If you're looking for a holiday playlist that's a bit broader than you've been hearing around town, here is my annual effort . There's likely some new-to-you versions, and also a few non seasonal songs peppered in.
Fit for all, hope you enjoy!

AI is a cancer.
New from me: The storied fiddler Ashley MacIsaac wanted to play a show at a Nova Scotia First Nation. It got cancelled because Google's AI search summary incorrectly called him a sex offender. Now he's worried for his safety www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

The summary of this thread, for those of you from ROC who don't read French is basically: we fucking helped deliver Carney the PMship and he's basically turning his back on some of our core values and holy fuck we're pissed. RIGHT ABOUT NOW IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR THE NDP TO UNASS IT'S FUCKING HEAD.
J'avoue que ça me met en colère. Le Québec a porté au pouvoir M. Carney avec une marge suffisamment solide pour qu'il ait peu à craindre que des élections soient déclenchées.
L'environnement est une valeur très importante pour nous, comme elle l'est pour les habitants de la Colombie-Britannique.

This is what is so twisted about our auto obsessed culture that we don't even see how we've completely normalized this.
