Goodbye, get lost, and we'll see you soon.

"Got the picture of the birds you asked for boss" "Thanks" "Real sexy like you wanted" "Uhh ??"

Louis Lingg was the youngest haymarket defendant. He had a watertight alibi: he couldn't have thrown the bomb, because he'd been at home with his friends making bombs. He spoke to the court with nothing but contempt. He told them:

The speech he gave at Haymarket included: "You are called upon to defend yourselves, your lives, your future. What matters it whether you kill yourselves with work to get a little relief, or die on the battlefield resisting the enemy? What is the difference?

“There is no union without workers, and there are no free workers without a union." —Pope Francis. Happy May Day.

Happy International Workers Day! I'm spending my day benefitting from all the work done in our healthcare system. ✊️✊️✊️

#WRcouncil update: mayoral seat in Woolwich will be an open contest.

SCOOP: I attended the launch of David Parker’s Centurion Project last night. I happened to step outside when an Elections Alberta investigator and the cops arrived. open.substack.com/pub/theorcha...

I need you to understand how FUCKING INSANE this story Jeremy broke is. The separatists legally obtained Alberta electoral data....and then proceeded to PUBLISH IT AS A SEARCHABLE DATABASE WITH THE NAMES AND ADDRESSES OF OVER HALF OF THE POPULATION OF THE PROVINCE OF ALBERTA!!!!!

A judge has already granted an injunction to take down the website, but Jesus Christ! Who saw this database in the interim? What about women with ex-partners (or anyone!) who stalk them? What about public figures with privacy and safety concerns?? This is fucking WILD. Subscribe to Jeremy's work!

This is a cold civil war. There is no more territory to expand as a release valve, there’s no Kansas-Nebraska Acts and more Indians to force onto reservations; the only frontiers are inward and slave power is forcing its hand to tilt the scales while it still can.

So I don't think it's helpful when people try to downplay the existence of polarization or to claim it's only only a 'them' problem. Polarization is a problem that has a solution: Don't be a fascist, stop lying, make democracy work better.

I read some words by Cory Doctorow when I was but a wee squatter girl writing bad zines: what an artist should fear isn't piracy. It's obscurity. Those words stuck with me and have served me well.

Another way to support authors is by requesting public libraries to purchase books they don’t have on the shelves. My library allows up to 3 purchase suggestions per month per user.

Reminder that this headline isn't true -- the CPP was a Canadian investment agency until the 90s when it was handed over to global markets.

the natural move from “bad people deserve state violence” to “victims of state violence must have been bad people.”

This is literally madness and we cannot let this happen. It will transform Canada in to a shelled out hellscape, in the service of a dead empire's whims.

In the 16 weeks since the Ford government made our city turn off speed cameras, compliance went from 87% to roughly 40%. Just last week, someone drove so fast in a school zone, that they flipped their car. This policy is actively putting kids in danger.

Anand when a Canadian woman is killed by a random gunman in Mexico: I will move mountains to discover everything related. Anand when a Canadian man is killed by Israel in Lebanon: Damn this sucks. Let's make sure we all stay cool in the future.

James Lindsay is also one of the biggest voices pushing “Cultural Marxism,” a term arising from the Nazi term “cultural Bolsevism”… itself an antisemitic conspiracy theory

Shapiro was one of the influencers who Alexandre Bissonnette was watching in the weeks before his massacre.

Now let’s get him to leave regional chairs elected and accountable to voters in the region

On Wednesday, the IDF hit the same target four times to kill as many medics who’d rushed to the site to help as possible.

Maybe the first Pope who could feasibly stream Among Us with AOC

Orbán’s electoral defeat is not simply some abstract thing happening in a far away country overseas Orbán’s government played a big role in convening the international far-right. Groups funded by Orbán’s gov’t even sponsored Canadian Conservative MPs to attend ultra social conservative conferences:

it's so funny to complain about the Pope being "weak on crime". he is the ostensible mouthpiece of a God whose whole thing is forgiving sins. it's technically his job to be weak on crime.

Several of us on Council made attempts to get this project back on track. Costs sky rocketed since this was first approved. And a certain communications centre is now taking up our debt room. I’m optimistic about the next steps. We owe it to the community to get displaced residents home.

If I travelled through time to the year 2016 and told 2016 Me that this would be what the Liberal Government will look like in the year 2026, I would ask 2026 Me if I was high on shrooms

In 2016, now Liberal MP Marilyn Gladu praised Donald Trump for having “restored freedom of speech to America”

if a position of authority can be misused in this way, that position of authority should not exist. It's clearly not enough to simply change who is in that position, no more than praying that the next king be better than the last.

Oh my god. The Prime Minister's social media account puts out a post reflecting on the horrors of one genocide, hours after refused to explicitly condemn the threat of another. (Not to mention the failure to close loopholes that see Canadian companies arm yet another genocide -- in Gaza)

A friendly reminder that feeling unsafe doesn’t mean we’re in actual danger. If the sight of poverty makes you uncomfortable, because suspicious, please call for a stronger social safety net, not for increased policing.

in the 90s we wisely quarantined youth pastor brain to 10:30 am on Sunday mornings in the church basement. Nobody knows for sure when the containment breach happened but the impact has been catastrophic.

Actually, one might argue Adam and Eve were the original victims of cancel culture at the hands of a woke and vengeful God

“The vacancy rate for downtown office space in Waterloo Region remains among the highest in Canada.” Tell me again why we’re building out an over-priced police Communications Centre then? #Policing #WRcouncil www.therecord.com/business/rea...

tbh watching cis people get arrested on trans people's behalf is more heartening than I would have realized. It often feels like it's just us, when the going gets tough. If private businesses risk themselves to continue to allow trans people use of the correct restroom, it'll mean a lot too.

Yoshi is a male dinosaur who lays eggs. Stop and think.

Finally, someone weighs in about why the heck Craig is even going on about this and that person is surprisingly Mayor Vrbanovic, calling a point of order. "there was not a single mention of police or police budgets this evening. We were talking about a policy document that's before this council."

Yes, please! #WatCouncil buff.ly/GnFuqrj

this is similar to my belief that all drugs should be legal, but only purchasable in plain white packaging from a government store staffed by middle-aged nurses hired for their ability to look disappointed in you.

Don't threaten me with a good time Stephen Miller

Doug Ford's ridiculous decisions have me agreeing with Regional Councillor Doug Craig once again. “It’s diluting local democracy,” Craig said. #WatReg #WRcouncil www.therecord.com/news/waterlo...

The BC NDP has made it clear. Extraction before reconciliation. The mask is off.
