Grad student of theology and writer. Longing for Japanese trucks, mechs, sensible zoning laws, God’s justice, and the cold embrace of Canadian winter.
My hottest take is that the CBC should have a game publishing branch. If you want to promote Canadian art and culture, our gaming industry is massive, and there are a lot of great game devs who've been laid off who would probably be happy to find employment. That or at minimum highlight the great

The newest Pokemon game has a group called the “Society of Battle Connoisseurs“ in it. And they abbreviate it as “SBC” so I can only ever read trainers from that group as “Dylan of the Southern Baptist Convention sent out Arbok!”

The jays having one good inning and then spending three hours holding everyone hostage while they waste any and all goodwill is the energy Toronto brings to this nation, I just want Americans to know this

I'm still on a world series doomscroll following that loss. So I read this as a Blue Jays post. Accurate either way.
It is not a good thing that the past 20 years have been an unrelenting "fuck you" to people who believe in the goodness of humanity and following the rules.
you cannot keep doing this without eventually becoming misanthropic and feeling that the values you grew up with are meaningless and the people around you will excuse anything as long as it doesn’t personally inconvenience them

I swear Toronto, pull off a miracle this once. I beg of you. I'll forgive all of your Leafs games if you can do this one thing.

Man the disenchanted worldview of modern folk has rendered all the coolest discoveries about the nature of our reality completely null. Like what would the ancient philosophers do with the information that time is an illusion, or that there are rocks that cause humans to rot alive that also

So, could an American explain to this poor Canadian what SNAP is? I gather from context its like food-assistance? This seems pretty bad, but I'm not sure I understand quite how bad.

My teenage brother in law explained casually to me that I probably liked battlefield more than COD because I grew up with “slow paced shooters.” And that it was more comfortable for me because I wasn’t used to fast paced gameplay. Chat I aged a century in that moment. Time became an endless expanse.

How sure are we all that provincial $ clawed back from private schools would be lavished on public ones?

I’m not 100% sure that’s how this would go. But I appreciate your faith in the good faith of the government.

I am truly baffled how little of the vast wealth of content that CBC makes is actually on the main CBC news app. I know there are more articles than this, and I know they’re on the website. So why are they so hard to find or non existant on the main app?

Hey @realgdt.bsky.social do you know if there’s any good list of Canadian theatres showing Frankenstein? Been searching but can’t find much. I don’t know If that’s something you would know, but I figured I‘d ask.

This is my regular reminder to everyone that jstor is open to the general public now; a free account there will give you access to 100 papers a year.
regrettably if you try to point this out online you'll get yelled out by 79208 journalists going OH SO YOU WANT JOURNALISTS TO STARVE??? even if you're, say, a journalist yourself, and point out that while there are clearly no easy answers, the status quo isn't exactly working for society

I am now very excited for the new Wolverine game because it’s at least partially set in Canada.

I’ve decided to enter the pie discourse.

1. Butterscotch Cinnamon pie
2. Apple pie
3. Saskatoon Pie
4. Pumpkin pie
5. Blueberry pie
Incorrect, except #5, the order is as follows:

1. Sour Cream and Raisin pie
2. Lemon Meringue Pie
3. Cherry Pie
4. Pumpkin Pie
5. Peach Pie
Um apple isn't even ON HERE?! Blasphemy, Father Jonathan, rank blasphemy.

The correct listing is:

1. Apple pie
2. Cream cheese pie
3. Chocolate pecan pie
4. Strawberry rhubarb pie
5. Peach pie
