Midnight City by M83 wouldn't be a banger if it didn't have that sax solo at the end. Without the song is only just good but goddamn it that sax gets me ready to put up loafers without socks

Unlike the USA, Canada has only one source of federal funding for archives, the DHCP:
www.canada.ca/en/library-a...
The Carney Liberal government just cut the DHCP permanently.
I can't even begin to say how disgusted and angry I am. There is NO OTHER SOURCE of program funding for archives.

Discontinued Food News! This will be especially devastating for those of you, who like me, have the childhood sensory memory of clunking a cylinder of orange slush around in a plastic pitcher of water with a wooden spoon to produce the most underwhelming OJ imaginable, burned into your brain!
The iconic, slush-filled tubes of orange juice concentrate, which have been around for 80 years, are being discontinued, the Coca-Cola Company says.
Minute Maid discontinues frozen juice concentrate after 80 years
The process to make juice concentrate was invented by the research team C.D. Atkins, Edwin Moore and Louis MacDowell in the 1940s.
