Time Magazine quoting a @thebeaverton.com article about the US shooting a "patriot missile" at Parliament Hill like it's something Pete Hoekstra actually said might be my favourite moment of the week. Congrats, @ianmmacintyre.bsky.social, you very serious reporter! www.cbc.ca/news/world/b...

In a recent article about the United States' strained relationships with other countries, Time Magazine included a made-up quote from Canadian satire site The Beaverton — seemingly as fact.

That's right, folks, the Ontario government's Black Friday sale is back! And for this Black Friday, for a small donation to my reelection campaign, you'll receive a $10M Skills Development Fund grant! But hurry, because the OPP are having a look-see now, so this is a time-limited offer!

"Littering".
Sixty years ago this week in the Berkshire (MA) Eagle: "Saturday, Richard J. Robbins, 19, of Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and Arlo Guthrie, 18, of Howard Beach, N.Y., each paid a fine of $25 in Lee District Court after pleading guilty of illegally disposing of rubbish...."

According to Leviticus in the Old Testament, "If a man lies with another man as he lies with a woman he should be stoned."

I'm uncertain if this is a prohibition of telling fibs to both men and women or an encouragement to get high before doing so.

Nope, not The Beaverton.
This story has everything:

Ostriches, a guy named Papa Bubbles, a convoy.

Neat
In case you’re wondering:

The key people behind tomorrow’s planned nationwide Ostrich Convoy include an aging Burning Man attendee who drives a psychedelic school bus called the “Church of Bubbles” and a Dutch-born Gen Z social media marketer who imports maple syrup to Utrecht, Netherlands

I missed taking a yellow item out of the yellow cart at nofrills this morning. Didn't notice that ten dollar item until I got to the car.

Sorry Weston family if this buggers up your plan for a new yacht this season.

Are these the files from Pam Bondi's desk, that don't exist, that are a hoax, that are being edited to remove Donald Trump's name, but it's a different Donald Trump, anyway?

Those files?
Trump is cornered on Epstein, he knows it will pass the votes so now he can say it’s because he told them to and he wants them released as well.. after he says DOJ just can’t release it because of ongoing investigations. Or his involvement got destroyed

This has blown my mind.
Fun (terrifying) fact: Moose are so gigantic, they don’t have any predators…except for orcas. In winter/scare months, moose will dive for vegetation and orcas will eat them!

Well, 'bi', anyway.
I kind of think it’s lovely that two presidents from opposite parties reached across the aisle in a display of bipartisanship but maybe that’s just me
