I'm an old fart who lives off grid, loves symphonic metal, rides a motorbike when the Canadian winters allow. Former award-winning journalist, thinking of coming out of retirement and running old-school D&D games again.
Fuck, yes. The lack of direct communication these days is maddening.
This is so true 🤣 when my kids talk to me and they start rambling, I say get to point, you are losing me 🤭 #GenX

Dear Excited States.
Sexual assault doesn't give a shit about your voter cards. If you pulled your heads out of your biased asses for just a half-second you'd realize how plausible it is that both Trump and Clinton fucked underage, non-consenting girls.

The more I think about it, the more I'm going to lean towards the unpopular opinion that the Vancouver #canucks will not regret the Hughes trade. Buium is a freaking unit who has room to grow. Guaranteed #1 D, period. It was obvious Hughes didn't want to be where he was.

It's kinda sad thinking how Facebook has imploded. Our area had a massive windstorm. 33,000 without power; 8,000 in our region alone. I'd volunteer to help clean up fallen trees, but ... the "social" part of Meta is so fucked there's no where left to do that.

I think I need hearing aids.
Tuned into the Sportnet feed and I ... I ... well, I thought Batch said the #Canucks were leading 3-0 after one, and
Yeah.
Time for hearing aids.

Oh, look. Elias Petterson (Floppy Pete) is now a long-term injury. The #Canucks face a problem that is either
1) their medical staff is incompetent or
2) their communications is horrific
3) Both.

Get used to it until management clues into the reality that they have to #firefoote because he can't coach at any level beyond U-14 B.

This story makes me think less of Quinn Hughes, to be honest.
The quitter wanted out.
I remain convinced he was a poor choice for #canucks captain.

Hughes' agent says Vancouver Canucks treated him like he had no-trade clause | Sports
The Vancouver Canucks got a lot of praise from Quinn Hughes agent based on the way they handled the whole trade negotiation process.

Alright. I need recommendations on good quality earplugs for motorcycling and the occasional heavy metal concert. My old GroundShakers are pretty much toast, and they don't seem to make 'em anymore.

Spent three weeks in Latin America. Met lots of tourists, and made an interesting observation. Tourists from the US either mentioned they were from a specific state, or a specific town. EVERY other tourist mentioned their country first, or alone.
Another example of 'Murrican arrogance.

Hey Toronto. Just finished three weeks abroad, and you have the rudest, nastiest people I met on this trip. And worst drivers.

Has Patrick Allvin been fired yet? Adam Foote? If not, why?

I am growing so tired of all these scammy fundraising appeals. They usually feature:
Single mother can't afford unexpected medical bill
Old single guy can't afford rent hike
Stuff like that.
Invariably posted by the same person who created some gofundme.
Transparent as shit.

I find it funny that people are shocked that #FIFA acts a collection of crooked rich fucks with no morals, when FIFA has long been a collection of crooked rich fucks with no morals.

Quick cartoon. I was hoping to stay unplugged this week but I saw some news and had to take a break to draw this out. I think we all needed to see it realized.

Listening to Canucks Talk, and the defence of Adam Foote is unreal.
The guy was a disaster in the WHL, and is predictably a disaster in the NHL.
I have no idea why he was hired, and right now, he should be fired
