Writers, producers, performers, announcers, musicians, directors... American variety television was largely driven by the expertise of former CBC television people. The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour employed 12 Canadian staff members. The Sonny and Cher Show employed 16. Hee Haw employed 6.

Steve-Steve let me say this. The president has been very clear. This was never a war and in many ways we've been at war for a long time if you think about it. And we don't need anyone's help because we won. And if our allies don't help us immediately we will destroy them. But we're looking at it

Went to Costco last night, like my 3rd time ever. Waited around for a rotisserie chicken. Like 4 of us are waiting, and the dude brings out the last 4 chickens. Old lady next to me like leaps to the counter, grabs 3, and runs off. WTF?

I woke up thinking you’d all become doctrinaire idiots endlessly accusing each other of petty offences. Then I realized I’d had it set on Discover (the raw Bsky feed) rather than Following. This platform is all about who you follow. Select judiciously and it’s a congenial, knowledgeable community
