At least they’re not putting on fake smiles and sucking up to Canada to loosen our wallets. How’s that potash working on your fields? And the water? Be a shame if something happened to it.

I’m just up here in Canada enjoying fresh fruits and veggies without worrying about 💩. Because, you know, they have food inspectors and rules here.

This has never been a joke. Imagine the unmitigated self-centredness of whining USians telling us to stop boycotting them.

Jerry Mander: "It's time to make science a thing again."

Canada should retaliate by putting a 50% tax on our energy products, critical minerals, potash, fish exports to US "Only energy products, critical minerals, potash, fish, and goods already facing Section 232 tariffs will be exempt. ( from Trump's new 50% tariffs )" globalnews.ca/news/1197315...

Morning Kittens Look for the Helpers…

Not in our lifetimes

Hero story: The people in Collins First Nation had minutes to escape the wildfire. 13-year-old Chance Paavola was piloting an emergency escape vessel when he saw an overcrowded boat on the verge of sinking. He turned back, helped save the passengers just before the flames closed in.

Part 1 of 2. This isn’t news. But the way @tonyrush.bsky.social conceptualizes it makes in accessible…and actionable.

The same people who want to sanction Canada for the wildfire smoke have killed federal regulations so they can load the atmosphere with deadly pollutants while cutting cancer research and reducing access to healthcare.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth announced mandatory testosterone screenings, but it’s a symptom of a larger fixation. Read more from @vicmsong.bsky.social in this week's Optimizer:

GOOD NEWS! Phase I clinical trial results out of John Hopkins show a first-of-its-kind vaccine designed to target common KRAS mutations was safe AND stimulated KRAS-specific T-cell responses in 90% of study participants who were at HIGH risk of developing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

Watching SpaceX collapse below its IPO price.

Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”

You know you are aging as an academic when you are sad the first time you teach about 'phenomenology' or say 'phenomenon' and no one - NO ONE - in class responds with 'Do do, do do do'

"That's not the Bluenoser way" could honestly be the rallying cry against most anything the Premier of Nova Scotia is doing these days.

Its funny how everyone's idea of heaven is a complete untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a Utopia of peace, unity and happiness. But here on earth it's considered a leftist ideology.
