One of the more patently silly things about Canada is - every year we devote 9 straight hours of TV to live coverage of the NHL trade deadline with about 20 analysts in a single studio - not many actual trades happen at the trade deadline anymore - the coverage is largely comedy skits

A nondescript Midwest office meeting where one guy is about 10% weirder than everyone else is to Tim Robinson what bullfighting was to Hemingway

Last year was our 9-year (!) anniversary of hosting our weekly pub trivia night. It's been a highlight of every week for us. We've seen a lot of regulars and staff come and go, teams having babies, only 1 near fistfight, and I've only ever fucked up by accidentally saying the answer on the mic once

Kristi Noem has never been a fan of Nintendo ever since she couldn't get past this level in Duck Hunt

Local police in Italy say the suspect may be recongizable from his "distinctive shirt"

This is a profound continental divide. Canadians overwhelmingly view other Canadians, even those unlike them, as being good people. Americans, more than any other country, view their neighbours and fellow citizens as bad people. Anti-Americanism flourishes in the United States

(Harlequin Romance writer struggling for the name for the exotic businessman tycoon character) Ivan Profit?... Juan Stocks?... hold on I've got it:

Found this at the thrift shop and I absolutely need to hear what the hottest satirical quartet of 1965 have to say about the new flag, the FLQ and The Pill

Jesus. I thought from these headlines he used the slur f-word or something. He said "well, fuck" in the context of a long casual story about wine.

In this sleepy rural Kansas diner, the regulars don't care much for the mainstream media or "big government". All they want is simple: a hot coffee, a tall stack of pancakes, higher gas prices, and for their sons to die in an interminable proxy war to defend the state of Israel

Even by the low standards of American quagmires, this one seems especially half-assed. Like the whole operation was just a 3-slide Powerpoint deck that went 1. Rain hellfire on Tehran 2. [slide 2 tk - Pentagon?] 3. Let the bells of democracy ring out

Episode 2 of the Netflix F1 show just being a character study of Sauber's team principal (a sweet old British elf who believes in the power of friendship) and Alpine's team principal (a cartoonishly despicable Italian villain who dresses like an aging nightclub impresario)

I can't believe that the biggest cultural moment coming this year is a video game where you get to simulate what it's like to live in Florida

Last week's pea-soup fog over the city provided some insane drone photography shots of towers piercing up out of the clouds (via Instagram photographer Kotsy: www.instagram.com/itsonlykotsy/)

It means any monsters you've killed come back to life

Surprisingly affordable trip recommendation for anyone in Toronto who wants to get away, but is looking for a more budget-conscious "we don't need Japan we've got Japan at home" vibe: Vancouver in April

So the F-15 is the most successful combat aircraft in modern history. 104 air combat engagements with enemy aircraft. 104 victories. Zero losses. A perfect record. Only 6 F-15s have been lost to ground based fire in all history. 3 of those 6 were friendly fire under this Operation Epstein Fury.🤡

SUNDAY NIGHT TRIVIA: What is the connection between this images?

(Clocking in for my first day at work as air traffic controller in Turkmenistan) Alright, should be a pretty chill Sunday, let's see who we've got in the air

Brits have long held some sort of funhouse-mirror view of Canada - remember when Morissey & Paul McCartney launched boycotts of Canada over seal hunts, or Brit tabloid hysteria over MAID. Anyways I'm sure Vancouver isn't hurting over "oh no an 86-year-old can't do his 60-year-old jokes here"

The Tkachuks just narrowly missed out on this gig after it was learned that reading SNL cue cards requires being able to read

IMPORTANT: Sourdough bread loaf with duck fat chili oil, scallions and cheddar

In recent years, Bilbao has quietly built a cycling network shaped by lessons from the Netherlands: calmed where it can be, protected where it must be, and always comfortable and connected. The result? You can now pedal across the city on infrastructure made for everyone—not just the fit and brave.

Honestly probably only the 2nd most embarrassing Kalshi insider trading story this week: a few days ago, one of MrBeast's video editors was caught betting $4000 on MrBeast-related Kalshi bets like "what will MrBeast say in his next video", which is, bafflingly, a thing adults could gamble money on

"The Jetsons" is canonically set in the year 2062. That means we've only got 36 years left for baby-naming trends in America to change enough that you can name a blond kid Elroy.

it’s gritney bitch

Guys who reply to posts by pulling up the Gif keyboard, typing whatever topic is at hand, and just sending whatever stupid gif pops up first should receive a mild electric shock from their device. Voltage can increase for each additional gif sent.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to bomb this elementary school full of kids because he thinks it makes him look cool. also his scheming viziers will be betting money on it for fun. good luck soldier

A sweeper on Team Quebec snapped his broom in half while sweeping at the Brier, and the skip's response was extremely Québecois

I wonder if a hard-line successor will assume power and further destabilize the region just like every other time this has happened

People have asked "why does Mike White need to do Survivor when he's got White Lotus" money and to that I ask you this: where is a better place on earth to get ideas and inspiration for the concept "what if a tropical paradise was full of vindictive freaks"

this AI slop has 1,200 reposts and nearly 5,000 likes. what the fuck are we doing out here.

No no no, you're not understanding: if WE don't start blasting missiles into a foreign country, there could be a possibility that they develop the capacity to have the opportunity to build a likelihood of a potential for THEM being able to blast missiles into foreign countries

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

Omg. I didn’t see everything happening in this pic until I read the alt text. It’s incredible.

1. Here's a little thread on one of Canada's greatest athletes who was largely forgotten by most of his home country: the three-sport phenom "Fabulous" Fred Thomas.

"I am the coolest vice president" motherfucker if I put you side-by-side with Dan Quayle, Al Gore and Mike Pence, three guys who are like the living embodiment of a Pictionary prompt for "draw a guy who is not cool", all three of them would like the goddamned FONZ standing next to you

Whoever wrote "J'accuse Hughes" on this rules

You simply shouldn't be allowed to make a fully-inflated regulation NBA basketball look like a medium-sized canteloupe in your hands

They're out here giving out the Medal Of Honor for being the most-injured guy in the illegal war crime

the world's wealthy elite are too busy Sinatramaxing (caring what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars, spending 5 minutes talking about how you did things your way) when they should be DeanMartinmaxing (drinking so much wine you think the moon is a pizza)

This story of a father being starved in a moldy cell because he had 1 Xanax tablet in the back seat of his car when he was 17 is, obviously, unconscionable. I think it's ALSO worth noting there are thousands of cases just like him whose stories aren't being told because they aren't white Canadians

In the MLB of 2026, signing any free agent for $3M (let alone a first-ballot hall of famer) is like hiring an unpaid summer intern who'll work for experience and free coffee. It's what managers make. Even if Scherzer doesn't pitch but just hangs out as a pitching mentor that's money well spent.
