Wow. I had one of these to take my first job at Texas Tech. This is insane and a major self-inflicted wound.

New UN commission report just dropped: Israel is committing genocide. apnews.com/article/isra...

This snippet of Volkov’s speech is so powerful.

I missed this gem from the grandmaster of gems.

1/10 So the fake claims of "trans" and "antifa" symbols comes from both ammo stamps and casing inscriptions wrongly reported. They try to paint Tyler as left, but like Crooks this is a fringe right wing Groyper. Here's the details on registered Republican, Tyler Robinson: x.com/adamscochra...

So much weird in here, but hard to disagree that the average Saxon would have recognised policies of sinking vessels you don't like the look of, and imprisoning people who look different.

Amid so many awful things in this, the authors attempt to downplay the murder of Palestinian children: “Resulting in 22% of total casualties being children, well under the proportion of children in the population in Gaza.”

Liberal Tory same old story. Mark Carney should just re-start the old PC brand.

Mark Carney does not need to to invite a fascist who doesn't believe women should work and who thinks contraception is evil to come and speak to "understand him better."

I maintain this list and celebrate each new addition and funding improvement to allow all to access our discipline. It feels equally important to mark the rollback of past successes. Programs at UVa, Columbia, Cornell, and Rutgers, now no longer exist. RT pls. 1/ livyarrow.org/funded-mas-a...

This little girl is wearing leg shackles, trafficked to who knows where. It was caught on the airport cameras

Heinen's converted an old bank building & opened a full service grocery store in downtown Cleveland. It's really useful to people who live & work there. It's heavily utilized.

The City of Atlanta is opening its first municipal grocery store today. The city is spending $3.5 million in partnership with a neighborhood grocery chain in an effort to eliminate a downtown food desert. www.wsbtv.com/news/local/a...

Imagine the complicated and precious genius of the girl who made this embroidery sampler in 1811 The Solar System, sampler, unknown maker, 1811, England. Museum no. T.92-1939. Victoria and Albert Museum, London.

Guys, I have a special & unusual request today. My cousin Sean is a union bus driver here in Los Angeles who was just FIRED in retaliation for saying he would not let masked ICE agents onto his bus to abduct riders. The fight is on to get his job back, you can help: actionnetwork.org/letters/send...

All academic publishers rushing for addendums to satisfy our supposed AI masters is really depressing.

'It's about people, not buildings': Dalhousie Faculty Association stages rally after being locked out

1000 faculty hit the picket lines tomorrow, 930 am, lockout by @dalhousieu.bsky.social. A first for CDN research intensive universities. A reckless move by the Board - jeopardizing the fall term, ruining relations with faculty for years to come. Join us on the picket lines to #keepdalstrong!

Why does Winnipeg smell so bad today???

The shooting of toddlers in the neck by Israeli snipers wasn’t enough. Leaving a young man with Down’s Syndrome to die alone in fear and agony without his family wasn’t enough. Detaining healthcare staff and leaving new born babies to die in incubators wasn’t enough.

The right to strike is still a right even when it inconveniences travelers because we’re stuck with a near monopoly garbage airline in Canada that specializes in sucking money from the government and getting them to act on its behalf.

Ah that's lovely news. metro.co.uk/2025/08/06/m...

What perfect album came out when you were 16?

I'm a baker with a PhD, naturally I had to get my thesis turned into a cake 🤷🏻‍♀️

It only took me a million viewings to realize that there’s Latin in KPop Demon Hunters!

🚨 In this open letter, the presidents of Gaza's universities are asking us all in the academic world to step up. LET'S GO! "The time for symbolic solidarity has passed. We now ask for practical, structured, and enduring partnership" www.aljazeera.com/opinions/202...

Yesterday, one of our union leaders was arrested during an ICE raid in Camarillo, CA, while he was lawfully observing immigration enforcement activities. www.calfac.org/statement-condemning-the-abduction-and-disappearance-of-cfa-members-in-camarillo/

A worker was killed. Dozens detained. Dr. Jonathan Caravello, A CSU faculty member and US citizen, was brutalized & disappeared by ICE for observing. Trump’s ICE thugs are escalating terror in our communities. Release them ALL. seiuca.org/press-releas...

First, I am one hundred percent one of these ‘radical breastfeeding activists’ that’s she’s talking about. Let’s acknowledge that she’s responding to a post where I asked a BF’ing question of a public space. I bf everywhere, I’m a working mum, I will fight for my right to feed my kid

Francesca Albanese is a truth teller. She has spoken out against the genocide of Palestinian civilians as UN representative. Trump is targeting her. Canada is totally silent. Mark Carney must be clear: either we support international law or we support gangster regimes.

What do @mark-carney.bsky.social and the Canadian government have to say about this egregious middle finger to international law?

The Walrus is hiring an editorial producer to sharpen our copy and bring a love of all things digital to the team. Apply by Wednesday, July 16. thewalrus.ca/about/careers/

“Gaza deserves death. The 2.6 million terrorists in Gaza deserve death! … Men, women, and children – in every way possible, we must simply carry out a Holocaust on them – yes, read that again – H-O-L-O-C-A-U-S-T! For me, gas chambers. Train cars.” - Israeli channel 14 TV producer

What a good Friday for pedestrians and other perambulation enthusiasts! It wasn’t quite parting the Red Sea, but political will and a beneficent cost-benefit analysis, parted the vehicle traffic at Portage and Main. Allowing, after forty-six years, for pedestrian crossings at street level. 1/2

Portage & Main opening is wonderful but the best pedestrian improvement in Winnipeg has to be the crosswalk headstart. Write to your councilors so that this pilot project becomes permanent!

IDF soldiers have now themselves admitted they have been ordered to murder aid-seekers in Gaza. Truly an atrocity built on atrocity. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

An actual member of Congress. And the Democratic Party would put up no resistance whatsoever.

Get rid of the military and tell Trump/NATO to eff off?

Disgraceful that @mark-carney.bsky.social did not condemn the illegal American attacks on Iran. Canada should stand firmly on the side of international law. Once more glad to have the principled @leahgazan.bsky.social as my MP!

2003 all over again. There are no nuclear weapons. There is no reason to start a war.

Why would I want Meta AI to summarize messages from my friends?!?

PSA for everyone going to protests

Israeli forces attacked and illegally boarded a civilian sailing vessel in international waters and kidnapped 12 volunteers en route to #Gaza with humanitarian aid. Canada, France, and the UK: it is time to end impunity for war crimes! open.substack.com/pub/zeteo/p/... #AllEyesOnDeck #cdnpoli

A new Ancient Greek web library: oxytone.xyz lets you highlight different parts of a text (verbs and cases, for example) and offers full lemmatization. You can also create flash card decks from any custom selection of text (via @Athanasius_45)

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Here are some ways that we can all help our relatives who have been evacuated by the wildfires in Manitoba.

If you are against trans rights what in the actual fuck is wrong with you? Get a fucking life you creepy genital obsessed freaks.

J.K. Rowling is using her wealth from the Harry Potter series to help fund a genocide of trans people. Now that you know this, supporting her or her work in any way makes you complicit. Don't be complicit. www.advocate.com/news/jk-rowl...

Comments and quotes of this absolute nonsense are chef’s kiss.
