Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.media.tenor.coma close up of a man 's face with the words inconceivable written on it .Alt: A close up of a man 's face with the word “inconceivable” written on it. It’s a quote from the movie The Princess Bride by the character Vizzini, played by the great Wallace Shawn. I can’t begin to guess how many times I’ve quoted this movie in my life. 000

Reposted by Alanna Vernon ❤️ 🇨🇦Kelly @broadwaybabyto.bsky.social · 09/11/2025Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down? Federal workers aren’t furloughed. Funding for social services doesn’t dry up. Failure to pass a budget triggers an election. It puts the politicians jobs on the line. They get the budget passed. 8731911037
