RILEY JABOUR!!!

I used to like to scan random objects with barcodes into MyFitnessPal so if you try to eat a 42” Samsung Plasma TV there is an estimate of the macros in there.

Looked up why they’re called the Dodgers and it turns out it evolved from the the nickname Trolly Dodgers because back in the day their fans kept nearly getting hit by streetcars. That’s like re-naming the Frontenacs to the Kingston Ontario That One House On Centennial That Buses Keep Driving Into.

Just heard a Gen Z walking past the lineup for the Sloan show wonder aloud “is it last name Sloan or first name Sloan?” and immediately felt 100 years old.

A lot of people don’t know this but Would by Alice In Chains is also about Travis Kelce’s hog.

I fucking love watching bad things happen to yankees.

Also I am told there is a baseball game on.

This is where I post from

Someone please tell me @jeffrosenstock.bsky.social’s set time for tonight so I know when I need to roll out to the ol’ PUP show!

I’ve been thinking of jumping over to Obsidian ever since Omnivore died but I’m hesitant that it might be *too* much for my needs. Your section on note-taking sounds relevant to my use case; have you found any success with the web clipper tool vs copy and pasting into markdown?

Remember when they walled off LUE because it was too unruly? I cannot comprehend the level of despair the mods who chose to do that must experience when they look at literally any modern social media.

Man, this was a trip down memory lane. I spent my entire teen years on the WWE Games Social Board, which eventually got de-listed and became a hidden board and a weird close knit internet community for a couple dozen nerds.

Overheard at the Menzingers show: “You going in the pit?” “FUCK no. I have work in the morning. I am thirty six years old.”

Anyway if anyone knows how to turn off crossfade on Spotify DJ I’m all ears because this robot idiot is walking all over the post and stomping on the end of songs. Someone please invent Spotify PD to aircheck this abomination.

It’s the same gamut of emotions I ran after seeing Smile. Did I like it? No, it was just The Ring but with smiling, but it made a bunch of money and I bet there’s someone out there who’s gonna make a movie I really like and they’ll cite Smile as an influence for some reason I won’t comprehend.

As a radio guy I actually kinda like Spotify DJ. Not because it’s good (it very much is not) but because it sucks so hard that it might inspire someone with actual talent to go “this fucking sucks, I could do this” and then go do it.

Dang, the wind turbines on Wolfe Island really are perfectly situated according to that map!

CM Punk 40 seconds after learning the new pope is from Chicago

new pope just dropped

I’m not a sports guy so maybe this is more widely known, but I always see the trailer for that Boston Celtics documentary before The Last Of Us starts; at any point in that doc do they address why they pronounce Celtics like that?

I have done commentary for precisely one (1) show at Chinlock and had the time of my life. I’m sure you’ve got way more experienced and better options but may as well shoot my shot!

Down With The Sickness by Disturbed is The New Noise by Refused for people with Blue Lives Matter flags.

Please tell me this was the gun recovered from the scene

Strategic voting isn’t enough, I need my least favourite candidate to suffer psychic damage when I vote against them.

Not a playing/watching/reading/downloading one, BUT! I saw your callout for healthy(ish) snacks on last week’s Installer. I’ve been trying to eat more plant-based protein in my snacking habits and have gotten really into Three Farmers’ crispy chickpeas. Bonus that they’re all Canadian!

Did they hire whoever did the Kendrick mix from the Super Bowl to do the Sum 41 mix at the Junos?

The article mentions how higher end e-bikes can go for $6K-8K in a context that implies they want to come in below that, which gives me a little faith. They totally still could botch it and just do a cheap frame with a hub motor slapped in it and sell that for four grand though.

There is a non-zero chance that somewhere in this man’s home is a crumpled up piece of paper with “SLOGAN IDEAS: Pierre If You Dare?” written on it, scribbled out, and tossed frustratedly into a corner.

“Huge man solves problems by being huge” is an accurate plot summary of both the Jack Reacher series on Amazon and the Desjardins insurance commercials featuring a friendly giant.

You ever think about how the dryer is just a big air fryer for clothes

For anyone else constantly asking “what the fuck can I even do about all of ✨this?✨” every time you read the news/social media/glance south at Lake Ontario, I really enjoyed the first episode of Elbows Up from @jordanhr.bsky.social. It presents some options that feel actionable, which feels nice.
