every day I wake up and read a headline that sounds like something a concussed writer for The Simpsons would come up with while trying to make an intentionally stupid joke about George Orwell

imagine a world where you can eat a waffle for breakfast and not be a huge cunt about it

Grim day in Manchester. And on the holiest day of the year for the Jewish community. This is ugly. Just so ugly. Praying that no more harm is perpetuated in the name of hate. My God. We’re going backwards.

How seriously is Canada taking Israel's genocide of Palestinians? Well – for his CEO of military procurement, Carney appointed a man who helped govern billions in investments in companies that sold weapons to that genocide. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

devs & mods aren’t our friends. they can try to be *friendly* but ultimately, they’re an online equivalent of HR of an org that lacks a union i think we all know how that goes

As happy as I am to see this article by Eric Andrew-Gee in @theglobeandmail.com, I pitched it to them months ago Arts editor Judith Pereira was enthusiastic when I approached her with the proposal. Then she ghosted me. Another shitty day in #cdnmedia www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

it's fairly unbecoming to see the owners of a website crash out publicly on said site; lowtax became a meme for a reason

the CEO of this site is trolling us because we asked for a transphobe -- someone who has done real harm to us -- to be removed from her platform. this sends a message to bad actors: not only will bluesky shield you, leadership will laugh about it. @jay.bsky.team needs to go. this is unsafe shit.

🚨Raid on Chicago apartment complex 🚨 10/1 Video here was taken by the Department of Homeland Security — They are proud of rounding up brown people in the middle of the night. Additional information provided in next post. 1/2

IMAGINE SENDING 20 WARSHIPS TO INTERCEPT BOATS CARRYING MILK POWDER AND BABY FORMULA FOR STARVING CHILDREN. THIS IS THE GREATEST EVIL EXISTING IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW!!!!!

Israel Foreign Ministry: "The Hamas-Sumud Provocation Ended"

Here's the thing, I'm all for the economic arguments for less cars, but part of me doesn't want to make them. Part of me is like "because cars pollute and they take up too much space and they're fucking dangerous"

Keep this in mind when people claim cars mean business — closing Central #Madrid to cars over holidays resulted in a 9.5% boost in retail spending on its main shopping street: STUDY. There was also a 71% drop in air pollution. Via @carltonreid.com in @forbes.com. #citymakingmath #citiesforpeople

Go you good thing.

A new NDP leadership candidate is talking about workers and class politics, and drawing on his credibility as a labour leader. Have we got a live one, here? www.davidmoscrop.com/p/the-ndp-le...

Once again: Hegseth is the exact type of guy The Art of War was written for, which means he will never read it

I'm not seeing a single mention of the six Canadians on the Sumud Flotilla in any major news outlets.

This week’s comic is now up on @dailykos.com - A Busy, Busy Day in Washington, DC - www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

You guys were suspending people for saying "rest in piss" 2 weeks ago. How is that a ToS violation, but Jesse Singal using your platform to harass trans people isn't? This isn't on the level. You play fast and loose with the ToS based on who you like and dislike, and you know you're doing it.

FAA has issued MASSIVE temporary flight restriction which prohibits drones (i.e., photography) over Chicago. They did similar around federal buildings in Los Angeles since June protests, but really no comparison... Chicago's TFR covers 900x more area than ones in LA! 🧵👇 tfr.faa.gov/tfr3/?page=d...

How many commercial/investment class landlords would we need to string up to accomplish the same outcome? I bet less that 3-4 million.

Folks, read every word of this.

Honestly, the easiest thing in the world for Democrats to say on immigration is that they agree with Ronald Reagan that undocumented migrants who have been here for years should have amnesty and a pathway to citizenship. Make them say that Reagan was wrong. (Of course, fuck Reagan generally.)

"Turkey’s foreign ministry described the interception as a “terrorist act... which targeted civilians acting peacefully,” while Colombian President Gustavo Petro booted the entire Israeli diplomatic delegation from his country immediately following the news. 1/2 www.commondreams.org/news/israel-...

Awful beyond measure.

The idea that being a refugee is somehow a “golden ticket” is genuinely awful. These are people who the government have recognised are in need of protection. Do they think people chose that? That that’s what people wanted? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Separating the children from the adults. The women from the men. Did they tattoo them?

INSANE

I hate this provincial government with every fibre of my being. I wish horrors upon them. www.lapresse.ca/actualites/p...

"Hey when are you gonna fix your website?" "We actually don't want the new censorship rules, can you just introduce more detailed adult content tags?" "When are you going to ban this transphobe known for doxxing children?" "Can you stop banning palestinians for no good reason?" Jay:

🚨 UPDATE: Mango, Seulle, Mikeno, All In, Karma and Oxygono declared Emergency

Drivers cannot be expected to look for oncoming #ottbike traffic in two directions! Especially when going straight through O'Connor during signed prohibited hours! That's just unreasonable! At least she gave me the cute wave while doing a dangerous and illegal move!

I have bad thoughts in my head. How this is going to play out: they will board and arrest the well known activists/their vessels and they will kill/sink the other boats.

Greta Thunberg is gearresteerd door Israël. In internationale wateren. Waanzin.

Ohh so it's a "Get you fired for being wrong" level of bad. Good of them to announce that.

If Israel kills Greta Thunberg I’m gonna haunt every German who posted that goddamn octopus stuffed animal

I quite like this song open.spotify.com/track/7wbSp6...

"Katz also said that this was the Palestinians' 'last warning' to leave Gaza City, adding that anyone who remains will be considered 'terrorists or terrorist supporters.'" Gaza City "is 5,000 years old." "An estimated 500,000 Palestinians remain." #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Genocide #EthnicCleansing

"A computer can never be [𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘷𝘪𝘰𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯], therefore a computer must never make a [𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨] decision"

“Expanding the average car length from 5 meters (16.4 ft) to 5.5 meters (18 ft) decreases street parking spots by 9.3%, while an additional expansion to 6m (19.7 ft) causes a further loss of 7%…the growing share of larger vehicles has caused many on-street parking spots to effectively disappear.”

Once in a while I flash back to an absolute horrible experience I had in Hollywood and then I realize all of the people involved signed those "we are still pro genocide" letters. It's like finding out you worked with a bunch of people who all had white hoods in their lockers.

“MTA and Gateway Development Corporation officials never even had a chance to comply with the rule, since Duffy only issued it last night.” — nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/10/01/t...

OMB Director Russell Voight says that US DOT will announce that the federal government is "pausing" funding for both Gateway and the Second Avenue Subway because of "unconstitutional DEI principles" -- x.com/russvought/s...
