Well, this is my new favorite War Pigs cover. Just *listen* to these guys go.

This is an absolutely terrible "explanation." No discussion about how we elect seats, or how the "popular vote" that national polls mimic is a logical fallacy because we have 348 separate elections simultaneously and not one event that gets distributed.

Macron shook one hand.

Chris Hayes, welcome to The War on Cars.

This is a good shift, but he should go much further and have the government build its own data centres to serve its needs.

Let’s goooooo @brucefanjoy.bsky.social ! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

XKCD is savage today

My work setup clearly wants me thinking about limestone on a greyish Canadian Shield April morning

When the #Montreal Canadiens are in the playoffs, buses here flash a sign that says "GO HABS GO." It's a nice tradition. But the STM, bowing to dictates of the Office de la langue française, has changed it to "ALLEZ! CANADIENS ALLEZ!" Something no one ever says— 'cos it doesn't work as a chant.

Being terrified was starting to give way to being really angry.

I’m once again (maybe for the fourth time?) at the salt water pool in Gideon the Ninth, and all the cards being laid on the table, and “You are my only friend. I am undone without you,” and what a fucking beautiful book.

Guys why have I never noticed before that the Bloc Quebecois logo looks like "I fart in your general direction"???

Go @brucefanjoy.bsky.social go!!! Give'er!

LOL Ottawa isn't real. . . Had a meeting today with someone I'm profiling for my department's employee magazine. She's running the Accessibility Office. I mention I know someone with an emotional regulation service dog in my kickboxing class. She's like - "Service dog? Kickboxer? I know her!"

This is a live action Far Side cartoon

that's gonna be a HELL YEAH from me dawg www.thestar.com/news/gta/cou...

Finally just went ahead and ordered some long pepper from a spice merchant and I'm making a dish based on it for dinner tonight, I'm stoked

@mayormarksutcliffe.bsky.social has been asking for more money from the feds. My question: why should the feds (or province) send more money our way if it might get misused in a similar way? A bank would not loan a company that can't manage their books. Why should the feds? 🤔

What. WHAT.

You may not have known you needed a German folk metal band doing Kpop in your life, but you kinda did, admit it

@steveboots.bsky.social, welcome to @thewaroncars.bsky.social :-D

I'd be all for this, it's easily one of the ugliest buildings in the city

it started off with a twoot, how did it end up like thoot

HA, I recognize that person in that splash photo! (also, if you're in Ottawa, and you want to learn some super fun martial arts - with nifty weapons - you could do WAY worse than Siling Labuyo Arnis, this crew rocks)
