BC residents are in for a world of hurt. Carney now has enough Conservative premiers to amend the constitution. Canadians are spiralling towards US fascism as I predicted it would several years ago. Canadians are fucked.

Surprised the Star covered this, frankly. As we've mentioned, many times, after Jordan Bitove bought the Star, he got an online casino license from the Ford government. Ford doesn't have to boycott The Star now, it's been neutralized to push the Overton Window. www.thestar.com/news/investi...

Heat and drought: Why beer at Oktoberfest could soon be in short supply. No hops, no beer: heat and drought are hitting hop fields in Austria and Germany, as well as spring barley for malt. Is a beer shortage looming? Farmers and brewers are testing irrigation and switching to winter barley.

I built one of those Little Free Libraries and filled it with Ayn Rand books. I am putting it on the top of a telephone pole and when you get there you find out that each book cost $150 because no one should expect a boost and entitlements weaken moral character.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

KAEPERNICK: The part that I hope people take away in this moment is what Robert Kraft and what they’re saying by denying Macklemore is they are openly colluding. They also want people to know that if you take an action that they don’t agree with, they will come for you.

I think he got them to ask Canada, not vice versa

You have to admire the raw chutzpah to waltz into Europe and say "I'd like to give my country an associate EU membership, something that does not currently exist and which I will design for you" lol I like the new swagger-y Canada tbh lol

Fox News complains that underage teenage girls aren’t getting pregnant enough: “The problem is teens and young adults. From ages 15-19, the fertility rate is down 70% in the last 2 decades, which means we are telling people who are young not to have babies.”

Whether it’s Hillary Clinton sharing risotto recipes on a private server or Donald Trump spending 24 hours a day with a mentally unstable aide who has no security clearance, both candidates presented grave national security risks.

In 1955 JOHN STEINBECK wrote this wonderful letter to MARILYN MONROE asking for an autograph on behalf of his teenage nephew-in-law. (it’s not definitively known whether he received a reply or not)
