Parasocial: psychological relationship experienced by audience in mediated encounters with performers in mass media

@stphnmaher Sometimes people resign public office the reason they resign any job @stphnmaher . They’re tired & they’ve got a line on a better paying gig.

Has @DaisyGrp been hired as a spokesperson or ambassador working on behalf of international Jewry?

Im a Strokes fan & I’ve found no mention of “why” Valensi is missing live performances. Does your firm have some relevant research?

1. Guitarist in band is part Jewish.
2. Lead singer goes on antisemitic rant.
3. Guitarist drops out of band's shows.
4. Antisemitism has consequences. https://t.co/a4KxNjFm03

@TristinHopper Catholicism is a having a minor resurgence in popularity at a very grassroots level @TristinHopper . This is largely fuelled by men seeking something traditional, but not rigidly right-wing.

If @dunkindonuts locations are largely staffed by women from Charlestown, Mass they’ll win this easily. Irish-American comedians w/ podcasts laid groundwork for exporting the Boston cultural institution of hot coffee+fast internet.

Times like these show the downside to @CBCNews choosing conservative pundits based on acceptability in progressive circles.

Conservative voices in public broadcasting should be selected based on street cred in conservative circles. #cdnpoli

[Cole Hogan @colewhogan]

Every national pundit panel discussing Alberta separatism should have an Albertan present at the bare minimum. Conservatives currently living in Alberta or those with strong connections are preferable to those who don't live in Alberta or have minimal connections to the province beyond a shared party membership.

@adamhuras The narrative of a band “Rebels” inside the Tory caucus is catnip to overworked journalists. @adamhuras has anyone in media looked at that division searching for examples of circumstantial ethics, on both sides?

[Darcy Wallace @DukeFromMoncton]

The good news for @DanielAllainNB is that Blaine Higgs has never lifted a finger to advance a political career, other than the career of Blaine Higgs. Higgs has never been a party builder or a movement builder @adamhuras . #nbpoli

[Adam Huras @adamhuras]

NEW from me...
Former Premier Blaine Higgs says the conservative movement must “redefine” itself to lay out exactly what its political brand actually stands for.

That’s while seemingly taking a veiled shot at Daniel Allain...

Massive respect to @KNEECAPCEOL as ‘FENIAN’ looks set for a huge week in the UK charts. A No.1 would mark the first time an Irish language album has topped the chart.

Support the album: https://t.co/mg9uraUPeJ

Baseball can sometimes feel a little boring. This play was absolutely the highlight of the week when it happened. We definitely need to see more of this. 💯😲🤣

@mattgurney You aren’t moved by the fact that Nenshi opens every conversation by mentioning that he wears purple socks @mattgurney ? You don’t think partisan undergarment colour keeps avg. Albertans awake at night?

@kinsellawarren Warren would have been a star on the yeshiva basketball team.

@calgarygrit @KyleHarrietha Irish is a great political brand.

@calgarygrit @KyleHarrietha Opposition to this gerrymandering needs to be more direct. Less lawyerly or academic language on the issue. IMO progressives lose on winnable issues, like this one, bc they won’t speak in memes & infographics @calgarygrit . Humour is a great tool.

[Darcy Wallace @DukeFromMoncton]

@garry_keller @BenWoodfinden @Anthony__Koch These messages aren’t what I’m seeing in my own timelines from Poilievre & the Conservative party @garry_keller .

Im mainly seeing the following:

1) Majority gov’t achieved through shady backroom deals
2) By-elections required for floor crossers

[Darcy Wallace @DukeFromMoncton]

@KenBoessenkool CPC messaging around Liberal majority falls flat bc aggressively normal Canadians don’t hate Mark Carney @KenBoessenkool . Pierre Poilievre’s team have a message that would work magic if Lena Dunaham were leading the Liberal Party of Canada.

[Darcy Wallace @DukeFromMoncton]

@garry_keller @BenWoodfinden @Anthony__Koch Garry, Conservative messaging around Carney’s majority would be a great strategy if Mark Carney was unpopular. But Mark Carney is popular among aggressively normal Canadians. You’re trying to convince Canadians of something they don’t believe at this time.
