Irish writer Sally Rooney said she was advised not to enter the U.K. to receive a literary prize this week, for fear of arrest over her support for Palestine Action, which was banned under British terrorism laws.

To paraphase Nigel Tufnel: "How much more dark could this be? And the answer is none. None more dark" 👇 CDC to scrutinize vaccines during pregnancy wapo.st/3K9OBNV Also, the "not antivaxx" rhetoric? They embrace antivaxx beliefs, spread antivaxx lies, & make antivaxx policies... but not antivaxx?

In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's killing, Donald Trump's advisors were sure who was to blame. Whether they actually were didn't, and doesn't, much seem to matter. www.wired.com/story/inside...

RFK Jr will be the cause of the greatest decline in the overall health of Americans. I've been saying it for years, and it is like watching a horror movie in front my eyes, watching our vaccines and health programs dismantled.

Jesus Christ. A standing ovation — from Liberals too — for Charlie Kirk in the Canadian House of Commons. You can (and should) oppose political violence without doing all this, you know.

”It’s puzzling why Carney keeps doing things that alienate his own supporters ... the reason Carney is sitting in the PMO is because progressive swing voters made a strategic choice to lend him their votes — they didn’t lend their vote to appease Trump, impose austerity or roll back workers’ rights“

All eyes on the Global Sumud Flotilla ❤️

Criticizing Israel is not Antisemitism.

Impact of Misinformation on Social Media in the Context of Natural Disasters infodemiology.jmir.org/2025/1/e70413 "...highlights the significant impact of misinformation in the context of natural disasters..." Urgent need for "targeted interventions such as real-time misinformation detection."

Precisely why the nation is doomed. White America lacks the collective will.

read trump's new executive order on domestic military dplymt + vigilante "portal." one of the reasons i am happy to be an independent journalist is so I can say that this is crazy, fascist, brownshirts shit without getting pulled into a meeting with PR for "opening us up to criticism from the right"

Canadian foreign policy: we won't stop Israel from exterminating Palestinians. The news breaks me, every day, multiple times a day. Artist Abeer Eid has lost over 120 people in this genocide. Her painting left me in tears. Do I have a right to weep? We're complicit and yet she embraced me.

When will this stop? We are witnessing another HOLOCAUST.

"If you are not nice to President Trump, he will bring the full force of the state down upon your life. If you are nice to President Trump, he will use the full force of the state to help you." There are words for this.

People protest around the world as Israel continues push to seize Gaza City where famine has been declared.

Politics > science & common sense = BS The barriers put in place to stop access to one of the biggest medical breakthroughs in decades? The doubtmongering lies? Is AB gov full MAGA? Alberta sets COVID-19 vaccine shot price at $100 www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

I think @pattyhajdu.bsky.social fucked up. Big time. Read the room, @mark-carney.bsky.social cause I don’t think people will be happy that you ordered mostly women back to do unpaid work. You’d better have some dynamic speaking points before the milk turns sour

Canadian fentanyl is the new Iraqi WMDs. The fact that we can't find the Canadian fentanyl is proof that Saddam is hiding the Canadian fentanyl from us.

PARIS (AP) — French President Macron announces that France will recognize Palestine as a state.

I wonder how different our world would be if Canadian media could muster the same outrage over the government’s inaction on the forced starvation in Gaza as we do for foreign interference and government debt levels… Breaks my heart, truly. These are choices.

This end of the 33-year satirical Stephen Colbert franchise is unsurprising to anyone who read Project 2025. The Christian White Nationalist policy overhaul forbids even comedic criticism—as this genre has historically been among the most effective cultural criticisms leveled against dictators, etc.

The UFW can confirm farm workers were critically injured yesterday during chaotic raids in Ventura County, CA. Other workers, including US citizens, remain unaccounted for. UFW staff is on the ground supporting impacted families. Our full statement below. ⬇️ 1/

The New York Times was more skeptical of the academic qualifications of a black woman who had secured tenure and become the president of Harvard than they were of a white man who washed out of a grad program with a massive scandal and then became a white nationalist troll.

Trump called for a CNN reporter to be “thrown out like a dog.” His press secretary says he “totally obliterated” Iran’s nuclear program, and also demanded the CNN reporter be fired. The authoritarian nightmare continues.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

Happy solstice everyone, and may you know that the tilt of the Earth and not the distance from the Sun is the reason for the seasons.

The Toronto Sun acknowledges that the Fraser Institute’s ‘Tax Freedom Day’ may be ‘incorrect and misleading’ Experts say Tax Freedom Day is a ‘deeply flawed and highly misleading gimmick’

Crazy. The worst air quality we have ever had in Halton Region. But still nothing compared to the devastation those directly affected by the wildfires in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Be safe, all.

The cancellation of funds for Moderna to develop the bird flu vaccine is a heinous mistake. This will inevitably result in the further spread of disease, loss of life, and economic consequences. Yet another shortsighted, foolish move, puppeted by RFK Jr. to fuel his anti-vax agenda. Despicable.

Tick season is ramping up in Ontario. Nearly 1,800 Lyme disease-spreading ticks were reported across Canada so far this year, over 1,000 of which were in Ontario. Here’s how you can protect yourself from bites — and Lyme disease.

The manner in which sexual assault victims are treated in the courts...and in broader society...is abhorrent. I hope "E.M." is surrounded by support.

Pope Leo XIV: ‘There Couldn’t Be A Better Time To Get The Fuck Out Of America Forever’

These Oval Office media meetings between Trump & various world leaders, even if they don’t turn into unhinged bullying sessions as with Ukraine’s President, are seriously just so stupid. Vanity exercises for Trump the narcissist to ramble about whatever, with global leaders being treated as props.
