Someone did this minuscule damage to my car when it was parked overnight in Nanaimo and I was in Vancouver last Friday. I was a little mad but figured it’ll be cheap and I can repair it myself. But today I got a letter from ICBC saying the driver made a report and they’re gonna pay to fix it!

The President of the United States is a liar.

Some people use AI to write papers, figure out their life goals, make financial plans for the future. I use it to show me Richard Pryor as a superhero. It was cool, and yes, I'm only 13 years old developmentally. I don't care.

Trump’s daughter & son in law buy a 1400 acre island on an impulse, using money extorted using their family connection to the U.S. President. As brazen as Russian oligarchs… #auspol youtube.com/shorts/E-f3o...

While Russia bombs apartment buildings and murders civilians daily, the US will play a hockey game in Russia to “melt the ice between us.”

Given CBS's acquisition by a billionaire family whose business interests have bowed to the political interests of Trump, reflects a larger war over control of the media. Selective editing, high-profile staff departures, and shifting editorial directions have compromised the network.

In case it wasn’t evident that CBS has been completely transformed to a state funded propaganda network, them literally destroying 60 Minutes and firing journalists for refusing to report outright lies is all the proof you need. CBS is imploding and I couldn’t be more thrilled to see it.

NASA got ghosted.

I would buy this in a heart beat $5k, wuling mini ev. Perfect city car.

For a very clear explanation of official US policies of fear, look for Professor Jeffrey Sachs.

Watch all the Republican senators fall in line to confirm Blanche because he “canceled” the slush fund (though he won’t put that in writing) but allowed the Trump tax immunity to remain.

Fossil Fuel Industries should be paying reparations to the entire world for the lies they've spouted for half a century. Every single cent of income that is made should be funneled to natural disaster relied and clean energy, along with atmospheric carbon recapturing

Our society is worse for the loss of those days when full time university students were just that: full time students, working on the side to cover student ‘luxuries’ like local gigs, engaging in uni events, etc. When did we ever think full time university students should be investing in shares?

My daughter has Down Syndrome and the NDIS has been gutted, and you fully support the cuts. So, basically f*ck you and the entitled horse you rode in on

Oop Disney killed Star Wars again because the new movie... *checks notes* Made less of a profit than some of the other ones Oh no!

Just bought a Chevy bolt for the Lifepo4 battery for bidirectional charging at home as V2H. No more solar joules for pge! I would have bought the Chinese model of Toyota BZ7. Cannot due to the inept American government.

This is from 1993. the terminal closed 10 years later because of “market conditions“ www.latimes.com/archives/la-... Anyway don’t let people tell you this is a brave move to avoid unreasonable environmental restrictions!

The Big 4 have lost their social licence. Australians have had enough. It’s time the government made these opaque, largely unregulated mega-partnerships accountable under the same corporate law, regulatory, whistleblower & tax regime as other large businesses in Australia.

After years of internal inquiries & cover-ups, KPMG is exposed thanks to a courageous whistleblower. Even during the PwC scandal, KPMG who were engaged in their own corrupt behaviours, failed to notify parliament despite giving evidence to multiple parli inquiries. Such dishonesty beggars belief.

KPMG has admitted to misusing confidential client information to get more audit work, using AI to cheat on internal exams, breaching audit independence, & “falling short” on whistleblower’s concerns. Despite this the DOP holds 8 consultancy contracts worth $27 mil with KPMG.

This may come as a surprise, but there's a signed ceasefire agreement. #SanctionIsrael #FreePalestine #GazaHolocaust

My day is going just fine and I'm not going to change that by scrolling up for the context.

Yes, the U.S. is very scary right now, and also, it is actively counterproductive to pretend like we’re facing the same risks as protesters from drones as someone in Gaza or Ukraine is right now.

Tactically and operationally: the US in 2026 is just not a context in which it makes a lick of sense for the U.S. government to explode protesters with FPV drones. Quite frankly there are a lot of simpler and more road-tested ways to intimidate and kill people on domestic soil.

I research the use of weaponized small drones against civilians globally: there’s a VAST list of things I’d worry about US law enforcement doing before I’d worry about them blowing up/shooting protesters with drones. I worry lots about cop drone SURVEILLANCE. I don’t worry about this.

I’m at the centrist Dems rally and we’re all chanting our winning message: “actually our economic system is perfect and if you don’t feel like you’re benefiting from it that’s a you problem”

Trump just signed order "reclassifying" ~8,000 civil servants so they are easier to fire for political reasons -- this has been in the works since his first term www.govexec.com/workforce/20...

Hamawy's victory in New Jersey likely to make him a rare US Congress member with firsthand experience in besieged Gaza.

In 2024, Bill Pulte, the acting Director of National Intelligence received a trophy declaring he “fu¢ks only the young” at a bizarre event focused on dildos. He organized this to promote his conspiracy theory that Bed Bath & Beyond never actually went bankrupt. Only the best people, amirite?

Senate Republicans stripped federal funds for Donald Trump’s White House ballroom from a spending package after the money triggered a blacklash from lawmakers in both parties
