Find yourself someone who loves you as much as Butch Ware loves saying stupid shit that makes him sound like a fed.

bro, wut? I need people to understand that this is just identitarian liberal speak dressed up as radical theory. Any actual Marxist will tell you this kind of rhetoric is detrimental to actual praxis... Historical materialism 101:

Decembur.

Seems rather odd that this Globe and Mail article on Yves Engler never uses “allegedly” when describing the charges he’s currently facing. They only use it for the old, withdrawn case. Mainstream media adopting the police narrative and implying context for guilt. Pathetic.

Harold Carmichael of the Sudbury Star will write the worst, most degrading article you’ll ever read about someone who’s unhoused or struggling with drug use, but somehow always finds room to do apologia for a fraudster, contractor scam artist...

I keep stumbling on boomer Facebook posts where people are honouring their ‘WWII veteran’ ancestor, and then you read the story and it turns out they actually joined the German army and fought for the Nazis… and whatdoyaknow eventually ended up living comfortably in Canada...

Too much snow tonight so we missed the Holiday train. Maybe next year.

Said it before, I'll say it again. Hitching hopes for material change by way of politics to the NDP at this point is like cheering for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Stop. Have some self respect. There are better more productive things you could be doing with your time and energy. No Democracy Party.

The NDP keeps proving it’s a fake progressive party. Instead of engaging with criticism of its pro-establishment politics, insiders like Shannon Devine smear activists with vague baseless accusations. The NDP will always slander anti-imperialist dissent rather than engage in actual debate.

Totally normal weather this winter in Northern Ontario.

MLS crowd in San Diego being asked to sing the anthem and they're just like... Nah. We'd rather just blast fireworks.

Sports doing these “Stand Up to Cancer” nights is infuriating to me because it turns a structural crisis into a sentimental ritual of consumption. Cancer becomes “real” only through personal stories, not through any kind of collective action that changes material conditions...

You know it's bad when even the heartless shills are up in arms.

This whole time I thought Jack White was British.

Jack White playing the shittiest sounding guitar for seven nation army every single time I see him play it live is so clutch.

In this week's episode, Alex and Sam dive into a week where sports felt like a simulation glitch: Blue Jays heartbreak, Andy Pages’ unreal catch, and a Grey Cup falling on the 140th anniversary of Louis Riel’s execution. Narrative, chance, and myth all collide. youtu.be/gGWWUBK8Onk

WE DID IT FAM!!!

NEW EPISODE!!!!

Berube like hey go out there and get beat up and make this game even worse. Good call coach.

The funniest thing ever is that the Toronto Sceptres already won a championship before the Leafs, and they did it while playing out of the old Maple Leaf Gardens building.

You can tell the Leafs are in town cause the lower bowl of the Bell Center is half empty come the third period.

Someone ask Xhekaj how he feels about NATO.

Without a real sparkplug the Leafs are just flat. Even Marner, for all the ways he’s annoying, brings a level of chaos this team is completely missing. Can't miss you if you don't leave eh, Mitchy?

Fire Berube.

This Leafs team is just absolutely characterless without Matthews. It's so over. Canadiens century has just begun.

It's funny how Nick Suzuki is related to David Suzuki.

It's funny how Ron McLean has just become Don Cherry. Senile, out of touch and absolutely insufferable.

Anytime I have to go to Sudbury to go to the bank, or the post office, or Service Ontario, I run into someone from elementary or high school and they're like, 'oh you're back!' ...

Haiti qualifying for the World Cup on the anniversary of its final battle for independence is poetic. From defeating a slave empire in 1803 to returning to the world stage after 50 years, Haitians world wide are reminded that their history is resistance, pride, and brilliance.

The Riders entered the Grey Cup as -3.5 betting favorites. They’re now just the third betting favorite to win in ten years, and only the second to both win and cover the spread.

Saskawatchewan wins.

Machine Gun Kelly is horrendous. How many Canadian artists do we have? You could have a parade of them. Why have this garbage for the Grey Cup? Is this just meant to piss people off? Literally the only explanation.

I will say. At least they acknowledged it on the broadcast and didn't just say he was a hero without mentioning the canadian state executed him literally 140 years to do the day. He was executed in Regina. So by default he's going for the Al's in this one.

My american partner just unironically called it "Saskwatchewan"

Underdogs have won six of the last nine Grey Cups, demonstrating that the oldest championship game in professional football is where regular-season records often go to die.

140 YEARS TO THE DAY!!!

Grey Cup game day. Canadian football is statecraft.

THIS IS WHAT WE'VE TRAINED FOR PEOPLE!!!!

The new UFC two-division champion. Islam Makhachev.

20,000 in MSG chanting "ISLAM!" America has fallen.

Haven't had that big fight feel about a UFC main event in years. This is the least terrible event they've done in quite a while. Miracle.

lolz Islam walking out to Russian techno. Let's go.

We love you Weili. You did your best. 🫶

Trust Xi plan. Weili in control.

Beneil Dariush dedicates another fight to all the victims of Marxism, and then promptly gets knocked out by a French man.

Imperial Pub was the only piece of character left on that corner. It's completely wild to see how much Church/Dundas has changed in 10 years. Completely unrecognizable. Absolutely awful what has happened to this neighbourhood.

late night working on my sports/politics/culture website, hoping to have it launched by the end of the weekend. sparkedsports.ca, coming soon.

Evander Kane is a fed and also a complete bonehead.
