What? Expect me to be celebrating?
Nah. I don't really care. I think it would just be like petty nationalism, to be honest.

In honour of my country's birthday, I present these songs for your listening pleasure:

And to all my followers, readers, and anyone else who happens upon this page, Happy Canada Day!
And what a weird one it is. The virus situation is going on, the perpetually offended want to cancel the holiday, real heavy shit is happening in the US, and everyone is losing their minds...
All that said, not gonna let it get me down, so here’s an update from this dumbass.
Hello everyone! My name is SuperKamek, but chances are you probably already knew that, and today we'll be talking about Canadian history and all of its historical historical-ness!
It's Canada's 150th birthday today which means 150 years ago today, Canada was signed as an official country and not just a colony owned by the British. If it wasn't for that fateful day, I would never be calling myself a Canadian and I most certainly wouldn't have that Canadian accent.
I think... It's hard to tell you have an accent when you speak that accent your whole life.
Hey all, first off, Happy Canada Day! Cuz c'mon who doesn't love a plucky little country who manages to not be absorbed by the blob that is the USA.
Secondly, have you ever thought that your country has the lock on weird bands and songs?
Well, even if you haven't here's Canada's entries. Including toon band Prozzak, our answer to Hanson The Moffats, and a group of guys singing about oral sex to a minor.
Today is the anniversary of the Constitution Act, which united the original three colonies of British North America and began the process of a national "budding off" from the mother country.
But being the contrarian that I am, I would like to start a brand-new tradition for the occasion: The Playing of the Song That Would be the Anthem if I Were in Charge.
IN WHICH I SLEEP ALL DAY BUT WRITE NOW
Happy (belated) Canada Day, all ya hosers! 🇨🇦 In honour of the occasion, here's The Band.
See, all of them were Canadian except drummer Levon Helm, who hailed from my home state. Anyway:
First off, Happy Canada Day to everyone! I was late to loving my country but I really do love living here. Also, to my American friends, Happy 4th of July, early one that is :) I've yet to find a video that better describes the relationship between our two nations better than this one from the 2010 Winter Olympics..
. . . we play one of the most beloved renditions of the Canadian national anthem ''O Canada'' committed to film and dedicate it to our Canadian followers.
Anyway, in other news, I'm a little sad to say that I haven't worked on anything substantial since my last post. I have no excuse, but I will get to it... someday.
Also, yes, that is a Pyramid Head figure, and it is fucking awesome.
That is all.
Got a few updates to share. The first of which is that I've been slowly but surely working on a new chapter for "Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children". Let me just say, working on Zecora's dialogue is very difficult. You really have to think about context, rhythm, and structure just to make sure what she says not only makes flawless sense, but still can sit in a regular conversation. This does mean
