There is no political cost for our deaths. The mountain of corpses has led to no government falling, no minister resigning, no cabinet shuffle, no high-ass muckedy-muck getting sacked, not even a junior official suspended. Nothing.

In this past decade of mass death, there were timid steps in the right direction - at first. But the most coherent, passionate response from the state (and its various apparatus) has been to smash DULF, hire more cops & roll back what little harm reduction we had won.

"DULF produced a peer-reviewed study that showed after about one year none of its compassion club members had died. Members reported having fewer overdoses and engaging in less crime." Heartbreaking that Canada's criminal law prioritizes drug prosecution over saving human lives.

People are still blindly accepting the Reagan era belief that giving a bunch of money to the private sector will lead to a kajillion new jobs? This has been debunked for over 4 decades now. How on Earth are we still having these debates? Carney is a banker. Does not care about any of us. Just corps.

did you know the Mountain Goats have a new album out today and you can buy it or stream it and dance to it in your living room or while driving or on the subway and it's a whole vibe? well now you know that 30tgrs.ffm.to/ttfafpb

Weapons bearing the logo of a Canadian arms manufacturer have been identified in the hands of a paramilitary group in Sudan responsible for massacres of civilians, analysis by CBC’s visual investigations unit has found.

The article includes this little gem: "Technically, selling poppies at a polling station is illegal." Yep, everything that's against the law is technically illegal. That's how laws work. I wonder which other laws get the same editorializing treatment from CTV News?

The absolute collapse of their stupid AI ruse — hopefully followed by a massive wave of tech regulation and imprisoning the politicians who enabled this — cannot come soon enough.

The Supreme Court allows ostrich farm cull to proceed. People are shocked that potential transmitters of deadly avian disease will be killed on an ostrich farm that... (checks notes) normally kills them for meat. #cdnpoli

Judge says Sandwich Guy case “a load of baloney,” noting prosecution’s arguments “just couldn’t cut the mustard.”

A great piece, I loved it. A reminder that for all its vast benefits to humanity, the conversion to renewables will mean all of these people will have to work for a living again, and that is a great thrumming joy.

Capitalist govts protect corporate profits by keeping corporate taxes low and refusing to fund our public services. As more and more people are pushed into harm and desperation, their only solution is to continue militarizing the police against the people they have chosen to leave behind. #CDNPoli

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

The Libs are going to spend a lot of energy spinning this when everything stops working and they end up hiring new people at lower rates to make it all work again.

Can't stop thinking about the fact that the government is literally slashing public service jobs while bringing in AI for use in the public service. They are literally doing, as a government, what we scream at tech bros for doing to their employees. Pretty gross!

Feels like a little more is possible today, and a new bike day.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike. Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%. Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

Your suspicions confirmed……

Your whole family can enjoy these, don’t sleep on Circle Round.

I did a voice on this week's episode of Circle Round, recorded live at Symphony Hall in Boston! It's called "Whatever You Like" and it's fun to listen to with your kids if you have kids!

I think a lot of normal people watched Mamdani's speech last night and realized they might also be Socialists, so I'm fully in favour of the Republicans platforming him as the face of the Democratic Party before the midterms

Z's victory speech last night is also, and I should note this, the first time in my life I have ever heard a politician wholeheartedly express the ancient principle that C.L.R. James asserted so assiduously and pricelessly: that Every Cook Can Govern. www.marxists.org/archive/jame...

This was her speech…. I’m boutta start crying

They could never make me hate this lady…. Like this is so precious omg 🥹😭

A Journalist Asked If Israel Should Pay to Rebuild Gaza. It Cost Him His Job. theintercept.com/2025/11/04/j...

here is my story about how Zohran's focus on community amid the loneliness epidemic helped young people connect their politics to an organizing infrastructure, that interviewed ZM, and does not use the NYT's framing of "they don't know how to make friends" :-) and also ran 4 days before NYT's lol

Yo, if this was happening in Canada we’d shut it all down right?

I'm going to be the rambling old man at the socialist revolution continually introducing motions to exhume the corpses of the Bush administration to be put on trial like Pope Formosus. "This again..." Yes, this again! Grab a shovel, comrades. History cries out for justice.

the time has come for journalists to flock to bluesky to take the pulse of real america

The entire pundit class has convinced people for so long that their “analysis” was somehow necessary and valuable when in reality it was just a con game to manufacture consent for bias-confirming “strategies” that only benefited the capitalist class and guaranteed pundits career security.

Yesterday in the Legislature, I asked Danielle Smith why health care keeps getting worse under her watch. When she became Premier, she promised to fix it within months. However wait times are up, family doctors are harder to find, and health care workers are burning out. #abhealth #ableg #abpoli

lol that’s what we learned folks, more to the center!

In his so-called "austerity" budget, Mark Carney wants to delete the luxury tax on private planes, yachts, and underused homes. Reminder: as of September, 89% of the "owners of Canada" are living paycheque to paycheque. globalnews.ca/news/1151083... #Budget2025 #Canada #CDNPoli #ClimateCrisis

I don't want to hear anyone say she lost because of racism or misogyny ever again, racism and misogyny were issues she could've overcome with good policies. The people who opted to stay home did so because she's a war criminal supporting uniparty shill.

organizing is how you win elections. i know that can be a shocking thing for some folks to learn.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.
