The world needs some pop joy and we're here to supply it. m.youtube.com/watch?v=IhgB...

Man, it's been forever since I've been here. How y'all doing? (I'm also on Eh! with same handle these days for 🇨🇦 content)

Looking forward to our upcoming dates in June instead of our usual snowy April ❄️

In which @clareblackwood.bsky.social pretty accurately describes the security clearance issue, with a helpful diagram.

Finally figured out who Kash Patel reminds me of

If you're having a bad day, just remember that without security clearance, accidentally being invited to a group chat is the only way Poilievre is gonna learn Canada's national security secrets.

You don't say.... danieldrezner.substack.com/p/american-f...

The decision was for "the safety of attendees, exhibitors, and staff."

The mirror shows you what you truly desire and it showed me Elon Musk in financial ruin, ugly-crying inside a Cybertruck-shaped inferno. Also some waffle fries.

Haven't been running hardly at all in March and was feeling some existential malaise this morning. A slow 8k with some sun and a couple of deer along the way certainly helped. #seenonmyrun #lunchrun

Not to blame Biden for everything, but there was a moment when Elon was doing freelance diplomacy by denying Ukraine access to Starlink where the administration and the national security state had the opportunity to break him, and they chose not to do so.

Star Collector mug. Guitar stir-stick. Good afternoon.

Saw two Cybertrucks in Vancouver today and @chrystia-freeland.bsky.social’s proposed 100% tariff on Teslas is nowhere near high enough.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you

Last weeks Ice Cream Man show is now archived, play loud and please share. Hey, I just listened to "Ice Cream Man #589" of the "Ice Cream Man Power Pop and More!" podcast on PodOmatic. Check it out: www.podomatic.com/podcasts/ice...

As best you can, ignore him.

After inflation, house prices in Edmonton are approaching 20 years with no growth. The population of Edmonton doubled in this time.

Happy National DJ Day! Thanks to all the indie DJ's getting the music out there xx

“With literally minutes left in his presidency, Joe Biden on Monday granted clemency to Leonard Peltier, the ailing Native American rights activist whom the U.S. government put in prison nearly 50 years ago after a trial riddled with misconduct and lies.” www.huffpost.com/entry/joe-bi...

Have you met my "bit on the side"?

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

@brianbeutler.bsky.social offers useful ideas on how we should be talking and thinking about "the stunted but criminally wealthy people who are about to take over the country." substack.com/home/post/p-...

Black Viiolet is the alter ego of Nicole Laurenne of The Darts. She takes the stage January 31st at LanaLou’s with an intimate show celebrating her debut album “After You”. Special guests Cass King & The Cassettes, and The Judys tickets- bit.ly/4fZW90D 📸 Gordon E McCaw #yvrmusic #releaseparty

Nice to chat with SW Lauden about my Jupiter Motel project! rememberthelightning.substack.com/p/interview-...

The real lesson of Zuckerberg and Musk is that some people are just born with loser stink on them that no amount of wealth or power will ever scrub off

listen, musical taste is subjective and the entire premise of 'best of' record lists is inherently flawed, and also, this list makes me insane and i want to sue everyone involved in making this www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

New shoes made me speedier by 3 seconds per km today 😁🏃‍♂️ New Balance 1080v13 are cushy indeed! ##runchat

James Woods fleeing the wildfires while Steve Guttenberg helps fight the blaze is just so *chef's kiss*

Looks like a scene from a William Gibson @greatdismal.bsky.social novel. That juxtaposition. 💔

Yeah, I know they're white and it's rainy and muddy and winter but they were a great price. 😁🏃‍♂️ #newkicks

Navigating the Nonsense and Propaganda of Clownish Authoritarianism   Ignoring what Trump says won’t work. Constant outrage is not a viable strategy either. We must find a more productive way to engage Trump’s dangerous outlandishness.   New piece:

“He can’t do that it’s illegal” is the past. The corruption is going to be staggering and in your face in an attempt to keep people from fighting back. They are going to flood the zone with illegality and brazen corruption so people don’t know what to focus on. Trump is above all repercussions.

Today's lunch 10k felt slower but was within a second per km of what I've been averaging. Perception is everything. #runchat 🏃‍♂️

We missed at least 3 weeks of recycling pickups due to where the holidays fell, and I think I was almost as excited as Xmas day to finally have it all picked up today! 😁

I cannot repeat this enough, Facebook has been censoring ALL OF CANADIAN NEWS on its platforms for the past 18 months

Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke is now amplifying residential school denialism. It’s just the latest example of his embrace of extreme right-wing conspiracies and how he’s trying to use his position to reshape Canadian politics.

So Justin Trudeau has finally entered his "Charlie Angus phase" in standing up to the predator from Mar-a-Lago. The fact is, Justin wears a suit way better than me. But I opened for the Dead Kennedy's and the Violent Femmes. If he wants lessons in fighting Trump, I'll take him under my wing.

Neil Young is like, what if a guy’s annoying voice were so beautiful it stopped your heart

Go back and listen to this pod -- tons of stuff on how good it is for children, physically and mentally, to be able to navigate the towns & cities they live in on their own. Modern suburban children are bred in veal pens to be helpless & scared.

spent this afternoon reading some early US history (as one does) and was reminded of the important fact that these people were almost constantly drunk as hell

*Death comes for me but is once again fooled by my false moustache*

HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio. Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.
