What the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group promised Ottawa residents versus what OSEG actually delivered:

a good mindset in general is to stop letting these ostensible journalists slip into passive voice whenever referring to the administration's actions. they talk about Trump the same way you'd ask someone what their plan is if a hurricane makes landfall in your district.

What a whiplash it must’ve been for Emma to win the by-election to being one of the only two votes against Gillingham’s stupid passion project

Kyle Connor replies by carving up the defensive zone and a tight backhand roofing it. Two beautiful goals for the fans

Whew, Burakovsky with a shot and goal in between multiple sets of legs to top shelf. Tip of the cap to that one

Wasn’t the problem with the Rutherford Penguins at the end of his tenure was that they also had a high injury rate?

The Chicago Bedards don’t look good without Connor Bedard on the ice.

Haha, what a fun relatable kid, destroying elite baseball players! *milkshake duck* his doomscrolling is the alt-right wing algorithm of “owning the libs” content based on following Trump et al

6/16, and all it cost was my sanity and faith in the average voter

I told him that I was born in Russia and was a writer. He showed me a list he’d written of his favourite desserts in the city. It was a sober hobby he’d started during the pandemic, going to restaurants by himself, sampling sweets. He made a lot of lists, he said, most of them food-related. I asked what other kinds he made. “Lists of lies liberal white women tell about Donald Trump,” he replied. Suddenly, his leg was shaking. He grabbed the edges of the table and raised his voice: “White, liberal women are a plague on our society.” He proceeded to drink 11 iced coffees.

A writer tried dating alt-right men as an experiment to learn about them. There is so much going on here I don't even know where to start

FCC Votes to Gut Broadband 'Nutrition Labels.' Here’s What It Means for You The Republican-led commission votes to eliminate requirements like itemizing broadband fees and displaying labels in customer accounts.

literally every single day I write about some consumer protection standard it took a decade to build getting destroyed by weird Trump zealots

yet, for some curious reason, the idea that Republicans are corrupt liars maliciously undermining the public interest isn't a dominant narrative in media

Opinion | A Nazi Tattoo Exposes Democrats’ Greatest Weakness

honestly the only piece worth reading on the platner situation. @tressiemcphd.bsky.social is absolutely cooking here. (gift link)

5+ minute interview with Kris King, a clip of a goal, then cut to commercial. It's like they want this thing to fail.

Now they're scrolling through tweets and showing behind-the-scenes production while 4 games are on. Why are you showing me this. Show me the games. This is the whole idea of the show. Why are you going against the entire idea of the show.

No offence to the trio of Buccigross, Weekes, and Kaplan - they're real good at their jobs - but last I unmuted they were talking about some sports science thing while two power plays were going on. Literally worse value than not saying anything at all

I see the ESPN Frozen Frenzy thing still hasn't learned that part of the appeal of RedZone is that we get to hear all the local announcers and Scott Hanson only interjects when necessary

Wait a minute, I barely watch baseball to begin with. I’m going to bed

Just Toronto sports things, lol

Wildcat! Wildcat! Wildcat!

Frame: food stamps are used by undeserving / Black people

Negation: actually many people on food stamps are deserving / white

Kirby: THEY ARE STARVING PEOPLE ON PURPOSE. They are using racist tropes to justify it bc many people will find that persuasive. Everyone deserves to eat

Just brain farted the entire game away in the 3rd period. Self inflicted wounds from lineup decisions to plays on the ice to lack of awareness. Against a team on a B2B. Utah deserves credit but Winnipeg didn’t make it a challenge for them.

Why are the Jets playing this like an actual penalty kill? Took them forever to put 55-81 out there and try to keep possession instead of dumping it

And Utah played yesterday too!

Out of all the Jets recent acquisitions, maybe Nyquist pisses me off the least. Pearson and Schenn are too slow for the modern NHL, and Fleury looks like he should be able to keep up, but only with the puck on his stick. Jets can’t keep up with Utah’s more frequent and faster attacks in waves

Unfortunately, the Kyle Connor backcheck into a counterattack goal is not the norm for the Jets awful second periods

Durand-Wood wins Elmwood-East Kildonan council seat in decisive byelection victory Community activist and first-time candidate earns 31% of the vote

A community activist and volunteer will be the next city councillor for Elmwood-East Kildonan.

I'll admit I haven't watched one Moose game this year (yet) but I found it funny when everyone was excited about all the players that went through waivers meant that they would be a good team this year... they are coached to their NHL floors, not their individual ceilings

Can I get a hell yeah

Hopefully will be able to take advantage of any NFL insurance. That's probably it for his career as a player

Not a good sign to be clutching the same knee that you tore three ligaments in last year
