I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service. Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

I’m at Graham Grove Park in #Dartmouth for Deputy Mayor Tony Mancini’s #Bike Ride. Mayor Andy Fillmore (sort of) made an appearance. #Halifax

When the Small Computer was introduced to people's Brain Ecosystems in the 2010s it found a fertile environment with weak competitors: Books, Television, Outside. It easily consolidated control. However, some people's brains were prepared, for an even greater predator had taken root: Big Computer.

One dummy backed out. The other? #bikehfx

ok maybe they have a point

I don't know why it didn't occur to me before but obviously this is why he's always saying "Tylenol" specifically

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

it's better to think of the useless centrist 'expand the tent but only rightwards' media people & politicians as blockers paid to occupy space that could otherwise be utilized productively by a serious person. their opinions are pre-approved by their donors and will never change

"...we have to take into account biological factors such as muscle mass..." MUSCLE MASS CHANGES WITH HORMONE THERAPY! Please learn something, anything, just the most basic things about trans people before weighing in on these "concerns" or you just end up looking like an easily duped fool at best.

Reminds me of one of my absolute favorite reddit posts.

This is what I mean when I talk about why all of talk of a modus vivendi or a negotiated surrender is futile; the driving engine of right-wing politics now is grievance podcasting. What they want is to have access to modernity, and also to be frothing with fury and hatred towards it at all times.

Being nice to trans people really did turn out to be a load bearing part of liberal democracy ey

As usual with this issue, Harris is calling for a compromise that already exists. Every sporting body has standards for how long athletes must be on hormones before they can compete as women. The problem isn’t that we’re ignoring ‘reasonable concerns,’ the problem is that republicans are lying.

From Milton Mayer's "They Thought They Were Free" I first read it in November and I'm rereading it now. It crushing feeling the exact same things as this academic did. It's the same process.

it has never been a better time to set up a plex server with the homies

I think to fix the state of the world we need to rebuild the 2000s internet consensus that conservatives and religious fundamentalists are stupid evil freaks

i guess not I'm surprised that Ken Jennings is really good here, i just wouldn't have predicted the host of Jeopardy being a voice of moral courage on this specific issue.

The liberal outfit that goes back to liberal fundamentals will win. That doesn't mean tacking to the center; it means emphasizing liberty interests against the emerging authoritarian regime, and NOT giving it what it wants.

The shape of politics in the US right now is increasingly that the media, political and economic elites are allied with the Trump regime against the actual people of the country who hate it

damn he's like... Just Some Guy?

Whoa, @kenklippenstein.bsky.social got the messages from Tyler Robinson's Discord server. It doesn't mirror at all the description by Kash Patel, the GOP & others: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/exclusive-...

The standing ovation in Parliament today to honour Charlie Kirk was one of the most embarrassing things I’ve ever seen from that building, and I gotta tell you, that list is long

CBC has done a story about one (1) woman seeing two (2) mice at the Infirmary and like... ma'am It's a massive industrial complex in a port city next to a construction site If all you saw were two wee mice, count yourself lucky I am annoyed that CBC gives this airtime I mean, I have grievances

Hey fellow Canadians. Can we really start getting some more noise made at granting Asylum to Trans* Americans? They're gonna get killed, and we should not allow that to happen. This is our DUTY to our siblings in the US. They do NOT deserve this.

Talking to people who only knew Pinhead as a gifted craftsman of intricate puzzle boxes.

Last year: Austin Peay State University learns prof is Nazi who went to Charlottesville rally. Admin drags heels, pays him $56k severance to leave This week: APSU prof posts screenshot of headline - Charlie Kirk Says Gun Deaths ‘Unfortunately’ Worth it to Keep 2nd Amendment- & is immediately fired

1. Trump threatened every hospital that provides gender affirming care to transgender youth. Many complied and shut down their programs. Boston Children's Hospital didn't. They fought back and kept providing care. And now, they just beat Trump in court. Subscribe to support our journalism.

it was really a tossup between "wake up sheeple" and "do not comply" here after I accidentally used my face cleanser on my chest in the shower but I think "sheeple" is so antique at this point that it adds too much additional texture. this has been Posts in Process for Sunday 9/14, click like and su

what we’ve seen from the right is the most insane case of cancel culture i’ve ever witnessed. the left has never even done close to a fraction of a fraction of what they want to do now

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

playing hollow knight for the first time

Super weird that the guy who was Practicing Politics The Right Way somehow magically seems to have a following so racist against Black people that him getting shot by a white person in the whitest state in USA results in 7 Black universities receiving terror threats. What's this got to do with us?!

Ditto really looked at a girl and said "I want to be a girl too!"

Discovering computer as an adult makes you go crazy. Discovering computer as a baby makes you go crazy. In all of human history, there will only ever be one generation to discover computer at the correct age: 13

It is pretty amazing to see people go from “the left is the enemy of democracy and must be purged” to “who can really know why good kids do bad things?”

What a difference a day makes

Now that Kirk's killer seems to be caught, maybe the news could spare a moment's attention for the right wing, from the commentariat up to the GOP and president, whose immediate reaction was not mourning, but to seize the opportunity to try to incite violence against groups they hate

fbi puts another one in the books. closing the case the way most crime is solved: someone calls and tells them who did it.

this is a real setback for podcasters who want to grow up to run the FBI some day
