just gotta end this wonderful night with a throwback to the period of time when curtis sliwa appeared regularly on NY1's inside city hall, lampooning andrew cuomo (he donned the costume and did this act every time cuomo came up, which was OFTEN):

anyway the lowdown is excellent - any reservations I had about going to see the premiere of a tv show at a movie festival evaporated within the first 30 seconds or so. it truly is cinematic in scope and I can't wait to watch the rest of the episodes. my popcorn buddies did an extensive q&a after!

I came here to say this, too, and to also share a photo of my beloved copy, which has fold-out charts!!

it is tragic that Ottawa has some of the best recreational bike paths in North America, but totally horrendous street/commuter bike paths for day-to-day use. anyway here's a photo of the pedestrian-and-bike-only commanda bridge, which I checked out for the first time today. biked to Quebec and back!

I just want the TTC to know that 38-year-old girls can make POO jokes just as well as 12-year-old boys

like come on, conservative MPs, why are you defending a guy who muzzled you, prevented you from doing your jobs, fucked you over on travel, and also LOST HIS SEAT??!!!

I find it hilarious that conservative insiders are willing to call poilievre a dick in a national newspaper but are too scared of him to openly rebel.

even the leafs staff hate leafs fans 😂😂😂😂

oh and guess what, Ottawa, unlike Toronto, is actually sending a team to the finals of a pro hockey league this year!!!

sorry but if you are ignorant enough to book a place called "casa nodisponible", you don't automatically treat third-party sites with extreme suspicion, and you DON'T EVEN GOOGLE THE PROPERTY to look at street view or read reviews... you kinda deserve to get scammed.

I am begging CBC reporters to just... act fucking normal. talk to a real person. why the fuck do you think none of the shit you try to smear carney with is sticking??!! because people don't care about whatever tiny missteps when the sovereignty of their country is at stake!

I know things can change on a dime, but I personally find it deeply funny that despite trump's best efforts to destroy us, Canada's stocks are currently in less of a tailspin that most other countries'. (our risk-averse approach to banking is one of our country's greatest strengths)

I refuse to watch whatever the fuck is happening with Trump's announcement, so instead I'm just refreshing the live newsfeed on the CBC website, and this is my favourite update so far:

went to this tonight, not sure what to expect. was greeted by a pretty full house and heard @charlieangus104.bsky.social, @ausmalik.bsky.social, and former mayors david crombie and john sewell speak, among others. there will be weekly meetings going forward with more discussion and concrete action.
