Credit to pb07canadian Thank you and much respect to all the firefighters risking their lives every day to put out the fires in Canada 🔥🍁🇨🇦🌲💪🏻

In 2001, Walter Cronkite appeared on the David Letterman show and shared his thoughts.

This is one of America’s greatest ideas, told by one of our greatest actors. Again: 250 to 250 is tremendous.

Thanks to @hcrichardson.bsky.social for writing about the proposed OMB rule that will put ALL federal grant making under the control of political commissars. There are lots of ways to take action to stop this. See a few actions below in replies. 1/ heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/june-27-2026

l'Il add to today’s Covid discourse that I’m noticing a lot more young people in my cardiac ICU. I can’t say definitively that Covid infections are driving the change, but the lit is clear and the trend is new and very obvious.

If you’re not hip to Heather Cox Richardson you absolutely need to sort that shit out.

Agreed.

Fuck Sportsnet.

A lot of noise, misinformation and daily disaster headlines of late. Stay the course. "There's much forward guidance to be found in our shared history." youtu.be/uk2TZwkhi4E

In new video, Atlas retells how, from within the White House, he orchestrated the meeting that became the Great Barrington Declaration with allies Kulldorff & Bhattacharya (+ a libertarian thinktank) to manufacture support for Trump's unpopular & unscientific preferred approach to the Covid pandemic

Nathan J Robinson: Instead of discussing how Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire, we should talk about how he killed hundreds of thousands of people through his dismantling of food and medical aid to poor countries www.currentaffairs.org/news/how-elo...

Yes, AI sucks, in a multitude of critically important ways. No one except a literal handful of sociopaths wanted what AI is likely to become. I’d say it’s orders of magnitude worse than nuclear weapons. But there is truly no way to stop it. America, China, Russia, N Korea & Iran are racing to…

Dread Pirate Roberts Terrorising Ontario Residents With Offers Of PPE

This is the way forward. Medicine's management class wants control without accountability, which is why PH and IPC guidance vacillate between half-assed opinions, minimizing and "oops, too late, so sad". Engineering, science, OHS etc just need to bypass medical authorities and get the job done.

This follows the murder of the Harm Principle in 2022.

Why Has No One Figured Out How To Stop Airborne Pathogen Transmission? Not That There Is Any, Of Course.

Mainstream TV news has shifted from “inform the public” to “don’t offend power.” The worst part is the tone: everything is delivered like a calm weather report while the country is on fire. These past anchors understood that journalism is supposed to apply pressure. Not host a brunch panel.

FAFO America. Beyond words.

‘Competence Porn’:) It’s so fucking refreshing to watch intelligent, compassionate people working their asses off for the benefit of complete strangers.

This is Fitz and June. Fitz just got here and thinks this place is pretty great. June was here first and thinks it's time to return Fitz. 13/10 for both (TT: muester)

Absolutely incredible. NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone. Watch with sound on.

I will never understand the thought process of anyone who travels to the US now, for any reason. Not the ones on holiday, not the ones on business, not to visit family (unless its a hail mary trip to get them out) and not for any other reason. You guys flying into Berlin in 1939, like its normal.

How Much Brain Do You Really Need

At the time of the incident, 2 things were apparent. First, DFT is a coward. He’s not capable of responding to being shot in the head as he did on the stage that day. Second, there’s no way a US Secret Service detail is going to immediately stand him up as they did, exposing him to further fire.

Wins my internet for the day.

CBC news just closed the show with 2 photos. One of Carney, looking like he’d just achieved a majority & spent the day playing hockey with the Finnish PM & the Ottawa pro women’s hockey team. The other was of PP, looking like, PP. Perpetually angry and worried he may have just shit himself. 😂😂
