Person who actually deserves a trophy is the artist who made the FIFA peace prize trophy look like everyone in the entire world holding their head in their hands out of secondhand embarrassment

Disabled isn't a dirty word, and it's fine to work through internalized ableism if you were raised thinking so. We live in an ableist world.

Posting stupid memes after being accused of murder is the response of a sneering, spoiled punk who has been caught doing wrong and is now daring the local fuzz to take him in and risk the anger of his rich dad—a role fulfilled by Donald Trump, in this case. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

So the guy selling COVID supplies to the government was hoping for more intense COVID waves, a direct outcome of policy decisions by a government he influenced through dozens of channels.

People couldn't afford the fees involved in appealing the decision anyway so the point is moot. Moot & cruel. "Bill 12 also bars appeals of the decision to move existing AISH clients onto ADAP and gives the minister power to decide which other benefit decisions can be appealed."

I second the motion to adopt this term.

Can someone show the White House Press Corpse a montage of the reporters who covered previous administrations, the ones who weren't complete cowards?

It's the time of year again -- time to do your holiday shopping from independent artists. It's more important than ever to support people actually making stuff! If you're an artist or craftsperson of any kind, please reply to this with what you make and a link to your store and I'll share it!

Colleen Jones has died. One of the greatest curlers in Canadian history, she appeared at the Scotties 21 times, winning six championships. She also won two World Championships. Jones was also a broadcaster on CBC for four decades before she retired.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Holy f@$k! “ChatGPT exhibits the highest level of anti-Black racism ever experimentally recorded.” This whole video is jaw-dropping.

The Alberta Government is normalizing the use of the notwithstanding clause in an attempt to ignore the rule of law. Use your voice. Protect the Charter. Stand up for human rights. Democracy depends on it.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi. I hired and worked with Jamal for a year. www.washingtonpost.com/world/nation...

The fact that no one in the room stood up for her says a lot about how we got here bsky.app/profile/pale...

Alberta's planned use of the NWC Nov 17th to ban trans care sets a dangerous precedent that undermines the rule of law. When government uses a "loophole" to deliberately override Charter-protected equality rights, it weakens democracy & puts all marginalized groups at risk. transactionalberta.ca

COVID-19 should have brought us together. Instead, it accelerated our turn towards toxic hyper-individualism. On Remembrance Day, let's rediscover the importance of values like shared sacrifice and mutual interest -- and remember why it mattered. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/10/o...

My ask of any science enthusiasts who tell the story of Rosalind Franklin: Don't make her life be about the DNA debacle. She died far too young, but she was a promising scientist in her own right, a mentor and scientific author. Not for Watson or Crick, but for her legacy.

Thinking only of Rosalind Franklin today, and what was stolen from her (and so many other female scientists alongside her).

The UCP are happy to extend the contract for a private surgical company connected to the CorruptCare scandal… …but not for the Auditor-General who’s investigating it. Because the most power-hungry Premier & government in Canada isn’t in this for Albertans - they’re in this for themselves. #abpoli

He's also the one who certified the #ForeverCanadian petition & the recent rash of UCP recall petitions. “This is the government choosing to fire, to remove the individual that is currently investigating them in one of the most serious scandals, some of the most serious allegations we've ever seen"
