2. I joined the Liberal party early this year so I could vote for him as leader for one reason and one reason only: he was our best shot at avoiding the appalling possibility of Prime Minister Pee Pee. He succeeded in that, thank you very much.

There’s a lot of Carney this/Carney that doing the rounds on social media - accusations that he’s not doing one thing or another that I do not remember him promising to do. I certainly wasn’t expecting a socialist paradise coming out of his election.

Congratulations, #BlueJays! This is a moment in Canada beyond baseball. The idea of the "51st state" team winning the World Series seems like a perfect middle finger to the #TangerineWankmaggot
Of course this will involve besting the Dodgers and that ain’t gonna be easy. But let's give it a go!

This is exactly what I was thinking last night (when I was watching Kimmell on YouTube (props to De Niro, by the way). The only way to get to Sinclair/Nexstar is through their advertisers.
If your local ABC station is owned by Sinclair/Nexstar (as mine is), you can't watch Kimmel’s return on TV tonight. Now would be a great time to do this ⬇️ - I did a bit before, but will be making a full list Fri/this weekend of who advertises on my local station's news, so I can call them next week.
I've seen a few folks suggest this: you look up which stations in your area are Nexstar or Sinclair (both pressured ABC), watch that local news, see who advertises, & call them to say you don't patronize businesses that support that company.

Let's hope MAGA heads don't remember this. (Probably doesn't matter if they do, as Michael Moore is a pinko, so they'd never watch it.)

I wish the media would stop referring to Kirk as a "right-wing activist" and start referring to him (if they have to) as what he was - a misogynistic, homophobic, white supremacist, religious fundamentalist. Good on The Nation for calling this out. #charlieprick

Part 3: Whilst it may indeed reflect what Pee Pee thinks, he’s not dumb enough to say so in public. So, of course, I had to start digging. I don’t know if this is a deliberate attempt to make @charlieangus104.bsky.social look bad or just a fuck up. Whatever. Please factcheck, people.
