Trump’s Canadian bullshit is costing my home state of Maine millions in Canadian tourist dollars. Thanks, asshole.

At a time when people are understandably focused on the daily chaos in Washington, these articles describe the rapidly accelerating impact that AI is going to have on jobs, the economy, and how we live. axios.com/2025/05/28/ai-…

Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney: “The 80-year period when the United States embraced the mantle of global economic leadership…is over. While this is a tragedy, it is also the new reality.'' 🇺🇸🇨🇦

This is what a police state looks like.

What an incredible playoff season this year and the rematch between Edmonton and Florida for the Stanley Cup promises even more speed, finesse and pugilism. Go Oilers! #StanleyCupFinal jimalgie.club/1797-2/

Picks is in fine company. What a performance he turned in last night after missing almost 2 entire series due to injury. At 7-0 he remains undefeated in the playoffs. #StanleyCup

Number two ain't bad. Congrats to the team for a long hard fight and many exciting games and great comebacks. Next year we will bring the cup home for sure.

Happy Canada Day. The new additions to this list of Canadianisms, from hockey talk to indigenous words, show the originality and multicultural soul of the Great White North, which will never be the 51st state. #CanadaDay2025 #CanadaDay #ElbowsUpCanada ctvnews.ca/vancouver/arti…

Truly one of the greatest things I've ever seen onstage. With only a few months to live, Wasit, the Thai indie rock pioneer, took the stage for a swan song. I turn up bopping at 2.44 and Wasit gave me a beautiful shout out at the end. #Bangkok #Thailand youtube.com/watch?v=p_SIvJ…

Phenomenal! There's a new Nick Drake collection with 2 found recordings. #Nickdrake nytimes.com/2025/07/23/art…

What an honor it was to write the script for this documentary on tiger conservation and collaborate with the late Jane Goodall who did the outro. Rare is the human who is both a great scientist and humanitarian. She was both. #janegoodall youtube.com/watch?v=uc1XbB…

With 25 percent of Canadians suffering from a lack of food this year's Thanksgiving is a slimmer feast, but I will take to heart my Grandpa's advice about surviving hard times on slender budgets. #ThanksgivingCanada #gratitude jimalgie.club/struggling-put…

First Neil removed his music from Spotify coz of Rogan's podcast. Now it's Amazon. In either case, I admire the courage of his convictions.

Picks was outstanding between the pipes and a huge reason why the Jets got grounded, despite the Oilers being outshot almost 2 to 1. sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/pi…
