I've always found "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" to be excellent. Even in some of the down seasons, it was great. Thus far, season 18 is incredible!

To answer the titular question from a Canadian's perspective, no one cares. He isn't "needling" Canadians as the article suggests. This is childish nonsense and viewed as such. Is there truly nothing more important to focus on?

Just moved my daughter again (sarcastic "yeah"), and now going to the Cape for a couple days (genuine "yeah").

Very proud of the fact that I disassembled and repaired my clothes dryer on Tuesday. Only now to realize something is wrong with the washer.

In 2012 I purchased a 2010 refurbished MacBook Air. I still use it although it is equal parts duct tape and aluminum. It works more reliably than a Lenovo Chromebook I bought.

When my school was cutting my major, I posted something on X about my anxiety and disappointment. A trustee recommended I read some stoicism because he found that it helped him (with no sense of irony that the discipline he was recommending I read was just eliminated by the board he sat on).

I just found out the How Weird Faire was cancelled in San Francisco. With no planning on my part, I found myself there for talks a few years in a row at that time, where I always stayed a couple blocks from it. It was full of kind people and was always very fun. 😩

I started making some golf accessories in my (little) spare time. I get such a kick out of getting sales on Etsy. It's a whole lot of fun.
