The Stochastic Game

Oh hey, a new pharaoh’s tomb was found in the Valley of the Kings! I hope there’s a Mummy’s Curse in there, that would lighten up the world news.

Oh, so downloading pirated content is OK as long as you don’t upload it? It’s funny how megacoporations in 2025 use the same sort of hypocritical arguments as teenage pirates in 1995.

Tax billionaires. Regulate corporations. Pirate what you can’t own legally.

This petition to revoke Elon Musk’s Canadian Citizenship has more than 38,000 signatures at the moment. The House of Commons isn’t slated to resume until next month, so wouldn’t it be fun if the number of signatures doubled by then?

Oh hey, more Benin Bronzes going back to Nigeria. Good. The story of these things is quite crazy.

I do hope we’ll see Nigerian museums sending some of them out on loan or travelling exhibits.

Interesting to learn about Carney and Freeland’s relationship (gifted link)

I like both of them so far. Freeland is more likely to address the plutocracy problem, Carney is more likely to control the financial sector. I hope whoever wins keeps the other one around.

Half of the great TTRPG dice fudging debate would probably disappear if people realized that one side is assuming open rolls, and the other side is assuming secret GM rolls

If you want to know how much Canadians are pissed at anybody associated with Trump and Musk, I’ve seen most hockey fans say “fuck Wayne Gretzky” and call him “The Great Once”

Good morning! The snow is gone now but fun times were had, especially when the good fluffy boy met a snowman and looked nervous

Binge-watching all the Fast & Furious movies, I’m realizing that there’s a whole bunch of problems that can be solved by driving a car really fast! Who knew?

“Amazon Is Making It Harder to Move Your E-Books Around”: remember that there’s no theft without ownership. Piracy is one of the only online media spaces left that isn’t a victim of enshittification.
