Did yall see the finish to the 2026 LA Marathon?

If Danielle Smith ever raises minimum wage it will be so that Tim Hortons employees can afford to drive to work to keep the drive thru open

I low-key love this GORILLAZ album

Well, at least all of this was completely unnecessary and avoidable

Exclusive: AI Error Likely Led to Iran Girl's School Bombing Pentagon investigators believe a bombing of a girls' school in Iran on Saturday likely resulted from inaccurate information provided by AI.

Local Massachusetts weekly says it's confirmed that the Pentagon was relying on Claude for strike targeting, which is how they came to bomb a girls' school.

aka, suffering for the sins of the fathers

That everything happens for a reason?

I respect the leave of absence

I look forward to AAR's proposal why Canadians should register

As far as the church goes, this is an apt reflection of Canada's broadly Bonhoefferian approach to the secular in contrast to America's broadly Kuyperian approach.

Oh wow - I've never seen a poll that so aptly reflected the difference between Canadian church and American church postures toward the secular. (Which, like you say, we stand to lose sight of as we absorb american evangelucalism's culture war approach)

Ya I see that text - in context - as something of Barth's wariness of opposition via moderate tones and compromose - perhaps akin to MLK calling out white moderates from jail. Not that escalated rhetoric is always excusable, but KB seems less nasty to me than he once did.

Don't call it a US/Canada Tour if there's only a concert or two on one side of the Canadian Shield

Agreed - and yet it's been interesting to read into that era and see how much Brunner was in the right over-against Althaus & Elert's nazifiable theology, but, compared to KB, did so from a more moderate position that had a more popular appeal. Barth's Nein was the Nein of an ally.

That's a great set of debuts! I forgot to vote but I would have gone (1) MGMT, (2) Bon Iver, (3) Vampire Wkd, (4) Fleet Foxes, (5) The XX

What we’ve seen from Carney over the past year is that there is literally nothing — not the rule of law, not his word as PM (remember his betrayal of Elizabeth May?), not climate change — that he places above economic growth.

Just this week:

- Administration is caught hiding evidence Trump sexually assaulted a 13 year old

- Pentagon demands AI companies allow it to use AI for mass surveillance and killer robots

- Trump launches unconstitutional war against Iran

- Pro-Trump oligarch buys CNN

Polymarket listing for “US next strikes Iran on…?” and the volume is $54M right now

this is hell

In Mark Carney’s Davos speech, he admitted that international law has never been equally applied across the world.

He’s proving that through his own words and actions every time the US and Israel violate international law and he backs them up instead of condemning them.

Ok I have 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 16

Get me one

@abdycohenwi Me: I know panty hose are a little dated but I love how they even out my skin tone Bank Teller: So is this not a robbery? Me: No, It is

annual reminder: Alberta's deficit is a choice.

It's so sad that anti-elite sentiment got split left and right by its misdirection against education and expertise, when it could have united against wealthy techlords and the epstein class. It doesn't even take a conspiracy theory to see how this happened 👇

It's good that sports journalists are asking questions of US men's hockey players but I can't get over how unhinged it is that they are held to a higher standard than the actual president who made (and is) the joke

Did somebody forget to add “civilization existing” as a reward signal or what’s the deal here

The perfect post doesn't exis—

Seems like a lifetime ago that NHLers got together to make a BLM statement

This (anti)cultural moment that is upon us is truly staggering

Do our MPs in the House of Commons realize they are looking and acting like children? Embarrassing.
