Every time I come back to this album, I get annoyed that it's taken me so long to come back to an absolute banger of a rock record. Some all-time guitar work on this bad boy.

Elle. Oh. Elle.

The Line is such a rag, my goodness.
A paragraph from a recent article from The Line, which reads: I’ve seen this firsthand in my own field of history. For an article I submitted to a top journal on the debate over renaming Toronto’s Dundas Street, three different peer review experts thought it was irrelevant to mention the wider history of slavery in Africa before and after the Atlantic slave trade and amongst Indigenous peoples in Canada. The peer reviewers didn’t question the truth of what I claimed. But they made it their “expert” opinion that such a topic was irrelevant and “off limits.” On the progressive part of the political spectrum, to mention the involvement of Africans or Indigenous peoples as slave traders themselves is seen to be in bad taste. It’s just not done. And so the public record is quietly edited by consensus. I highlighted the second sentence.

How can "actual consent" and "fear" can be compatible in any way? Unless you just straight up think E.M. is lying, which just reads like the worst misogynistic read of E.M.'s testimony. Hockey Canada is rotten to the core, and our justice system helps maintain that.
Quote: As part of her reasons - that are still being read in the courtroom at this time - Carroccia said, "in this case, I have found actual consent not vitiated by fear."

My beautiful little prince.
My beautiful black labradoodle, Hamilton. The same dog as the last picture, sitting in profile on a bridge.

I mean, come on. How can you get rid of Ange now? Absolute legend.
A quote from the article in the previous post: "We’ve all got to put on different hats sometimes, whether it’s fronting up to media, the changing rooms or the board, but I caught up with him here in Australia when Tottenham played a friendly game in pre-season last year, and it was just great. We had lunch together. He’s just living his best life. He loves football; he’s a football historian. If you didn’t know, we had posters of Glenn Hoddle and Kenny Dalglish on our walls. For him to be managing a club of the ilk of Tottenham, it’s just freaking crazy. I love it. It’s kind of a dream, parallel universe thing."

Great day to support public education. Underfunding is a choice. Neglecting obvious needs is a choice. The BC NDP is making these choices, and they're hurting kids by doing so. Shame on them.

Love a good data vis; shows clearly why Canada has all the ability to invest more in itself, rather than the need to tighten the purse strings. www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

You can see both parties dip here in what I believe will be Singh's riding (unless things have changed?), but a much greater dip from the NDP. Pretty brutal look. Folks clearly aren't buying them as a viable alternative, or at the very least consider them the least interesting of 3 similar choices.

Not knocking the "Ford-lite" allegations easily when Liberal insiders are calling the Ontario election a "success." This isn't a novel take, but the LPC/OLPC's shamelessness about their love for the status quo is so tone-deaf and stupid.
A screenshot of a headline and byline that read: After failing to win her riding, Ontario Liberals grapple with Crombie’s future With 14 MPPs elected across the province on Thursday, the centrists returned to official party status. Of course, party leader Bonnie Crombie was not one of them. Despite the personal setback for the popular former mayor of Mississauga, insiders see the Liberals’ overall performance as a relative success. Sources tell our Queen’s Park Bureau don’t expect Crombie to step down anytime soon.
