This is horrific. Please consider writing and calling your MP to protest this.

Never ending horrors.

Our government is run by extremely serious and sober people.

gotta say, this rings more true to me as what the actual caesar would say. he saved brutus’s ass so many times...

This is hardly surprising, coming from the same guy who claimed his election was stolen after votes continued to be counted after he was in the lead.

President Donald Trump announced that he had "essentially" won the war against Iran and complained that it was "unfair" for the country to close its Strait of Hormuz after the so-called victory.

When people start objecting to “cosmetic” surgery for teens and young adults, I ask them if they include gynecomastia for cis boys and breast reduction for cis girls with back injury. Because that’s who is getting these procedures done, for the most part. Girls with spinal injuries, boys with boobs

Not a lot of people know this, but one of the leading ways in which the Communist Chinese infiltrate our country is by filing FOI requests with the Government of Ontario.

How would YOU open the Strait of Hormuz? Wrong answers only.

Local man says pepper spray best deterrent to Freedom of Information requests.

Who would have thought that tariffing all our allies over a lie, threatening their sovereignty, calling them names, proclaiming us the greatest and saying they aren't doing anything, and then starting a war of aggression could result in this!

Every time this discourse comes up I point out that it’s only a concern for a) racists and b) people who believe that economic growth must be endlessly exponential in order for society to survive, ie neoliberal capitalism

A point we make in this story is trump and his ruling party and minions like Vance, Miller, Hegseth, Rubio et al spent more than a year doing the most cartoonish form of being a dick to key allies and others as possible— tariffing insanely, threatening to invade a NATO ally for no reason, and…

Although AI consumes a lot of water and energy, its biggest environmental impact is that it reproduces values that got us into the climate crisis in the first place: extraction, productivity, and efficiency. I spoke to @paulschuetze.bsky.social about his research on this!

President Trump has tried to withhold billions of dollars in federal funding to coerce states, punish opponents, remake programs and impose his views. His targets have repeatedly sued to stop him, and the courts have repeatedly rebuked him — only for the president to try again and again.

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy But here's my labyrinth I stole your baby

Cover reveal! Thumbin’ The Rock, coming soon! "At ages 72 and 60 respectively, we were spry but no ‘Spring Chickens’ and with little more than a belief in ourselves and a strong desire for adventure, we hitchhiked the province of #Newfoundland in September of 2012." #booksky

I'm generally opposed to the 'justify your salary' job review, but in this case it seems necessary.

Did you know that in 2020 1 in 3 Nova Scotians lived with a disability? Well, recently that number increased to almost 2 in 5 Nova Scotians. That's almost 40% of the population, and the highest disability rate in Canada. Yet, no one's talking about Long Covid. #LongCovidAwarenessDay

Last year, the CBC published an article to commemorate the 5th Covid anniversary in Nova Scotia. In 2025, there were another 109 deaths from Covid. The province continues to ignore the harms from infection, and refuses to educate the public about Long Covid. #LongCovidAwarenessDay

“Imagine being handed a survey when you board a plane: Should the airline prioritize your arrival time or the structural integrity of the landing gear?” “We don’t hold referendums on airplane safety. The same logic should apply to street design.” Should we send this article to Trish Purdy?

Worried about imposter syndrome? Don't be - you are smarter than this guy.

Magpies wondering why there’s not as many of them as there used to be.

Funny, they were so proud of their actions last year. Now they won't admit what they did.

This Long Covid Awareness Day, try to hear people's experience, and don't assume it can never affect you. So many people, often young and fit, have had their worlds turned upside down in the last 6 years. Each infection is a roll of the dice. How lucky do you feel? #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay #LCAD26

Sunday is chore day, specifically floor cleaning day, but first: youtu.be/0R6WIbx8ysE?...

The good news is that online data helps me find old friends I lost track of years ago, thanks to frequent moves by me and them (and reliance on physical instead of electronic addresses and address books). The bad news is I'm finding them by their obituaries.

We’re lifting sanctions against Russia even though Trump admits they might be giving classified information about US troops to Iran and 13 military service personnel are dead But somehow it’s Zelenskyy’s fault What, exactly, does Putin have on him

Today is #LongCovidAwarenessDay. Sunday — will @uklabourparty.bsky.social Govt @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social ignore it or show awareness that millions live with Long Covid? This time in 2020 a decision was taken to deny and downgrade #Covid's risk. t.co/cOH4af9r73 That risk remains today. Be Aware.

Not a lot of Indians on here to talk about this, but here's a petition opposing the Indian governments move 'to redefine the term “transgender person” & remove the principle of self-identified gender identity from the law [and reverse] the constitutional progress achieved in recent years.'

The harms of gen AI go far beyond copyright theft and environmental damage.

Anyone who says it is an honor to kill people, under any circumstances, should be locked up for the protection of society.

What a fucking psychopath. It is “his great honor” to kill these “deranged scumbags.” I’m sure the parents of 175 innocent schoolgirls would disagree. I know war will have casualties. But you can still act like a human being.
