Two more from Nem-One, Knucks and Dat Rapper
After a thankfully brief hiatus, Nem-One posted some new content on his blog today. In fact, the new content seems to be the only content available at the moment. But I’m sure there’s much more to come. Check out the video for “If U Can,” a new Nem-One production featuring Knucks the Barbarian. The video […]

How to spin a political embarrassment
I don’t want to appear to be taking sides with the Conservatives in the UK, but I think they’re making some obvious mistakes in the PR department. I know they’ve only been in power since May, but frankly, that’s no excuse for shoddy messaging. For example, a Tory MP named Mark Reckless didn’t take part […]

Link of the Day: Dry Shave
Dry Shave is a strip that ran in the nineties in a number of alternative papers, including our own Eye Weekly. The site doesn’t look like it’s been updated in years, and you won’t find much information there. But the strips are pretty good

Link of the Day: Bo Burnham
The other night, we saw this fellow open for Tim Minchin at a Just for Laughs Festival show at Second City. It was one of the more inventive, literate, and purely vulgar shows I’d seen in a long time. Burnham combines musical comedy, observational humour, spoken word and improvisation in frantic and unpredictable ways, drawing […]

It’s Friday, so here are Beavis and Butt-head watching “Greed” by Varga
Varga was a metal band from Hamilton who put out a couple of decent albums in the mid-nineties. Beavis and Butt-head liked them so much that they decided that “There should be more bands like this… There should be one of these speed metal bands, like, everywhere. Like at the mall, and you know, like… […]

Link of the Day: David Suzuki on climate change
Here’s a little more on the climate change issue, straight from a man who I think can rightly be called the country’s most informed and passionate expert. There’s a lot to read here, including a wealth of information on taking action.

They’re one of the leading bodies calling for an inquiry, and this post follows another in which they throw their support behind the Toronto Police Services Board and its upcoming civilian review. Thanks to Antonia Zerbisias […]

Link of the Day: Brainwashed
If you’re into weird and unconventional music, then there’s always something interesting to read at Brainwashed. Back in the days before it was expected that any band worthy of your attention would have its own website, Brainwashed used to be the best – and often only – source of legitimate information on all kinds of […]

The one good thing about racist sexist homophobes is the hilarity factor
I had lunch on a patio yesterday next to three of the most timid, prejudicial morons you’d ever want to meet. You know the kind of person who’s always got a mental inventory at the ready full of all the things they hate about each individual group of people who are different from them? And […]

Link of the Day: Dirty Oil Sands
To be honest, I just found out about this site a few moments ago. Having already linked to unseatharper.ca, and then to WTF TORY, I was all set to point you to a third site this morning at whoisharper.org. But that site doesn’t seem to exist anymore, and the domain name currently redirects to Dirty […]
