Well, those energy contributions *are* inconveniently helping boil every living thing on the planet. But that's a tomorrow problem.

Honestly, it's better that we get these Trumpy companies and CEOs out of Canada. They demand all the benefits of locating here and reneg on agreements and screw over employees at the first opportunity, just like their imbecile president.

Trump and MAGA have chosen murderous dictatorship Russia over Ukraine, Europe, democracy, and the civilized world. He might love Winston Churchill, but Trump will be mentioned in the same historical breath as Neville Chamberlain. #SlavaUkraini

Michael Treacy is a self-important goof who thought it would be fun to post the name of a woman who was raped by frat boys. He then whined about being a victim when called on his bullshit. If you're trying to find sympathy for him, go elsewhere.

I was on about how no matter what you post on Bluesky, there's always a pearl-clutching scold waiting to tutty-tut that it simply shouldn't be done, often trying to masquerade their own affinity for the person or policy being called out.

Unfortunately, many Ontarians are just fine with this. It's the Trumpian bargain: we'll vote against our own self-interest if you hurt the people we hate.

The tech bros are all in for right-wing extremism globally. It's the same calculation that corporations made with Adolf Hitler: "let us keep making money and operating without regulation and we'll help you gain and consolidate power." Zuckerberg, Musk, Thiel et al. are aiding and abetting fascism.

PM Carney has given these malcontents everything they wanted. They're just afraid to come out and say what they *really* want: a Trumpy country where they can spew hatred, own automatic weapons, ban vaccines, and make women financially dependent. White nationalism administered by rage goblins.

I wonder if Trump knows he's an imbecile and this sort of thing is his imbecilic way to try to hide that fact, or if he genuinely doesn't know he's an imbecile. 🤔🤷‍♂️

If they broke a signed agreement, sue the shit out of them. Canadians are sick of corporations that make and then break promises with impunity.

I do recognize that, but I'm also sure when I was 19 or 20, I must have come across as a gobby little shit (and maybe still do). I try to give young players time to grow up ... but I also HATE when they abuse ball kids, and he's old enough to know better. So, yeah, he's on my list for now.

Far more likely that 2024 was stolen, and we already know about the foreign interference and Facebook / Cambridge Analytica fuckery in 2016. Trump is quite possibly 0 for 3 -- it's all whining projection from Bannon.

TBH, I kinda like the ads. A little window on how the rest of the world sells, works, and lives. I'm more likely to pay attention to a German ad -- or Dutch, or Japanese, or Polish -- than I am an English one. 😄

And they respond with some variation of "But my audience ..." If your followers are real, they'll engage with you where you are. Of course, if your follower count is mostly bots, it's an artificial number that simply inflates your ego.

Elon Musk keeps threatening Canada's sovereignty, and Canada's leaders....keep posting on his social media platform? Non-MAGA politicians, journalists, business leaders: give your head a shake and stand up for your country. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/10/14/o...

Quitting X is the easy bit, but Canada's leaders can't even do that

For many of the country's most high-profile individuals, Elon Musk's social platform is a test. They're currently failing it.

It's too bad because he's a good young player and tennis needs to constantly renew itself. But there are many examples of kind and decent players out there to show that one doesn't have to grow up to be an entitled a-hole.

International protocol. But I'm guessing he's persona non grata for anything other than ceremonial nonsense. PM Carney's govt probably thinks the same of him as the rest of us do.
