Thanks, Trump.

On this day of recognition and reflection on Indigenous genocide in Canada, it's so hard to ignore the ugly denialism from people who might hear about the violence and starvation upon the Irish 200 years ago and say "Oh that was awful and totally happened."

SI, because "it's not artificial." Obviously, the Trump family has a crap ton of money in the industry. The other scientific reality he calls a hoax is global warming.

It is insane that a company can admit this without the owners/founders being immediately arrested. It's as if someone filed an IPO for a shopping mall franchise called Build-A-Bomb, or a food court addition, Methalicious!™️

Was just rewatching the movie I, ROBOT, and it's striking how relevant it is now; not necessarily for the harmful tech, but for the harmful people behind the tech.

i was on my college conduct board. i do t think anyone can get mad at me for telling you: 20 years ago, a student threatened his female friend, took her by the shoulders, and shook her. you know what we did? we expelled him. that was "all" it took. he laid hands on a girl, so we kicked him out.

LIndelof's WATCHMEN series was gloriously weird, and with the addition of Tom King on #Lanterns, the weird is even greater. But tonight's penultimate episode was real wtf stuff.

This is one area, the Canada Food Inspection Agency, where it was irresponsible to make cuts, and PM Carney needs to remedy it. I'm surprised we didn't have a deluge of bagged diarrhea lettuce from the US.

Cool to break the law now, and deal with courts later. It seems Trump knows he can't sway voters now—he's given up. Focusing on the base is all he's got.

I'm not a Baz fan generally, but Moulin Rouge still has a special place in my heart. Surreal, maximalist, hilarious, and some of my favorite actors just swinging for the fence as they've rarely done since.

This whole potash thing with Trump is a great example of how moronic he, or likely, his whisperers are in reaching for trade leverage. So much harm being done to their own people.

The best way to fight back against the Paramount/Warner Brothers merger is to support independent artists, journalists, writers, filmmakers, musicians and everyone else who has been walking a very hard path to putting things out into the world.

Man, people need to rewatch Lindelof's WATCHMEN limited series on HBO/Crave. It's even more relevant now than when it debuted in late 2019.

Pardon my ignorance, American people, but if Washington DC was granted statehood, would that mean Trump would no longer be able to pardon himself against charges brought at the (new) state-level?

I think it is badly underappreciated the extent to which our collective focus on apocalyptic scenarios serves as an index of cultural and individual exhaustion. The world is not ending. But we often wish it were. We yearn for an ending that will vindicate us and prove our enemies wrong forever.

This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate. The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.

One thing I did come away with is that while doubtless considerably more aware of Canadian wrath than Americans seem to be, I definitely underestimated it myself. If asked to describe in one word the vibe off Carney's choice of words, I think I'd have to go with: Ukrainian. Canada *means* it.
