Sarah Polley, on getting comedy acting tips from Catherine O’Hara www.gq.com/story/how-th...

My hot take is that without blocking the flow of capital, protest mostly serves to dissipate radical energy and should only be used as one tool in a comprehensive organizing kit.

This is what we get instead of a green new deal folks, remember this when your house is on fire or washes away in a flood.

A lot of folks embroiled in the Will Stancil of it all, should read this book, including Will. Understanding the flaws in a Liberal power structure analysis, and the keys to organizing for power, would be super insightful. janemcalevey.com/book/no-shor...

What I find so demoralizing is starting with an end goal of finding a way to keep government open rather than finding a way to use the threat of shutdown to end ICE; Possible? Perhaps not. But "abolish ICE" must be the starting position. Reforms are just putting a cup full of diarrhea on a doily.

How did road safety become ideological? Doesn’t everyone want to be able to walk on the sidewalk and cross the streets? Ride their bike to the beach and the store? Boggles the mind.

"Road safety should not be ideological. The data is clear. The solutions are known. And the cost of inaction is not abstract — it is measured in futures erased, in love with nowhere to go, and in grief that never resolves" - Vanessa Gentile #biketo #onpoli www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Erica McLean is a Gitxsan member and Prince George school trustee, and she and the whole community are failed by over-resourced and under-useful police who seem unable to assess risk. Or identify cars. Or people. Or stop being racist bullies. Disband RCMP, start w BC fr www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

They *married* 14 years ago, when he was 48 and she was 23. He started dating her when he was 41 and she was 16. In case you needed another reason to think of him as a piece of shit.

First Nations Chiefs are calling on Alberta’s premier to resign, accusing Danielle Smith of conspiring with separatists and violating Treaty rights “I hope you have your bags packed. When this referendum is defeated, I will gladly walk you to the border.” #fyp

Fun fact: I'm eligible for both track 1 (individuals whose natural death is reasonably foreseeable) and track 2 (just plain ol' disabled) of MAiD, yet I'm not eligible for palliative care services which would vastly improve my quality of life 🙃

just choked on my beverage

Media often appended it with “Hamas-run” as a way to subtly discredit its numbers. Many experts credibly argue those figures are in fact far lower than the real number today.

I am hearing that RFK Jr.’s minions are going to go after HPV vaccines. I’ve got problems with these people and now you’re going to hear about them, first from a personal perspective and then from a professional one. It all boils down to this: WE HAVE A SAFE VACCINE THAT PREVENTS CANCER.

love when there’s a newspaper profile of some psychopath that points out they allow themselves “a lone vice, like a single cup of black coffee in the morning.” personally I am a bundle of trash glued together by vices. they’re all load-bearing

As everyone in our country thinks crime is out of control because of the increasing visibility of our growing unhoused population. Drivers are crashing and dying and murdering pedestrians at an alarming rate and few politicians are talking about it in a serious way. Not great.

FINALLY something Trump and Mark Carney agree on 🤝🏼

as one of the world's most important Quora Scholars, i am unsurprised to learn that the insane guy who attacked Ilhan Omar has an account on the website New York Times journalists, please contact me for key insights into the minds of this important and growing demographic

With one in six ambulances going to unregulated drug poisonings in Alberta, people need to get comfortable talking about safe supply and harm reduction –– if not for drug war survivors, then to save the collapsing health care system. bsky.app/profile/drug...

I disagree, it does change something. It increases the evidence that Alex Pretti's murder was a premeditated act which should INCREASE the charge against the ICE thugs who killed him. This is the pattern of right wing media. Every time they try to smear ICE's victims, they make ICE more guilty.

Senate Democrats are relieved to hear this.

Hi, leftist public educator here who makes educational videos, the answer is that propagandists on the right are funded by billionaires and culture workers on the left are funded by $5 a month donations from already struggling working class people. Hope that helps, anything else is missing the point

The owner of the Grizzlies runs a company that sells equipment being used by the Russian army to kill people in Ukraine. Aren’t there sanctions against that? Yes and they’re easily skirted, aided by the company not worrying about it. Great episode, gross owner. Drones. Killing.

My thanks to @mark-carney.bsky.social for his diplomatic efforts to arrange for MELANIA to be released theatrically in Canada, it’s a first step to normalize relations between our two nations

More targeting of legal observers in Maine. People need to be aware that there are abuses by ICE occurring nationwide, not just Minnesota. Story via @themainemonitor.org and @bangordailynews.bsky.social: themainemonitor.org/maine-filmin...

The Canadian government is refusing to release the names of 700 Nazis who settled here after the Second World War. What do you even say at this point? As a Canadian, I feel angry and ashamed. www.lukewsavage.com/p/canada-mus...

I literally was in immigration court as a 5 year old but I'll have shitlibs fully become conservatives the moment I talk about democrats also being complicit in the torture and oppression of my people. They'll be so abusive, call me insults short of slurs, call me tankie. They can't fathom life.

i just want to cry. i have literally just spent the last 6 hours responding to email after email of people begging for rent money or for me to point them in the direction of help, which does not exist. please @governorwalz.mn.gov. we need an eviction moratorium. there is no other solution.

human needs are universal we all need food and shelter society is a cooperative we’re stronger together all children deserve love liberty is everything

@avilewis.ca team is doing amazing work, phone banking today was invigorating. I’d like to see them embrace Jane McAleveys “no thank yous” rule. Semantics are important in organizing, congratulate people on doing something for themselves “great work!”, we aren’t doing favours for other people.

i'm sorry but Obama dropping a link to a Ezra Klein podcast as his major intervention into MN stuff is so fucking funny to me
