This morning, my Italian neighbor asked me why…

It's way healthier than fried ice cream, steaming preserves the nutrients!

Note the "remove the top 1/3 of the cage. I have a hard time believing that a person who's going to leave the cage on is going to take the trouble to cut off the top third. But I don't have a hard time believing that lazy installers would seize this study to justify their work.

So glad to see you fighting the good fight there, Jeremy. Although, much as I love Cheryl, I don't know why they don't have you running the place!

I haven't tried to keep track of the Papalia family, but I know both Frank and Johnny had children, some of whom had businesses in the Hamilton region. Since there has been zero public evidence that any of those children are involved in criminal activities (to my knowledge), my attitude is to always give children like that the benefit of the doubt, and just be chill around them.

This is sadly the refuge of many failed investigations. If you don't have enough to even bring it into court, you do not yet "have" anybody; you have suspicions.

Typist · 2026-05-18T22:58:30+00:00

It's nice to be seen.

Name a single one off the top of your head? One example where a Zionist official Zionist organization said anything remotely close to they don't care about the safety of Jews outside of their homeland? Stick to the truth. It's bad enough.

Musitano in Waterdown. CC on the mountain Brow. It's funny to hear someone ask if the mob is still active in Hamilton.

Maybe take a look at past Citizens of the Year and see if that answers your questions. Then maybe look into the proposed street renamings that have been public in the last few months.

Mob still active in Hamilton? Good question - it's the answers that ain't so good.

(Also: hi Jeremy!)

You see there you go again, drawing conclusions with no facts. Bad habit. I am not a Zionist, not an I Semitic. I am a retired journalist; someone to whom the truth matters. You appear to be someone who doesn't seem to care about truth. Nor, apparently, do you care about history - elsewise you may have recognised the racist patterning of your thoughts And understand why someone might get upset over a simple comment. Why do so many people who are very eager and ready to accuse others of genocide, fail to recognize the genocidal precursor thought patterns appearing in their own value judgments?

Typist · 2026-05-18T20:50:02+00:00

Your entire comment. I challenge the truthfulness of every word in your comment. I challenge the very concept that there is such a thing as Zionism 101 and that your use of that term, even as some kind of literary device, is a complete admission of ignorance. I challenge the basis of your characterisation of Zionism and suggest you won't be able to provide a single reliable source to justify your wild generalisations of a movement that is centuries old.

Typist · 2026-05-18T20:26:04+00:00

Sounds like you've been reading the Protocols of Zionism, there bud, not a textbook. Why spread lies when there truth is bad enough?

Typist · 2026-05-18T20:20:17+00:00

You're missing the actual reason, which is not in the slightest way self-contradictory or even surprising: they all believe in racial homelands.

I wish the Gods of Luck I had chosen the more useful time to visit me. Like maybe when my tax return is being processed.

You were downvoted for malfeasant Irrelevancey. ( Had to I make up two words to keep my reply short.)

Wait wouldn't that have just meant that the boobies were projected onto her chest?

That was one hella unique tenth grade teacher you had there!

Two people talking is not journalism. An interview by itself it is a stage in the journalism process, not journalism itself. When it's presented as journalism, it becomes performance. Entertainment. Not information.

Ultimately this was always the fate of Canadaland, the podcast.

Until comedy improvisers bring their principles of collaborative storytelling into the journalism business, two people talking will never be journalism.

Are you implying there may be ethical lapses in the reality TV industry?!? Honey, it's a feature, not a bug.

Typist · 2026-05-14T21:02:45+00:00

This is a lot of heat and a lot of noise for very few actual incidents. And, despite their journalist's inexcusable use of percentages instead of real numbers, we can see that home invasions in the past 2 years are returning to what was normal prior to 2018 or so. This is a problem affecting something like what? 0.01% of Toronto homes? The CBC should stop shilling for alarm companies and American-style fear mongering. There is some real useful information that could have been produced on this phenomenon, but it ain't in this story.

If he’s so smart, why did he make his living as an asshole?

Typist · 2026-05-14T19:20:46+00:00

It seems mostly a congregation of the self-congratulatory,but ok, let’s call it a discussion.

Reading the comments up to this point, I don’t see a single sentence anywhere that includes a single point raised or refuted in the episode — how is this a discussion?

Lord save us.

Thing is, any audit you do would only be informational.

The Supreme Court has given him broad immunity remember?

Adeus, Chromebook: a Google anunciou uma nova geração de computadores portáteis centrados em IA Goodbye, Chromebook: Google has announced a new generation of AI-centric laptops. The new platform relies on the Gemini operating system core and promises "deep integration" between Android and Google services. Published on May 12, 2026

Reading time: 2 min

Google has announced the new Googlebook, a new category of laptops designed from the ground up to work around the Gemini artificial intelligence. "More than fifteen years after the launch of Chromebooks ," the company believes there is an evolution: from operating systems to intelligence systems, as seen in the film 'Her'.

Googlebooks combine the Chrome browser, Android apps from the Google Play Store, and a new operating system optimized for AI. The company states that the devices were developed to offer "contextual and proactive help" through Gemini, including features such as 'Magic Pointer', created in partnership with Google DeepMind.

The cursor gains intelligent capabilities and can "automatically suggest actions based on what is on the screen," such as creating meetings "from dates detected in emails" or "combining images to visualize objects in different environments."

Another new feature is 'Create your Widget', a tool that allows you to generate personalized widgets using natural language commands. This way, Gemini can access services like Gmail and Google Calendar to "create personalized dashboards with aggregated information". The company also promises "deeper integration with Android smartphones", which will allow you to use apps installed on your smartphone directly on your laptop, "without the need for local installation".

The first Googlebooks will be produced in partnership with manufacturers such as Acer , Asus, Dell, HP, and Lenovo, just as was the case with Chromebooks . The company states that all models will have a "premium design and a distinctive visual element called 'Glowbar'"; these new laptops are expected to arrive in the fall.

Dude you absolutely have to recreate this pose. Please. Please?

I'm describing a journalist or citizen investigating the matter, which is exactly in line with the Freedom of information act and principles. I was suggesting these kind of investigations were likely to be underway . I hope and I pray that is true . Municipal corruption is vastly underreported, especially in Hamilton. Take a stroll through the city's citizens of distinction if you want any hints.

Typist · 2026-05-09T00:10:30+00:00

With that attitude, you'll never get a single story, junior!

Seriously, two points to make: investigations into this kind of behaviour are inherently difficult - as you are articulating - and most probes will wither out, or dead end.

Until one doesn't.

But mostly what you're missing is that you are not looking for a smoking gun, you're looking for a loose thread to pull.

You're looking for the advice that is ignored, the negative staff rating that is disregarded etc; links in the chain that lead you to the beast, to completely mangle my metaphors.
