🎰🃏 IT'S A GAMBLE 🃏🎰
💎🤖 E1 - THE BIG HOOF 🤖💎

OUT TODAY!

Welcome to Denseburg! A perfectly normal city where some entirely standard criminals perpetrate a completely routine diamond heist that goes totally smoothly, with not a single unexpected complication.

LISTEN NOW!
Red background with the top of a large pink heart in the middle. At the top left, yellow cursive text reads, “Episode 1: The Big Hoof”. Below it, the logo for the series: “It’s a Gamble.” To the right, three characters in a group shot. G Vitae: They are wearing a green full body suit with a short yellow jacket. They’re smiling looking at their phone which is alight with emoji reactions. Sublime Virga: She has translucent green skin, long green hair, wearing shorteralls, and she’s kneeling holding a wrench. Connie Pactor: She is a golden cloud android with a translucent head dome. She’s large, wearing a well tailored blue suit and standing with her hand in her pocket.

Book Cover of the Day:
WITCHES POTIONS and SPELLS ~ cover of the book Witches' Potions and Spells by Kathryn Paulsen. The cover is illustrated in a vintage style, with a turquoise background and black and white line drawings. The illustration depicts two witches in black robes and pointed hats, stirring a large black cauldron over a fire. The text "WITCHES POTIONS and SPELLS" is prominently displayed at the top. The scene includes stylized trees and a red sun or moon with a bat flying in front of it. Other creatures, such as a crow, an owl, and a chameleon, are also part of the design.

Hey Ontario. Please pay attention to this. It's fucking terrifying. As a renter I rely on rent control in order to, you know, LIVE, and this threatens to take it away from me and most people I know.

Write to your MPP. Call Ford's office. I don't even know what to think right now. Fuck Ford, man.

In particular, they want leases to no longer necessarily remain in effect indefinitely, so that landlords have more options for creating tenant turnover.

Current situation in left-hand column, proposal on the right:
Left column: Under the RTA, all tenants have "security of tenure", which means that tenants have a right to remain in their rental unit as long as they follow the lease agreement and the RTA. Landlords cannot evict tenants without a legally valid reason, and after a fixed-term lease ends, the tenancy typically continues on a month-to-month basis. Right column: The government would consult on alternative options on lease agreement expiry that could allow landlords to control who occupies their units and for how long, allowing them to adjust tenancy arrangements based on market conditions, personal needs, or business strategies. This could add flexibility for some landlords in the approach to leases, potentially unlocking additional rental unit stock.

Autumn Sonata, Klemens Brosch, 1920.
Autumn Sonata by Klemens Brosch; painting of a window scene with a dark, flowing curtain partially obscuring the interior. Outside the window, a dark, dense forest is visible on the left, while a tree trunk with a bird perched on it frames the right side. Numerous small, reddish-pink petals are scattered throughout the scene, both falling through the air and resting on the window ledge and the foliage of a bush beneath the window.

Absolutely fuck this. Good audiobooks involve so much care and work from the actors and directors and engineers, this is bullshit. Great to know we’re moving further into an absolute creative dead zone where the same shitty fake voices monotone at us forever.

Fuck this, absolutely fuck this, everyone who loves audiobooks loves their favourite narrators because they are great at their jobs and interpreting the author's words and they make the experience what it is www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...
