weaponize law against opponents
3. Use military to police opposition strongholds
4. Threaten media, schools, businesses w penalties to get them to heel
5. Change election rules in his favor.

Thought: people in the US aren’t fighting back hard enough against Trump’s fascist regime because they are more worried about putting food on the table for their family. A huge number of the population is struggling to get by. Family first. Fight fascists second. It’s the perfect storm.

I sent ChatGPT a picture of a tiny bug today that was about 1-3 mm in length. After several turns, it decided it was a moth. It had no wings. And that’s a paid subscription.

Hypothetically. If fucking a pig meant that there would definitely be 2026 elections and the Dems would sweep Congress in a landslide , would you fuck a pig ?

Or, Is is that thought so abhorrent, you couldn’t bring yourself to do it. Even at the expense of staying the minority?

Awesome! So my 16 year old son with brain cancer who is on chemo can get it, but the rest of his family who live with him cannot because we can’t afford it. I can’t stand this government.

This doesn’t make sense at all and is very naive. You want US politics to not shape policy discussions? Isn’t that what your elected government is mandated to do??

They’ll never hear from him again. And hopefully at the leadership review in January, nobody will. Carney needs to pass a law requiring Federal party leaders need to get too security clearance. That will get rid of him.

I went to Twitter where I learned what's up.

Texas State Rep. Gene Wu is staying overnight along with Rep. Nicole Collier. Phew! I'm so relieved she wasn't left on her own.

They explain what they're doing and ask everybody watching to resist in their own way.

Yes, I got bloodied up on my fall off of our electric scooter last night. Yes, I also probably have a mild concussion. But my man, show some compassion. Just look me in the eyes once. I beg you.
