Americans have to stop saying "richest country in the history of the world". Looking at you Trump but also you, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. The largest economy in 2025 isn't the "richest country in the history of the world". By ANY metric. It's historically contestable and erroneously boastful.

Quebec language politics have ALWAYS been disconnected from reality. The problem is that now it's dictating policy in very serious and dangerous ways and influencing the populace. This gets far worse before it gets better.

That ain't how your anti-monarchy, anti-absolute power constitution you love to brag about works, tough guy. Oh, and then there's the War Powers Resolution of 1973: "The President in every possible instance shall consult with Congress before introducing United States Armed Forces into hostilities."

Read this twice. Read this twice. Read. This. Twice. #covidconscious #wearamask @jaydocovid.bsky.social @winslowsp.bsky.social @hoolier.bsky.social

Ca ne va pas bien aller. But they've made sure to spend millions on promoting French and attacking non Christians and English speakers, so at least they have their patrimoine properly prioritised. www.lapresse.ca/affaires/eco...

Had a fine time in the Turner & Constable exhibition at Tate. A superb display of brilliant pictures by two of our greatest artists. Poor Constable; still so misunderstood in the labels and catalogue, but, in his own modest and subtle way, he more than holds his own.

The love of blood relatives can be so heartwarmingly lovely, can't it? Your family is who you choose. It's rarely who genetics gives you.

Be it intentional misinformation or blatant ignorance this long after Covid-19 began, it's unacceptable. From every government. Some now are starting to turn around a bit as they struggle with the amount of illness, death they've caused by having said arrogantly like Biden that Covid is over.

Well done, Quebec. Another step towards complete collapse.

It's gonna happen, and people won't care.

The pinnacle of boundless and illogical human excess in 2025 disguising depression, discontentment, and anxiety. That's what I know. It sounds ridiculous, but mark my words, in no time Black Friday will start the week after Labour Day. Good job being "All the News That's Fit to Print", NY Times.

Newsflash: That the number one thing online about cooking turkey is ways to make it taste good should be a huge sign that this is an inedible bird. Leave the poor things alone, tens of thousands get slaughtered to never be eaten. Many are discarded by supermarkets. Stop it. Leave turkeys alone.

Do not. Ever. Force your children. To hug and kiss anyone if they do not want to. Même s'il s'agit d'une bise en Europe. ANYone. Ever. They don't need to learn that social norm unless they want to when they're old enough to know why it's done.

As a neurodivergent person, it's very odd for me to hear neurotypicals explain what it's like to have autism & speak about it from a place of authority

A perfect example of why health care (in addition to rising anti-anglophone nationalism) is one of the biggest reasons we're leaving Quebec. www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

I'd love for everyone who called me and others a pessimist for not believing Netanyahu, the IDF, and Trump on the "end of the war [sic: invasion]" to apologise. But they won't. Because they haven't got the guts. And it doesn't suit their anti-Palestine narrative. #FreePalestine 🍉

Someone on tiktok challenged people to find something more beautiful. Ok, the Musée Albert-Kahn, which wasn't lived in by absolute bigots while regular people on who built it suffered every day of their lives. If you enjoy walking around in a 17th Century Mar-a-Lago, go ahead. I find it despicable.

Hey, I know!.. Why don't we all ignore this! Or better yet, file it under "underlying condition" like when everyone white took their masks off because Covid was found to more strongly affect people of colour. Bird flu killed someone. Again. #maskup www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Maybe the journalists should be "frank" with her. I'm sure they can come up with a lot of "frankness" towards her.

Some important information almost zero people in my tax bracket will understand how to operationalize:

Wish there was more general compassion in disability spaces on this site & less judgment overall. People aren't bad if they don't share every belief that you do. Infighting is never the way to go & these times are hard enough

Tres bien. 👏👏👏👏 "Dior, Guerlain et Sandro : de nouvelles marques quittent le BHV à Paris" www.francebleu.fr/infos/econom...

The hypocrisy is fucking staggering...

Despite living in New York, Toronto and Paris, I have never been so presently aware of the problem of homelessness than the past 3 years in Montreal. Not even close to those other cities.

