Co-owner, Canada I just take it one game at a time. CEO Session Games. Canonical knowledge of Dune, Star Trek, and Star Wars, Metroid, Mario, and Zelda. Equally adept with keyboard and chainsaw. Generally produce more than I consume.

It is funny to be in the middle of an energy and medicine revolution while the part of the tech industry that draws attention to itself is entirely devoted to scams and exploding rockets.

This is pretty amazing.

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

I’ve kept this telegram from my late father in my stocking for 64 years, and read it every Christmas. Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!

US license plates in BC: The “Not my President” bumper sticker is not some kind of hall pass. He IS your president. When you go back home, do something about it.

“A key to the pathology of the radical right it offers both a powerful sense of aristocratic elevation and a deep sense of wounded victimization…this combined sense of being better and being wronged is exceptionally attractive.” @mattpolprof.bsky.social www.liberalcurrents.com/the-far-righ...

liberalcurrents.comThe Far Right CanonThe radical right has its own canon of intellectuals—aristocratic, resentful, and a profound challenge to liberal philosophy.

Can we please stop burning an entire lake just to generate a stupid image of a Canada Goose in an RCMP dress uniform with "Elbows Up!" text? It's stupid, and Canada Geese don't have elbows.

Only now am I letting my relief at not having to say “Prime Minister Poilievre” wash over me. We have work to do still, and that begins with advocating for ProRep. We must avoid two-party polarization at all costs, in a country as diverse as ours.

Next time we have a referendum/discussion on electoral reform in Canada, can we *please* not fall for the line that “Pro Rep brings nazis.” We heard this BS from the Bill Tieleman side in BC’s 2018 vote. We’ve got a big Nazi now, and he was elected via First Past the Post. It’s great for that.

In 2008 I did a @jmcelroy.bsky.social double - had my old Boston Whaler in the city, and we went under one of the fast ferries when they were languishing at the foot of Lonsdale. Then, through 2nd Narrows to the McBarge, at that time moored near the oil refineries below SFU. #mcbarge
