Austerity always ends poorly & militarization/war is never popular long term, especially if you are making it harder for ppl to access basic needs & live safe, comfortable lives to fund it. Case in point: Imperial Russia 1917. WW1 caused hyperinflation & the break down of transport systems 1/

Summon the confidence of a mediocre white man and DO IT!

I've learned that my absolute limit for a house guest is one week. Seven days. No more. Two weeks is too much. Our current gues leaves in 3 days. Every now and then he talks about moving his back a day or two to stay longer. How do I tell him NOOOOOO?!

also i need to talk about the canadian federal government for a second. if you guys are seeing headlines talking about conservatives "crossing the aisle" it's not because they've suddenly grown a brain or a spine, it's because carney's liberals are unabashedly conservative

If one is to take all Mark Carney says at face value, then it is inexplicable that the American gestapo can simply imprison Canadians without cause or justification with impunity while Canada says and does nothing.

Well, I got nearly a week of optimism before the universe reminded me that it hates me and I don't deserve good things.

The evidence keeps piling up that our govt's "elbows up' rhetoric was a smoke screen, and we fell for it.

My partner & a friend from out of town went to the West Ed Mall today, on a holiday! Everything is nuts, of course. However, they got a parking spot right up front b/c no one could fit their giant trucks into the small parking space! Hurray for small vehicles in giant truck land!

On the International Transgender Day of Visibility we're celebrating Canadian authors and storytellers shining a light on trans youth and their experiences #TDOV2026 Don't miss Maybe Tomorrow I'll Know by Alex Ritany available April 7th 🍁📚❤️

Kevin got a job!!! A permanent job! I can't explain the weight that has been lifted.

You'd think that Avi Lewis was a hardcore Nazi the way CIJA warbles on about how scared they are, they bring up the fact he's Jewish so late it's in my second screenshot here!

"What we’re seeing is a quieter form of food insecurity, unfolding in real time. And it is largely being misunderstood." montrealgazette.com/opinion/op-e...

Avi Lewis: "We have shoved Canada Post so far into the market mindset that every few months we have a national conversation about why isn't Canada Post making money. Does the ambulance service make money? Do the police services make money? We're talking about a fundamental public service."

Carl is the most handsome dog around.

Say it again with me: Criticisms of Israel as a state is not antisemitic.

Its a wild day. I was asked if I wanted to go tell someone to go fuck themselves to their face. I agreed and was invited to meet them to do so. They wouldn't give a proper description of themselves ("I'm male and taller than a teletubby"). The proceeded to say that I enjoy harassing strangers 1/

First NDP leadership victory in history with a Palestinian flag being waved in the background

We're sanctioning the nation being illegally attacked. Not the nation committing genocide & starting an illegal war. We're truly lost..

Mike Lindell was served with a lawsuit today while doing an interview at CPAC.

This is a perfect example of the way that centrists and neoliberals assume they are entitled to all votes left of centre so they don’t have to honour progressive ideas and instead focus only on the right margin of the party. People could just not show up at all if you keep it up.

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew is accusing U.S. President of fuelling the war in Iran to distract from the millions of documents related to convicted sex offender Epstein, saying the conflict is driving up gas prices for Canadians. #Pinks #EpsteinWar www.ctvnews.ca/world/mideas...

It sure doesn't take long for the centrist knives to come out against Avi Lewis. If Avi follows through, we will have a true leftist party again in this country. Canadians need that. There are a whole lot of us in this country who have been voting for centrists simply to help stave of worse 1/

A politician with the guts to say it: "No American child from the blue collar or the middle class should have to die fighting in Iran. Let the Epstein class fight the Epstein War." - Premier Wab Kinew at the NDP national convention, Winnipeg.

also remember, Elon is a product of South African ,American , and CANADIAN weird fascist racism.

Carney is full of shit. I'm back up to my pre-covid income (perhaps a bit above) and I can tell you that it is not giving the same kind of life I had 6 yrs ago.

"Its too hard to change things. I'll juat continue to work with how things currently are even though everything is crap & shows no signs of getting better, " That's how so many of you sound.

Here's one small trick to save a nation: Invest in the welfare state. Countries exist to serve their people. Canada should remember that. www.davidmoscrop.com/p/one-small-...

The absolute best way to build national unity & keep a nation safe is not to invest in military or cut spending. Its to ensure everyone has a safe, affordable place to live, access to full publicly funded health care, access to affordable education, eliminate food scarcity.

“On darker days, I find myself turning to a more thoroughgoing narrative: that #Trump is the fulfillment of what #America has always been — a self-satisfied nation, granted license by its myths about providence and #exceptionalism to do whatever it wants.” www.nytimes.com/2026/03/26/o...

Why did it take so dammed long to investigate this? Why isnt there more, ongoing media coverage. And this is just the tip of the iceberg foe Smith et al.

Dear Coca-Cola Canada, I hope the courts fuck you over. You deserve it. Sincerely, A Canadian 🇨🇦

In CONFRONTING THE RESURGENT RIGHT, scholars and activists document historical and contemporary manifestations of far-right extremism in Canada and the impacts on specific communities, including 2SLGBTQIA+ people, Indigenous communities, and Muslim women.

One of the things that made me fall in love with @hirsutable.bsky.social is that he is always, & I mean always, excited to see me & spend time with me. Always. I just asked if he wanted to pick me up a half hour early today (as I'm done my work early) & he said: " Perfect. Yes, I want to!" 1/

I'm going to need ppl, especially cis men, to juat stop talking about abortion & abortion rights unless its to back up what women are saying. What Ned said here may be true in theory, but in reality, many states have passed laws that allow prosecution for ANYTHING that could be seen as causing 1/

A classic for Canadians of a certain age 🇨🇦🦾

🚨 Ottawa is laying the groundwork for a Canadian surveillance state — and most people have no idea it's happening. Bill C-22 is back, and it's worse than ever. Please write your MP. This is exactly the kind of bill that quietly passes when people aren't paying attention.

Cuba is a fantastic place, full of a people who have done such incredible things while on the doorstep of a giant country that holds a grudge against them. What is being done to them now is pure cruelty & criminal.

This would be the only song on it: youtu.be/LasrD6SZkZk?...

How much are you willing to pay for faster service? None! I'm not willing to pay for faster service, partially on principle and partly because I can't afford it. Our system should be properly funded and triaged so those who need the care most get it first. Full stop.

Where are the rest of the journalists? Why isnt rhe journalism community speaking up en masse in Rachel's defense? Time after time this country proves that it doesn't care about the truth or women.

TIL that Gilgamesh is a mistranslation. Its is accurately translated as Bilgamesh. His name was Bill, everyone. BILL!!! *yes, I know its debatable if he truly existed or not*
