Yes I can see the sizeable pro-Klan gamer demographic being very upset about this

Monstrous. "federal agents detained nearly every resident of the 130-unit building—including children and babies—placing them in zip ties and separating them by race into vans for more than two hours early Tuesday morning."

There’s a lot in here that deserves a pull quote, but this is the most egregious. I need people to recognize the gravity of the situation here in Chicago;

You could doomscroll, or you could literally go take a shower and then go to bed earlier than usual. One of those options will make you feel better than the other. You still deserve time to rest and recover.

thetyee.ca/News/2025/10... "If we were to end coal shipping today, probably about 100 of my members would be out of work. But by giving us five years to phase it out, our union and employers can transition to shipping other products mined in Canada." True....but the time to do that was 2005.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... "Bray said: 'I don’t think I’ve ever called Bill O’Reilly a fascist. I don’t remember ever doing that. Of course, if they were actually my students, I’d say, ‘include a citation.’'”

Public safety accounts for half of every property tax dollar. The mayor wants a 0% property tax increase. The police budget can’t be cut. What services will be cut? How many staff will be let go? How much will fees and parking increase? The math isn’t mathing.

Nice to spend time at the BCGEU rally today! @kellyrichmondbc.bsky.social I want to go back to work keeping the people of BC safe. EMCR is facing critical staffing shortages and our wages are not keeping up with the cost of living. @bcnewdemocrats.bsky.social

Big crowd out on the legislature lawn today for a rally in support of striking workers The public sector strike escalated today with the addition of government licensed professionals, members of the Professional Employees Association, per the PEA executive #bcpoli

"Sergio St Carlos" should be a procedural TV show in which every week the sensei helps folks in his community out of a jam. Maybe it's getting Mario to soccer practice when his dad gets an unexpected shift. Maybe it's coordinating an appropriate response to ICE kidnappings. Find out each week.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

queen shit, rest in peace

What a great time to be alive for fans of existential fear and continuous rage

Over 2 million people across Italy have rallied in more than 100 cities for a one-day general strike.

Absolutely heinous.

Who is to blame for the government shutdown? We asked three unvaccinated Kid Rock fans at a cage fighting match in Fort Walton Beach.

"...high coffee and/or tea intake has been linked to a 24% reduction in the risk of cancer progression..." via www.newsweek.com/cancer-drink... From study: "This meta-analysis suggests a protective role for coffee and tea in cancer survival." #TeamCoffee #TeamConfirmationBias

Yes I'm still watching, Netflix, and it's not like you don't have things to be ashamed of.

Thousands and thousands marching through Rome right now to say: Hands off the Flotilla. A whole day of action and general strike tomorrow.

First time listening to the Current in like a month and I had to turn it off after five minutes. Too bad we can't turn Albertan grievance into an energy source. We'd be sorted for centuries.

It’s a shockingly simple question, framed in nationalist (but accurate) terms. Are we going to have a national postal service or are we going to surrender that ground to private, for profit American corporations? #cupw

When a single car crash can gridlock Greater Victoria, it shows the fragility of autocentricity. Walkable neighborhoods, safe cycling routes, and rapid & reliable transit aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re resilience. They give people options, cut congestion, and keep the city moving!

Hey @daniellesmithab.bsky.social, let’s find out first if we're part of the same country, before you come knocking w/ bitumen schemes💸 Laughable “national interest” pitch from a province trying to break up the country. Last thing our climate & coffers can afford is another TMX boondoggle #bcpoli

Eby says “no way”. Just like the BC NDP said “no way” to the TMX pipeline which was then built and cost Canadians $30B+.

Looking for bands like @thepackad.bsky.social but there are no bands like @thepackad.bsky.social .

Vaccination during pregnancy was associated with lowered maternal risks of COVID infection, stillbirth, preterm birth (including a 34% lower risk of severe preterm birth before 28 weeks), neonatal intensive care admission, & congenital anomalies 1/2

Alberta Teachers’ Association members have voted 89.5 per cent to reject the latest contract offer. Turnout for the vote was 94 per cent. 51,000 teachers will go on strike across the province on Oct. 6. Here’s ATA president Jason Schilling announcing the vote result in Edmonton #AbEd #AbLeg

So fundamentally the division between Ezra Klein and TNC, that I can identify, is that Ezra Klein thinks he has a moral duty to tell soothing lies about the dead because he has a large platform and boy do I have big big issues with that

I’m coming around to Eliezer Yudkowsky’s suggestion that we bomb data centers — not because I’m worried about superintelligence, but because these companies are going to send us over the climate cliff if we don’t stop them.

Kind of feels like 90s X-Men: The Animated Series predicted much of our current moment.

Squid Game was dark but we sure all know how to say “Hahm-nee-dah” now.

Horrific: Doctors Without Borders is suspending medical work in Gaza City due to Israel's violence, including airstrikes & tanks less than 1KM from their facilities. Comes same day Netanyahu used his UN speech to scold dozens of nations for accusing him of committing war crimes.

We are running an OPS outside RJH today! Come on down to see what the fuss is about! The government still hasn’t followed through on its commitment to fund three OPS at Island hospitals. #bcpoli #harmreduction

Canadian Forces operations not ‘viable.’

Portland is peaceful. "Antifa" is fictitious. Worldviews vehemently against fascism are ethical and wise. Inciting violence is pathologic.

#VictoriaBC Canada was just one of hundreds of places around the world where people like you came out to #DrawTheLine actions last weekend. #yyj

I can find the BC government nearly $4 billion: 1) Reinstate the carbon tax ($2.8B) 2) Cancel electrification funding for LNG ($200M) 3) Cancel 7 soccer games in Vancouver ($650M) That was easy. Maybe I should be the Minister of Finance.

I spoke with analyst Gil Luria at D.A. Davidson, asking if the capital existed to build OpenAI's promised 17GW of data centers. He said "of course there isn't enough capital for all of this," but "enough capital to do this for a at least a little while longer." www.wheresyoured.at/openai-onetr...
