What we are saying is that AI will be responsible for job loss, democratic erosion, and a threat to humanity itself AND it also sucks

he clearly won bronze, this is not up for debate

If you don't live in Alberta, let me explain Alberta politics to you. 1. *long sigh* 2. *incoherent mumbling* 3. *muffled tears* 4. *long sigh* Thank you for listening.

I love you Bluesky, never change 😍

There's a legendary story in my family about the time when my uncle, as a young teenager, said to my grandfather: "We're reading Romeo and Juliet in school. I don't think Shakespeare's that great." My grandfather replied: "Son, that's not you judging Shakespeare. That's Shakespeare judging you."

I know this is not remotely the biggest issue here but the rise of RFK JR’s pants alone is grounds for impeachment in my books

To give you an idea of how deranged the UK has become about gender stuff, here's Enid Blyton - the absolute avatar of classic English conservatism and a huge fan of racist "gollywogs" - casually describing a gender non-conforming kid in the 1940s and having their friends be totally cool with it.

Late to this article but I have a new hero @heymrsbond.com www.npr.org/2026/01/28/n...

Student: should I use a semicolon in this sentence? Me, yelling and flailing papers: The Dow is over 50,000 right now! The S&P at almost 7,000! That's what we should be talking about!

UM @info.radio-canada.ca AND @patriceroy.bsky.social YOU PUT THE WRONG WOMAN ON SCREEN AS THE MASS SHOOTER OFF THE TOP OF YOUR SHOW!!!!! My GOD. You need to retract and apologize NOW!!!

I miss the Post Reports Podcast

kind of funny there are prob 1,000 major US musicians and every time conservatives need to put up a music artist to counter a mainstream narrative, they put up kid rock. "ok here's kid rock again" for the next 30 years, an octogenarian man in jean shorts rapping something from the 1990s

A Trump Haiku: Bad Bunny scares me so bad, but even then I Still won't watch Kid Rock

Wasn’t quite sure what to expect when @bnanza.bsky.social bought tickets to go see Bruce McCulloch but it was a great night - funny, dark, touching at times, dark. #blessed

I saw Bruce McCulloch's show "Dark Purple Slice" last night. It was 100% Brucio: it was incredibly dark, piercingly sweet, and consistently funny. Get to see it if you can: bruciomcculloch.com

I expected the cuts would be bad but I'm honestly stunned and sickened seeing how many great journalists the Washington Post just lost. People who nailed huge investigations, documented war zones, exposed horrific crimes, dropped all at once for failures they did not cause.

THIS IS WHY WE CHOOSE THE BEAR

When anyone from SCTV dies it’s like 30 people have died. Every character they created was as alive as anyone else you’ve ever met.

I’m going to speak in Moira voice all weekend in tribute ❤️💔

Jesus Christ. While this post is very astute, it hurts my eyes, it's just a galactic collision of the very, very worst things

I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that JD Vance tried to "soften" things in Minneapolis. He blamed the left for ICE violence and called the 5-year-old's father an "illegal alien" even though he's lawfully applying for asylum. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/2056...

Just on the Milburn thing, I'm always amused by the insistence that we're now overdiagnosing autism etc because back in my day none of that existed... "My Dad was perfectly happy and normal with his HO scale model railway based on an imagined version of a Sheffield Metro."

It always comes back to Covid.

Smith asserted Trump “willfully” broke the law. trib.al/0Kzv1p6 “Grand juries in two separate districts reached this conclusion ... Rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power."

no one is coming to save us it was a real hard pill to swallow the first time as trans person, it's even harder now living under siege here in Minnesota but in both situations, we keep us safe

Sauer: "That's an elite opinion. Why aren't we asking the untrained and the poorly informed about their big feelings?"

Dear neighbor, We are seeing an increase in immigration enforcement and federal agents across South Minneapolis. This includes the sighting of Bovino at 34th and Cedar. There’s definitely an uptick compared to the last few days. 1/

*tears rolling down my face* please sir, take a tangent in your important Davos speech to talk about Rolex watches

God bless Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney for saying what needed to be said in his Davos speech.

The first two times I posted this essay about why I am a proud Canadian, and a proud Albertan, so many people tried to read it all at once that it crashed the @albertaviews.bsky.social website! But in light of recent news, I felt compelled to post it again. #Alberta #cdnpoli #abpoli #ableg #Canada

Ok, this is not remotely important, and everything is terrifying, but I did a little check-in on the Trump Store, and lemme tell ya, it's even stupider and more unhinged than ever A thread:

Jesus fucking Christ

Good morning, minneapolis. I love you.

I wonder which of Trump's neuroses are going to be triggered by this: The one that's going to make him swell with pride because he finally has the physical gold prize in his hands, regardless of how he got it OR The one that is going to make him inwardly seethe because it's a woman's hand-me-down

I have done a lot of thinking about this, and my humble opinion is that although One Battle After Another is likely to keep taking home the big awards, Sinners is better in every way I can think of

The Minnesota Attorney General's Office is asking residents to share information about the actions of federal agents in Minnesota, including those from the Department of Homeland Security, that have affected them or someone close to them.