Horrible qu'on n'en parle plus, mais tout à fait compréhensible vu la manque total de sympathie du monde. Ils disent, "nous sommes tout seuls" et ils ont raison.

If you speak French, vital essential listening. Unless, of course, you want to keep believing it's normal to have repeated colds that last longer than a few days. #maskup #covidcautious #covidisairborne

The only thing crystal clear from the lack of weight the Epstein email story has today is how many high level people are clearly involved as well. Because otherwise, where are the important voices demanding answers? Nowhere, because they don't want to provoke fingers getting pointed their way.

The statement by the MP and the headline are perfect examples of the centuries old brilliance of writing in British journalism.

Jasmine Crockett. One of the only honourable members of congress in the US.

Stop it. With. The fucking AI. It's ridiculous, it's dangerous, the world has an AI fetish, and it's competely out of control. Enough.

Brave New World.

I've rarely declared something appalling. But this is appalling. Leaves an unpleasant taste in the mouth at the idea of watching anything BBC anymore. As if the Lineker fiasco wasn't enough. Thank goodness for #Channel4 and #ITV.

I have a new way of responding when people ask me why I’m still wearing a mask. “I learned this habit when the C-19 pandemic started. What did you learn from it?”

“You still wearing a mask? Bro, it’s 2025.” Me: “You still huffing a vasculopathic, neuroinvasive biohazard?”

"800,000 more people out of work now than in 2019 due to health conditions" Hmm... I wonder what that could be caused by? I'm racking my brain. What, since 2019, could possibly be making, keeping people so sick they can't fucking work if Covid is apparently over? www.bbc.com/news/article...

How much longer will you keep focusing on his racial backgrounds, @nytimes.com? Let me help you: NYers are NYers. That has always come first, and should always come first.

Even though we left 12 years ago, moments like this make me so proud and it's why we're New Yorkers for life. Well done, Zohran. You did it right, you did it old school, you did it knocking on doors, and you didn't do it with the endorsement of tyrants. Congrats 👍🥂 #NYerForLife #TheNameIsMamdani

Un-fucking-believable that just wanting to order some fish and chips to have a little celebration at home from a place nearby has so many add-on fees that a $40 meal becomes $70+ ONLY because of all the bullshit charges by the Uber/DoorDash. Corporate Earth is bleeding us dry.

Sincèrement, terminé pour moi Le groupe Galeries Lafayette si cela continue. Ce n'est pas comme s'il n'y a rien d'autre.

Do not acknowledge Commercialism Christmas beginning this week. Take time to slowly enjoy Autumn. Breathe. We get forced to live the end of the year before it's even arrived, with all the anxieties of the loss of time. And we don't have to accept that in addition to everything else we're facing.

And our pathetic Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social apologised to this cretin.

"An old, mad, blind, despised, and dying King, Princes, the dregs of their dull race, who flow Through public scorn-mud from a muddy spring- Rulers who neither see, nor feel, nor know." - Percy Bysshe Shelley While 42 million lose food stamps, they toast themselves in rooms gilded with avarice.

So disappointed. You don't apologize to a narcissistic idiot who has been incredibly disrespectful to Canada for months. Disrespectful to the world. What a stupid move. This is what happens when you vote for a banker instead of a politician.

Provably, undeniably true.

Keep your GDP numbers, this is truly evidence of Canada in decline. It's likely the same 6% that believes the Maple Leafs will ever win a Stanley Cup again. If they can believe in vampires, they'll believe anything.

This is a food bank in Phoenix, Arizona. People are lining up because by this weekend their country will no longer give them their food stamp benefits. But Trump isn't the first person to ignore them. Food is just one of many problems these people and their ancestors have had for decades.

Please stop with "internet's favourite" trends. Last time everyone decided they wanted to make sourdough confusing an interest in being trendy with an actual interest in baking, flour wasn't available anywhere and now nobody does it anymore. Just don't. You'll do it once, you'll never do it again.

Covid causes heart disease? You don't say... So you mean, if like me, you had light arrhythmia, you shouldn't care what people say about your masking? Your minimising of Covid for years makes this article borderline offensive, @nytimes.com #maskup #wearamask #covidcautious
