I'm not here (or on Threads) to be famous. I come here to promote ideas I think are important, to contribute to those conversations, and to learn. As soon as Bluesky matches Threads' character limit, I'll cross post everything.

If you're wondering why I don't post here: 1. The character limit here is less than Threads, so my longer posts (often 10-15 posts) have to be re-divided to fit Bluesky 2. Despite having twice my follower count here as on Threads, I get almost no response. On Threads, I have conversations.

Vincent Musetto passed away ten years, today. There is no reason why you should ever have heard of this former editor of the New York Post, other than he is the author of (arguably) the world's greatest newspaper headline: Headless Body in Topless Bar.

I saw a bit of the King's day, when he was working the crowd. As he shook a man's hand, the guy said to the King, loudly, "It's an honour to meet you, my friend!" What a perfectly Canadian thing to say! Polite, respectful, honest, and informal. I love us! #CDNpoli

This is some serious Hail Mary Pass bullshit. It's not as desperate as the 2015 Barbaric Cultural Practices Hotline, but it's still really dumb. This is intended to appeal to voters who think, as one Ab UCP MLA put it, "painting a line down the middle of a road is too much government." #CDNpoli

I'm watching Navy SEALs, a silly 1990 action flick, and I see my second* most hated movie trope; movie driving. I just... Michael Biehn is a professional actor, and more to the point, had presumably driven a real vehicle at some point prior to filming this scene. * First is the Wilhelm Scream.

I'll say it again. If the CPC thought they could win on their actual ideas and plans, they wouldn't hide them or resort to dirty tricks and conspiracy theories. Their ideas are deeply unpopular in Canada, but they don't think that should get in their way. #CDNpoli

Look at when and where to vote. Find a way to get to the polls! - If you need a ride, many candidates have volunteers on standby to drive people, and if they don't, I'll bet they still find someone for you! - If you are able, the polling station is likely close enough to walk.

Both Aaron Gunn and Andrew Lawton are social media influencers who built up large followings among right-wing audiences. Dropping either could spark a backlash with Poilievre’s own base. Thus the objectively offensive views of Gunn and Lawton are still welcome in the Conservative tent. #cdnpoli

I know, but he's in the lead because of his party, not his charming personality. he was a red flag a week ago. The party could have replaced him right away and STILL be in the lead in that riding. This tells me they're okay with his statements because they know their voters are okay with them.
