Holy Moly! #TEW is *way* more difficult than #EWR. 🎮 I somehow managed to take an 'International' company and drive it down to 'Cult' *within a month*?! F*ck off game. It feels like the game sets you up to fail: weighing the negative stats more heavily? Or I just cannot figure out the formula. 😭🤬

If a tree falls in the woods, and no one's around... Does it make a noise? If you post on social media, and no one engages.... Did you ever even really post?

Picard sanity tip: If there are four lights, say there are four lights.

Everytime i see new ads for the upcoming avatar movie, im thibking about this

Being so focused on my BP, I don't think that I've taken my ADHD diagnosis seriously enough. Reading this, I'm realising just how much ADHD affects me, and would explain why my flashbacks illicit such a visceral response. I need to do much more reading; especially about comorbidity of ADHD / BP.

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it. Everyone, give @skatunenetwork.bsky.social your money. They deserve it.

The highest calling of journalism isn’t to tell two sides of a story. The highest calling of journalism is to tell the truth. And acting like a stenographer is a betrayal of your audience.

In 1938, a New York Times reporter warned: “When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labeled ‘made in Germany’; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, ‘Americanism’.” 87 years later.....

If you’re disabled, housebound or living in poverty and unable to boycott the big retailers this weekend… it’s ok. Many of us save up for months waiting for a sale to get items we need to survive. When you’re sick & in legislated poverty, some boycotts are inaccessible. We need community care.

Did you know that Elf has a lot of Canadian connections? The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver became the North Pole, a haunted hospital in Coquitlam was used for interior sets and even the famous Buddy burp was Canadian! This is the story of Elf and Canada! 🧵1/10

S3 wasn't great but had me looking forward to S4. Well... I still haven't watched S4, so this definitely makes me rethink bothering to rewatch/finish up. Is this the general consensus: nothing but diminishing returns over the seasons?

O’Brien, What would happen if someone energized a transporter console slider too slowly? Worf

Wow. That's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I'm guessing that I censor 'sh!t' more than 'f*ck' due to using "sh!t" pretty frequently, and mostly only using "fuck" sparingly. 🤷 I think that this one somehow slipped through the cracks, however. 😅🤣

I started off trying not to curse, or, at least, censor myself. Somewhere along the way, that changed.... 😅🤣 So, I gots to know, @profanity.accountant ... how bad did I get?

I got sick of it, and tried a 2002 scenario... SAME PROBLEM! 🙄🤣 So, I just downloaded the last available real world scenario - 2015. What a difference! Only 3 fails: 2 for steroids ("Legends"), 1 for soft drugs - which I don't care about, but "Stop getting busted on the tests, dude!" 🤣 #TEW

The "immigrants using taxis and hotels" bullshit is driving me insane - everything about the press and political framing is an absolute lie. Asylum seekers are only staying in hotels and using taxis because we're apparently incapable of processing applications and providing nearby healthcare!

Rent: able to afford an apartment that doesn't flood during heavy rain? Food: higher quality, healthier choices Bills: no more credit card; savings account? Bonus: * able to give some to charity * order pizza without guilt * insurance, not have to sell my car * a dog... or a cat.. or one of each

This afternoon, I informed the Prime Minister of my decision to resign as Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Minister responsible for Official Languages, Minister of Nature and Parks Canada, as well as his Lieutenant in Quebec. You can find my full statement below.

With apologies to Gene Roddenberry

Data, I am sorry, but your email was too long. I did not finish reading it. Can you summarize? Worf

Can more news sites encourage this style of headline please?

“Why are your posts so political?” Because health is political Because the President of the most powerful country on earth has said disabled people should be “left to die” Because we’re living through a mass disabling event Because eugenics is back Because our lives matter

If you see this, I IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you're using without explanation.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao

Happy Thanksgiving

We are now further away from the theatrical release of Raiders of the Lost Ark (June 12, 1981) than it was from the year it takes place in (1936). We have reached the Indiana Jones event horizon.

Two obese bullies.

You just died. The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.

Today's #Muppet GIF of the Day is...

What @netflix.com (and most networks) need is a Brandon Tartikoff-type as "Head of Programming". Someone with the vision to take risks, stand up to the network when necessary & juggle what's best for all involved Without him: Cheers & DS9 cancelled after 1 season. There has to be one out there.

How long can @netflix.com continue with these 2-4 years between seasons release schedule? We get sick of waiting for new seasons, thus this less than tepid response. Between this, and us waiting to see if a show will get cancelled before watching (itself a paradox), how is this sustainable???

This is true. It is the best email I got this year.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

people always stereotype Canadians as being polite, and its not true at all. We are passive-agressive weirdos who live in isolated weird places and the sooner we make peace with that the better

You never really know what people are dealing with. I am reminding myself of this a lot lately.

Don't wait until New Years. You can fail to make major changes in your life any time.

One of my favourite flashbacks in #LOST is when Sun goes to see Jin's father. He's such a kind, kind man, who just loves Jin, no matter what. When Sun tracks him down, he is so gracious, and only cares about sparing Jin's honour/feelings. Small but powerful scene. Well written, SO well acted.

Due to anxiety etc, I don't like leaving the apartment. Obviously, though, everyone has to do laundry at some point. 😅 Now, I'm frikkin' beat. Even with my parents letting me use their machines so I don't have to be in a public laundromat, just going out into the world takes so much out of me. Ugh

Liberal MPs once claimed to support the tanker ban in Northern BC. Now they’re reversing 50 years of coastal protection and risking billions of dollars of economic activity—without consulting BC or First Nations. Why are BC Liberals betraying voters and risking our future?

The Heritage Minutes: Winnie The Pooh This Heritage Minute depicts how a bear named for Winnipeg by a Canadian soldier during the First World War inspired the famous character Winnie the Pooh.

Linda McMahon is the first name listed. Her wealth today comes entirely from TKO stock, which means WWE fans are helping fund the Trump Administration. That's why good people don't support that company.

I think if Canada wants to have a strong cultural identity we need to go back to doing what we're best at, making the weirdest fucking TV shows you've ever seen
