Well. The thing is: Brad bradbrad suck sucksucks.

Fisher King is live. I'll expect you all to down tools for the afternoon and head to the Granite.

Well, we should probably check whatever video Vladdy's got before making claims like that.

Narrator: He might just be able to do it if he can bring flash cards.

By all accounts, Kim Jong Un a real bad guy to be around, but he was probably looking forward to GTA VI, so I do feel a little sorry for him despite the whole juche and dictatorship and whatnot.

I'm at the masquerade ball! I'm at the overthrow of the junta! I'm at the combination overthrow of the masquerade junta!

I really like Jonny's Craft Beer Channel, but I think posting the two videos asking why Beer isn't taken as seriously as Wine and then the one about how Beer people really like trains back to back may have somewhat undercut the first video.

I have updated the Ontario Brewery Map. I have made some concessions to the complicated ownership structures and ineffable branding choices, mostly by saying eff it. saintjohnswort.ca/ontario-brew...

This week's beery news came from @knutalbert.bsky.social @beerfoodtravel.bsky.social @saintsgambit.bsky.social @tandleman.bsky.social @davidjesudason.bsky.social @katiematherkm.bsky.social @boakandbailey.bsky.social @seanislegend.com @atjbeer.bsky.social @willhawkes.bsky.social and many more!

Things going great!

Am updating the Ontario Breweries Spreadsheet. It is a very bad sign that they are slipping through the cracks. I'm as in-touch as I have been, but people don't care enough to report things anymore or just aren't noticing them. Grim.

I still haven't seen The Mandalorian and Grogu. I think my interest in it died when they had Amy Sedaris' mechanic character say, "That's the worst name ever."

I think a good name for an exclusive and very expensive version of coloured pencil crayons would be "Laurentian Elite."

You know, you could buy a Canadian owned beer from the store and, at the same time, stop worrying about whether you're making the right choice both in terms of quality and for your country: saintjohnswort.ca/in-praise-of...

Hey @brianstack153.bsky.social, I'm watching a compilation and I have to ask about the Men Without Hats Conversation Channel. I'm assuming someone had an FM channel on in the office and that ran in the background for four days before it got pitched?

It is October. I am going to need it to stop feeling like 28 degrees celsius out there. Everything is sticky and this is bullshit.

'Doomed brand badly misunderstands its appeal, throws away money.'

Max. The WARRIOR MAX.

No, I am pretty sure we're paying Vladdy to CONTINUE to be good, and not for what he has already done.

I do wonder whether the "brad" in Brad Bradbrad is short for "Bradbrad." Bradbrad Bradbrad will never be mayor.

Tonight's late great movie is, appropriately, The Man With Two Brains, featuring Steve Martin bullying a girl scout.

Ed Sheeran really is a gormless wazzock.

I held a baby bird today, moving it off the sidewalk. Existence is so easy. You're everything all at once. A leaf falls and you feel sad for it because it's you. You're the ripples in the lake and your annoying co-worker. You're everything always. It's not ever more complicated than that.

Me the moment I found out Canada could be an associate member of the EU.

Kenneth Branagh on Hot Ones. And in Tonight's Main Event, Laurence Olivier and Brian Blessed take on the Acolyte Protection Agency.

Periodic fit of housecleaning has led to, "What if I just threw out everything that sucks?" Oh my yes.

Goddamn, man. Old school rap guys are always right.

Beauregard the Janitor saves the day once again.

I was thinking about hunting 51% of the world's ducks. You know. Murder most fowl.

The Houthis are makin' Ted Lawrence look like a slowpoke.

Came up with one while I was in the token booth. Use it as you will: The kind of asshole who'd cheat at solitaire.

I'm often amazed by how far a little gentle wit and politesse will take you. I shouldn't be, because the track record is established, but here we are.

"Idiot continues to lie about bullshit."

Celebrating the birthday with Diary of a Local Beer Man, brought to you today by Left Field Brewery, C'est What, Ken Woods, Pitbulls, and the Human Suplex Machine. saintjohnswort.ca/diary-of-a-l...

Herewith, the lastest ramblings of your Local Beer Man with thoughts on the nature of the festival environment, Stuttgartians, musings on the morality of Carneydom, Butter Chicken Everything, and of course, TOOOKENS! saintjohnswort.ca/diary-of-a-l...

Take that, Gaylord Perry.

Renaming a lake because you didn't get your way immediately is the kind of loser shit a loser would do.

I'm not a big Doug Ford fan. Wouldn't vote for him. But he's had Trump's number since day one and has acted consistently since. You laugh at dictators. It's why Ukraine has a Comedian in charge and Iran keeps taunting him.

The return of Diary of A Local Beer Man. This week: actual employment, a new book, Korean boy bands and screaming RUSH fans descend upon the city. saintjohnswort.ca/diary-of-a-l...

Jsj banter. Carney edition Patron: what was your favourite part of the evening. Jsj: oh the tedium i think Patron: what's that? Jsj: it's like boredom but fancier.

I don't know why the algorithm decided that my feed should just be weird nerds negging goth chicks, but I sort of wish we could go back to the talking border collie.

Jsj banter: cne edition Strange woman I have never met before: "hey do you remember when we met a couple of weeks ago?" Jsj: 'i don't recall, and I'm sure I would. Are you sure it was me? There are a lot of doughy white guys around.' Swihnmb: 'you have a very recognizable face!' Jsj: Thanks
