Look, I didn’t study history, but my feeling is that cyclops were not in fact “historically accurate.”

Trump's audience in Mississippi gives him a standing ovation after he promises them he won't rename the Mississippi River

In the top fifty, for sure

This is the most zooshad I've been since someone tweeted that The Rizzler and Baby Gronk were two different people

If anything comes of this, it may well be the most impactful policy of Carney's entire tenure as PM. Few things could be more transformative for the constitutional order than a new law to supplant the Indian Act as the basis for the relationship between the Canadian government and the First Nations.

The future if Liz Truss hadn't been bested by a head of lettuce.

This will make Tariff Grandpa mad. Lol, lmao.

Oh dear, this is going to cause an explosion.

Damn, who could have seen this one coming?

Did someone say impose Shania Law in Texas?

A libertarian candidate for state senate posting through a live shootout with police is extremely on brand

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

It would be good if life my own country was not significantly impacted by the GOP vs Dem margins in small counties named after prominent Confederates but unfortunately it is

I have faith that Tariff Grandpa can surpass Brexit in the next two years.

This is the best post mortem on the Alberta referendum that I have seen 😂

Franklin D. Roosevelt: "The only thing we have to fear is, fear itself." John F. Kennedy: "Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country." Donald Trump: “I looked at one hell of a beautiful ass before: Nicki Minaj. That's hard to miss."

If the US elections go well, I may be chortling for months. Been lots of raw chortling content. Even the BC outcome was worth a chortle.

"bumpy" understated it a bit:

Posting-to-policy pipeline.

“Cataclysmic down-ballot slaughter”: is this good?

Oh noes. Is something happening?

American conservatives are constantly bemoaning the decline of aesthetic standards and calling for a return to tailored suits and classical Roman architecture, but are now forced to defend the Cheesecake Factory. A constant tension between the Brooks Brothers patrician and the Kid Rock populist.

The liberals are sensing Something Happening? The most Bluesky of moments.

CTVNews → On Friday, the Trump administration announced a major shift in the tariffs the United States applies on Canadian goods, removing several products off its targeted list and replacing them with new items.

turns out that voting is a very good way to kick right wing authoritarians out of power

I don’t keep up with intra-Scandinavian rivalries, but this looks like a big win for Norway. Slap a “I don’t want anything to do with Norway” slogan on top of this guy’s mug, and boom, you just doubled Canadian tourist numbers to Norway.
