I wrote about how Danielle Smith took a good, hard look at the existential damage that could be done to Alberta and to Canada by a separatism campaign and she decided that one thing mattered above all: Danielle Smith. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/opi...

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 323 # 322 contd So bumblebee queens are bigger than workers and tend to have longer tongues. But the research found that these longer tongues have relatively less hairs meaning less efficiency at capturing the liquid nectar! #bees #nature #science

Heartbreaking but important story. TW suicide.

Petition to oust Poilievre out of Stornway & save Canadians $$$ He’s been living expense free in that mansion. If CPC want to force a rejected/no security clearance career politician on the rest of 🇨🇦 then he shouldn’t be living in a mansion paid for by our tax dollars. Sign & pass it along #CDNpoli

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

MSNBC CHANGES NAME TO MS NOW?

An excellent article on the current state of “conservativism” in the United States and how we got to this point. It also points out that the right is no longer willing to play by the rules of democracy and likely never will again, Trump or no Trump. thomaszimmer.substack.com/p/why-the-ex...

I don't think this brilliant maneuver by Mark Carney gets enough credit:

Happy St. Stupid's Day to all who celebrate.
