I'm old enough to remember when the Canadian Progressive Conservatives ran an unflattering ad about Jean Chretien, and then they were decimated in the 1993 election www.cbc.ca/archives/the...

I only get a half hour for lunch. This just ate 10 mins

Big favour to ask. Please help my girls out and vote for Vancouver Female Ice hockey Association in the Kruger Big Assist Award. This award money, 75 000 dollars, will go to making hockey more affordable and more accessible to more families ! mykrugerproducts.ca/en-ca/campai... #canucks

These look an awful lot like grenades dressed up as eggs, combined with a message of "hope, renewal, and atonement". Yeesh.

CANADIANS Please consider signing Elizabeth May's petition to have the federal government recognize endometriosis and adenomyosis as part of the disability law in Canada. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

@dailybeanspod.com I finished listening to yesterday's episode today and when I got to the "c&nt sandwich" comment, I nearly spit out my coffee 😂😂😂 @muellershewrote.com

Canada Lives Because…

The biggest myth in the US is that the Civil War ended. It didn't. It was just fought by other means, mainly policy and law.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Reminder for BC folk: If you struggle with mental health, ADHD, etc in British Columbia, the MSP covers access to mind-space.ca. They have numerous mental health Zoom group therapy programs you can take from home. I’ve found it really helpful, and it’s my second course.

Venezuela isn't about fentanyl or national security. It's about oil and Epstein.

So this is brilliant, if somewhat cheesy, and the cobra chickens at the end are totally worth waiting for: youtu.be/7I_n09nS6aU?...

We are a country whose Constitution, according to the Supreme Court, gives our own presidents immunity for crimes committed while in office, but we will prosecute presidents of other countries for alleged crimes and invade them to execute arrest warrants.

Putting this out there: Fascists tend to ally with big business (this is why we have BMW, Volkswagen, Fiat). The difference here is that the OG fascists actually put money into the economy to help build factories, but here expects business to foot the bill with potential payments to come later.

So, the Mitch McConnell of Venezuela?

The attack on Venezuela is simply trump wagging the dog. Focus on the Epstein files. Venezuela is, for now, a distraction.

Look, Canadians wage war in one of two ways: WWI or the Whiskey War. This week we demolished Jim Beam and CBS.

Do better @nytimes.com . You used the be the paper of record. This is shameful:

I'm calling my reps and telling them I have to assume they're pedophiles or accomplices of pedophiles until they call for immediate impeachment. You can find your own reps here: reps.fyi

Catching up with "murder in a small town". It's filmed in Gibsons, BC, as a stand-in for a fictional town in the PNW (also named Gibsons). Weirdest line: "He wanted me to secure a vehicle, and then wanted me to drive him to Canada."

Effectively immediately, B.C. employers "cannot ask for a sick note for a worker’s first two health-related, short-term absences of five consecutive days or fewer in a calendar year." news.gov.bc.ca/releases/202...

Standing in line at Tim Hortons at @yvrairport.bsky.social and missing the pandemic where everyone stood six feet away from the person in front of them

Look, I'm Canadian. We burned the white house down, and even *I* know you don't fuck with Chicago.

I need a mug that says, "It can only good happen."

On Prime, I accidentally started a 2014 version of "Hercules" with The Rock as the titular character. At the beginning it gave me this piece of trivia. I have no idea how to feel about this:

Ok, everyone. Close up and go home. @ndrew.bsky.social won the internet 7 hours ago

It is less expensive to take @hulloferries.bsky.social from Vancouver to Nanaimo and rent a car in Nanaimo rather than taking @bcferries.bsky.social with my own car. Not by a lot, but still. $252 vs $243. Faster ferry ride? Yes, please.

When you're watching a movie and they use the Teams message sound:

Paging @angrystaffer.bsky.social . Please pick up a white courtesy phone.

The GOP just passed a bill most of them vehemently disagree with — and that they know is going to harm their constituents — because they’re afraid of Trump. Pretty pathetic stuff.

Trump choosing the “Obama announcing the bin Laden killing” backdrop.

Lil' Marco Rubio looking like he'd rather be anywhere than behind Trump (honestly, I don't blame him)

Kegseth hanging out behind Trump, trying to look not-drunk:

@muellershewrote.com, @stevevladeck.bsky.social @annabower.bsky.social is this correct?

Mic drop for @charlotteclymer.bsky.social

I said it would get worse very quickly. By tomorrow we will have completed the most dangerous & frightening 24 hours thus far of Trump 2.0. Just to name a few: 1. Defiance of a court order by sending migrants to Sudan without due process (despite clear DP decision SCOTUS) & Dist. CT. order.

Does anyone else really hope that @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social wears jeans, a t-shirt, and birkenstocks work socks to the White House?

I did not have Jason Kenney calling out the Maple MAGA folks on my 2025 bingo card, but here we are.

Well, RFK Jr. is bringing back smallpox. It fits the theme. 🙄

Raising hands for the Cherokee Nation. Hiy hiy!

So why aren't you out there rallying people? I only see @aoc.bsky.social and @sanders.senate.gov gathering crowds.

Rather than trying to launch another Presidential campaign, Gore (and all the other old, white men with power and influence) should be taking a page from @sanders.senate.gov's book: use your power, influence, and privilege to elevate future leaders like @aoc.bsky.social and @repjasmine.bsky.social.

Every year, around this time I see posts like this and it makes me want to re-up this post from @askamanager.org: www.askamanager.org/2018/04/we-n... Incidentally, this person has not only contributed to the ongoing genderizing of administrative professionals day, but also got the day wrong.

Hot take: #Paradise is the prequel to #Silo.

@contrariannews.org Hopefully this message is redundant for you and you can push this out www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

hey, @muellershewrote.bsky.social , @briantylercohen.bsky.social @glennkirschner.bsky.social @weissmann11.bsky.social From a Canadian who managed to escape ICE detention (but only by involving the media) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
