In a logical world, this would be the ultimate refutation to the people who still believe Trump values the wellbeing of average Americans.

At his order, the DoJ aggressively prosecuted an innocent citizen just to avoid taking responsibility for his own botched project.
BREAKING: Davey Hearn reflecting pool prosecution dismissed WITH PREJUDICE

That means the case cannot be brought again

All those years sanewashing Trump's behaviour, and this is how they are repaid.

Thoughts and prayers.

Some actors have always understood their assignment no matter what movie they were in. I can't think of anyone who embodied that more than Tim Curry.

I don't think he's replaceable, but he will remain aspirational for any actor with the gumption to devote themselves fully to every role they take.

I did a #FourJobFiesta this year for Final Fantasy V. My team was Thief / Red Mage / Bard / Dragoon.

Thief allowed me to steal some rare gear early.

Red Mage mostly just broke rods.

Bard's biggest contribution was vs. Omega.

Dragoon existed, though came in clutch against Neo Exdeath and Shinryu.

I hope Americans realize that there will be no 'forgive and forget' from many of us Canadians.

Not only have they destroyed a relationship that took decades to build, they've also ruined any chance of rebuilding that relationship for a lifetime.

But hey, at least their 401ks are doing well, right?

Instead of asking who should profit from AI music, we should be asking who benefits from it instead.

And if the only answer is AI tech CEOs, then we should really be re-evaluating our artistic values.

There are a few, but I'll go with the most recent one in Expedition 33.

It was the wild swings in tone that got me. It starts melancholic, and then suddenly it's terror and horror. And then, just as fast, it jumps to whimsy with the Gestrals. I had a hard time taking it seriously at that point.
No hate, no dogpiling, just curious.

For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.

It just boggles me that no one involved ever asked, "What will the public perception of this be?"

Or maybe that question was asked, and they vastly overestimated their public support? Again, it boggles, because Ford's mandate is based on the apathy of his opponents, not the enthusiasm of his base.

Neat.

I hope it all goes better than the Wheel of Time adaptation.

So realistically, this train line will finally open around 2045 or so.

Let's see if it survives multiple government changes.

I know there's tons of jokes about going around about the man passing out during Trump's press conference. But, being serious here for a second:

Standing still and rigid for long periods of time causes dizziness and fainting because blood pools in the legs (or so I was told).

Since everyone is doing it. Can anyone guess what my favourite series is?

Also, my Dark Souls play activity is heavily skewed, because I accidentally left it running overnight or through the day almost a dozen times. I still would have put over 150 hours into it, just not 300 like it says.

While I was happy to see Fire Emblem in the Nintendo Direct, I was selfishly hoping for a remake of an older game rather than a new entry in the series.

Oh well, I guess I no longer have an excuse to put off another playthrough of Genealogy once I finally finish with Engage.

I'm not a huge metal person, but I really liked some of Mastodon's stuff. Once More 'Round the Sun, both album and song, is a particular favourite of mine.

Rest in peace Brent. You made the world a better place.

I don't use LLMs in my day-to-day life, but every few months I'll spend hour or two goofing around with one just to see if they've gotten any better - and to see if I can break them. I can report that Gemini is still pointless, and it broke with startling ease.

Sometimes, improbable things happen.

Congrats to @brucefanjoy.bsky.social, who willed this result into being. Hard work pays off.
If he loses, thank his main opponent, Bruce Fanjoy, who has put in the hard work to make it competitive.

That said, it's still a big "if". Based on most polls, Fanjoy has, generously, a 10% chance of winning. Enough to be competitive and force Poilievre to spend resources, but only just.
April 29, 2025 at 6:45 PM
I know everyone is celebrating the Liberal win (and Poilievre losing his seat), and I hate to be a wet blanket, but I want to highlight something:

In any other election, a party getting 40%+ of the popular vote would be a guaranteed majority. Both the Liberals and Conservatives hit that mark.

Happy birthday, Dad. Time to come back now, it’s all gone a bit rubbish without you. ❤️❤️❤️

Question to my fellow Canadians (and those following our election):

If we end up with an overwhelming Liberal majority (200ish+ seats), does the Conservative Party hold together? I imagine there will be fingers pointed and blame assigned, but will they fracture back into the PCs and Alliance?
April 21, 2025 at 11:49 PM
I normally wait until election day to vote, if only to have time to account for any potential last-minute scandals.

This time, though, I opted to vote early. The polling station was calm, and there was a steady stream of people. I only had to wait in line for five minutes before casting my ballot.

🎧2025 Songs That I Like: Jump the Gate by Peach Fuzz

Something I don't often see: a band with both a male and female lead vocalist. The initial comparisons to Fleetwood Mac are obvious. I am (embarrassingly) not familiar enough with FM to make a deeper comparison, but this is still a great song.

🎧2025 Songs That I Like: It'll Be Alright by Sunsick Daisy

I think this song is about being anxious about a new relationship. If it is about anxiety, it is some of the most calming anxiety I've ever heard.

2025 Songs That I Like: Speed by The Wrecks

This has all the hallmarks I associate with a specific sort of modern indie rock: almost too clever lyrics, melancholic lyrics crossed with an upbeat tune, and big glasses on the lead singer. It also has a big soaring chorus and is a lot of fun.

2025 Songs That I Like: Deep End by Spiritbox

This one goes hard once the chorus kicks in. Apparently this is dedicated to one of the band members who passed away, which explains the sadness in the lyrics. I'm not familiar with the band, but I hope he'd appreciate this.
