The 2026 Atlantic storm name list: Arthur Bertha Cristobal Dolly Edouard Fay Gonzalo Hanna Isaias Josephine Kyle Leah Marco Nana Omar Paulette Rene Sally Teddy Vicky Wilfred
the 2026 Atlantic hurricane names have been released, and I need to tell you all right now that if I get swept off this mortal coil by a storm named Kyle I am haunting the halls of the World Meteorological Organization until the end of time
Twitter post from @b0newalljackson reading: 90’s dads were like “ yeah my six year old can handle terminator 2: judgment day “
when I was 10 years old my dad looked at me and went “you’re probably old enough to watch The Ring, right?” and I went “definitely” and boy was I not qualified to make that particular judgement call
it’s kind of a shame that people think of the “Bob and Doug McKenzie” accent as the only Canadian accent. As a Maritimer raised in small-town Alberta, I’m out here making vowel sounds you can hardly begin to imagine.
Oh you’re Catholic and you disagree with the Pope? Maybe you should make a list of all the things you disagree with. Really dig deep, make it a nice long list. 95 seems like a good number. And then post that list somewhere he can see it, like maybe nailed to a church door.
this week, I am writing important war journalism in The Beaverton
It’s a family holiday, so we’ve got a family anecdote. Luke tells Ian, @mmmegan.bsky.social, and special guest @verybadllama.bsky.social the secrets of birthday party parenting.
I lived in the US for years and was so surprised by the genuine fear of missing the filing date. 10% of Canadian adults just straight-up do not file their taxes at all.

every American I know: if my taxes aren't filed by 11:59pm on April 15th the IRS will kick down my door at the stroke of midnight and drag me into the street
every Canadian I know: I file my taxes every 4-6 Septembers depending on the phase of the moon and whether I feel like it
things my mother asks for when she wants to watch “Only Murders In the Building”:
- There is Death In My Neighborhood
- There’s a Mystery in My Apartment
- Everyone Dies in Our Building
- Martin Short
I think this is the first time I've truly appreciated how staggeringly, unbelievably incompetent you must have to be to bankrupt a casino.
sure, shutting down the National Park Service will leave the US effectively defenseless against what is predicted to be a record-setting year for wildfires, but if it's any comfort, it turns out you might die in a class warfare toilet paper fire first
there's just no way that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords could be even half as bad as this
kind of starting to feel like we might just skip right past the "stock up on rice and toilet paper" apocalypse and go straight to the "learn how to bang rocks together to make fire" apocalypse
I didn't vote to burn my house down. I just voted to pour gasoline all over everything I own and then handed the keys to Crazy Arson Jim. I thought it would be funny to watch the fumes bother the guy next door, how was I supposed to know this would happen?
I know remakes are all the rage right now but this Donnie Darko reboot looks terrible
found out that my brother always thought Jesus was just tied to the cross for a bit and then let go after a while. temporarily inconvenienced for our sins.
lol we’re from Petit-Rocher
instead of the “Irish goodbye” I will be piloting the “Maritimer goodbye”, which is when you casually drop the name of a relative as you’re getting ready to leave and have to stay for two more hours comparing family trees until you and the host discover you are distant cousins
How will Avi Lewis lure voters back to the NDP? Luke, Ian, @mmmegan.bsky.social , and special guest @verybadllama.bsky.social dish the inside dirt.
Jesus: [breaks bread] this is my body
Jesus: [pours wine] this is my blood
Jesus: [strums the opening chords of Space Oddity] this is ground control to Major Tom
fly me to the moon
but don’t make me use Outlook (new)
I’d rather just use Discord

DO YOU WANT TO BE THE NEW ATTORNEY GENERAL
being unprepared to take a Native American rights question from Gorsuch is sort of like being surprised that the Duolingo owl wants you to practice Spanish
it makes sense that they’d send a Canadian on the Artemis II, there is no one better suited to sharing cramped quarters with three strangers than a person who has experienced the Ontario housing market
"stock up on your prescription medications"
ma'am I am on a controlled substance, if I so much as smile too much while I'm picking up a refill they make me swear a blood oath that I'm not selling my meds behind the nearest 7/11
I made a guest appearance on The Beaverton podcast this week!
Interested in Canadian politics? Go listen to it
Don't know the first thing about Canadian politics? Listen to it anyway, everyone on there is funny
seeing a lot of "higher gas prices won't affect me because I don't drive very much" and unfortunately it is my sad duty to inform you that your food does not teleport to the grocery store
Title card for the video game “Fallout New Vegas”
if anyone needs me, I’ll be playing “Second Half of 2026 Simulator”
