Age yourself with a movie you saw in theatres.

If you see this and like Star Trek drop an image from the first Star Trek episode you remember.

I love how Germany has a political party called, simply, the Left.

I’m late to the CBC discourse but if they’ve actually invited Kevin O’Leary to stump for annexation, then that doesn’t bode well for a national current affairs program.

Favourite sports movie.

Finally watching Reacher for the first time and all I can think is “Blast Thickneck! Big McLargeHuge! Eat Punchbeef!”

Movie you’ve watched more than 6 times, gifs only.

I wanna watch Conclave again.

Finally, the police are looking into reports of drug dealing at Cannabis NB.

I could guess the ending pretty early on but Conclave is a great watch.

So I guess an early contender for the Oxford Dictionary’s 2025 word of the year is “slop.”

I know this will likely trigger a ground invasion but Canada really needed that win tonight.

me: it’s just a hockey game also me:

RIP me. Cause of death: this game

Huh. I thought Chantal Kreviazuk just mixed up the words by accident. Turns out it was an intentional nod to the threat of annexation. Good for her.

I don’t think there’s been a Canada-Russia game this intense since 1972.

Thrift store find of the week.

The Algorithm: I see you have been watching a lot of Star Trek lately. Can I interest you in this random episode of Enterprise? Me: The only good thing to come out of the Federation's synth ban in 2385 is that abominations such as you will no longer be permitted to ask me such questions

I’d be happy to see this for real but somehow these announcements always remind me of that Dr. Manhattan meme.

ah yes. every canadian’s status bars right now.

Weather and the Delta crash have conspired to make me miss the annual conference. But honestly travelling during this most February of Februaries was something I was kind of dreading.

Post a female character that you love

RIP Rick Buckler of The Jam, one of my favourite bands of that era.
