never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
Don't fucking buy Tim Horton's food, y'all. Don't buy anything that ties with with Harry Potter. DO NOT GIVE THAT GARBAGE PERSON ANY MORE OF YOUR MONEY. She doesn't need another cent of it. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”
This isn’t a radical take. This is what Hamiltonians deserve. We will keep pushing to reduce industrial pollution, ensure our Ministry of Environment takes action to protect the public, and boldly confront the climate crisis.
Our councillors and Mayor were too worried about the balance sheets and blinked. Despite a large majority of their constituents being behind them on this. Cowards, the lot of them.

@robinlennoxmd.bsky.social we're picketing in Hamilton for the first day on Monday. A block away from your old stomping grounds at King and Bay. DM for details, it'd be great to have you there.
I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold
When people ask how those without access to systems of power might combat the rising fascist tide — think of graffiti. The radical orgs of the 70s knew this. It’s visible, it sticks in the mind, it establishes the presence of the speaker not as an individual but as a representative of the collective
I love this graffiti (in Minecraft)
it’s so sad that Kanye West passed away shortly after releasing Graduation. I bet he would have gone on to do incredible things if he hadn’t tragically died 18 years ago
Excited to vote for my sometime physician @robinlennoxmd.bsky.social for Hamilton Centre NDP candidate. Our interactions were short, but very meaningful to me. Your empathy and compassion were easily evident and I'm happy to support you as a standing NDP member.

I'm sure many other people have done something like this, but here is my attempt to port the Magic game engine to a standard 52-card deck: mtgds.wordpress.com/2024/12/22/p...

Don’t start mistrusting strangers just because you are scared or unsure. Assume fraternity
It’s really funny that the streaming services realized that we like to binge tv series so they were like “what if every tv show was 7 episodes every 3 years? I’ll bet you would love that”
I'm glad more and more @magic.wizards.com humans are finally arriving (and using!) this service, but we all know @shivambhatt.bsky.social was here REAL early serving up sweet takes and mythology from the Indian subcontinent.
For anyone collecting photos of Cybertrucks in the wild, I found a new guy
Finally catching up on all the latest hot 18th century BC cooper goss.
Ea-nāṣir is the recipient of the world’s oldest complaint letter. He’s reportedly the worst businessman of the 18th century, a mediocre conman whose actions should have him put out of business. Is this fair? Here’s a thread on the most up-to-date research on this captivating figure.

the band that is best at hurling the tapered sphere through the other’s defenses wins. but this time there were rumors of sorcery or subterfuge. the nation’s greatest female bard, at the pinnacle of her power, is believed to sway the fates of kingdoms and men.
I'm about to get laser eye surgery, reasonably anxious, and the lobby tv has only a loop of the riskiest activities: extreme bike and skateboarding tricks, mountainside helicopter skiing, kayaking down waterfalls. I love this irony.
