What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible. Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

apparently The Youth are using one AI program to write their essays and then a other AI program to "humanize" the first AI's writing to make it seem more real and I just am starting to believe the Internet needs a time out to really think about what it's done

Angus: This is a guy who showed an AI video of himself dumping diarrhea on his own citizens. So the fact that he’s freaking out because we showed a video that just had Ronald Reagan speaking shows he’s not trustworthy.

The president announces an arbitrary price hike on Americans because his feelings are hurt by an ad accurately quoting Ronald Reagan’s criticism of tariffs

I'll bet the #BlueJays have a whole new generation of fans all of a sudden, I feel like a LOT of #Canadians are watching this series.

For anyone interested in catching up with the mess that is the conservative/right-wing side of BC politics: several months ago, Dallas Brodie was kicked out of the Conservative Party because the party could no longer ignore her residential school denialist views/cozying up with IRS denialists. 1/

Arizona announces they are suing Mike Johnson for refusing to swear in Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva. She is the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

Premier says Kelowna area MLA's vaccine comments are 'incomprehensible, unforgivable' #Kelowna

OK guys, post your best signs from today for entry into my Top 15 No Kings Sign Contest.

Protest while you still can.

Not sure how many folks in the #Kelowna, Lake Country, Coldstream riding are here on Bluesky, but if you, like me, aren't thrilled with the MLA, please sign here #okanagan #lakecountrybc www.change.org/p/kelowna-la...

Due to provincial riding changes, my MLA is sadly no longer @harwindersandhu.bsky.social Ran into her today & she really is a good person and works hard for her constituents. Sadly now represented by Tara and her new party that makes me cringe. Petition for byelection www.change.org/p/kelowna-la...

From the outside, it looks like the "No Kings rally" is a "We LOVE America and want to preserve the best parts of it" kinda thing. what do you think?

we're finding out how powerful (or not) the constitution really is. The world is watching, hoping to see the PEOPLE out in historic numbers on Saturday protesting all the corruption, hypocrisy, violence and lies by those in power. It's affecting the rest of the world.

😵

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States. America is on the brink of martial law. Do not be silent.

When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.

just got home from "puppy yoga" with 4 wee daschunds. If you have a chance, go. Good for the soul, that puppy breath smell. :)

Some fighting words from the new leader of the BC Greens

September 30th marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day honours the lost children and survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities. Please join us in wearing orange as an act of solidarity, awareness, and remembrance.

Trump hits Canadian lumber producers with additional 10 per cent tariff (BC)

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

I want to live in cities where a scene like this is fairly unremarkable.

surprised Americans haven't done a full general strike at this point. Ironic that the people who fought for gun rights somehow got convinced to fight FoR the administration... Also, if you are for law and order but not against the top dude being a felon, what does that say?

Jimmy Kimmel's Monologue now has 14.3 MILLION VIEWS on YouTube. It would be a shame for you to share it www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

I might play this as my alarm every morning for the next month

I mean...he said he could and they should himself...

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

Will protecting children from sexual predators be the thing to bring us all together? It's a pretty noble cause, I'd say.

The whole "right" vs. "left" thing is so dumb. We are all human, and have a variety of thoughts, feelings, stances that are a mosaic. Not that simple. Let us not be so easily divided.

Elon Musk is providing a valuable lesson to those who keep promoting AI and the suckers buying in: every time he doesn’t like that Grok is telling the truth he adjusts it, like all AI can be adjusted. It is untrustworthy.

No where in CBCs story does the journalist tell you it is an American military sub-contractor but a little win for us all getting it into the news: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Apparently, the only thing that Americans agree upon is: Release the Epstein Files.

An evacuation order has been issued for several homes at risk of a wildfire east of the airport in Kelowna, B.C. 

As authoritarianism is ramping up, the earlier you limit their tracking of you, the better: -Use duckduckgo as your search engine -Use a VPN -Turn your phone off and on each day -Apple maps has better privacy than google maps (and is good, too) -Transition from gmail to a more secure provider

Pass this on. Bad actors will try to highjack our peaceful movement. Do not engage. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Seeing very dry soils here in the #okanagan and doing my best to help clients hold what little rain we get either in rainbarrels or in the soil. Really need this rain that is predicted, but we need a 3 day solid drizzle. #permaculturedesigner

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

I have a request for all major accounts covering the Orange Reich: Once you've identified the latest outrage/crime/hypocrisy/etc., PLEASE *ALSO* mention things people are doing to fight back. MANY brave people are doing so, but they hardly get ANY air, so they're can't inspire people to join them.

just a felon feloning out loud

“Fixing climate change is too expensive.” Um no. What’s really expensive is doing nothing. Climate disasters cost billions—and those costs are rising fast. Climate solutions save money and lives, as well as building a better world for us all 🌏💚

30 degrees in May in the Okanagan right now. whew, hot.

Thou shalt not call yourself “the law and order party” when your leader is a convicted felon who constantly pardons criminals in exchange for millions of dollars in bribes.

He and the wife both have questionable alliances.
