So deeply unserious. We are very far off the cliff here folks. 🇺🇸

Yeah, man, it was a hard code to crack, but you finally did it.

He really, *really,* wants to be a king. trib.al/z5G2TX0

@babybluetx.bsky.social was recruited to join Turning Point USA as an impressionable young woman. She was just looking for a place to belong & with her conservative Texas roots, it made sense. She exposes the tactics used to target young people to be "conservative." youtu.be/bB5slbyujII?...

But it’s Democrats who need to tone down the rhetoric?!

“It is our message of defiance and resilience.” Gaza’s universities destroyed by Israel pivot to online teaching as they wait to rebuild: www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl... #Gaza

This is because someone high up in OpenAI was called a troll and retains disproportionate angst about it, right?

I joined @andypinsent.bsky.social on CFRA to discuss the worst humanitarian crisis in the world today. CFRA Weekends - Humanitarian crisis in Sudan keeps getting worse, and worse, and worse - 580 CFRA - omny.fm/shows/580-cf...

This evening, as we gathered in virtual community, I reflected on how important it is to remain committed to freeing people from cages. Each release is a miracle. Decarceration is as urgent as ever, and we need new recruits to this cause. It's been an honor to be part of this sacred work.

Can they really not find the bullet, or are they hiding it because they don’t want to admit it was friendly fire?

According to the International Energy Agency, data center energy use will nearly quadruple during this decade. By 2030, it will require the equivalent of 54 nuclear reactors to provide this much power.

A ProPublica analysis of ICE data shows that Trump has detained parents of U.S. citizen children at about twice the rate that Biden did, and moms have been deported four times as often.

Liberal justices said No Kings includes Charles (Except for Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, those dogs are very cute and allowed)

Can someone with more experience with shotguns than I have please tell me if it’s possible to fire one, loaded with buckshot, in a hotel lobby, and the only evidence the FBI has is a spent shell in the barrel? Also, can a shotgun somehow fire a bullet into a bulletproof vest? You get my point.

FDA may finally make it illegal to shock autistic kids as punishment

The overnight motion by Todd Blanche in the ballroom case refers to the incident outside the WHCD as “Saturday’s narrow miss” and claims an “assassin came mere seconds from shooting the president.” It had to have been dictated by Donald. www.muellershewrote.com/p/todd-blanc...

This is what Miller thinks toning down the rhetoric sounds like.

The UNHCR describes the situation in Sudan as the “largest displacement crisis and one of the worst protection emergencies” in the world today. “Some 14 million people have been forced to flee…” www.thewhig.com/opinion/john...

I'll keep reposting this from time to time, as this is an important case for Canadians' political freedoms, and such legal challenges are expensive. Help out if you can. chuffed.org/project/1772...

Every Free Press ad is like "Are you read for contrarian opinions that will challenge you?" but the reality is that Weiss excludes anyone who challenges her opinions, even when they have the journalistic chops that she lacks.

At the most basic level, one party continues to function as an actor in a liberal democracy, whereas Trump and much of his movement, with the eager participation of many Republicans, simply do not. trib.al/p7GGLlB

Donald Trump’s vocabulary is filled with unpresidential insults, labeling Americans as “fascists,” “communists,” “vermin,” and “garbage.” Here’s a glimpse of Trump’s vile rhetoric aimed at his political opponents, immigrants, and journalists. Subscribe to Zeteo.

"The fall in the length of time people enjoy good health had a “huge human and economic cost, with poor health driving people out of the workforce and locking young people out of education, employment and training, adding to the rising cost of welfare"

UK: "People in the UK are spending fewer years in good health than a decade ago, prompting concern that the population’s health is “going backwards”. Britons’ health has declined so much that over 90% now experience illness before reaching the state pension age of 66, a study found.

"Enemy from within." "Communists, Marxists, fascists, radical left thugs, vermin." "Garbage" Somalis, "low IQ people." "She's an evil, sick, crazy, b..." Republicans want the left to tone down the rhetoric. Erm, have they listened to Donald Trump?? Zeteo put together this Trump montage:

You guys keep accusing Platner of being a potential Fetterman and meanwhile Mills is like hold my beer

Inosine Pranobex Linked to Lower Mortality Risk in COVID. Inosine pranobex (IP) was associated with a >20% reduction in COVID mortality risk during the pre-Omicron period and a >60% reduction during the Omicron period. Source: archive.md/ASJrM

I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Tell the CRA to take action: Stop allowing our tax dollars to fund schools supporting the Israeli military. Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Political divide on climate policies is linked to a measurable gap in factual knowledge www.psypost.org/research-lin... "Partisan differences in climate attitudes are associated with knowledge." Sum: right-leaning individuals know less about the facts.

A little more than a year ago, @paperwords.bsky.social received a letter from the US Forest Service detailing plans for a new wildfire recovery project. But a single word caught his eye—and alerted him to a secret, Big Tobacco-style campaign with ramifications for our forests.

Fear of mortality and urgent ballroom need weren’t previously linked in my mind

"Year-over-year return trips by Canadians to [the US] via air and land dropped by 25 per cent in 2025." And when you convert that from Canadian to US percentages it's like a 25,000% decline.

The United States now has the most government restrictions on academic freedom of any high-income country. www.chemistryworld.com/news/academi... Raw data from @vdeminstitute.bsky.social —> academic-freedom-index.net/research/Aca...

Skip the World Cup and any other travel to the US...American citizens are also being held in hideous conditions with no idea when they can be freed. This is a nightmare...do not come here.

Protect yourselves and your loved ones, Never travel the US. Their borders are unsafe, their schools, their cities, their airports are unsafe. There is nothing safe or sane about the US anymore. Like a plague infested country, avoid it!

From CBC News: Canadian detained by ICE for 6 months says he's an 'indefinite' prisoner, has no idea when he'll get out. 58 Canadians are being held by ICE. Avoid all nonessential travel to the United States.

FRIDAY: Workers, students, and families will be calling out of work, walking out of school, and refusing to shop as part of the nationwide day of economic disruption. There are many ways you can help make a difference on May Day: survey.alchemer.com/s3/8705046/i...

For me it began with boorish behaviour from the public. The worst part about movie theatres is the audience.

Mount Allison University students finishing the semester had the chance this weekend to send their unwanted furniture to the food bank instead of the landfill. Couches, desks, kitchen tables & books got a second chance on Saturday. #NewBrunswick www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The violence that killed Binyamin doesn’t come out of nowhere. When our extremist government – including head of police Itamar Ben-Gvir – makes bloodshed and war its preferred mode of operation, the result is a normalization of destruction and death. (4/5)

Trump's losses are piling up: *Fed chair prosecution collapsed *Losing redistricting fight *SCOTUS struck down tariffs *Birthright citizenship push faltering *Iran not breaking *Effort to jail other foes imploding On the pod, @swin24.bsky.social is fun on all this: newrepublic.com/article/2095...
