    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    True; that's what enabled him to be fatally framed in terms of Trump. However, when PP was leading by a landslide in the polls, Trump wasn't (back) in office yet.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Look at it this way: if the tech billionaires have their way, war will be conducted by AI and the question of "food" will be redundant. (Just another element in their post-human callousness. Artificially generated bots who don't require food, who don't require salaries, etc. You can even...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    And said resignation *and* Trump's inauguration went nicely hand-in-hand to that end (Still, all things in hindsight, the parallels btw/Studio 54 Maggie T and Coachella Justin are pretty vivid)

    Hey, what's good for Fyre Fest is good for the US military, in the hands of these bozos in charge...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    Ah, another of those degenerated-into-bickering discussions. However, remember that re the PP alternative being framed as "dystopian": in the context of the election, it was really less about him than about the reflected glory of Trump, and PP being fatally framed as more of a likely...

    Miscellany Toronto Photographs: Then and Now

    Okay, that's a case where I momentarily couldn't pinpoint the first photo until the second made it clear (even if the Leaside Bridge on the right ought to have offered a hint). Wonder what the full version of the "C" sign at the right edge looked like. Also: boy, curbless roads looked sloppy...

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    You know, when the smoke clears on all of this, *if ever* the smoke clears on all of this, we'll probably be finding out *how* blitzed Trump and his cabinet and hangers-on (including the AI-besotted tech billionaires) were on one form or another of artificial stimulant, in liquid or pill or...

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    The ones most preoccupied with that staledated stuff would likelier be parking their vote with Furey than with Bradford.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Though it's not like Evangelical Christianity is all that disposed to what the Vatican thinks; and there's a history to that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Catholicism_in_the_United_States

    Interesting. They cover Doug Ford's riding.

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    Might it be John Tory *Jr.* that they're considering running? I believe that pre-Doly, there were murmurs of *him* being the SSW Lib candidate. (And a flashback to how, back around Y2K, George W. Bush became GOP presidential frontrunner largely through name recognition--not as Texas governor...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    I actually think there subliminally *can* be something to read in such results. Or, it's not like everybody who voted Conservative or NDP in those very same ridings in '25 did so with the confidence that their party would win *then*, either--so if the chances were as dismal now as then, why did...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    *Was* there polling for University-Rosedale, though? If there was, it was never brought to my attention--and it isn't the kind of race that would have earned a "daily tracker" or multiple polls from several agencies. Again, let's not mistake "poll aggregators" for projection sites that operate...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    If by "poll trackers" you're referring to projection models as opposed to actual riding polls, those are always quackery. '25 was really an exceptional election...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    Maybe the bigger story than the Libs winning both Toronto byelections is the NDP apparently reclaiming nominal opposition status in University-Rosedale.

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Somehow, to confront the Pope with that kind of visual imagery is by several calibers more deranged than simply confronting the Vatican with that kind of statement-mongering. Essentially, it's like siccing a bunch of J6 rioters on the Vatican to spray-paint MAGA and cr@p on the floor and trash...

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    Some of those highish figures for places like Dufferin, Haliburton, Muskoka, PEC (well, high enough to count in a list like this) seem propelled by affluent ex-Torontonians who chose to live in the periphery. (And I'd imagine those peripheral-place shares were especially boosted btw/2016 and...

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Piggybacking off the Swalwell post above, to insist upon the full acronym is like insisting Los Angeles be henceforth referred to as El Pueblo de Nuesta Senora la Reina de los Angeles de Porciuncula. (Also, take it up with residents of Dysart et al up in Haliburton.)

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Yeah, ultimately, the *real* problem is with how the term "SJW" has been weaponized by bad actors--when, in fact, a lot of what they stand for is perfectly benign. Or at this point, said bad actors might as well be arguing that anyone who's pro-Roe v. Wade is a SJW. Now, I can understand...
