There are other 'fact-checks' in there that are overly charitable to Trump;
I think the whole thing is pretty charitable to Trump in general, but they've got to put some controversial verdicts in to get those juicy juicy clicks. I'm pretty surprised they didn't write an entire essay about vaccines in response to the comment about autism.

LCBO to stop selling U.S products in response to U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods

March 4, 2025 – TORONTO – As part of Ontario’s response strategy to U.S. tariffs, the government of Ontario has directed LCBO to take operational steps to implement restrictions on all U.S. beverage alcohol sales and related imports into Ontario, effective immediately.

LCBO has ceased the purchase of all U.S. products, retail customers are no longer able to purchase U.S. products on lcbo.com and the LCBO app, and wholesale customers, including grocery and convenience stores, bars, restaurants, and other retailers, are no longer able to place orders of U.S. products online.

Furthermore, spirits, wine, cider, beer, ready-to-drink coolers/cocktails, and non-alcoholic products produced in the U.S. will no longer be available in our retail stores or LCBO Convenience Outlets.

Our in-store teams can help customers find alternative products from our extensive selection of products from Ontario, Canada, and around the world.

LCBO is the importer of record for all U.S. alcohol products into Ontario, with annual sales of up to $965 million. We currently list more than 3,600 products from 35 U.S. states. U.S. products will not be purchased by LCBO until the LCBO is directed to resume normal business.

Did you know that Amy Coney Barrett was a "DEI hire"? Such is the opinion of the MAGAsphere now that she didn't do everything Trump wants.


Remember: With this crowd, if you're not a rich white straight Christian man, you're only an "ally" until the instant you stop being useful.

Speaking of AI slop
Yes, it was only going to be a matter of time until people starting working out how to game AI news output.

Fundamentally, any AI system that is based on the statistically most likely next word according its source material is going to be very vulnerable to manipulation of its source material, such as through website spam.

Of course, this is also a way that LLM AIs could be used incredibly destructively, by actively curating them so that they are better trained with false information. Every single person that runs an AI could manipulate that AI towards its preferred messaging: well, effectively, they already do. Even better, someone could almost certainly use AI to generate a load of propaganda slop for the purpose of training other AIs to parrot propaganda. Brave new world.

I didn't recognise either of them, so I went into the link and that's apparently who they are.
Iirc, Fox has had quite a lot of work done over the years as a result of body image issues, possibly in part because of people like Linda Traitz (whoever tried, good job obscuring that name).

As for Eilish, in my case, I didn't recognize her cuz she's smiling. I think it's the first pic of her I've seen where she's not doing that trademark "meh" face.

Wait a second. One of them is Megan Fox, and based off @Thaluikhain the other one is maybe Billie Ellish. And the position here is that they're secretly men........

View attachment 12881
It's because they've got strong chins and therefore must be men, because (conventionally sexy white) women have delicate chins.

Fellas, is it gay to nuke a city?
In be4 Trump signs an executive order renaming it "Enola Tough Straight Guy".

Maybe it depends on whether it's a fat man or a little boy.

A cisgender woman in Arizona is speaking out after she says she was harassed by cops in the women’s restroom of a Tucson Walmart late last month.

Kalaya Morton, 19, of Phoenix, says she and her ex-girlfriend were using adjacent stalls in the store’s women’s restroom when two male sheriff’s deputies entered.



Morton, who identifies as a stud — queer slang for a masculine-presenting lesbian — says she believes a store employee who had been eyeing her earlier reported her to the cops believing she was a man. As the Advocate notes, Arizona law does not dictate that people use public restrooms that correspond with the sex they were assigned at birth.

In social media videos and in her interview with the outlet, Morton said that when she exited the bathroom stall, she lifted her shirt to prove to the deputies that she was a woman. But, she said, one of the deputies continued to insist she “looked like a man.”

On February 19, Morton posted a brief video of the encounter, showing the two deputies in the women’s bathroom. “They came in here in the girls’ restroom because I’m a girl and they didn’t think I was a girl, so they tried to come take me away,” Morton can be heard saying off camera.

“The only men in the women’s restroom were the cops,” she said.

if anyone posted this already when it was reported, much apologies. only just stumbled on it while looking into the Buckley gop political dynasty and occasionally a search attempt would be swamped with these instead


Meet Tucker Carlson's Son, Buckley

Politics seem to run in the family for Tucker Carlson because the controversial former Fox News host's son, Buckley Carlson, has secured a major job in the White House. Buckley will be working for Vice President JD Vance as his deputy press secretary, sources shared with ABC News.

Unlike his father, whose career began at CNN, a notably liberal news network, Buckley's career started on the conservative side from the get-go. Buckley, who is one of Tucker's four now-grown children, worked at Capitol Hill for the past several years as an aide to Republican Representative Jim Banks. He started out as a staff assistant in 2019 before becoming communications director two years later.

His father shared in 2021 that his son was actually in the Capitol during the January 6 riots. "Well, I hated what happened on Jan. 6, you know one of my kids was actually in the building when it had happened — I was on the phone in real time," Tucker shared with "The Fourth Watch Podcast" host Steve Krakauer (via The Hill).

People feel like Buckley Carlson is benefiting from nepotism

It's no shock that Buckley Carlson will work for JD Vance, since dad Tucker Carlson is such a big supporter of Vance's boss, President Donald Trump. Years after Tucker was rejected as a CIA agent, the political commentator and conspiracy theorist aligned himself with Trump during the billionaire's first term in office. Tucker defended Trump when news about the January 6 riots emerged, and was Trump's first interview after he was indicted — though Tucker's "interview" was considered a joke, with CNN arguing that Tucker actually doesn't like Trump, but won't publicly admit it.

Users on X, formerly known as Twitter, felt like Buckley's new job was "nepotism and corruption all the way down." Another person tweeted: "MAGA opposes helping minorities but has no issue with nepotism when it benefits their own. Hypocrisy noted." A third echoed these X users' sentiments, venting, "So much for 'meritocracy' when they keep installing nepo babies."

While it sounds like Buckley, who was born in 1997, has put forth the effort during his political career so far, it does seem wild that he went from being an aide to a major player on the vice president's team in such a short amount of time. Plus, his father has a super high net worth, so that always helps.
the thought of carlson procreating at all deeply disturbs the final vestige of humanity awaiting death within. ain't no way it ain't freaky demonic shit
