ICE shooting that innocent woman in the face while she was doing what they told her and trying to leave is what the Americans would do to Canadians, only a thousand times worse, if they ever invaded and took over.

I never got to make a "see you next year!" joke to anyone and I'm seriously disappointed.

Grok is spreading Holocaust denial over on Twitter.

Comedy is illegal on Bluesky.

I just blocked the White House and unfollowed two people who were following it.

banning Link is such a stupid fucking move like who do you think actually built your userbase

For the safety of trans people in Bluesky, BAN JESSE SINGAL.

The Saudi government murdered Jamal Khashoggi seven years ago today. His editor @karenattiah.bsky.social wrote this two years ago.

Hey Alberta, I understand you want a new oil pipeline through Northern BC. I will oppose it every step of the way unless you give me a few conditions: 1) remove your silly moratorium on renewables such as wind and solar. 2) an emissions cap (NOT a production cap) on all oilsands development.

"I'm going to reclaim the R-word!" *proceeds to use it exclusively as an insult*

The American political system is just two right-wing parties calling each other "communist."

Word on the grape vine is that something tragic happened in Alberta, but no details yet.

Apropos of nothing in particular, here's Walt Disney's testimony to HUAC in 1947, where he named employees he believed were communists, condemned labor unions, and accused "commie" groups, including the League of Women Voters, of smearing him. 🗃️ archive.org/details/walt...

As a lifelong Republican, I didn’t know what to make of Charlie Kirk. I’ve since spent several lunch breaks watching his debates (FULL videos) and have realized that he was a Nazi. I don't like Nazis. Well, I’m crossing the aisle—I just registered as a Democrat. Anyone else?

Kathleen Stock, the transphobe, wrote a defense of the R-word, because of course she did. 🤦‍♂️

People like this are going to be shocked when TV becomes bland and milquetoast. Fascist art is always the most boring, uninspiring, and worthless shit.

“I think it's worth it. It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal." - Charlie Kirk

Let me get this straight: when the right thought the shooter was a Black lesbian disabled trans woman they were like "DEATH PENALTY" and "CIVIL WAR," but now that we know the shooter is a white cis straight guy, they're all like "pray for him" and "Charlie would have converted him." That's evil.

No doubt in my mind, so I'm happy to join the club.

I heard "Roar" while I was half asleep and my first immediate thought was "oh, it's Justin Trudeau's girlfriend." 😳

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Why would Awkwafina's parents name her after a brand of bottled water?

Texting with @dre5922.bsky.social, and he made an interesting point: what if the Charlie Kirk shooting is a distraction from the Trump pedo claims? They want to whip the right into a frenzy so they can ignore the Epstein allegations because the release of the Birthday Book is too hard to ignore.

Mark Carney is a progressive conservative, which is something I thought didn't exist anymore. Very conservative economic policies with quite progressive social policies. I don't agree with it, but it might be closer to Canada's natural state.

David Eby going full mask-off as racist and anti-immigrant is sure depressing.

I'm saddened to hear that Graham Greene has passed away. What a legendary actor. He was a consummate, Oscar nominated character actor.

Check out this absolutely amazing euphemism for sex.

I like to ask people what their favourite movie is, and a surprising number of people answer Dumb and Dumber.

Fuck Air Canada, #solidarity with the flight attendants and CUPE forever.

I think the thing I hate most about "A.I." is that it used to be a magical science fiction concept, now it's a base marketing term for the plagiarism machine that rots peoples' brains.

It's funny reading about how Vegas is empty, people are avoiding the US, and the US tourism industry has lost billions of dollars since I was just in Jasper and it was packed. There were people from Canada, the US, and all over the world. That's despite the extensive forest fire damage.

I can't take anything a "leftist" with a blue check mark says on Twitter. My dude, you voluntarily mark yourself for capital, why would anything you say mean anything to me?

Happy Birthday to Terry Fox, who would have been 67 today.

The judge in the Hockey Canada case needs to be impeached or disbarred or debenched, or whatever we do to bad judges in Canada. I forget the technical term.

Just saw a list of the Godfather movies ranked in order of worst to best, and it's literally just 3. The Godfather, part III 2. The Godfather, part II 1. The Godfather Thanks, insightful list.

It's hilarious that Elmo has turned Grok into a mini-me, and it immediately went full Nazi and Linda Yaccarino resigned because it had sexual fantasies about her.

We need a new Butlerian Jihad.

Please don't call disabled people "differently abled." We're not "differently abled," we're disabled.

Canadian Conservative YouTubers Claim They Were Offered Russian Money to Fund Their Videos. Their Strange Story Raises Serious Questions. pressprogress.ca/canadian-con...

“Not tolerating” diversity. Not tolerating equity. Not tolerating INCLUSION. If you “don’t tolerate” those things, you should be hounded out of every academic institution, gov’t position, civil service job, and shunned by society in general. Tarring and feather in a public square would be good too.

I have endured his scurrilous attacks for years. He has sued me for racketeering — and lost. He has unleashed his right-wing army of online trolls. Since his reelection, he has threatened me, defamed me and singled me out by name in two executive orders. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-t...

The guy who plays Krennic is a noticeably better actor between Rogue One and Andor. Not to say he's ever a bad actor, he's not, he just plays the character with more emotion and nuance in Andor.

I read this book when I was an incredibly horny teenager, and it was one of the least sexy books I have ever read. There are a LOT of valid criticisms of The Handmaid's Tale, but dismissing it as "smut" is not one of them.
