You gotta pay the protection fee if you're gonna do stuff like that.

A few years back, wasn't Ralph Klein bragging about how "Alberta has the lowest oil royalties in the world!" or some stupid shit like that?

Will she last 1 Scaramucci? (I just found out that's actually *eleven* days, not ten. But that's probably because of the metric system)

If you're the leader of a party, that seems to be the bottom in the U.S. Mulroney was much lower. (10-12% at his exit) So Canadians are willing to abandon a Conservative faster than Americans are.

Does that mean they want all Copyright? Like, you license movie rights and derivative works and everything over to them?

I hate that the male CEO dickheads are seen as the exemplars of 'masculinity today' or whatever. The rest of us non-dickheads don't have the money to make stupid-ass posts like this and get bazillions of people to see them.

The thing I noticed, more on my visits to the U.S. than at home in Canada, is that people complain just to get free stuff, even when nothing bad happened. A guy walked into a pizza hut and shouted, "I've been waiting half an hour for a table!" and stuff like that.

The owner of an ice cream shoppe telling some of his asshole customers to stop abusing his teenaged staff.

Are they trying to get themselves turned into a province again?

The only good use of LLM video generation besides those Iranian Lego ones.

The only surprising thing about the trickle of information we're all getting from Cornell is that we haven't heard from 15 to 20 other women who had similar assaults at the same frat, and were coerced in similar fashion to keep silent. Other than that, this is boilerplate.

Apple Cider is Core Childhood Memory. Fresh from a farmer's market near my childhood home. I had not idea I could make doughnuts with it... apparently I need to reduce the cider first...

Same club, the lot of them. One of them already had a job (now lost) at Wells Fargo. Frat -> Finance -> Epstein Island -> White House

Yes, we need to build the oil pipeline to... to send the oil... far away!

"This is your brain on drugs" for sure. But also I'd put "It's 10pm, do you know where your kids are?" before "I learned it by watching you"

"Hacking the website of..." is often roughly equivalent to "Spray-painted graffiti on the facade of..." Unless you can get into the database in behind and access personal information, this is just attempted vandalism.

It's alleged that one of the 57 men in the group chat woke up the next morning, having slept through it, and - horrified - sent the group text chats to Jane Doe. So. HAH! Not all men! 98.2% of men. But not *all* of them.

Head Canon: The #PeachBomb doesn't actually do any damage. Never has. The other #SmashBros characters just pretend it does so she doesn't stop.

Yep. And all we need to do now is define "quality" and we're done. This should take about two minutes, tops.

As a non-religious person, I don't really believe in "souls". Then I heard AI-generated music and I could tell something was missing from the "singer's" voice. If they ever figure out what that is, I might be cooked, but for now, it sounds soulless.

What? Women exist? -------- Schmitt continued defending himself on the Charlie Kirk podcast. Why was he right? Because a) Jack Smith went to a b-ball game b) Atlanta had the only NBA or college men's NCAA game that day So... ... you fucked up because you forgot women exist? On brand for Republicans.

Schmitt saying there was no other NBA game or *men's* college basketbal game that day.

Meanwhile, Gaza is updated in Google Maps. You'll want to know that Supermarket Abuahmad is temporarily closed, if you were thinking of dropping by on your way home.

For all the people who complain about the nonexistent threat of trans-women invading bathrooms, remember that they are same people who made campus rapes a secret.

Except for this LinkedIn post, which is hi-larious and brilliant satire of the dude-tech-bro genre.

Today I fired every single female employee.

Why?

I entered a new committed relationship.

85% of affairs happen in the workplace.

I can't risk that.

So I invited all the women in the office into a meeting and told them the bad news.

I video called my new girlfriend in so she could see I was serious.

There is no greater romantic gesture than firing 50 other women in front of them.

I even fired the ones I wasn't interested in because I'm a male feminist who doesn't discriminate.

The temptation of having any women around was too much danger.

When I'm single, it's fine to have multiple affairs with my employees because the power imbalance is in my favour.

When I'm taken, no. I won't even look at another woman (literally.)

Rule of Youtube: Don't read the comments Rule of LinkedIn: Don't read the posts

I suppose that's possible. There are people who read $200 and say they'd liked to spank their spouse or get spanked like that. So maybe the kink in cuck is the pretending to be angry while being ashamed? I don't really know much about it.

Xavier Torch @xaviertorch.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

You mean there's something sketchy going on on a site named "sniffies"?

Xavier Torch @xaviertorch.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

That is so weird. I'm not into cuckold stories, so I just... don't read them? To me, it's like foot fetish or smoking. Not my cup of tea, so I just don't read them. Unless the kink for these people is getting angry at fictional women, I don't get it.

That's true for most authors, probably, but moreso for erotic fic authors. This is my most popular story on Lit and I have 1800 followers. 181 000 reads 1500 likes/votes 482 Favo(u)rites ... and ... 26 comments. ... Definitely a lot of lurking there. 👍

I think I've been fortunate in that respect. I have a small readership on Patreon that clamors only in a positive way that encourages me, so I've never felt any negative kind of pressure.

Yeah, that's incredible, eh? What the hell leads you to hate that much at random ppl? Yeah, okay, your dad sucked, or you had a shitty husband or whatever. But that doesn't entitle you to blast all men like that. Going after somebody you don't know based off a little clip like this?

Pretty simple. The strait is open and also closed. They are losing and we are winning but also there's little to no oil flowing through while lots of oil is flowing. I don't see what your confusion is.

There's a certain level of entitlement that goes with getting that much power.

000

Having had ppl judge our relationship out of ignorance, I entirely sympathise with this woman and her husband. You don't know what ppl are going through. You don't know what else goes on. Mind your own business.

000

Yeah. She shouldn't have needed to tell the whole story of her personal life. If she's not upset about what's happening, then it's not our problem.
