Behind the cowboy hats and grievance about equalization lies something far more serious: foreign influence, backed by the Trump government, aimed to use legitimate frustrations as a crowbar to split Canada and hand our oil, water, and minerals to the USA. raybwilliams.medium.com/the-fifth-co...

Years ago in another life I gave a guest lecture at The Hague warning “AI weapons” could be invoked to remove accountability for war crimes from the chain of command. I said “there are no autonomous weapons, only unsupervised ones,” and sadly it seems I was cooking with that one

“if you won’t let us use your product to spy on Americans and kill without supervision we will single-handedly destroy your business by fiat” is the single most authoritarian anti-business action I can ever remember any administration taking

oh so now i have to go through a whole day?

Incredible gold medal game! Congrats Team USA - well fought.

Good morning Canada! Let's go!

Donald Trump will HATE this ad when he sees it during the Olympic hockey final. Let’s win gold. And then win back our country. LFG USA 🏅🔥🇺🇲

Someone a decade+ younger than I asked me if I saw the Matrix in theaters and how cool that must have been

Anyone who's still insisting that Trump is not a racist at this point just needs to be scorned and shunned. Don't bother debating with them, just tell them with as much contempt as you can muster that they're in a fucking cult and they should be embarrassed.

There are so many more of us than there are of them.

@littlekittybigcity.bsky.social Is incredible! Hilarious brilliant writing! Adorable platforming + puzzling! The sound design! The perfect game for just chilling. Highly recommend!

Holy shit Colbert wtf

today I saw a dad at costco deploy a high-risk “fine, I’ll buy you this basketball hoop if you can make this shot” maneuver to his young son only for the boy to swish from like twenty feet away. net barely moved

I just joined the @quitgpt boycott. OpenAI's president was the biggest donor in Trump's Super PAC's year-end report. It's time to quit. Join us: quitgpt.org // #QuitGPT

Super Mario World is the greatest game of all time. It's perfect.

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

Extremely disappointing to learn the world is being corrupted and wrecked by the biggest fucking losers. Epstein. Trump. Musk. All these assholes are just so pathetic.

kid-in-the-brown-hoodie is a whole-ass ideology

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

another guy who never protested before radicalized to the point of tears by watching masked ICE agents terrify children in his neighborhood the Republicans are not ready or mentally capable of comprehending the backlash they have generated

Everyone in the world comes to get married at the NYC Marriage Bureau. Last week, the Mayor stopped by to officiate a few of those ceremonies.    Thank you to all the couples who shared their joy with us. Happy Valentine's Day, New York.     Watch the full video at Youtube.com/nycmayorsoffice

Fascist regimes toast as if time belongs to them. Mussolini hung upside down. Ceaușescu faced the wall. Hitler took himself out with a bullet. Power swears it is eternal even when the rot begins to surface. The party always ends. It always ends. Do not kneel. This too shall pass.

based on my wife’s reaction to Swarovski Shrek, this is the last time i’ll do a $750 bit

What's a good place to anonymously discuss an employer? Feels like we need something like that.

Sometimes very hard not to feel like the rest of the country has abandoned Minnesota. We STILL have ICE everywhere. Our schools, businesses, and economy are in profound crisis. But without Bovino here throwing tear gas, much of the country seems to not care at all what’s being done to us.

Hey America, all your leaders and rich people should be in jail. Seriously, figure your shit out. They're criminals.

Incredible thread! Thanks @beckyhammer.bsky.social !

Another high scoring Super Bowl!

Learned today that Twizzlers are mostly corn. I should have known. @swiftonsecurity.com told us of the wonders of corn years ago.

Gift article. An excellent read on how the rest of the world is joining Canada #CanadaStrong #FuckTrump #canpoli The Globalization of Canadian Rage www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/o...

The first big fascist wave in Germany and Italy was driven by the humiliation and suffering of WW1. Our current wave of American fascism is largely driven by rich guys who want it to be illegal for you to laugh at them.

Is anybody ever gonna take a step back and realize the "Russia Russia Russia" people — derided as lunatic wine moms — were actually underplaying the foreign influence stuff, and the loud people who kept insisting it was all fake are now saying Jeffrey Epstein was kind of a cool guy?

hard to think of a better example of "you may not believe in class war, but billionaires know they're in one" than this

Canada and the United States were steadfast allies, until one belligerent fool threw it all away. Stephen Marche on the death of a friendship. (Gift article.) #canada #cdnpoli www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/o...

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “For better or for worse, what people most admire in Canada, certainly more than success, is the capacity to endure,” Stephen Marche writes. “What liberal democracies need now, more than ever, is the sheer will to go on, without nostalgia for what once was.”

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

I hate this but Jeffrey Epstein is evil Forrest Gump

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

2026 is going to be a great year to run for office. Filing deadlines are coming up fast -- in most places, it's not too late to get on the ballot. We'll help you get started. runforwhat.net

An article about this political moment, the role of journalism, and the very real dangers of state repression—told as a cheeky guide to buying a gas mask. I’ve been sending it to everyone; it both delights and horrifies me. Well done @sarahjeong.bsky.social www.theverge.com/policy/86857...

Abolish ICE and fire all agents is the moderate position.

You can’t tell me we have a functioning economic system when the richest man in human history is one of the most profoundly stupid people in human history

I’ve seen enough. It’s time to arrest Jeffrey Epstein!
