I guess I am on this site now.

Ottawa, Canada.
They could have funded literally three of these for the price of the SAAQ fiasco.

The CAQ has been useless. No tunnels. No transit. No plans to retain doctors.

Good riddance to all of them. It cannot come soon enough.

He was the best of all of us here in Canada in so many ways, and I miss him dearly.

I like Marc and the Jacobs team. Watching them in the qualifiers it seemed they were the best to represent us for what will be a very competitive field.

But it was boorish behaviour. Curling isn't hockey. And for anyone representing us, we should be *better* than other loud assholes in the world.

I think every tech bro got too used to the nearly universal adoration from the phase where they were building generally useful stuff and making everyone around them some money.

The enshitification phase, AI backlash and the related downturn of opinion is leading to them all cracking up a bit.

Full credit to the Swiss goalie Saskia Maurer for really making Canada work and keeping it close.

Not to be snarky, but shouldn't this be literally Day 1 in J-school? (And if it isn't - why not?!?)

The inverse relationship between Tesla sales (down!) and Tesla stock (up!) makes this perfectly clear at this point.

When I did my MBA we did have a unit on stock pricing and it's now out the window - pricing is "vibes" - either from the very rich or coordinated meme stocks who can move at scale.

I used to think it was an abomination, but my wife likes pineapple on pizza so I have done a lot of work to become more tolerant and accepting.

Take joy where you can get it.

I have only crossed the border once in the new reality. It stressed me out and I'm a middle aged white guy.

Well, I won't be downhill skiing in that (I once got stuck on a lift for an hour at Tremblant in similar temperatures and that gives me pause now), but yeah, we'll just be going about our lives as usual.

I don't even put on a second layer under my jeans for -9 😂

It was never meant to make money. It's a bribe, pure and simple.

Newspapers owned by foreigners should not receive taxpayer-funded support. Why are my tax dollars paying for this?

It would have been a word for word copy of JD Vance shitting on Europe.

He is so, so, bad at this. It says a lot for the "conservative" party in Canada that he of all people is their figurehead.
