When the election is long past and you still don't know who your councillor is, please remember it's because Danielle Smith's base doesn't like electronic vote tabulators (which are accurate, have been used for decades, and saved time and money). www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

“We are all, how you say, trying to find zee guy who did zis.”

As much as Smith tried today to spin the children’s medication debacle as being the result of former premiers or leadership races or byelections… It was all her idea. How do we know? She said so. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

"No Kings" illustrates the uncomfortable truth about US politics: That the > 50% of white US people that want to turn the US into a white ethnostate (their words) is a lot of people. But the > 40% of white US people that don't want this, plus > 50% of brown people and > 90% of Black people, is more.

I thought the corporate tax cut and low minimum wage was supposed to do that all on their own 🤔 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

A one-paragraph definition of Doctorow's "enshitification" for those who were unclear on the concept. (For more, see my paywalled, virus-ridden essay.)

Trump’s defensive structure is extremely primitive, so it isn’t surprising scatology would be part of it. He is a man-toddler, without the playfulness, charm, humor, or curiosity of actual toddlerhood.

Dutch intelligence suspends sharing arrangements with the US after concluding that high level intel was routinely being shared by the White House with their friends in the Kremlin. www.volkskrant.nl/binnenland/n...

Editor1: How should we handle kinda demented behavior from the leader of the free world, styling himself as a king dumping shit on his detractors? Editor2: Mild bemusement? Editor1: See that’s why you have the CSJ degree

See the difference? 👀 #NoKings

The Trump shit video is basically this, but I will reiterate that if a Dem is critical of conservative voters it’s a generational scandal and when Republican pols literally post themselves shitting on their opposition virtually the entire elite politics and media class treats it as fine and normal

Lmao 'test of ceasefire' is funny. They broke the ceasefire. AP has gone from sanewashing and passive voice to outright not understanding the definition of words in the dictionary.

Nothing says “love of country” like hating half the people who live in it.

Nice piece from @daniellebochove.bsky.social on Mark Carney's ahem...less than stellar climate record featuring quotes from yours truly.

A lot of regular MAGA filth followed Trump administration accounts to Bluesky. Their only purpose is to troll, to trigger libs. Block them on sight, starve them of oxygen, let them scream into the void.

Coast Guard bought Kristi Noem two private jets (I guess if one breaks down). Cost: $172 million. Is that what you call draining the swamp?

"I hear very few people are gonna be there" -- Donald Trump, 10/15/25

5 yrs after the start of the worst health crisis in memory, there is a national conversation waiting to be had about the roles of the individual, society and the state in such a crisis. What is my responsibility to myself and to my community, and what is the responsibility of the state towards us?

“You can win elections by tacking to the middle; lots of people have. But you can also win elections by staking a moral position and convincing people to agree with you. You can earn support by demonstrating what is important to you instead of just being determined to nod along with what you hear.”

I just thought of something else: There will be people here in Alberta in a year’s time who don’t know it yet. Job relocations, coming to study, all sorts of reasons. So we’re going to welcome them here but also say, “Since you didn’t pre-order in December 2025, no vaxxes for you!”???

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress nearly a month ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in. Why the delay? Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

The important thing to remember about Prentice trying to distract Albertans with a new license plate design is that his party was crushed in the 2015 election. #ableg #abpoli

My favorite moments at the Detroit, Michigan No Kings rally 1/ @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social

DC J6: 1.500 arrests DC No Kings: zero Tell me again which side is violent?

Conclusion?? Conclude by sending this fucker to prison. www.nbcnews.com/world/united...

A handful of maga Chuds have shown up on my Instagram post from today's march. Their talking point appears to be "Um, ACTUALLY, there isn't a king, so neener neener, libs!" They really are the dumbest people to ever exist, and they LOVE their white Jesus.

Just arrived on the scene at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in South Portland. Here less than 10 minutes when agents charged out of the facility and used a pale yellow gas that caused tears and coughing in crowd members. Also shot munitions at those retreating.

Im dead 😂😂😂

World War 2 veterans, the original antifa, took part in the nationwide protests against the fascist Trump regime. #3E #NoKings #50501Movement #indivisible #wearetheflood

Per CNN, the White House has just issued a two-word response to what may be the largest day of protest in US history—and those two words perfectly encapsulate why No Kings Day exists. The response from would-be King Donald to outrage over his destruction of our traditions and norms is, "Who cares?"

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Still holds.

Solidly researched. Evidence based. Incontrovertible. "An astounding 90% of autistic children consumed either breast milk or formula...ignoring potential confounders, control groups and statistical significance." Hats off to @integralanswers.bsky.social for the fine work.

There are too many of us to ignore. #NoKings

#nokings Portland frog brigade

Please tell me a First Amendment lawyer is willing to step up here and defend this woman.

incredible photo

If your newspaper doesn't have no kings as the top us story today, throw it in the trash and don't look back

cops tackling and marching off with a giant penis, Kristi Noem menacing a chicken she swears is antifa, feds pepper-spraying a frog ridicule is an extremely effective protest tactic and foil for authoritarianism

Even though I'm partial to our NYC crowd, I will admit that seeing this visual was the one that really got me today. It's just so damn impressive.

Every public health expert - “We need to reduce barriers to entry for vaccines and increase availability!” UCP - “So you’re saying we should open up a month and a half window to rebook vaccines for a year from now?” Experts - *Sob uncontrollably* #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

“We don't have any answer to the central question which is, were surgical procedures and medical equipment, was there overpayment for those things?” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

In December of 2022, the Govt of Canada offered 96,000 bottles of Australian Tylenol (the real brand) to Alberta. It wasn’t AHS that refused. It was the govt, saying that wouldn’t be enough. How many bottles were actually used in hospitals? 9,000. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

b-b-b-but i was reliably told this was a gathering of antifa's top terrorists. how could this be?????????

Want the flu or COVID shots for NEXT year? The booking site says to get your pre-order in before December 15th... of this year.

“Someone” walked away with $70 million from AHS — and the only thing the Premier said is “wasn’t me!” #ableg #abpoli
