When they finally meet, the low low prices will merge into one Mega price, and Jeff Bezos will become Voltron.

I was trying to write something about ice (the frozen water) and my phone autocapitalized it to ICE (the Gestapo) and frankly this is far worse than when it started autocapitalizing Jar because I was spending too much time in Star Wars groups.

Canada is creating a task force to monitor the safety of U.S. food imports after RFK Jr. cut 3,500 FDA staff. Weaker U.S. standards require increased monitoring and diligence for Canada, generating trade barriers and consumer distrust, resulting in economic damage for U.S. producers and farmers.
CFIA monitoring U.S. move away from science-based decision making, documents show
The ‘U.S. Risk Task Team’ will keep an eye on the impact of regulatory changes on food imports

My unpopular opinion on this: don't kick him out, he's perfect.
A perfect embodiment of MAGA, to sit festering in our midst and reminding us to maintain our boycott, hold the line, strengthen Canada. Through the summer when Trump didn't mention annexation at all, this guy kept Canadians on target.

This is how you deal with MAGA. Tell them we will not be lied to, we will not be propagandized at. That might fly in your house, but it doesn't fly in ours.
This is how we should respond to the US ambassador to Canada

We give you Gander. The app. On a phone.
Not public yet… but it’s real, in our hands, and soon in beta.
The timing is a bit nuts… given we just opened investment to all Canadians (at frontfundr.com/gandersocial) but we’re over the moon.
Amazing what can get done with community.

I hate to sorta agree with Ford, but he's not far off. Whatever else you migbt think of it, the Reagan ad has been extremely successful in every import at metric: viewership, viral spread, changing national conversation in two countries...

CARNEY: "In fact, we have free trade agreements with 15 jurisdictions around the world, two-thirds of global trade. Now, some of those free trade agreements operate a little more predictably than others. No prize for guessing which ones."

Nursery rhyme question. Is the fifth piggy singing happily or crying?
I always thought "whee whee whee" sounds like a damned happy piggy.
However I've been informed by randos on the interweb that that piggy is crying.
You know what, who cares what they think. Happy piggie, the end.

This is something that has been on my mind. The people on Venezuelan fishing boats are getting a death sentence with no trial for an alleged crime that doesn't carry the death penalty.
