Aggressiveness. There are legitimate uses, but it feels like 99% of the time it should be aggression. Add in the fact that it’s a pretty clunky word, and it makes my skin crawl.

It’s very gross when a premier whose province has been minimally affected by tariffs, because of the nature of its industries rather than its political leadership, takes shots at other provinces that are feeling more pain.

Really sorry to hear about the passing of Alan Sprints of Hair of the Dog in Portland. HotD was a holy grail brewery for me, and I’m glad I got to visit a couple of times. Alan was always welcoming and kind.

ProPublica spoke to dozens of people who had lived in homeless encampments when cities cleared them out in “sweeps.” We distributed notecards so people could tell us about the toll in their own words. ➡️ This is what they wrote: propub.li/4veRIqA
Handwritten notecard. Prompt at the top asks: What object was most devastating for you to lose, and how have you been coping? Answer below: Dentures. Were thrown away and coping isn't somthing I can do. It’s made me feel ugly, unworthy, can’t go get a job with no teeth. So how can get off the streets until another pair can be made?

Don't think the Sedins comparisons to Linden or Sundin are accurate. They didn't come off the street with no experience Sedins have worked their way up working various roles in the organization and learning Doesn't guarantee they will be successful but they did it the right way

Hotels have a big World Cup problem: Bookings are running far below projections
Nearly 80% of hotels surveyed by a body representing the industry reported bookings were running below projections — a worrisome sign with only weeks to go before the World Cup.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while, but if the Canucks are actually serious about rebuilding properly (I’m skeptical), they should be doing everything they can to repatriate the Computer Boys. They need to be focusing on drafting and prospects, and those are the guys to do it.

Also, Victoria IS boring in terms of "real cities." We're cute, we're low-key, we have a nice dining scene, but we're also outdoor people and after hours isn't the culture here. Own it. Make it great food, some live music, the odd galleries, and INCREDIBLE outdoor lifestyle. What's wrong with that?

The thing about a sport as small as curling is that the Canadians and the Swedes have played each other ~eleventy billion times. There’s no way the dispute is about one single incident, there’s definitely history there. Anyway, Marc Kennedy telling Oskar Ericsson to fuck off is extremely funny.

I recall having this discussion on the other site a few years ago, but for me it’s Rob the Viking, the DJ for early 2000s Canadian rap group Swollen Members. Turns out there just aren’t that many famous people in Canada.

A man in Moscow goes up to a newsstand and buys a newspaper...
He then glances at the front page, then turns aside and tosses the whole newspaper straight into the trash.
Next day, he turns up, and does the same thing. Buys it, glances at the front page, throws it in the trash.
Next day, same thing. The newsstand worker is increasingly puzzled, but doesn't say anything.
But eventually, after a couple of weeks of this, he can't take it. "I'm sorry, friend, but I must ask: why do you buy the paper every day and then just look at the front page and throw it out?"
"Oh, I'm just checking for something."
"OK, but: what are you checking for?"
"I'm checking for a particular obituary."
"But sir, you don't even open the newspaper! The obituaries aren't even on the front page!"
"Oh, believe me, the one I'm waiting for will be."
