It’s been a while Bluesky. Back just in time for #Caturday. Sprite the fearless, guarding the chicken coop from the roof.

Perfectly labelled. #caturday #CatsOfBluesky

This is the most-read piece on @theatlantic.com. It should be the most-read piece. You should all read it, even though it may make you sad. Here’s a gift link so you can read it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

“I don’t want to wear a mask” I can’t force you. What I can do is tell you some of the things I “don’t want to do” that I’m forced to do because of my illnesses If masking could have eliminated my suffering - I would never be without one 🧵 on prevention, being the exception & chronic illness

Wow. This is crazy.

You don’t say …

Good for Jared for speaking up. Disgusting that it happened in the first place.

PM Trudeau going to a Taylor Swift concert with his daughter isn't the scandal Poilievre's refusal to get a security clearance is the scandal Just saying 🤷🏽‍♂️

Cool.

Less shocked by Trump's tariff tweets than I am by the number of Canadians rushing to sanewash them. The amount of fentanyl that crosses the US-Canadian border is basically homeopathic! This isn't a serious demand! You don't have to be stupid in public!

Yes. This. 👇

This is eerily specific. And accurate.

Wishing I lived in Winnipeg - one of the last of the non-Postmedia newspapers in Canada. Not sure if folks in the ‘Peg know how lucky they are. Maybe that’s why Manitobans haven’t succumbed to the Canada-is-broken sloganeers.

A Stanford study once concluded with a statement that most of our childhood beliefs stay with us for life unless we actively seek to rewrite them. I actively started rewriting mine in 1986. I pull all the major categories of my beliefs back up every couple of years.

Chilling 🧵 summarizing the #Vossische1933f chronicle so far; the author is scanning and skeeting a 1933 German daily paper as an everyday German living through the days leading up to the Nazis seizing power.

Comfy kitty #caturday

Columnists suddenly concerned about opinions on BlueSky but not concerned about the viciousness of opinions on X, tells you everything you need to know about said columnists.

WHAT THE LIBERAL PARTY WISHES THEY COULD SAY - PART ONE

“Everybody is being watched. What we say, what we do, who we talk to. We're told not to fraternize with MPs from the other parties. And that's not normal,” a Conservative source said.

Rise in babies are being born with heart defects. This isn’t lockdowns, obviously, they didn’t even exist then! It’s obviously not school closures. And it’s obviously not masks. So can we start tackling the root cause now? COVID. #SARSCoV2 #LongCovidKids www.news-medical.net/news/2024111...

Trying to convince my family that we should get a kitten. We have a 6-yr-old dog and an 11-yr-old neutered cat who both do fine with other animals. Sending them cute pics of kitties needing a new home hasn’t worked. (Pics attached of last 3 failed attempts.) Any suggestions? What’s worked for you?

Men. This is not a dating site. A follow is NOT an invitation to DM me or any woman. At least 10 males sent me inappropriate DMs today. If I wanted a sugar daddy 🙄 or an affair I sure as hell wouldn’t look on SM. Knock it off.

Happy #Caturday.

Random pic I snapped from our tour bus in NYC. Kinda reminds me of something … do you see it or is it just me? 😎

As an Indian, as someone who lived in Egypt, and who has, modestly, remained committed to my politics despite that, here are my rules for living under fascist regimes: 1) Focus on organizational structure. 1/

One of my favourite surprise finds on my trip to NYC was the Library Walk between Grand Central Station and the New York Public Library. So many gems. This one feels especially right for today.

newskies, some culture notes: don't be a jerk don't quote-skeet to dunk on ppl don't do stuff for clout / clicks don't argue with dinguses, just mute/block/report (this is NOT a nazi bar) amplify good folks cheer ppl on we're glad to cheer you & your work on you are not a brand be a human being
