Honestly if there is a place where teleportation exists, it would be the Waffle House.

Do not go to the United Stated unless you are prepared to be locked up in a concentration camp for completely arbitrary reasons.

This is where all of this is headed. Not only will AI steal material from actual creative humans, the AI companies will then claim that they own the original material that they stole, and use their resources to crush the people they stole from.

Austerity is a vicious cycle. You cut taxes. You cut services to pay for the tax cuts. Declining services make people more resentful of government and paying taxes. You cut taxes some more. You cut services more. Resentment grows…

Having your rights respected so you don't have to litigate is actually better than litigating and winning.

My gas and groceries are up 40%, my health insurance is up 50%, and the president is covering up an elite pedophilia ring. But at least there won't be trans athletes competing in a 2028 Olympic sport that I won't be watching.

Stephen Miller allegedly urged Department of Homeland Security agents to “force confrontations” with protesters in Minneapolis in order to win a “PR battle." trib.al/NcbpdiX

The Mayor is touting the importance of literacy and early access to books, after having led efforts to: 1) spend the library reserve fund on non-library items; 2) reduce library staffing/funding; 3) cut school library staff.

Darn it, the Malaysian restaurant in Moncton closed. Is there anywhere else to get Malaysian food in the Maritimes?

First, the good news. The bathwater has been disposed of.

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

On Tuesday, the jury deliberated for only one day before agreeing that Meta should pay $375 million in civil damages for violating state consumer protections and misleading parents about the safety of its apps.

FRIDAY. NOON. PROVINCE HOUSE. ALL HANDS ON DECK: WE WON'T STOP SINGING! We've been thousands strong before. Can we grow even more, and surround the whole building with song?

In Halifax free transit for kids led to 52.4% reporting using transit as one of their primary ways to get to school, & 75.8% using transit for non-school related travel at least once per week. Over 85% said the transit pass made them feel more independent. The PC government is cutting it anyways.

“The files show the RCMP conducted secret surveillance on hundreds of Indigenous leaders and dozens of organizations through a ‘Native extremism program' between the late 1960s and early 1980s. CBC Indigenous obtained the newly declassified documents through access-to-information requests.”

And yet the current government is pushing hard for increased use of AI.

You know, once a jury has made its decision you are extremely justified in dropping the "allegedly"

Because people sang a song in the gallery…

We had a great time talking to Stella about her career so far and why she chose Halifax!

I love legitimate theatre.

Is it a giant wooden horse

According to Halifax in 2006 75% of people drove and in 2011 it 77% of people drove. But with over a billion dollars in car subsidies we've boosted drivership up to 81%!

I was at a seed swap today and someone was saying it'd be great if there was a map of public fruit/flowering trees. Well, Halifax *does* publish the data but it's not user friendly (data-hrm.hub.arcgis.com/datasets/HRM...) So here's a little map that's more user friendly justbartek.ca/hfxtrees

If you want the expense and inconvenience of living in a big city, with the politics and amenities of a much smaller town, Halifax might be the place for you. www.grandparade.news/p/allan-st-d...

To call this dramatic is an understatement. The lack of support for public transit, science, foreign policy, environmental regulation, First Nations, public health, citizenship and immigration speak volumes about this government's priorities, and the triumph of the urgent over the important.

Today’s @halifaxexaminer.ca features the most @timbousquet.bsky.social article humanly imaginable.

They can afford to pay for political attack ads but can’t afford to pay taxes? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

This reminds me how, during COVID, HRM was asked to pedestrianize some streets so people could actually enjoy being outside, and instead they put up “traffic calming” cones here and there. Then drivers ran them over and destroyed them all, and HRM’s response was more or less “ah well, we tried”.

Get rid of the Strait of Hormuz bike lane.

Maybe if the province funded education properly in the first place, HRM would never have had to step in to foot the bill?

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

As long as it benefits certain segments of the billionaire class, I’m sure they’ll tell you it’s good for the economy.

“I hear you’re an England fan now father”

“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”

I think the beginning of the collapse of western civilization can be traced back to around the time Myth Busters ended and Duck Dynasty started.

I’m waiting for the folks who complained about the carbon tax to complain about the Trump stupidity tax we are currently paying.

Finally watching Gladiator II and these are among the worst opening credits I’ve ever seen

me paying $30 in gas to buy imported things that have been hit with tariffs bc joe rogan is learning about politics at age 58

Since we are dealing in hypotheticals here, the strait of Hormuz is open if the US and Israel had not illegally attacked Iran.

Operation Epstein Fury is going really well I see. www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

I hope he’s paying for this out of his own pocket, because there is literally nothing about his role as MP or leader of the opposition that would require this travel.

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Someone ask Mark Carney why he can’t issue a statement like this.
