The struggle of trying to get a coffee with 2 cream and 2 sugars at McDonalds is real And no, ordering the Canadian standard of a double double just gets you 2 milk and no sugar 95% of the time

People who get excited for parades: -fascists -5 year olds

So who gets custody of Pollievre now?

Are Conservatives using the Pete Hornberger method from 30 Rock, in the hope that a month of Andrew Scheer will make PP look almost human and semi-capable?

Hearing a wild tale about horrible, villainous looking men in downtown Ottawa… is the Bouncy Kastle Konvoy back?

So after all the rhetoric of MAGA calling for the invasion of Canada, it looks like our greatest weapon against them, is RFK jr

Something I’d love to see “fixed” on Bluesky is the ‘repeating quotes’. If you have multiple people reposting the same tweet(?), then you have to scroll through basically the same post dozens of times. Im not sure what the solution is, but I can see a popular post about 30x in a row some days

Poilievre vows to stay on as party leader for reasons of being otherwise unemployable #CanadaVotes #cdnpoli

I was hoping for a majority win so that we could finally say that Canada is united in rejecting Trump style politics, but it looks like we still have to keep up the fight. Still, it was good to wake up and know that we’re in safe hands for a while

Twitter is really pushing the Conservative paid trolls this week. Money well spent on an echo chamber of bots and fanatics

The announcements from Star Wars Celebration really have an air of “We’re not going to piss off the man babies anymore…”

So I have unsubscribed from LinkedIn Job Alerts 3 times now and I still continue to get spammed with emails that bear no relevance to my field whatsoever. Now resorting to blocking them

I won’t breathe a sigh of relief until this election is over and Carney is elected

Finally got around to unsubscribing from LinkedIn Job Alerts. I’m going to miss that daily assumption that my years of directing TV make me an ideal candidate for a garden manager

“Boots, not Suits” sounds like a strip club in New Brunswick

I’m less concerned about the Tariffs, and more concerned about how Loblaws is going to exploit this.

On every series I’ve directed, I’ve had to fight the producers for my crew. They never learn that: - people get sick - people take vacations - people take new jobs and need to be replaced. I say this for no reason as I watch Elon decimate organizations without knowing anything about them.

Dan Bongino is Option 14 in every Fallout premade character selection menu

What’s the combined IQ of Twitter at the moment? 38?

Elon Musk is the equivalent of a Bond villain in a Muppet spoof of Bond movies.

We need new, rousing patriotic songs that are the the equivalent of “Hitler has only got One Ball”. Something something Trump has a mushroom dick…

Had to make a bunch of phone calls lately and I have to know…. What planet has adopted phone etiquette where you just “answer” the call but you don’t say anything?? I’ve called at least 3 people today who just wait in silence as if this was their first time interacting with a phone.

Someone needs to make some fake tourism ads for fictional countries and play them on Fox just to distract Trump from further damaging relations with real countries.

That didn’t take long. Greedy Galen is already jacking up the prices

Alright Canadian businesses… now is not the time to get greedy. We’re looking at you, Galen. Oh, and Food Professor? None of your nonsense either!

If the US manages to survive the reign of Trump, and recover to a place where decent, good people are in charge again, they need to take a hard look at updating the Constitution. It was written during a time when people still valued honor, and that doesn’t hold water anymore.

As a nation, we need to stop kowtowing to uneducated, selfish morons who now believe/know they can get anything they want by throwing tantrums. This includes Trump, the Bouncy Kastle Konvoy, Joe Rogan and the rest of the knuckle dragging ilk who couldn’t pass grade 6 science and history.

If Pollievre were a restaurant, it would be called “Not McDonalds”, and there’d be nothing on the menu. And if you asked what it served, you’d just get the response “we’re not McDonalds”, over and over.

We all know that no matter what comes out in the foreign interference report, PP’s supporters will cry fake news.

Watching Ai investors crumble and lose billions today is like a second Christmas

Herr Elmo is already having his playdates with Chief Cheeto limited by the White House Chief of Staff. It’s looking like I may have called this correctly

You just know that Pollievre is going to pull this same shit with the Bouncy Kastle Konvoy if he gets elected in Canada

It’s amazing how the same group that didn’t recognize a single artistic or historical reference in the Paris Olympic opening ceremonies, are now all experts on Roman salutes.

So can honestly say, I don’t believe the assassin attempt was real, nor do I believe Elon didn’t tamper with the election. I also believe that Meta struck a deal with Trump to buy Tik Tok and used the 12 hours of downtime to migrate it to their servers.

So do you think he’ll build a wall this time?

"You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you're going to go through life thinking that girls don't like you because you're a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won't be true. It'll be because you're an asshole."

In 20ish days, the report on foreign interference in Canadian elections will be made public. I wonder what tactics PP will begin to employ over the next 2 weeks to fool his followers into chanting “fake news”.
