Purchasing this shirt is a moral obligation, idk what to tell you.

The Winter Solstice is today, which means the shortest day of the year, but it doesn’t mean the sun isn’t shining. Clear skies and snow can brighten things up, and solar panels can still make use of the light even in the middle of winter.

Picking up your car from the bar the next morning isn’t a walk of shame—it’s a badge of honor. It means you made the smart call, got home safely, and kept the roads safer for everyone. Celebrate your choice, maybe with a cup of coffee.

Gangster state - the Republicans want to issue letters of marque for American pirates to board and seize ships. When MAGA gets its foreign policy ideas from Somalian gunboats you know the empire id done. As Stan Rogers would say, God damn them all. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIwz...

There is no trend or epidemic of kids being trans or non-binary.

Ukraine made the terrible mistake of trusting the US. No one else should be so foolish.

Good luck to everyone currently trying to get their kids to look at the camera! 🎅📷

Hype. No form of CO₂ removal is a climate solution as long as we’re still releasing >40 billion tonnes of CO₂ every year from fossil fuel burning.

Another allegory from my dog: I had a handful of carrot sticks. I gave Watson one and he gladly took it. But he saw there were more in my hand, and carrots take a while to eat, so he spat it out to make room in his mouth for another one. All the carrots were on the floor and not in his belly.

Honestly Canadian news, is it not bad we have to watch Trump on U.S. news, do we also have to deal with that sick fucker here as well.

A year ago, I took the biggest risk of my professional life. I launched my independent journalism project: Bubble Pop. And….holy shit. You guys made my dreams come true. This year has been a roller coaster. I can't wait to see what 2026 brings. (Hopefully fewer death threats?? lol):

Uber lobbied hard for the OBBB, the most environment-hostile bill in US history, and is now pulling back its EV subsidies. Uber sucks. Don't use it.

Having opened door to Alberta separation vote, UCP changes rules to block competing referenda. albertapolitics.ca/2025/12/havi...

I just gave my 20yo a rundown of the day's news, and he said, "It's all so dumb, it's hard to take seriously and so it's hard to fight. We'd be better at fighting smarter authoritarians!" "We'd be better at fighting smarter authoritarians" is going to stick with me.

The left needs more influencers who are mostly about other shit. That's what is moving all these young people right -- not "political content," but dumbass lifting videos & bro podcasts where RW politics is casual & taken for granted.

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK: He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial. C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

BREAKING: Kennedy Niece Maria Shriver: "It is beyond comprehension that this sitting president has sought to rename this great memorial dedicated to President Kennedy. It is beyond wild that he would think adding his name in front of President Kennedy’s name is acceptable. It is not."

Gotta say, hitting the year mark of when I first launched my independent news outlet is SCARY. I've had about a 10% drop in income after passing the "auto renew" dates from my initial launch, eek! If you have some extra cash and wanna spend it on some independent journalism, consider subscribing :)

New article from me today about the new study of Finland's basic income experiment that found recipients of unconditional income had 33% better mental health than the control group that got the same amount of money with conditions. I also dive into a lot of other evidence about UBI and mental health

I know many of you who follow me don't work in climate science, but this is the biggest story in climate right now. Breaking up NCAR makes us all less safe and is another act of self-harm that will take decades to recover from.

Steve is refusing to talk to me unless I address him as Uri the unicorn. I'm too tired to fight him on this one. I'm sure he has his reasons..

On the 3rd day of fossils, my true love gave to me... 3 cyclocystoids! I wouldn't be surprised if you've never heard of a cyclocystoid. They are one of the rarest fossil echinoderms and related to starfish and sea urchins. They are small and fall apart quickly after death. 1/x #12DaysofFossils

There's a lot of debate about whether trans athletes have an advantage, but if folks are going to have that conversation, they must also consider whether trans athletes also have disadvantages or a mix of both. The one-way, homogenized debate is inherently transphobic.

This CBC article reads like a tourism brochure for the US travel industry. Not one mention of the boycott. The article says that if you travel to Montana you can buy one beer and get one free. Frick...I value our sovereignty to a higher value than a free bottle of Coors. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Read this. Then read it again.

When we crunch Canada Post's numbers, we don’t see a system bloated by high costs—and when we look at comparison countries, we see that budget cuts and falling revenue go hand-in-hand. By Ryan Romard @policyalternatives.ca #canlab www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

This is disgusting that our provincial government continues to allow social housing units to remain empty. Let your MLA know that action must be taken to make these vacant units available for renting as well as rent control for the province as well www.sasktoday.ca/regina-today...

Gender-neutral bathrooms : A guide

In a broad sense, on a day like today, please take care of each other, stand with Jewish folks who are hurting after this horrific antisemitic attack, and reject any attempts to co-opt that pain and trauma to drive more division and hate. ❤️

This crap just got personal. ICE detained our friend and contractor just after he had left our house. He was stopped on Aurora Avenue in N. Seattle. He has a severely disabled teenage son and his wife can't leave their house. As responsible and honest as they come. And they impounded his car! Yuck

Wanted to make a longer post about the mass shooting at Brown and found this post about Sandy Hook from 2012 and how sad is it that I can literally copy paste the exact same post because gun violence has only gotten worse without federal legislation to stop the ~40K annual preventable gun deaths.😓

Canada’s #boycott is working Sorry we need to protect our country

12 dead at a mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach.💔 A 43-year-old father of two, Ahmed al Ahmed, snuck up & tackled a gunman to disarm him. Ahmed was shot twice. Both Jewish & Muslim faiths teach that “to save one life is to save all humanity.” Let us hold fast to our humanity.❤️
