See how easy it is to make sustainable energy appealing to farmers?

It’s funny that the cops now have a real live “enhance” button they can click to clear up grainy, out-of-focus pictures. “Round up everyone you can find with WWI-era plastic surgery boys!” www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A closeup of the face of the man in the photo referenced in the poseted news story. He is wearing a black ball cap that must have heavily shadowed his features, but through the miracle of AI image enhancement he has been revealed to have, like, two faces of slightly different sizes stuck together along a diagonal running across the bridge of his nose. They might have accidentally used a “Spanish botched painting restoration“ filter to recover the shadowed parts.

An uncropped frinkiac meme. The Simpsons are standing on their lawn. Bart says “It’s crop-tacular.”

This is where I post from

A photo of a Canada Post mailbox. It’s the old kind with the rolled top and the drawer that goes “screeee-yunk” when you open it. It is red. Image from eBay.

“HOPE” was the compromise position.

The headline image of @countbinface.bsky,social from the article except that “HOPE” has been corrected to “EPOCH” to avoid confusion.

Relatable, but it’s not all it’s quacked up to be.

A photo of wealthy young hockey player Leo Carlsson, retrieved from the front page of the NHL website. He is smiling and at the bottom there is a quote reading, “I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE A DUCK.”

Lee Van Cleef is… The Master!

A late-career Lee Van Cleef poses in all black. He wears a sword in his belt and an expression of intense focus on his face. In his right hand he holds a shuriken like a dart. Around his neck is a big-ass medallion.

Something about this juxtaposition cracks me up. Never change, Sportsnet.

A partial screenshot from Sportsnet’s website, July 1. Two video previews are shown side-by-side. One shows Toronto’s GM Chayka with a caption reading “Why the Maple Leafs have ‘won’ the last two weeks in the NHL” (Note: there have been zero NHL games played in that time.). The other shows a smiling Ivan Alexeyevich Demidov, who just signed a long-term, below-market value contract with the Habs. The caption there is “‘I mean, take a look at our team’: Demidov on why he wanted to sign.”

Congratulations to young Pugachyov on his elevation to the Hall of Name!

This right here is the least pressing question that has ever been asked

A screenshot of a Sportsnet video that promises to examine “What would Maple Leafs have to add to get Knies for Werenski deal done?” It’s a pretty good example of Betteridge’s Law because the answer is “no.”

I loved this 2 issue crossover. The way the it was structured around two roommates serving as two roommates for Hunter Rose and Bruce Wayne while Batman was trying to figure out why Grendel was in Gotham was a lot of fun, and Matt Wagner’s Deco style is a beautiful fit.

The cover to Batman Grendel: Devil’s Riddle, by Matt Wagner. Batman is unaware that Hunter Rose is behind him, fork aloft.

A superior alternative to the Drake reaction meme format. In the top panel, Arthur stands next to a map indicating that, pretty much everywhere, it’s gonna be hot. He has a neutral expression directed to his right. The bottom panel is the same except Arthur is laughing at something off-panel.

Dammit. I have to go to SF/Berkeley tomorrow and now I see that the New Lun Ting Cafe closed down. One of my favourite examples of one of my favourite types of restaurant. RIP.

A screenshot of the Google Maps entry for the New Lun Ting Cafe in SF Chinatown, indicating that it is permanently closed. This place rocked. One of those no frills places with no decor to speak of and big plates of pork chops, rice, corn for some reason, soup, dumplings, whatever, all for entirely sensible prices.

Maybe not weird, exactly, but I hung onto a few different Myanmar kyat bills specifically to use them as bookmarks. I figured it was cheaper than a souvenir that said “Myanmar” on it.

A photo of an ornately printed 500 kyat bill being used as a bookmark.

A Smurf, lustily singing what context suggests is a pagan psalmody.

The nice thing about wearing your sexy black jerseys is that they hide the tire tracks

A photo from game 1 of the NHL Eastern Conference finals, in which the young Montreal Canadiens annihilated the Carolina Hurricanes. In the photo, a strapping young man wearing 20 for #GoHabsGo has his stick raised to celebrate an empty net goal that he has scored to cap the blowout. A defenseman for the Hurricanes, wearing a black jersey that makes him look just so tough, is sprawled on his ass with his legs in front of him, looking kind of like a kid watching Roadrunner cartoons on the living room floor. He may be realizing who the Roadrunner is in this scenario.

This is all you need to know:

Yellow (jaundiced, perhaps?) hands holding a note, which reads “You are Fred Andersen.”

A still from Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Jim Carrey is talking out of his ass, and a speech balloon extends downward to indicate that is where Vox’s assertion that “we are running out of good ideas” has originated.

People at NYT will write anything. 'Trump faces reality.' No he didn’t. That isn’t true.

A screenshot of a New York Times headline reading, “Trump faces the complicated reality of a costly, unpopular war in Iran.”

Tony Soprano in his bathrobe saying “He was a brave Czech/Albanian-Canadian sherif, and in this house, Arber Xhekaj is a hero. End of story.”

Keir Starmer: nonironically Cecil.

A Simpsons scene, where Cecil sits across from Sideshow Bob in a prison visitation booth, saying, “ GOODNESS, I HAD NO IDEA.
FOR, YOU SEE, I HAVE BEEN
ON MARS FOR THE LAST DECADE IN A CAVE WITH MY EYES SHUT AND MY FINGERS IN MY EARS.”

More like “Coal” Caufield! Get it? “Coal?” Because he looks like Barney Rubble? Yeah, you get it. Anyway he scored 50, which is awesome.

Barney Rubble winds up to take a shot using a wood and rock hockey stick. He’s wearing a red Canadians jersey and a number 13 helmet. He’s smiling and his tongue is sticking out the corner of his mouth. The number 50 is printed on the boards behind him.

(after a 6-hour rhythm break) BEEYIARARIYA biiiii-iiii-iiiiirr-re-a!!!

The pot has been unsealed, and birria is exposed. A bowl of it with cilantro and chopped white onion is prominently included.

(Van Morrison voice) Biiiii-iiii-iiiirrr-ri-a!!

A light blue Dutch oven sits on an oven rack. Its lid is sealed tightly all around with masa. Who knows what is inside? (Birria. Birria is inside.)

In an alternate, superior timeline, “SUPERPISS” is a major corporate motorsport sponsor. F1 cars in SUPERPISS livery, the SUPERPISS 500, things of that nature.

A semitransparent, plastic, screwtop, handled jug filled with a vaguely bluish liquid. “SUPERPISS” is written proudly on the label, in friendly, easy-to-read type.

🇨🇮🍀Happy St. Patty’s Day!

A Simpsons meme. Nelson, Milhouse, and Bart are wearing green “Irish” hats and looking upward at something out of frame. Nelson angrily says, “I can think of at least three things wrong with that skeet.”

That face when you feelin something crispy

A closeup of Iron Chef Sakai’s face in the original photo. He has a satisfied little smile, a pencil mustache, and a dope gold kerchief tied around his next. Something crispy is def being felt here.

Me looking for the people on Bluesky saying sports aren’t political.
