As a studio, you have to swing a lot to hit a home run like that, but the guys who run them seem to be trying to create an environment where big out-of-nowhere hits are unnecessary and impossible and it's not working out that well for them these days.

Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.

Here's a song about the last time an American president tried to annex Canada and lo and behold, we burned down the White House to the ground.
Such a great singalong. We will teach it to our kids.

Well, this is a read and a half!
THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.

It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

Don't it always seem to go

Now, my friends, it’s critical we realize that #Bill212 is NOT just about bike lanes. It’s a distraction for public theatre while the majority of the Bill goes unnoticed. This Bill will EXEMPT HIGHWAYS FROM ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS. Yes, you read that right.

Because anti-democracy proto-fascist #MapleMAGA #Conservatives couldn’t hand Musk 🇨🇦’s satellite broadband at the federal level, they’re doing a workaround by having Conservative led provinces hand Musk Canadian’s taxpayer money: globalnews.ca/news/1086986...

For my newsletter I wrote about some things I learned as a young activist that have just stayed true over the last 35 years. I’ve thought of a few more, will put those in the next one.

Looking for alternative press reads and came across this. The Maple. New to me, but curious to see more.
NEW: Maccabi Tel Aviv FC, whose fans engaged in racist chanting and vandalism in Amsterdam, is owned by Canadian billionaire and real estate tycoon Mitch Goldhar.

Despite promises to tackle racism, MTA fans are still considered among the most racist in Israel. www.readthemaple.com/canadian-bil...

Main reason I stayed on X as long as I did was that Chuck D followed me when I needed it most and I hated to let that reminder go. Now @chuckdpe.bsky.social is on here and I’m feeling all the feels
