Ah gotcha. Didn't even need the second sentence, the name "Patriot Front" just screams dumbass white nationalist militia!

Yeah even a quick peek they'll count as a viewer when they brag later, so let's all just agree to catch the highlights on Colbert on Monday. 😂

Yes my wife and I had a lovely evening just wandering around Harbourfront last night. Lots going on. We had four hours to kill while my son and his friend were the Kendrick Lamar concert, and we killed those four hours easily.

I think the parade was a scheduled to start at 6:30, so you'll probably start to see something soon. Washington post has a live stream. I'm not giving it any clicks.

Nope, not going to give this the clicks. The huge #NoKings protests are far more impressive.

We don't hope to avoid another Charlevoix style eruption. He's a baby, let him act like a baby. That's his choice. The first one only made himself look bad, and he'll probably do it again, and we want to see it.

Note, I have no doubt that US tourism to Canada is down, but this article does a deep disservice to the reader by not going into how this all started.

Here's a video of the horsies.

Lol, gotta aim higher. My expectations for this are a few notches below my hopes! Trump's either going to show up for the G7 with all egos blazing from his birthday parade, or in a rage at the protests stealing the limelight. Either way he is not going to like being among peers rather than toadies.

I confess as a person who was born in the mid-70s I've known for ten years that I need to get an MMR booster. I got a Whooping cough booster in 2016 and was told to come back in a few weeks for MMR, and then I just didn't. Got lazy. Now I can be lazy anymore.

That's amazing, but also the opposite of a real-life batman! Bruce Wayne could significantly reduce crime in Gotham City by spending his money on this kind of thing instead of high tech bat costumes and personal paramilitary hardware! But he wants to beat up the mentally ill, not help them.

Trump is gong to spend the last amount of time time possible in Canada for the G7. He doesn't like being in the company of equals, except one at a time in an environment he controls. Just like Charlevoix in 2018, he'll fly in, get annoyed that he's not the boss, then leave.

Hey, just cause it's SciFi doesn't mean it's not relevant. SciFi has a long history of holding up a critical mirror to our own society.

"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state. The other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." -Commander Adama, Battlestar Galactica

The people who were against mask mandates and social distancing would have been all for it if Trump had asked them to do it.

I asked if the chicken sandwich was white meat or dark meat, and after some confusion the girl said "Well it all comes from the same chicken" and for all these years I just assumed she was a little thick. But now after seeing that on Threads I'm wondering if maybe I was just talking Canadian.

It got me thinking about 35 years ago when I visited Ireland as a teenager, and I went into a Supermacs in Galway. Supermacs was sort of almost but not quite a McDonalds-esque fast food joint.

Ok but hear me out... Maybe we can convince the antivaxxers to get the shot if they think they can undo it by buying these pills. Get all the benefits of immunity and then take some cumin pills to dissolve the 5G nanobots.

With any luck Trump will rush one of them and we'll finally get the live action Peter Griffin Chicken Fight that we all deserve

The fact that it says Twitter is a giveaway. That's from his 2001 suspension.

Hmm I'd rather have the raisins than the wine. They help to lower LDL cholesterol, so I mix em into cereal and yogurt to help stave off my next heart attack!

My favourite part is the dig against Trump where the Business Ukraine journal is quoted as tweeting "It turns out Ukraine does have some cards after all. Today Zelensky played the King of Drones."
