My very-compulsively-early dad did this while waiting for me and my wife to show at the Marriage Bureau for our own wedding.

Everything I have learned about these losers has been against my will.

The lies linking me with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man need to end today. I never chose him as the form of the Destructor. I never had a relationship with him or Gozer the Gozerian. My memories of him cannot be categorized as anything more than roasting Stay Puft marshmallows at Camp Waconda.

Let. Him. Cook.

And to be cherished even more now as something human in the age of AI slop.

Carney needs a governing philosophy more substantial than budget cuts and "I'm not Pierre Poilievre." This is not the way.

The previous owner was a Greek immigrant, so I chalked it up to English not being his first language.

When I lived in Brooklyn, my apartment was a short walk away from the diner in this article. Sad to see that a nice place to grab a burger is now being run by some idiot with an AI-poisoned brain.

Even before AI guy took over, the sign outside said "Daisey's" while the menus said "Daisy's"

The ice shed of a curling club. The ice is in the process of melting

End of curling season or world’s shallowest swimming pool?

A fairly decent Greek lager

Nuke Launch Sequence | Wargames (1983) Full Opening Scene | 1080p YouTube video by Necromantix

Thinking about the opening scene of WarGames a lot today. No particular reason, I guess.

Niagara Falls (either one)

This could be an album cover

Oh, hey, cool: the kind of stuff my grandparents had to deal with is back.

People need to stop treating politics like fandom and stop being so weird to @erinbiba.bsky.social. Using First Amendment rights to demand that elected officials (especially the ones you agree with) keep their promises is Good, Actually.

Fair point. Guess I'm showing my Catholicism there. I could have gone with transubstantiation / metaousiosis, but that seemed a bit wordy.

This reads like an extreme interpretation of the True Presence that no Catholic or Orthodox church would recognize. You need to refamiliarize yourself with the distinction between substance and accidents.

I was not ready for caked-up Grimace

In the Irish language,
Seoirse = George
saoirse = freedom

It’s not an article, but I laughed myself hoarse at the standalone headline “Buddy System Responsible for Additional Death”

A small sandwich shop in Centretown, Ottawa, called Subito Sandwich

To the tune of Suddenly Seymour:

The Library and Archives building in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It’s a boxy concrete building with glass windows.

Currently sequestered in suburban Ottawa, but got to sneak off downtown today. Spent some time at Library and Archives Canada to participate in a usability testing session for ādisōke, their upcoming joint facility with Ottawa Public Library.

This site needs a break. Post 3 good things, none of which are the cessation of a negative.

1. The sound of skates gliding on ice

2. When the cat who "doesn't like people" sits on your lap

3. The look of recognition after your person has scanned a crowd for you and sees you

1. White South Africans are not subject to persecution, otherwise these people would not be going back.

2. When I was in high school in the US, I probably wouldn't have minded if my rugby coach (who was a Boer) got persecuted a little.

Well timed! I needed that stretch.

One of my smartest friends read Classics at Jesus College, Cambridge. And now I learn that Prince Edward blundered into the same college with a C and 2 Ds. Incredible.

How are the prison librarians and library technicians going to Buy Canadian without jobs?
