QuAIA At Pride?

They said they that this year they were going to throw in the leather trunks and the feather tickler, as it were . But old Meir says they're there today: @JohnTory @TorontoPFLAG @PrideToronto You made a promise that if the antisemitic gang QAIA marched that you would not support Pride Parade — Meir Weinstein (@MeirWeinstein) June 28, 2015 So I  asked: @Bigcitylib2 We have pictures and video — Meir Weinstein (@MeirWeinstein) June 28, 2015 And he points here , among other places, which does look like them. Rather poor form on their part, if so.

You're Not Helping, Kory Teneycke

Image
From Global, earlier today: He's got to be someone's useless cousin, right?  "Please, sir, if he can't get a job with the party he'll either end up in jail or in real estate."  Right?  Here's the full Kory file on BCLSB, for kicks.   And my favorite bi t from it.

Titus Andronicus Is Back

Image
This one should be a mega hit: And this one, combined with one above, makes me think there might be a bit of drug-type influence on the album. Still pretty good, though.  But  Patrick Stickles is the best candidate for boy genius out there these days.  Stay well , kid.  The world needs you.

Short Musical Quiz: Chimp Vs. Sumerian Zither

Image
A Midi recording of the oldest known musical composition (from 1400 BC), which originally would have been played on some kind of dorky harp instrument: The first known drum solo by a chimp: Which do you like better?  So far I'm leaning chimp.  He reminds me a bit of Mickey Waller, who played for Rod Stewart back in the day. Actually, if you have the chimp drum along to the zither it isn't bad either.

The Fourniers Will Fight On!!!

Update (21 June 2015) – Connie Fournier and Mark Fournier, the only remaining defendants in this action have rejected an offer to settle of $1 in damages plus $2,500 costs each that I would donate to charity (outlined below). I suggest people remember this next time they ask for $. Everyone else surrendered last week.   The Fourniers, however, want to throw away even more money. Because they're royal fuck-heads who think losing a string of legal decisions will secure them a place in history.  And, by the way, if you wonder why I wonder at all the panic over C-51: why I suspect resistance to it might be spearheaded by a coalition of gassed-out but unfortunately not yet overdosed hippies and white supremacists getting too old for their leathers...its because C-51 is The Fourniers latest windmill to charge at.  Read the gist of their opposition to it here:  its nutz.   But The Left has embraced it.  So maybe they're nutz too.  That's my line of reasoning....

The Media Should Be Talking About This

It was in Frank , apparently the one day last month when I was not on the Internet.  It's seedy, a sex scandal, although everything between the two parties appears to have been consensual.  And the Minister is a "nice guy", and anyway it turns out he's leaving politics.  For the time being. Nevertheless, it seems an important Conservative  has been caught violating the moral code he and his ilk would like to impose on the rest of us.  We don't really know because nobody, nobody has demanded a response from Mr. Moore. And I don't like the idea of the MSM just turning a blind eye, which appears to be what has happened.  It reeks of being trapped in the same Ottawa bubble for too long with the people you are supposed to be covering, of Stockholm Syndrome, of  mistaking prey items for friends. In any case just think of what the coverage would have been if it had been  someone like Justin caught out this way.  It would have been a feeding frenz...

You Are Not Above The Law, Tom Mulcair

The NDP should pay its bills just like anyone else.  Until they form government, and then we all ride free until the banks kill the party.  But seriously.  Complying with Law would show folks that the New Democrats knows how to pay off debts like responsible people, rather than just racking them up like a union negotiator handed the company credit card for a night by a half cracked manager as a gesture of good will. Right now the impression you get is that the NDP has done as official opposition what it took the LPC and CPC years in power to achieve: they've become arrogant,  and out of touch.

Ezra Levant: The Final Failure?

Image
After years of stalling, Ezra Levant, KKKate, and Five Foot have all thrown in the legal towel and issued grovelling apologies to Richard Warman over the infamous Cools Post.  No word on costs and etc., but in Ezra's case they will likely be huge, for he insisted  that a ton of forensic work be done on Warman's various computers in a vain attempt to find evidence Richard had even used them on the relevant day. Ezra found nothing, not surprising as   his claim was bullshit on the face of it . As a result he, or more likely his dad, will have some rather large bills to pay. As to the timing, well, Ezra's work situation becomes more tenuous with each passing day.  There are already rumours of The Rebel's impending demise.  Staffers fighting over used tea bags and half eaten muffins, for example.  And remember that picture behind Ezra in the network's early videos? I hear its sitting in a pawn shop on Queen East. So Ezra needed the thing wrapped u...

BCLSB EXCLUSIVE: Taped Secret Convo of Evan Solomon With Art Client

The following is a transcript of secretly taped phone conversation between Ex-CBCer Evan Solomon and one of the art collecting guys he was doing deals with.   Gives an exclusive look at the whole "high-end" art community and the shit they get up to. ES: This one here is a Jan Weenix, from the Dutch Golden Age.   "Still Life With Dead Parrot", they call it.  Note the bright colours. Almost to Group of 7 levels, and they claim the  bird stands for Jesus.  Whatcha say? Guy's contemporary with Rembrandt, but Rembrandt commands major scratch. This I can get you for 20 large, with a 5% off if you buy a second Weenix, maybe "Still Life With Dead Snake". JB: It's a bit dark for my pool room; do you have something that will go with puce? ES:  I can get a version of it where the parrot is yellow. JB: Fair enough.  And...do I get points? ES: Bring your card and we can swipe  it on delivery. JB:  OK.  What else you got? ES:  Looted Aztec death...

Ezra's Calgary Anti-Tims Protest: The Money Shot

Image
24 heads clearly visible; one other soul, maybe, holding up the sign next to "#Boycott Tim's" sign. Ezra has claimed 50 attendees, but he must be seeing double.  Get those glasses checked, Ez! PS: Here's another shot.  I count 23 people in this one:

NDP On A Roll

They deserve this result: The EKOS poll: @ThomasMulcair picking up all the marbles as @JustinTrudeau fades http://t.co/g8KcxAgEJo #cdnpoli #NDP pic.twitter.com/2bLoHWFDUE — Chris Markevich (@cmarkevich) June 5, 2015  They've done a few smart things , and had some good luck.  And of course, they are the only party not getting caught in the spatter of the Senate scandal.   The deal breaker for me with the NDP has always been environmental policy (and incompetence in office, but leave that aside for now).  They've always dumped their green wing when their brown wing (unionistas) complained.  BCers will remember the sell-out at Clayoquot Sound.  So they would have to assure me they won't go all pragmatic if elected. As for the LPC, some might advocate panic .  My own opinion is that the "sunny ways" thing has gotten old and Justin and Co. need to show a few teeth.  Angry Tom is catching on because people think there are legitimate causes for ange...
