I would like to announce that I WILL NOT be a candidate for Pope in the upcoming election.
This is due to family reasons as my married-with-kid lifestyle is incompatible with the papacy. Also, there is the fact that as an atheist my views may sometimes conflict with those of the church.
Thank you.

What it feels like pushing 8 months of work to production… youtu.be/zVf-rehP4b8
Son: “DAD! This is an ALLOSAURUS!”
Me: “But you can call him Al.”
My 80’s references are lost on these Gen Alphas.
My totally meaningless protest. The bird site is completely blocked at this house.
Seriously? Are people just now cottoning on to the fact that Wayne Gretzky is a Trump-loving, anti-Canada MAGAt? He’s been a douchebag for a long, long time! #Canada
I don’t understand the house across the way from us. During the PSAC strike they had big “I support my union!” and “Union proud!” signs.
Yet every election they have a lawn sign for the Conservative candidate…
🤔
For all of his “51st State” rhetoric and the Maple Magats who love it people seem to forget that Canada would not be a “state” under any circumstance. Canada would be a territory with no voting rights.
His Canada hatred isn’t puzzling when you realize his goal is to seize ALL of North America.
Trump’s rhetoric and Canada hatred is only escalating and it’s goddamn scary.
Canada needs to declare a national security emergency immediately and start placing troops at the border.
I fear that Trump’s next move will be sending US troops over our border by May. In fact, I’ll put money on that.
I think Venom is done for…
My son was trying to say “tyrannosaurus” but it came out sounding more like “tranosaurs”.
The image that put in my head made me say: “The way the US is going lately they’ll probably soon make tranosaurs illegal too.”
It’s bad joke, but sometimes you have to try to find humour in the bad things.
I’ve come around on this issue. I don’t think Canada should shut off the power we supply to the US. Slap a 25% export tax on it. Double it every month the tariffs remain. When everyone’s power bill suddenly doubles or triples you’ll see them wake up and take action.
I have personally ended at least 7 friendships dating back to high school since the convoy idiocy. Most of them I haven’t seen in person since 1993, so no great loss.
There is no room for toxicity in my life.
I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.
Honestly, I’d say cut off the power flowing to the US right at the kickoff of the Super Bowl next week.
But I’m also terribly afraid that would just lead to The Very Unstable Genius carpet bombing Toronto.
The President of the United States has just issued a declaration of war against the sovereign nation of Canada calling for out total and complete submission to his will.
Cool, cool. And totally normal.
What the actual fuck, America?!? Deal with this.
You know what? I think I’m done with social media. At least for a while.
I comment on the illegal tariffs being implemented by the United States and I get flooded with Trumpers and fascists in my replies.
I’m done. Y’all are just so tiring.
We need to cut off the power flow. Plunge the whole region into the dark. We are now at “F around and find out”.
Progressives with the eye point set to see monitors best at a regular working position. I can’t use them for any distance stuff. So, like I can’t drive with them.
They make a difference.
I have reached the age where I have progressives and “computer progressives” for working. Switching between the two is very disorienting.
My 5 year old son has been running around the house naked this morning yelling “PENIS SUPERHERO!!!!”.
And I’d just like to say, it’s nice to hear my old high school nickname again.
My 5 year old son: “If I ever see an abandoned baby on the side of the road I’ll nurse it back to health and adopt it!”
What roads are you on, kid?!?
I have the data and continually scrape it (yeah, yeah huge nerd) so I created a bot account that post the current playing track on 5 modern rock radio stations in Canada. bsky.app/profile/mode...
My wife just noted that her astrological sign is an Earth sign, our son’s is an Air sign, and mine is a Fire sign.
Collectively our family is “Earth, Wind, and Fire”.
The other night I watched an episode of “Hockey: A People’s History” about hockey from 1900-1930.
Now, watching this game has me wondering the reaction if we could teleport someone from 1925 to watch a 2025 hockey game. What would their reaction be?
(Aside from “Holy shit! I time travelled!!!)
Cheers, beers, and Leaf jeers. #GoSensGo
I think I may be obsessed with making apple chips on our new food dehydrator.
Where did you get that? LCBO? That sounds good.
Yeah, I’m huge nerd. I write code for a living. I can’t help it. If you ever want to know what I’m listening to I’ve now redirected it to @webhamster-tunes.bsky.social.
I moved my experiment with the Spotify and BlueSky API’s to a new BlueSky account.
If you want to know what I’m listening to you can now follow @webhamster-tunes.bsky.social. It’ll only post when I’m actively listening to Spotify.
Yes, I’m a huge nerd. I write code for a living.
