Can’t remember the last time the Oilers scored 6 goals and McDavid only had one point

Fake advertisement for Draft Kings in a print copy of The Onion. In the front of a photo of a house with a foreclosure sign, it reads: "Draft Kings Earn a free $10 toward buying back your house."

Danielle Smith the last 3 months - The Courts are the worst! Biased! Appointed by Justin Trudeau! That's why we had to notwithstanding clause!

Smith today - The courts are unbiased and the best!

It's almost as if it isn't about the courts at all...

Skinner is looking good tonight. But I’m still waiting for the other shoe to drop.

So far this Oilers game has been a total snooze fest, and the UCP’s education funding propaganda (sorry, β€œcommercials”) during every break aren’t helping with the entertainment value.

I’d like to toot my own horn here, as well as that of my friends, by acknowledging that this month marks the 20th anniversary of the Oilogosphere. For those who don’t know, that’s the name given to the group of Edmonton Oilers bloggers who appeared after the 2005 NHL lockout. 🧡/1

Grateful I remembered to cancel my Sportsnet+ subscription today and renew it at the lower annual rate before the price increases tomorrow.

Need 600 dollars due to recent personal tragedy. Picture is not related, I cannot figure out how to delete it. The money is not for that. I don’t know what it is even

Are you sure you’re listening? 🀨

Danielle Smith’s waste-of-taxpayer-money β€œAlberta Next” panels turned rowdy in Edmonton.

It’s clear they’re not interested in hearing from Albertans. The UCP just wants to continue to push their costly, destabilizing ideas on Alberta.

I encourage all Alberta chuds to defy this bear lockdown. They should express their civil liberties while walking around eating a sandwich.

Danielle Smith is traveling back from Mexico today, but you won't ever see the receipts. ❌

She and the UCP scrapped the rule that required her to show Albertans the bill.

What happened to the Danielle Smith who wanted government transparency?

People suck.

Most of them are good. But enough of them are awful that it makes it so much harder for the rest of us.

Be better.

On my third viewing, I can now finally admit that K-Pop Demon Hunters is pretty cool.

Golden is a banger.

I love Zoe.

If you listen really hard you can still hear the radio jingle.

And even if they are bad people they still have a right to representation.

But many are not as bad as the government says

While we’re still figuring out life on Earth, Voyager 1 is 15 billion miles away, cruising on 69KB, an 8-track, and 1977s Fortran like it’s nothing.

Nervously, I close the bag. β€œNo way,” I tell myself. β€œIt’s not like she’s gonna count the fries.” I start to sweat.

Tried it. Not the same unfortunately. I don’t drink much. But I love bourbon.

I’ll be honest, as much as I’ve taken a strong stance against the USA I draw the line at bourbon.

We went to Japan to go to Disney. I won’t be back to the USA until that guy is gone.

I’m not drinking the peaty bog water that is scotch and I’m not a huge fan of rye either.

A man has his limits

Watching King of the Hill, I think it's safe to say the Simpsons really borked it by not closing up shop after season 12 or so and coming back down the road with a reboot featuring all the heavy hitters that made the show what it was in its prime

Sipping a bourbon. Watching a campfire with a lake in the background. Listening to my kids run down to the water to look for bats.

Can’t be better than this.

I heard from my cousin that if you stare into a clock and say "Flava Flav! Flava Flav! Flava Flav" at exactly midnight his face will appear and he'll yell "YEEAAH BOOYYY" so I tried it last night and he did appear and looked me right in the eyes and gently whispered "it's actually Flavor Flav"
