If they can drive people out of rural spaces, or make them so desperate that they’ll accept any job at any pay rate, they can bring in large corporate farms and there is no one to protest the environmental impacts or force them to pay their fair share in taxes.

Why aren’t we talking about the Monks walking from Texas to Washington D.C. to peacefully protest the Trump administration’s inhuman acts? Especially rally since they were hit by a car AND many are still going. Where is @cnn.com, @nbcnews.com, @apnews.com, @cbsnews.com, and all the rest?

Yes! and Canada should do the same for the very same reasons.

It is surprising to me that none of the major platforms have actual _parental control_ features so that we can limit the amount of time that our parents can spend online, and which apps they’re allowed to use. I don’t worry about my teenager’s use of the internet at all, just my octogenarian dad’s.

In response to Harper’s former speech writer: FUCK THAT!

It is DISGUSTING that Palestine Action is even considered a terrorist organisation. It is patently NOT a terrorist organisation. If these activists are allowed to die the UK government will have blood on its hands.

The Public Health Agency of Canada is reporting a fifth hospitalization in an E. coli outbreak linked to recalled Pillsbury brand Pizza Pops.

We have come full circle from "of course we only use AI for prototypes" over "AI is amazing but obviously it needs experts checking on the output and extensive refacoring" to "let's just ship the slop".

Official data is in today, and US solar continues to grow rapidly, with generation up 21% compared to last year!

To Prez, this remains one of best community notes of all time. To prove we can’t be beaten this idiot tweets a picture of 5 of our warships, 4 of which had been sunk. The remaining is probably now out of action. I am surrounded by idiocy

Buffalonians, go try these places! Meet our new neighbors, eat tasty food, get over whatever stigma you associate with the East Side. Here's a map to get you started. #Buffalo www.google.com/maps/search/...

So this whole "editorial" is garbage, but I want to note that she goes on to suggest three books by white men to "diversify your reading." The three authors she suggests died in 1982, 1963, and 1961. If you want to solve the made-up problem of a lack of opportunities for contemporary white dudes...

i got my husband @kimkelly.bsky.social’s book for xmas as he’s been depressed over noam chomsky & he hasn’t put it down so here’s your reminder to support one of the most important writers & activists of our generation

It did not "go viral". It was intentionally filmed and disseminated using a network of coordinated bots, amplified by an algorithm designed to spread this kind of content quickly. This was a harassment campaign, intended to silence everyone. Call it what it is.

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

Russia just bombed the main highway leading into Kharkiv - heavy traffic with families returning home after Christmas - cars are burning with people in them. And we discuss signing something with them?

I think we shouldn’t stop asking why a failed real estate developer and the president’s son-in-law are considered the best choices to negotiate peace between Ukraine and Russia.

I began this story focused on the weird lies about Hurricane Helene but became very disturbed at how prevalent this pseudo-environmentalism is. The movement blocks real policy to curb climate catastrophes.

I can only find a single article that has reported on Anna Liedtke's testimony in the entire German press. A German journalist was raped by Israeli soldiers, and all major press outlets are ignoring it.

Are there valid uses for smart glasses? Yes. Are they mostly going to be used to perv? I'm thinking also yes.

Toronto motorists: There is a snowstorm. If you want to drive more than 20km/hr in the city, stay home and play Mario Kart.

For me as a Ukrainian today is a glorious day: today , 34 years ago , USSR has finally collapsed.

The @theatlantic.com claims that Canadians will use "treachery" to make America and its media look "silly". No, we are a democratic people who hate thugs and their pusillanimous enablers. Deal with it.

The school’s and school lands that Paul Calandra and Doug Ford’s government are actively selling off across Ontario are also playgrounds, green spaces for children to play upon after hours, along with residents. Not only are Doug Ford & gov’t selling off conservation & provincial park green spaces .

“Galen Weston wants ALL the public wealth and Doug Ford has been using federal health payments to enrich his buddies and funders, so Ontario NEEDS to make a profit on your illnesses and disability so you’re all going to get really sick.”

The Doug Ford government dropped tire recycling targets, but consumers are still paying eco fees on tires, and there have been job losses for those who used to collect and recycle tires. This is horrible for both the environment and for workers. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

“We were transferred from one prison to another, and during the strip searches I was raped.” That’s what German journalist Anna Liedtke, who was abducted by Israel from the freedom flotilla boat Conscience, says Israeli soldiers did to her while she was being held in captivity.

The Daily News is spot on. www.nydailynews.com/2025/12/26/t...

abolish ice. theres no middle road on this and democrats will have to be held to it.

It is truly inconceivable that Netanyahu and his allies believe Israel has any moral high ground. New footage of Jabalia in Gaza - rubble.

Your Ontario tax dollars at work* *Lying to you to score partisan political points

If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to get more involved in fighting creeping Christofascism, clear your schedule on January 10. The last time these ding dongs tried to march at Christie Pits they were outnumbered 10-1. I bet we can do better than that this time. #Toronto #CounterProtest

The wife of the 44 year-old man who died this week in Edmonton after waiting 8 hrs in the ER with chest pain was told by hospital security staff she was "being rude" Are you supposed to just be super calm & polite while your spouse dies a preventable death in the hospital?

This is a tragic event, and my heart goes out to the pt's family. globalnews.ca/news/1... 1/14

BREAKING: Doctors warn of surging flu cases as 1,900 Americans have died, including children Professor Andrew Pekosz of Johns Hopkins said subclade K may evade immunity, increasing vulnerability to infection.

December 25, 1956: The Ku Klux Klan placed 16 sticks of dynamite under the bedroom window of civil rights activist Fred Shuttlesworth, who was asleep at the time. Shuttlesworth awakened in time to save himself and his family, but the house was destroyed.

Apples, oranges and bananas are sold in abundance in supermarkets throughout the country. But some say the most American fruit is one you’ll likely never see in the produce department, and it’s one you’ve probably never heard of. https://to.pbs.org/4o9epsl

In elementary school, as a progressive, I was told by a friend that the Earth was an ovoid spheroid. This was obviously insane to me. I can tell the world is flat by sight with high (though not perfect) reliability. So the Earth is flat.

May this Christmas be Capitalism's Last Seen in Vancouver.

The government failed at actually redacting the Epstein files because DOGE cancelled the feds adobe acrobat premium subscription is the funniest shit.

UN’s Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese: “I truly hope that people will stay calm, will not panic, and will remember that the international community is made of 193 states, and this is the time to give the US what it has been looking for – isolation!”

“Pope Leo said in a Christmas Eve sermon on Wednesday that the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn should remind Christians that refusing to help the poor & strangers today is tantamount to rejecting God himself.” Obvious to any REAL Christian. #MerryChristmas
