Good evening. I'm at the Hamilton Public Library Board of Directors.
As many of you are aware, I'm the only person who consistently covers the Library.
On tonight's agenda: proposed access policy for the Central Library.
They are expecting many people to attend. Doors open at 545pm #yhmcc #HamOnt
a neil gaiman defender contests a response of 'no' to a link to a substack, and is told 'I see that like Neil Gaiman, you don't understand that no is a complete sentence'

1. Are you currently using an AI tool for work-related tasks or projects? * Yes * No, but I would like to (PLEASE SKIP TO QUESTION 7)
My employer asks me to complete a survey on AI usage for which this is the first question (required):
it's remarkable how we all decided facebook is for scams and low-grade propaganda and normalized quitting it, and yet people will treat it as a requirement for being alive that you have an account on facebook 2 (instagram)
Yipes stripes man. But how'd you know it was *pink*?
The...gun?

Yes, they should be asked this question but it's just going to mean these assholes will pretend to be Canadian again, which is what Americans do when they're embarrassed and abroad.
Yeah like man I've seen ... at least *four* different colourways of F-91W (black, white, purple, orange, probably others?) on him. Goddamn classic.
unfortunately it isn't possible to adjust a wristwatch to account for the switch to daylight saving time. there are plenty of hucksters out there who claim it can be done, but the reality is that your watch is now defective and must be discarded in a fresh waterway such as a river or swimming pool
Pew Research graph just published that shows 53% of Americans think Americans are not moral while only 7% of Canadians think Canadians are not moral, and 92% of Canadians judge their fellow Canadians to be moral people, as against only 47% of Americans who judge Americans to be a moral people.
This chart. A measure of what different countries think of their own people. Top of the chart, 53% of Americans think their fellow Americans are bad people, immoral. In Canada, the very opposite, where 92% believe other Canadians are good people. Tell me that 49th parallel doesn't mean something. 🧵
In fairness, people were really confused about fictional characters in early novels! It does seem like there’s a parallel there.
YES, the absolute world's best watch, the Casio F-91W. www.casio.com/ca-en/watche...
No I do not you weirdo
Oh, I absolutely do!! I mean I have favourites but they all pretty much get a turn.
Seriously sort of an extremely sad midlife crisis hobby, just cheap ass (but quality, mostly) watches. I mean. I should have like some big dumb car or fifty guns or something
As someone who owns more watches than he has wrists and feels foolish about it sometimes, I am as you expect sort of obsessed with the passage of time
I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.
TONIGHT WE HAVE BEEN WATCHING A CLOWN-DISCO.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPUD
It's amazing people will claim "Canada and the USA have the same culture" and then on something as fundamental as "do you trust your fellow citizens to be good" we are further apart than any other two countries
Revenge! Renegades! One heck of a gulping slurtch! Blast off for Friday fun! #FinishIt finishitpod.com/2026/03/06/e...

Again. America. Food. Unbeatable.
