New today from the Calgary Municipal Land Corporation, renderings of what Olympic Plaza is supposed to look like after the redevelopment. Via FB: www.facebook.com/CalgaryMLC/p... Read more and see all the renderings: bit.ly/4chIils #Calgary #yyc #downtownCalgary #yyccc

Icefields Parkway, Jasper

Someone please tell me if the Fate Heavens Feel movies get any better after the first one! I don't know if I can take two more 2 hour movies paced and written like the first one.

Greatest goal scorer of all time, folks. Classic goal to set the record too.

France, the country of true justice

Snow cat!

Ubisoft feeling confident over on Twitter… (Musk notoriously reacted to AC Shadows’ reveal and its Black samurai by saying the game was proof that “DEI kills art”)

Let's be clear, Danielle Smith is more than happy to placate Trump during the worst economic crisis facing our country than she is willing to work with Canadians. It's never country before politics for her.

the senators recoil in horror as a wounded Caesar rises from the floor and a second health bar appears on the screen

It boggles the mind how Premier Smith can take a harder line stance against the prime minister of her own country than the president of an enemy nation. If she's unsure who is the bigger threat, her advisors have failed all Albertans miserably.

Remember what I said about how Twitter is useless for self-promotion even if you have a big following there? There's data showing BlueSky, even with smaller user numbers, generates way more referrals than Twitter purely because it doesn't suppress links. Stop saying you need Twitter for promotion.

If you are a foreigner, you probably should not visit the U.S., but if you absolutely have to, you should “enter” at a pre-clearance site (like Ireland or Canada) so that you’re denied entry in a place where the U.S. government won’t detain you or confiscate your property.

"To put things into perspective: I had a Canadian passport, lawyers, resources, media attention, friends, family and even politicians advocating for me. Yet, I was still detained for nearly two weeks. Imagine what this system is like for every other person in there."

Masnick's point about this guy just riffing darkly is correct, but the clipped bit is also a funny reflection of how venues that depend on wingnut welfare largesse are effectively outside best practices. A big following on Twitter is worth zero in traffic, due to their policies. Not the case here.

"I want to switch over to Bluesky, but I just don't get the kind of engagement I get on Twitter." Wow, you mean your strategy of following 18 people here and showing up once every three weeks to complain about how quiet it is hasn't paid off? Surprising!

Driving through Kananaskis

Again, too many Americans still don’t realize how offensive, dangerous, & deadly serious this is to Canadians, & we absolutely would not tolerate being told to calm down if other countries’ leaders were talking about annexing our territory or ending our sovereignty 🇨🇦 bsky.app/profile/mcop...

Town of Banff at blue hour

Wrote about the strange events that made the U.S. a super power in women’s sports—and why that could all too easily be undone by this administration. Gift link so everyone can read it:

Suikoden, perhaps best summed up as “Pokémon meets Game of Thrones,” is one of my favorite video game series. So it’s been a pleasure to play through the new remaster of Suikoden 1+2, which comes out tomorrow. The bugs are fixed, the entire script is reworked, and it looks gorgeous. Highly recommend
