I legitimately didn't know they were competing with Steam and it's crazy to me that they burnt so much money on what sounds like something with very little (or wildly misguided) market research.

Simply this.
So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

*1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.”

Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern, two of the nation's largest rail companies, are trying to merge. Unions and impacted industry groups oppose the deal. That hasn't stopped the rail behemoths from trying to astroturf the appearance of public support.

A guest post from Brett Heinz:
Railroad Barons Launch an Astroturf Campaign For Their Mega-Merger
Those supporting a new railroad monopoly include paid-off politicians, business partners, and… an anti-monopoly group?

@errorjustin.bsky.social I've been a Gamepass subscriber since I started it to try out The Outer Worlds in 2019 (I loved the game). With Ultimate at $34CAD a month, I have unsubscribed less than a month before The Outer Worlds 2 (I'll buy it on Steam instead). Do you still think it's a good value?

Got my new work boots today. Since Dayton Boots burned down earlier in the year (RIP) I've changed brands. The workmanship and materials on these Canada West boots look excellent though.

If I saw Melania glide towards me down a dark Silent Hill corridor, I’d shit myself.
Someone needs to put a new light-bulb in Melania.

"The Door" (season 6, Game of Thrones) is one of the best episodes of TV ever made.

Collective bargaining isn’t a privilege. It’s a right — protected by Canadian law and international labour standards.

The government should protect workers, not corporate profits. 3/4

Here's my video on why Orcas versus Totem Poles is a particularly interesting end to this competition for B.C.'s Best Symbol, and yes, it was very important for me to be on top of a symbol while children crowded around me

Their goal is never to communicate or to have a conversation, it’s to advance the information interests of a genocidal apartheid state.

What's good about the Arctic / Antarctic is that it's actually named because the Arctic is under Ursa Major, and the Antarctic because it's just at the other end. So they're named the Bear Zone and the No Bear Zone and it's just a coincidence that this is completely correct.
