  • Probably not the answer you’re looking for, but…

    I’ve caught most of their games for the past few years. 0 this season.

    Honestly I’m still really bummed that they hired Stan Bowman as GM at the beginning of the season. It soured me on the team, and on the NHL more broadly. For survivors of sexual assault, I think it’s an unpardonable situation.

    I don’t want to feel that way, but, I can’t help it. Just can’t watch the games anymore, even if they’re free. Bowman’s hiring was a message of empowerment to abusers.





  • I might be the only one, but I really liked the ending of Mass Effect 3. I appreciated that at the end, there are things that you can’t save, all the choices you’ve made in aggregate sometimes don’t make the difference you think they will, and at this grand level, maybe nothing you do will feel like the ‘right’ thing to do. I thought there was a really unique, deep sort of meta-philosophy about that.

    I also played the games back-to-back over the course of a few weeks, not as they were released. Part of me wonders if it would be possible to have an ending to the trilogy that satisfied the sort of player who played the games over the long arc of their release and spent years casting their imaginations toward an ending.




  • The way this alarmist article is talking, it sounded like hundreds or thousands of weapons are missing and continue to go missing on a weekly or monthly basis.

    The title of the article states the number of weapons missing, and the time frame.

    I’m not sure the RCMP would extend reciprocal sympathy and understanding to a citizen firearm owner who lost their gun.

    Are you saying you don’t think this issue merits investigation?

    Shortspine thornyhead grow slowly and have long lives of possibly up to 80 or 100 years. The females grow to larger sizes than the males, reaching sexual maturity at approximately 18 cm (7.1 in), or when they are 8 to 10 years old. The females are fertilized internally and extrude the fertilised eggs in pelagic, gelatinous masses.

  • The Liberals will never, ever do it. It would be probably impossible to do before October, and frankly, unhinged to try to get it done before then, even if only from a logistical standpoint.

    The fact that JT spent a decade not doing it, is forever a black mark on the Liberal party, imo. And in choosing to not do it, in effect, the Liberals salted the earth on the topic of electoral reform. Anyone who promises it now is going to get laughed out of the room.

    Electoral reform is a symbol of the Liberal carrot and stick politics of the past decade.

    I have absolutely no love for Poilievre whatsoever, but listen to his answer to the question:

    Do you accept [Musk’s] endorsement?

    He very specifically doesn’t say yes at any point. He starts off by saying that going to Mars is the ambition of a toddler. He goes on to say “I hope Tesla opens some factories in Canada so that Canadians can benefit”. He calls doubt on the notion that a meeting with Musk is ever even in the realm of possibilities.

    For people who hate Poilievre, I challenge you to really listen to what he says here. He’s dissing Musk, actually pretty harshly.
