imagine your legacy being using your political career to undermine your entire pre-politics career just so you can make the most humiliating blunder and lose to a party that was on the verge of collapse

do think there's a danger of looking at extremely cool shit like a car driving upside down then doing a kickflip before landing, and convincing yourself it's actually lame because the guy funding it is a white supremacist

What is happening right now? Is this happening? How did everything get so weird? Did I unwittingly ingest a hallucinogen? What's going on here?

Donald Trump's "deal" with Belarus on potash was an obvious (and empty) bluff. And yet, Pierre Poilievre's MPs were more than willing to believe it -- and blame the federal government and a non-existent carbon tax instead. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/09/23/o...

nationalobserver.comPierre Poilievre’s Conservatives can’t wait to buy Trump’s bullshitDonald Trump's latest economic threat involves replacing Canada's potash with imports from Belarus. The official opposition decided to blame ... the carbon tax?

It's amazing how many people will tell you with a straight face that "immigration is spiraling out of control under the Liberals" when the government very publicly, 2 years ago, announced they were slashing immigration targets in half and freezing immigration rates at a hard cap until 2028

I....don't know what prompted this from the president today, but StatCan reported JUST this morning that in the past year, Canada experienced its slowest population growth since 1916. The country's population is essentially stalled right now.

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

The other day I saw a car with a bumper sticker that said “My other car is a car with a sticker on it that says my other car is this car.”

Trump: Electric is a heavier form of propulsion. If you get a little leak and the water starts coming in the boat, do you get electrocuted? If I'm in an electric boat, and the water is pouring in, but 5 yards away there's sharks, do I take the electrocution or sharks? I'll take the electrocution

This whole thread makes me feel like my scalp is on fire. I feel like some of us have been shouting the bolded part here for years and they just tweeted it out (in court).

two different paragraphs, two different sections but encourage you to click and read the unsealed (pink) of both of them together. And stop and think about the impact and harm to news media and civil society. /8

Can't say any of this is surprising, but kinda crazy to see it all in one thread

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1
