If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Angus: Canadians need to be really ready. We are upping our investment in military spending significantly. We are now procuring from the Europeans—whereas before, we would have just gone to the United States as usual to buy gear. We’re not buying gear from the United States.

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.
A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

Pierre Poilievre silenced 16 Conservative candidates who supported the Housing Accelerator Fund.
He'd rather see house prices rise than admit a Liberal plan works. He'd cut money coming to our city.
What say you Jeremy Nixon - will you support HAF & building homes in Calgary?

Fact check: The new fundraising email from Pierre Poilievre is, in fact, a conspiracy theory.
While it's true that Mark Carney adviser Mark Wiseman backs this initiative, it is NOT Mark Carney's "real agenda."
He has promised to keep immigration caps in place.

Underappreciated what an advantage this is for Carney/how much this puts Poilievre at a disadvantage during a campaign.

3: Building on prior successful bullet points, I developed and implemented a third bullet point.
4: I drafted, edited and published a 4th bullet.
5: Egged a cybertruck

Elon Musk and DOGE are in the news again for trying to undo firings of USDA staff who were working on the H5N1 avian flu outbreak.
Firing people working on a current crisis is visibly stupid. But firing people working on preventing or responding to the next crisis should be seen just as dimly. 👇

A good friend in Ontario who works in a trade-exposed industry summed up how wild this whole ride has been pretty succinctly:
"It’s just crazy to me that a guy who ran on tariffs is pausing them because we appeased him on a problem that doesn’t exist"
How does any business make sense of this?
