It's that time of year when I tend to be lenient about students handing in late assignments. I'm such a softy at heart.

History made

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

Just read this sentence. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/17/o...

It's honestly fascinating to watch the rightwing response to Pope Leo XIV. Normally, this guy would be greeted with enthusiasm. He's solid conservative who grew up in the Midwest. The first American pope. But he follows Christ's teachings on migrants and refugees. So, they're irate. Fascinating.

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

Trump becomes the first American president to lose a Canadian election

I have the best doctor in the world. How can I say that? Today he advised me to eat steak three times per day to put on some weight. Mmmmmm... steak...

I just learned that my favourite Mexican restaurant created a button on their P.O.S. decidated to my favourite hack: adding beef from the carne asada to a tostado salad. It's almost like being famous!

"Tocqueville believed, as did the American Founders, that religion would be the source of republican virtues. What they didn’t anticipate was that religion might become a source of republican vices." - Peter Wehner

I've been screaming it for years: the right in Canada is headed down an American-style path on almost every issue because the right-wing media plays that tune, and the right-wing pretend media plays that tune. It's headed in one direction, and we have never had a clearer view of where that leads.

If this looks old it's because it's been up there a while.

Live at 3 pm Central, 10 pm CEST @SpudEternal (@professorflynn.bsky.social) and I will be talking to @CraigSw60447870 about what he really believes and why. Set your reminder! www.youtube.com/live...

Time to convene the holy coven and get the magic fire lit to see what colour the smoke is in the “Papal Reveal Party.”

If you know, you know.

I’m doing my best!

Is every postgame interview going to be an "all glory to God" fest? It's always fun to see God prop up a football team but do nothing about child molestation by "holy" men.

just sayin...

Their shamelessness knows no bounds.

Every review of AI is like: This isn’t very useful and it makes it harder to do simple tasks than if I just did it myself. Riddled with errors. Can’t see anyone using this. I feel stupider having tried this. That said I believe it will soon make human cognition redundant and eradicate us all.

Motherfucker.

It’s weird how every god just happens to have the same opinions as the people who worship them. #WeirdFaith #GodsOpinion #WorshipPerspective #DivineBias #ReligiousPhilosophy #SpiritualIrony #BeliefSystem #TheologyTalk #FaithAndCulture #QuestioningBeliefs

Which better sums up Trump's defeat after his lame attempts at tariffs on Canada and Mexico: Vietnam or the War of 1812?

Yep... Who would know that 2025 would be a nazi year. Sweet.

Testify!

Fuck that guy.

 and yet, at the moment he’s golfing

The two hurricanes that hit Tampa Bay this year caused an estimated $50 billion in damages. 100% of Samaritan's Purse expenditures (which are around $500 million a year) are ministry related. Are you gonna pray the power lines to go back up?

I dislike the music of Depeche Mode, but this Gordon Lightfoot cover is pretty darn good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAUm...

Look, I think that all faith-based claims are ridiculous. But that doesn't mean that tools like Mike Johnson can't be called out for their hypocrisy--and their apparent ignorance of the religion they purport to subscribe to.

"Ambushed" by a plea for mercy is a real language choice.

Trump is literally purging the federal government of Black people and women. So the people who told us he wasn’t a racist or misogynist were full of shit.

This is perfect explanation

The world's most dangerous moron?

Elon Musk gave two Nazi salutes during his Trump inauguration speech. Neo-Nazis across the globe are already celebrating "WE ARE FUCKING BACK" www.wired.com/story/neo-na...

That’s like old-timey generational hexing but from a government.

Trump pardoned Daniel Rodriguez, the man who tased Metro Police Officer, Michael Fanone. After the attack, Rodriguez bragged on Telegram that he got away with, "so much fucking shit" after he “tazzed the fuck out of the blue.” THIS is who Trump serves & protects, NOT the 🇺🇸 people. #Jan6Pardons

There sure is a lot of praying going on at this inauguration.
