Computer, please summarize everything PG Wodehouse ever wrote in ten seconds
rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

The only industry western Canadian conservatives care about is the bumper sticker industry.
Danielle Smith: "I hope people today feel a lot more confident that Canada works than they did a couple of days ago."
UCP convention crowd: LOUD BOOS
Danielle Smith tried to sell her federal-Alberta energy deal to the UCP convention crowd: tepid applause.

This ain’t a base that wants Smith to work with a Liberal PM on a better industrial carbon tax.

I first saw her at Blanche Macdonald Ateliers at Homer and Robson. She was wearing a red dress. She appeared like an angel. Out of this filthy mess, she is alone. They... cannot... touch... her.

It was complete joy to talk to my dear pal, the brilliant Benjamin Dreyer, to whom I am ever grateful.
At long last, here's my conversation with wonderful @elizmccrack.bsky.social, whose wonderful new A Long Game goes on sale (at least in the US) next week!

he finally got his revenge against the man who gunned down his friends and left him for dead. That's right, Santa Claus.
Starting off the season with my favorite holiday-themed cover.

One of many incredible SCTV gags.

My dad (who plays bass on the original) thought this was about the highest form of flattery possible.
