Is it saying something about the algorithms that Prime Video keeps recommending Isla: She-Wolf of The S.S. to me?

I guess a Canadian based team gets one finals win per year and we used ours on Four Nations Face Off.

Well, that was a heart break. Canada’s had a crappy 2025, being a punching bag for that arsehole and all. A World Series for the Jays would have given the country a much needed, if entirely symbolic, win.

In peak 2025 form, all the ads on City TV in Canada are about how how the Blue Jays are Canada’s team, and how we need to strip mine an area called β€œthe ring of fire” in northern Ontario

I like the credit card advert where the guy uses his points to fly out to see his brother and newborn nephew. Because if there is one thing new parents love, it’s unexpected guests.

I hope that, over the course of this series, Geddy Lee and the big muscle guy have become friends.

O Canada sung before any game other than at the Bell Centre is like bilingual roulette. Will they sing in French? How many lines? Will they get the words right? Will they sing in French in the US like Rufus Wainwright did?

Watching a 1975 concert featuring Electric Light Orchestra doing a cover of In The Hall of The Mountain King and it becomes really clear why punk happened.

The only thing of his I’ve watched is House of Usher and I kept meaning to check out his other stuff. Damn, this is good.

It may be November but I’m gonna keep that Halloween feeling inside me all year long and I’m starting by finally watching The Haunting of Hill House.

Most of the people coming for Erika Kirk forget that when her husband died, Coretta Scott King launched a successful assassination merch store, a multi-stadium tour, and came out on stage to fireworks wearing leather pants and made out with VP Hubert Humphrey.
