I've been lucky enough to work on FROM as a background actor for a few years now, and it has been *such* a blast. Really great people involved, from top to bottom, and Harold Perrineau in particular is a super nice guy. Can't recommend this show enough!
Banning cameras during QP would probably go a long way. Just release text transcripts. Right now, MPs are just using question period to farm clips for social media.
blexas and blississpi would probably destroy the GOP's fighting spirit
Mississippi is on @runforsomething.net's Battle Up list for a reason -- we believe with sustained investment and smart plays, MS can be a long-term battleground. There's potential here 👀
Trump may be the current avatar for US Fascism, but he would not have been able to get where he is without massive institutional collusion, and support from the US media and electorate.
When Trump is gone, the evil will remain. Pretending that Canada can ever go "back to normal" is totally foolish.
sacré bleu!
If your boss tells you to do something unsafe, and the result is that people die, you are both responsible. Your boss for telling you to do it, and you for listening.
And since we're talking about it, has the US ATC who killed two of our pilots been arrested yet? Has he even been *fired* yet?
For all we know, this was the same guy!
This is coming like a month after another US ATC killed two Canadian pilots by directing a fire truck into their landing path. Now another US ATC nearly caused a mid-air collision. Criminal negligence, from the top to bottom.
Boycott all travel to the former USA. It could save your life.
A US air traffic controller killed two Canadian pilots like a month ago by directing a fire truck into the path of a landing plane.
Now, another US ATC nearly caused a mid-air collision.
DO. NOT. FLY. TO. AMERICA.
The USA is not safe to visit under any circumstances, but especially not by plane.
We spoke with Khn and Klek about their band Angine de Poitrine.
“The concept behind this project was to take a satirical approach to rock music. The double-neck guitar was the perfect choice to make fun of guitar heroes.”
The thing is, he was able to build these grand schools more cheaply than schools had been built in the past through the use of steel skeletons (extremely uncommon in low-rise buildings at the time) rather than structural masonry. He also copied school plans to cut design costs.
There's actually a fun story behind this: the guy who was NYC superintendent of school buildings from 1891 to 1923 was an architect who believed in holistic learning, and wanted to inspire kids to rise out of poverty by giving them a sense of the possibility of granduer through construction.
With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
Whether it's JD Vance telling the Pope not to stick his nose in Theology, or Pierre Poilievre claiming that Mark Carney is bad at Economics, we are truly living through a Golden Age of self-entitled mediocrities whose only move is projecting their own inadequacy upon their critics and opponents.
Remember how a key feature of the recent Hungarian election that ousted Viktor Orban was the building of a broad cross-ideological anti-corruption coalition?
I feel like that detail is going to be important, going forward.
"We're not going to fund any security until we see some better security around here!" is a deeply trump-brained sort of tactic.
IDF Public Relations: "So hey everyone, world opinion has really been turning against us since the whole 'genocide' thing. Any ideas for how to turn it around?
Pvt. Gallagher: "Put me in, coach!"
I like to approach writing like mining, and editing like refining.
When you're writing, the job is just to keep digging. Don't worry about quality, just get the the words out of your brain. Then, later, you can sift through it all, and separate out the Good Stuff from the rocks and dirt.

happy to help!
History major here. This isn't funny. Canadian Prime Ministers only invoke the War of 1812 when under extreme distress.
But it's on all of us, especially white Canadians, to stamp out the growing xenophobic anti-immigrant hate movement that has been growing here, nurtured by bigots and cynical political opportunists.
Like, the legalize weed guy is a nazi now? When the fuck did that happen?
All our issues notwithstanding, it feels damn good to live in a country where people want to go to feel free. That shit matters.

This conjures a memory of the best mayor NYC ever had. Here's the Little Flower, reading the funny pages to kids on the radio and loving his job as Mamdani clearly does.

Man, I love Spring. The apples I didn't pick up last Fall have composted in place, the leaves I didn't rake have broken down into mulch, the dead plant stems and twigs I didn't collect are cozy homes for emerging pollinators. All around me are peaceful testaments to the virtue of Not Doing.
Do you eat Quaker Oats?
The CPC is incapable of elevating their politics to meet Canadian culture, so they are determined to degrade Canadian culture until it matches their politics.
