The Hero of Kvatch 🇨🇦

In a world full of Wayne Gretzkys, be a Mario Lemieux

At this point me and Abe have cancelled every streaming service except crunchyroll. We rent a movie probably every couple of weeks and go to the movie theater maybe once a month (if a good movie comes out). IDK how studios expect people to have time for infinitely generated slop.

YouTube video by Philtration Crosby Stills Nash & Young - "Down By The River" (Big Sur CA 1969)

As it's Neil Young's 80th, here's maybe my favourite clip of him in action. Not a solo thing, weirdly, but the CSNY torching of Down By The River at Celebration Big Sur. The face-off with Stills is for the ages. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNnM...

Made a giant bowl of air popped Popcorn with melted butter and salt... and I am both extremely pleased and sad at the same time. Too much of a good thing.

Yay!! They totally deserve this!

So at this point we have a baseball betting scandal, an NBA betting scandal so I give it about 6 months before we discover that both of these combined are about 2% of the NFL betting scandal

Still feeling Young at heart. Now playing “Everybody Knows This is Nowhere” by Neil Young and Crazy Horse. The song that made me an instant fan? “Cinnamon Girl”

I have to admit, I still use Amazon. I use it to find vendors and then go to their individual websites and order. Many times, it's the same price, free shipping and I cut out Bezos from getting a cut. Fuck the oligarchs.

They have no intention of negotiating anyway. The point of Tarrifs and awful behaviour is to inflict pain.

You cannot appease a bully it just gets worse and worse. We need to stand up to them. No Oil. No Electricity. No Potash. No Timber. Redirect Markets. It will hurt as the bully realizes they are no longer being listened to and lash out but they will do that anyway until there is nothing left.

Between the Game Pass price hike, that Asus thing being DOA, getting removed from Costco, and now Halo to PlayStation, sure feels like Microsoft is speed running Sega’s Dreamcast era over the course of a month.

If they were trying to kill their console business, I’m not sure what else they would do

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

I have two more weeks on #Gamepass before it expires. I had paid up using Points but with the 50% increase in price it was time to say goodbye. I was a day one subscriber and played a lot of games I wouldn't have otherwise with it, but $33.99/mth $CA + taxes is way too much. #Microsoft

With the #Steamdeck Dock I've even been able to play several games like Hollow Knight and Brotato @ 1080p 120FPS with the Steamdeck. It's a surprising and little powerhouse. I love it's versatility as an alternative gaming PC to my main setup.

Was using an Anker USB Hub as a Dock and it was great also but kind of messy with wires sticking out and unable to passthru VRR or HDR to the monitor. I can't emphasize enough how much of a difference VRR makes to smooth out performance.

Ordered the #Steamdeck Dock and It's really working well. Being able to passthru VRR and HDR to my 4k monitor changes the look and feel of the Steamdeck completely. Have been playing Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart @ 1080p 60fps with FSR, smooth thanks to VRR and good looking thanks to HDR and FSR. ❤️

Nobody cares about EA Play and Ubisoft classics. Remove them from Gamepass Ultimate and lower the price. Alternatively, add Day 1 releases to Gamepass Premium.

I am watching another american company(Quaker commercial), Maplewashing, their existence here. Quaker *has* been in Canada(Never been Canadian) a long time and is *owned by Pepsico*!
american companies are scared to death of our boycotts...Yaaayyyyy,it's working

When did professional sports go into overdrive with loud music? Pumping music after every pitch in baseball. Pumping music after every possession in basketball. Pumping music after every down in football. We can’t just enjoy the din of the game? We have to be told, they loud music, to cheer?

Canceled #Xbox Gamepass tonight. I've been subscribed since day 1, but this is just too much. No longer even close to being worth it. They really have lost their minds with this increase. 50% more for no benefit, I don't want cloud and already own most of what's in Ubisoft Classic. Zero Value Add.
