“We are living in one reality, and it can (read must) be the news media’s job to mitigate the parameters of said reality.” -Jon Stewart Do your jobs folks. There is only Planet A

“Mr Homan never took the $50k you’re talking about so you might want to get your facts straight.” Karoline Leavitt may have just have an involuntary physiological response to telling outright, obvious lies. Check out her neck. Her cross can’t help her. Perhaps she needs Trumps make up artist.

From #BC to #NovaScotia, Canadian political leadership proritizing profits for multinational firms over people and the environment is a disgrace. Voters fell for their pre-eletion #ElbowsUp schtick promising economic well-being for all not just CEOs. Time to put them in the penalty box. #canpoli

"Ricochet did an analysis of [Canary Mission] and found 414 profiles from Canada." "62% of the Canadians listed are women or gender minorities." "And every seven out of 10 women listed are racialized." "Fear of retribution is very concerning." #Canada #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #USA #Genocide

Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be assholes.

Depolarization is not "a scalable solution for reducing societal-level conflict.... achieving lasting depolarization will likely require....moving beyond individual-level treatments to address the elite behaviors and structural incentives that fuel partisan conflict" www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Hind Khoudary explains that the people we see streaming south have no where to go, lack any kind of shelter and are heading to an area that's already overcrowded.

Creativity, surprise, rigor, and a plan for what comes next,bc fighting fascism must always involve a response to the response. This is what effective resistance looks like. ✊🏼

Kamala Harris has learned nothing. When @maddow.msnbc.com asked her if she endorses Zorhan Mamdani, she failed to say as much in clear terms. She obfuscated by saying she supports the Democratic nominee “in the race” but then suggested Democrats not “over index” on a single star in NYC. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Only the U.S. can do Munich like it’s a hybrid beauty pageant and a WWF match.

The offer made to women in the enticement to become trad wives is the same as the offer made to citizens in the enticement to embrace authoritarianism: give up. Abandon the aspiration to self rule. It’s imprisonment recast as rest and relief.

Would you do this?

No surprise the Trump family is involved in promoting a games with doping as part of their design. It will be a spectacle, a kind of modern day gladiator gathering where athletes compromise their health and the integrity of sport for prize money. We live in such perverse times. #EnhacedGames #dopes

Best birthday present ever. @nolore.bsky.social and @sandyhudson.bsky.social are on Whitehorse doing their live podcast. My take away? Bring creativity, the element of surprise, rigour and sustainability to your direct action as you get in the way and become an impediment to the powers that be.

National Academies of Science panel finds that: The EPA was right in 2009 (when it found that climate change driven by society’s emissions of greenhouse gases are endangering human health & lives), and that everything we've learned since has only made it more right. arstechnica.com/science/2025...

This is a welcome sign that, despite its many other failings, the city has this going for it. Thank you to the Toronto Public Library for continuing to re-invent itself in inclusive ways that allow everyone equal and dignified access to information and caring. This is democracy at its finest.

A succinct and accurate take on how fascists operate.

“There is a dictator’s playbook.” The problem is, there isn’t a playbook on how to fight one, except to fight like hell for your rights and never give up. Watch this:

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

Good moment to remember that US foreign policy is also being reoriented to enable foreign censors and authoritarian propaganda around the world www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

More than a few of the LNG lobbyists in this province are former NDP staffers or ministers. And www.dogwoodbc.ca/news/oil-and...

This is why they’re deleting studies

When CP asked Eby about the U.S. investors behind Ksi Lisims LNG: “Those investors, regardless of their political affiliation, could invest anywhere…They could bring their money to other places." “Elbows Up” Eby paraded US liquor boycott, but rolls out the red carpet for MAGA billionaires. #bcpoli

Just finished listening to this latest episode of @breachmedia.ca podcast - a fascinating history of the NDP with historian Ian McKay. Highly recommend: breachmedia.ca/the-ndps-unt...

Last time it was the NDP, now it’s the BC Greens making it difficult for new members, the majority of whom have come on board for @emilylowan.bsky.social, to become validated to vote for party leader. Emily is far and away, the best candidate for the people and the environment. #BCpoli

BC Greens are not covering themselves in glory with these mid-campaign rule changes targeting new members, and putting in roadblocks to the one candidate with the people first change agenda the party, and this province, desperately needs #BCpoli www.biv.com/news/comment...

Lavrov: "For lasting peace, new territorial realities must be recognized under international law." They want international recognition of Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories. If that happens, that will mean completely destruction of existing international law and order.
