  • The Buffalo and Fort Erie Public Bridge Authority claims the store owes it up to $17 million in unpaid rent going back years, while Royal Bank of Canada says $3.3 million in debt is outstanding.

    Sounds like they were having trouble long before the current drop in travel. Could be they never recovered from covid.

  • Slate: The Far Right Thinks Sydney Sweeney Killed Wokeness

    It’s a common phenomenon, really. Sydney Sweeney is beautiful now, and would be considered so in any era. But because she’s no longer the only type of woman who’s considered beautiful, certain people on the right think they’re being oppressed and the world has gone to hell.

    Why have these weirdos zeroed in on Sweeney in particular? There are lots of beautiful white women with big boobs out there—Kate Upton, Blake Lively, Katy Perry, Scarlett Johansson, Emily Ratajkowski, and more. As far as I can tell, part of it seems to be that Sweeney doesn’t shy away from talking about or sharing her body. On Euphoria, she does a lot of nudity, and she’s spoken in interviews about feeling comfortable with it. On SNL, she repeatedly joked about her boobs and even wore a Hooters uniform. The National Post praised Sweeney for “playfully owning her sex appeal with zero apologies” and criticized Vanity Fair for suggesting it might have been nice to give her some material that wasn’t about her beauty.

  • Tesla is far from alone in flashing the “death cross.” The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 both showed it as well on Monday, as the indexes continue to fluctuate in wild and somewhat unpredictable ways thanks to the endless uncertainty that the Trump administration has introduced to the market through its blanket tariffs and “will they, won’t they” exceptions that keep getting tacked on and taken off.

    An individual stock hitting this point doesn't really seem like that big a deal when indexes are getting there.

  • Between this and his tough on crime nonsense, it feels like Poilievre has given up on winning anyone over and is just trying to hang on to his base. Which is a weird thing to do when your base wasn't enough to win the last election, but whatever.

  • “How can I return him to the United States? Am I going to smuggle him? Of course I’m not going to do it,” Bukele said while sitting beside President Donald Trump. “The question is preposterous.”

    Ideally you would return him because the president of the United States asked you to, but I suppose Trump doesn't think the Supreme Court's ruling that the US government needs to "facilitate" Garcia’s return requires such an extraordinary level of effort.

  • It's ridiculous that the US government is paying a foreign government to detain prisoners on its behalf and seems to be claiming it didn't put anything in the contract about a way to get the prisoners back.

  • The article is out of date. According to this one, the game has been removed from sale on Steam in the UK, Canada and Australia, and the dev is going to withdraw it from Steam entirely.

    Zerat Games has announced it will withdraw its sexually explicit visual novel from Steam after it was removed from sale in the UK, Canada, and Australia.

    Posted to the game's Steam page, which is no longer accessible to those who have not previously purchased the game, the developer defended its title but confirmed it would be removed from the platform.

    "We don't intend to fight the whole world, and specifically, we don't want to cause any problems for Steam and Valve," the developer said.

  • Influencers like Mike Cernovich and Charlie Kirk accused her of betraying conservative values despite past praise.

    Just to be clear, this was after she voted to block some DOGE stuff; they're not claiming that wanting to keep people from being deported on flimsy justifications with no due process is a betrayal of "conservative values" (yet).

  • The trade agreement with Canada and Mexico that Trump signed in his first term will be up for review next year, but he decided to "negotiate" with tariffs this year instead. Any country can look at how Trump has handled the USMCA for a preview of how an agreement with Trump will go.

    There was a time when sneering at international law would not have been a good look for someone aspiring to be Prime Minister of Canada.

    But, charting new territory, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre contemptuously called Justin Trudeau “woke” for indicating Canada would abide by a ruling of the International Criminal Court (ICC) — a court that Canada helped establish to punish war criminals.

    Poilievre specifically rejects the legitimacy of the ICC charges against Netanyahu, on the specious grounds that Netanyahu was democratically elected.
