I was at MISTI-Con, I played quidditch and water polo, I am an archivist, and I was at the U of S. That should about cover the people who need to know where they know me.

Hey, @devinheroux.bsky.social, do you happen to know what type of music the ballet folks danced to in the Closing Ceremonies? Was it still the House or did they blend styles?

I have been wondering why we aren't doing that. It was 3% and now it's 5%. Congratulations on your big win, DonDon.

Perhaps that's the New New NAFTA negotiation plan?

The Toronto police union getting mad that the Inspector General is ordering a province-wide review of policing is very funny to me. Why? You don't have anything to hide, do you? Just comply! If you haven't done anything wrong, there won't be trouble!

The humans of the middle lands of the Coyote Continent are so much more joyous, diverse, strong, and resilient than the goons, grifters, and ideologues of the Angry Orange Grandpa regime can even imagine.

The road ahead will be difficult, but ends in their shame and defeat

Today’s shooting of two East Portland neighbors is part of a pattern of violence. This is the Trump administration’s mass deportation agenda in action.

Let me tell you right now: they are not going to win.

And his new province. This has just deeply devalued Alberta oil, an already discounted product.

And by supporting the US in this, we've just deeply devalued Alberta oil -- the US will happily steal bitumen from Venezuela for free instead of paying a discount rate for ours.

We're wrong economically at least twice on this one. Terrible.

See, it's perfectly normal to know you have to wear that pair of pink corduroy pants on regular rotation even though they make your legs itch because otherwise they'd feel left out.

That's what this article says, right?

(I'd be in the neurotypical group in this study, so that must be it)

Yipeng holding a sign that reads β€œDr. Hussam Abu Safiya was abducted one year ago… FREE THEM ALL”

One year ago, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya was abducted by the Israeli military along with dozens of other medical staff during a horrific raid on the Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza, Palestine on December 27, 2024.

Free Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya.
Free them all.

Sounds a lot like what was said before Putin's 3 Day War.

And how did Afghanistan go again?

Never underestimate the resistance to an invasion.

Horse stall with decorations for Christmas with a Grinch theme, including a green Grinch hand holding a red Christmas bauble on a blue background, a Grinch tablecloth, and a small stocking that says "Naughty is the new Nice" on it.

Made this plan (and drew the Grinch hand) for this stall decoration at my barn. Not even for my horse.

From what I've heard, they're setting this up so it frees any President the Supreme Court agrees with to do as they want and binds any future Presidents they don't. Explicitly entrenching the whole protect / bind issue.

I think they didn't track Canada separately from the US, as I've seen that in tonnes of places and have yet to see any screenshots of Canada.

And she was herself a 12 year old girl, 8 year old girl, 15 year old girl once. Wild that she has somehow forgotten what that was like. Were her interests and hopes and dreams so terrible then?

Ohhh mannnn. I try not to post things I haven't seen the original of. But this is too silly if true (just like their app excuse).

Wow. As a person from The World ... wow. Delusional. How do they not know about all the soft power he's destroyed? A lot of Republican-dominated areas were directly negatively impacted by his attack on USAID.
