Film guy. Enjoy my various musings while remembering that like most of the people on the internet, I'm probably an idiot.
And here I was thinking the legal system had advanced since 1794. Silly me.

Macingand beating someone is an interesting way of 'annoying someone back'...

Call me old fashioned but I'd always thought of that as assault and battery.

I'm gonna reserve my righteous indignation until after the dust settles on this. At the end of the day what matters is what Canada's trade relationship is, not the optics of how our PM looked while dealing with the toddler on chief.

It's true, they're perfect for each other. I hope they disappear from public life forever so we never have to think about either of them again.

I should point out, I'm very much in agreement that ending the genocide in Gaza should be a priority at every level. I was only pointing to the fact that even the most tepid of acknowledgements from leaders results in these kinds of attacks from Zionist civic action groups and it's not ok.

She certainly doesn't deserve any praise for the late support, but she doesn't deserve to be harangued and told to resign for it either.

I think what you guys could really use is better civil protections and urban planning and safety, but you are in America after all so I guess having a nice distraction is probably the best you should expect.

My only solace is that when Ohtani is done their franchise is going to be basically paying half their salary to a guy that's retired for many many years. If there's any kind of karmic justice the franchise will be awful for a lifetime afterwards.

What an incredibly hypocritical thing to respond with. You reply with sentiment about people devastated by tragedy that are buoyed by the franchise and then turn around and say "it's just sports, it's just fun." Give me a break.

What a gutless response.

Good night.

Sorry not really aware of his background, just responding as a Canadian who (as many do) bristles at the thought of our sovereignty being joked about when it comes to America.

Right, my mistake. I had recalled that had happened earlier for whatever reason but that's true.
November 2, 2025 at 5:58 AM
Fuck. Right. Off. You're going to try and flaunt people's misfortune as some kind of entitlement to your team winning?! You're gross. Do you even have a fucking clue about Toronto or Canada or what pains we've experienced? Congrats on your win, that you somehow feel you 'deserve'.
November 2, 2025 at 5:57 AM
I can't think of a more entitled attitude than "man it's been a tough year, we really needed a world series." 🙄
November 2, 2025 at 5:45 AM
Seriously! None of us asked for this association with that dude and there's a laundry list of other things we could be known for.
November 2, 2025 at 5:43 AM
Oh also canada as a country has been enduring a trade war thanks to your mad tyrant of a president but sure, I guess LA deserves it more even though they get there pretty much every other year.

That's part of why this loss sucks so much. We continue to be a dumb piece of a pop star's identity to Americans rather than a metropolitan city with an actual culture. 🙄
