I see a lot of US commentators about that Oval Office meeting don’t understand Canadian passive-aggression

We are the world champions at this. No one comes close

Here’s the thing I wish everyone could hold in their minds about writers—we love em dashes. We use em dashes. We are humans and not AI. We will not be deleting our em dashes just because AI uses them too. We were here first. You can pry my em dashes from my cold dead hands. F*ck AI.

Tragic news from Canada where the Canadian Supreme Court has gone from the official dress on the left to the one on the right

Canadian Supreme court. Everyone is dressed in bright red wooly gowns, with a beige trim. It looks sort of like a Santa robe

The Canadian Supreme court. Everyone is dressed in black gowns with a bright white kravat, and two thin red vertical lines on the side of the robe

Delighted that Cory is having a moment with "Enshittification," because it's an accurate word for what's happening in tech and he's the right person to describe it.

As a Jets fan, Belichick’s ongoing clusterfuck gives me no pleasure

Actually yes it does, it gives me lots of pleasure

I’m more than content with how this is going. I have a 5 year old’s birthday party at 3pm, so I’m getting a couple beers in now while the fireworks are going off.
