Ooooh shit it’s happening! “B.C. to end time changes, adopt year-round daylight time“

I strongly suspect that Canada not giving a fuck about the US anymore played a small part in finally deciding on this.

“A $10-billion AI data centre races ahead in a rural Alberta town, population 9,679”: the project would include a dedicated natural gas facility that produces 1.4 GW per day, equivalent to the daily demand for the entire city of Edmonton.

“A Sober Look at Alberta’s Separatist Surge”: a good primer by the Tyee on what’s the deal with the losers and traitors in Alberta.

By the way, the funny thing about that “Silent Night, Deadly Night” reboot is that if you stick to a three-sentences description of the story, it really sounds like a Stephen King book. Of course, the actual movie treatment and writing style couldn’t be further from it.

Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) was great fun! It somehow includes a lot of elements from the (rather mediocre if you ask me) 1984 original, but completely and pretty brilliantly re-contextualizes them with a different overarching premise. Plus: a cathartic mass-killing scene for our current times.

“One hundred accounts are behind the majority of conspiracy theory content in Canada”: of course a minority of mostly-Twitter/X users are behind most of the bullshit. We should ban all social media for everybody, frankly, not just minors.
