Yup. "Tribalism" - and it's destroying our country. These people wake up every day thinking "how can I support my team at any cost of credibility?" rather than thinking independently about individual issues and forming an opinion.

Standard Time’s purpose is to tell where the sun is positioned in the sky, give or take 30 minutes.
ALT “Rick and Morty” meme. A small robot (labeled “Daylight Saving Time”) asks “What is my purpose?” Rick answers “You lie about the sun’s position in the sky to trick people into setting alarms an hour early every morning.” The robot looks downward at itself and responds, “Oh, my God.”

Americans are ready for permanent Standard Time, not permanent Daylight Saving Time.

Yesterday, I spoke on the House Floor about the dangers of enacting permanent daylight saving time and why my bill, the Sunshine for Our Kids Act, is the better solution.

Zelensky : "My congratulations to Montenegro."
...
Zelensky : "F*CK!"
Congratulations to Montenegro - today we took a big step towards your accession to the European Union.
The decision to establish the Working Party to draft the new Accession Treaty is a key milestone.
For the first time since 2013, the EU starts the clock for the next enlargement.

Chatted with circadian rhythm expert Michael Antle about Alberta's move to permanent DST.
He says he was the UCP's first call during their consultation process- but that they ultimately ignored the evidence that says permanent standard time is better for our bodies.
“Social jetlag is the mismatch between what Danielle wants you to do and what your body wants you to do.”—Michael Antle
He says year-round daylight time in Alberta could worsen that mismatch, raising risks of diabetes & cardiovascular disease.

Lots of weird takes on the Hungarian election result from both left and right here.
Peter Magyar is a socially conservative immigration restrictionist who wants to cut taxes and double the defence budget. He criticized Orban for admitting too many guest workers, and wants to increase Hungary's already generous pro-natal incentives.
On virtually every issue, his platform is well to the right of centre, by European standards.
His foreign policy is to end Orban's alliance with Putin, remove the Hungarian veto on EU loans to Ukraine, normalize relations with the European Union while opposing more Euro integration, and strengthen relations with Eastern Europe's anti-Russian governments, e.g. Poland.
His election was not a sudden shift to the left, but a rejection of Orban's corruption, the failure of his interventionist / statist economic policies, and the humiliation of his relationship with Putin.

The provincial government has just imposed the largest property tax increase on Calgarians in history.
In 2026, Alberta is increasing its share of your property tax bill by 21.05%. Nearly 42% of every residential property tax dollar now goes directly to the Province, and the City is legally required to collect this massive tax increase.
For a typical $706,000 home:
🔺 Province: +$339
🔹 City: +$49
We did our work to restrain spending while focusing on safety and core infrastructure. The City’s increase is 1.81%.
The total increase is about $388, with the overwhelming majority driven by the Province.

Las Vegas has been cannibalizing itself for years, long before Trump returned to office. Beloved hotels were torn down in favor of soulless glass towers, free parking vanished, resort fees skyrocketed, and even basic conveniences like an empty fridge were removed unless you paid extra. The city abandoned its core promise of excess and escape, replacing it with corporate greed and micromanaged misery. Buffets disappeared, comps were gutted, and every corner now screams surcharge. Vegas didn’t get destroyed by politics or pandemics—it strangled itself trying to become a luxury mall with slot machines. The magic died because they killed it.
