Cool, del Toro shares some of his favourite bookstores, including Bakka-Phoenix! Was sad to have to miss @pluralistic's Friday night book tour appearance in the city but I did note on Saturday that Bakka-Phoenix still has a couple signed versions of The Bezzle on the New Hardcovers shelf! https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/guillermo-del-toro-shouts-out-some-of-his-favourite-toronto-bookstores-while-hes-in-town/article_a11ea18a-ea07-11ee-9d55-d7fabc35b99c.html

Wasn't Bakka originally on Queen West, and moved to Younge when Queen street got gentrified in early 90s?

1923: Hitler’s failed coup.

No real consequences.
No fundamental changes.

1933: Hitler takes power.

I wish I could implant this into everyone’s brain.

OptimisticMoron,

@Strandjunker
To be fair the Wiemar Republic, did put Hitler in jail for a few months. He used the time to write Mein Kampf.
That said, it is pretty safe to assume that Trump in jail and without access to ghost writers or ChatGPT wouldn't be able to write much.

Kadyrov is in a coma: the Main Intelligence Directorate confirmed information about the critical condition of the head of Chechnya

Earlier, Chechen media reported that Kadyrov was in a coma. A representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Yusov, told reporters that Kadyrov’s illnesses had worsened, which led to a serious condition.

"RIA Novosti published the first election results in Yakutia even before the polling stations closed and vote counting began

The post, which appeared on the RIA Novosti tg channel at 13.37 Moscow time, drew the attention of “Elections, TSYK to everyone!” In Yakutia at that time it was 19.37 - there were still more than 20 minutes left before the polling stations closed. As the Kremlin agency wrote, the current head of Yakutia, United Russia party Aisen Nikolaev allegedly scored 58.29%."

1/2

OptimisticMoron,

@AndersGottlieb
Why do they bother publishing the results? Everybody knows who is going to win - the government candidate, and with what margin - 95.2%.

Rudy Giuliani, a longtime ally and former attorney for Donald Trump, asked a Georgia judge on Friday to rescind the charges levied against him in the Fulton County election interference case, citing several “deficiencies” in the indictment.

We should give Elon Musk full control over the world's entire nuclear arsenal so he doesn't have to deal with the stress of whether or not his actions will lead to nuclear war. The man is under a lot of pressure. It's only fair.

OptimisticMoron,

@lowqualityfacts
Let's start by giving Elon control over a widely used social media application.

Once he proves his coolness under pressure, sure, give the man a few nukes to play with.

Following Elon Musk's lead, Big Tech [FB and YT] is surrendering to disinformation - https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/08/25/political-conspiracies-facebook-youtube-elon-musk/

Elon didn't 'surrender' to disinformation. He actively invited and incentivized its production and dissemination on X-ter

"Manifesting" has got to be the most annoying tiktock trend. "I have $40,000 in my bank account." over and over or "I am a successful real estate agent closing on my third house today..." "I own four luxury sports cars" etc.

The "theory" is that by pretending what you want has already happened you "attract" that future.

It's also a little sad how materialistic and limited some of the dream futures can be--
