The world is broadly bad, but Strip Law is the funniest show. Rewatching it and catching jokes I missed the first time because I was laughing so hard.

I keep thing about how when white people talked to the Premier on the second floor it was fine. But black people on the second floor is a security risk. This is overtly racist.

Shame on the province. This is really racist. And did they not know who Lennett Anderson is?!?

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social care to comment on why or if mainstream media seem disinterested in this subject. Seems it has possible ramifications for ALL media #cbc #ctv #global

Some students left scrambling as Tim Houston’s budget cuts axe their summer jobs reported by @mmughees.bsky.social

Or even a single article lol. Whatever man. Guess the right-wing campaign to make me seen as an imperfect victim by the broader industry is bearing more fruit than I realized. That’s a tough pill to swallow.

Gwendolyn is right, many sites were just starting to do the important work of interpreting community histories in more honest and inclusive ways. And, scholars are currently working with someof these collections. *sigh*

“Art is active, and ‘participation in the arts is a guarantor of other human rights because the first thing that is taken away from vulnerable, unpopular or minority groups is the right to self-expression.’” P. 280 of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Final Report Executive Summary.

Economy? In this war?!

Fun fact: bridge toll removal and 1% HST reduction cost us appx $300 million. All of the devastating cuts in the current budget? $300 million. Is your 1% HST cut worth the loss of tourism, arts & culture, educational quality and wildlife conservation in NS?

Currently distracting myself from the horrors by thinking about how great Janelle James is on Strip Law

A must read. "I can say your government’s disdain for Black people in this province speaks loud and clear through these latest cuts. ...Your actions in the form of these budget cuts are mean and hateful and tell African Nova Scotians that we do not matter in the eyes of your government."

Cleaning up means I find the comics I took from the storage closet at previous safety related employment.

happy 13th anniversary to all who observe

Just removed a gerbil sized hair clog from the tub drain.

Just had my first live fantasy baseball draft, and I can honestly say that I picked baseball players.

i cannot explain why it felt important to do this but it did

hands down the funniest show i've watched in a long time, and perhaps Stephen Root's best role yet.

The NB gov’t wants to privatize my university. Mount Allison is consistently ranked the #1 undergrad uni in Canada. Here is a thread that lists all of the proven and overwhelmingly negative impacts of privatizing a public uni. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

PoPNS calls on Nova Scotia Health to: ▪️cease delivering health information through a chatbot... ▪️update...official policies & guidance on COVID-19 to align with scientific evidence... ▪️and, reallocate resources spent on “artificial intelligence” to addressing tangible needs of patients & staff.

"'If I go into the hospital and I’m the doctor’s second appointment of the day, I wouldn’t expect to be getting different answers about how a virus spreads than the first appointment of the day,' Gannon said." Our Statement on Nova Scotia Health's AI chatbot "Nova" can be found at www.popns.org

Good. Now do Grok for its creation of child sexual abuse materials.

Nova Scotia's Minister of Finance started his budget address with "In a world..." Like a damn movie trailer.

Dear lord, Strip Law is a delight. Every episode is packed with incredible lines. It brings me such joy.

At least Gretzky is happy.

According to the provincial data, 109 Nova Scotians died of Covid in 2025. That’s more than in 2020 (65) or 2021 (46). Masks save lives.

The Halifax Forum Redevelopment was approved by 5 HRM Councils; it is already fully in motion. It is a full tear down and a new building. The plan is for doors to open in 2030. Raise your voice. Let’s make sure the Forum remains a priority. Your voice matters. Use it before March 5.

Strip Law is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen! Do yourselves a favour and watch it all on Netflix, so we can all get more laughter and joy!

This story is such a gut punch and adds another layer of tragedy to the shooting. Canada’s proposed Online Harms Bill died on the order paper with the prorogation of Parliament in 2025. It needs to be brought back and strengthened immediately.

Between this and Radio Canada using an innocent woman’s photo for their tumbler ridge shooting because a far right nazi rag had used it really reflecting a complete clown show at the national broadcaster if not an outright infection.

This is an extremely alarming story and it's time that Canada had some sort of, I dunno, Minister Of AI, who could be in charge of regulating and legislating... Oh we do have a Minister of AI? Oh he spent the days before the shooting advocating for MORE use of AI and "AI For All"?

👀 Tim Houston's big push to destroy Nova Scotia. Run up a massive deficit and use it as an excuse to decimate ✨️everything✨️

www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov... “It’s going to add to the traffic congestion in this already busy city and put pressure on parking, where we don’t have parking already, and it’s going to cause a lot of headaches,” said Mullen.

It's no secret that Nova Scotians are basically paying for this stupid boat, but I wonder how Nova Scotians would feel about it if more of them knew their tax dollars were directly funding U.S. Customs and Border Protection in this current moment.

If you don't like the traffic in #halifax the premier is making it worse. All NS public servants back in office full time 20 April. Thank Tim for the extra time it takes to get around.

If you're tired of perpetual illness, please send a letter to your NS MLA & the Minister of Ed. We could improve everyone's standard of living if we took indoor air quality seriously. You can find your MLAs email address here: nslegislature.ca/members/prof...

The overwhelming majority of mass shooting perpetrators in Canada are white and Christian.

The Godfather is a funnier movie than I remembered.

A thousand times yes. I wish I could walk my kid to school and have drivers stop at stop signs.

This is all an FU to anyone who doesn't have a car. This all proliferates car ownership and declining affordability of living in this city
