today is a good day to ask yourself how much you actually support the independent artists and creators you enjoy, beyond just liking and subscribing. do you pay them money for their work? do you buy their things? fund alternative culture now or be left with the slop.

Below you can find the statement of Dr. Piotr M. A. Cywiński, the director of the Auschwitz Memorial and Museum, on the comment made by Grzegorz Braun, a member of the European Parliament.

We all agree that we’re using “clanker” as a slur for the robots right? Like Grok is a fucking clanker.

Seen recently down the street - the Eastern Milk Snake.

Change my mind: "Disruptive" is code for "exploitative". If you can't afford to pay the creators/workers who fuel your profits and valuations, then your company was never viable. It's exploitation and not democratisation.

Danielle Smith and her MAGA minions (Postmedia pundits I see you you) aren't responding to a wave of secessionist indignation. She is deliberately undermining our country in the face an unprecedented predatory threat. #ratpolitics101 #traitor #vichyorvimy

And now, the @lowestofthelow.bsky.social photo flood, all taken on Saturday at The Concert Hall. 1/3

Dear Democrats + American "friends" Even when your president says it is "unlikely" that he will use military force against our country it still worthy of a resounding response. Right? But we hear crickets. You might be okay with the end of the rule of law. Not us. www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...

Oh neat, March 28 is national "Smash Your Amazon Echo Devices With A Hammer" day.

There’s been so much interest in from US 🇺🇸health workers and jobs in Canada that I’m posting recruitment links for all 10 provinces and 3 territories: 🧵 #healthcarejobs🇨🇦

😮😮 777,370 people have voted for their state to become Canada's 11th province! And counting... Michigan is still in the lead, but Washington is coming in hot on their heels! And we see you in the top 5 California, New York and Minnesota! Join the race! Cast your vote today: bit.ly/4k3BH1u

On the streets of Brussels I encountered numerous little plaques in front of doorways. They commemorate the Jewish families who were taken from their homes and murdered by Nazis. Never forget no matter how many lies Elon Musk tells.

Bandcamp lets us keep 85% of revenue. That is the best rate of anybody out there. Over a period of about 15 years, I have taken home ~$3000. Every album is "pay what you want", so you all rock. If you bought an album for $5 then you gave me more than streaming the whole album ~300 times.

Well, would ya look at that More than 500,000 people have voted for their state to Join Canada, Eh! ❤️🍁 Michigan is currently in first place 👏 But there is still time to cast your vote... bit.ly/4aXtE22

That time Canadians hid Americans from the Iranian Revolution ... www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/t...

No they don’t. Canada and Mexico want none of this. They want the president of the United States to respect and abide by the trade treaty he negotiated with them - and not make up bogus pretexts for plunging us all into a gratuitous no win economic debacle.

Just cancelled Netflix. In the part where they ask why, I chose Other: United States Government tariffs upon my Country.

Here's a fact most Americans don't know: The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world. The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits. We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

Incredibly moving Justin Trudeau remarks: "We have fought and died alongside you....During your darkest hours...we were always there. Standing with you, grieving with you, the American people....Canadians are a little perplexed as to why our closest friends and neighbors are choosing to target us."

Shameful treatment of a friend and ally. I expect it will take a long time for America to regain trust from the rest of the free world.

Trump's attack on Canada is not about fentanyl or the border. It is an attack on our nationhood. But here's the thing: Trump is America's biggest disadvantage because he divides. But he is unifying our nation like never before. Canada #strongasfuck charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-new-wo...

We are now over 20,000 strong. I need every proud and determined Canadian to reach out to their family, friends, colleagues to sign the pledge for Canada. Each one reach one. Each one teach one. Donald will not break us. True. North. Strong. Free #strongasfuck actionnetwork.org/petitions/pl...

Thoughts on standing up for Canada and to Trump.

For all those Americans thinking they can turn Canada into the 51st state by force, remember that we have an unlimited reserve of cobra chicken drones. And there are millions of sleeper agents already in the US. Come at us, bro.

NEW VIDEO: The right's Luigi Mangione double standard. “Whatever your opinion on Thompson's murder is, many Americans' lack of sympathy is something real, something we have to grapple with,” argues @katmabu.bsky.social. Hope you watch and share!

Brand new video from Emily Triggs, song from the album "The Great Escape". This one is a folk acoustic number. youtu.be/45sX4bWwGA0?...

Annual morbidity in the 20th century, before and after vaccines: Measles: Before: 530,000, After: 47 Mumps: Before: 160,000, After: 429 Rubella: Before: 50,000, After: 3 Diphtheria: Before: 20,000, After: 2 Smallpox: Before: 30,000, After: 0 Polio: Before: 16,000, After: 0

I got this as an adult years ago. The vaccine we get as kids wears off. It’s a nasty disease and highly contagious. If you are around kids often consider getting your antibodies checked and revaccinated if necessary. Whooping Cough kills babies. You don’t want to accidentally spread it.

The Trump election exposed the failure of our democratic assumptions. We didn't pay attention to the fact that the rage rot had worked its way through the grassroots. Here are 4 simple steps for rewiring our brains and rebuilding community. @meidastouch.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=h91k...

Available now for your viewing pleasure, the new video by David Ray Alexander for ON A BAD DAY! It is now up on our YouTube Channel. Enjoy voraciously! www.youtube.com/watch?v=83b1...

When they talk about privatizing Veterans’ care and Medicare, they mean allowing companies to provide healthcare for a profit. But how do companies make those profits? By *denying* care to many who need it. Don’t get fooled by the “privatization” label. It means “for profit” and YOU are the cost.

Friendly reminder that if art is how we decorate space, then music is how we decorate time. #booksky #music

Bandcamp Friday is one of the most dangerous days of the year for me.
