Hey folks. I am blowing out all of my paper prints. 50% off all 53 different prints. There will be no more reorders on stock so once they're gone, they're gone. Shipping in Canada is $25 so buy 2+ Sorry no US orders. I can ship to Europe & Mexico. earthskyart.ca/product-cate...

Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

WTF? The stories just keep getting worse.

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.” Nailed it.

Q: “Are you worried all this pushback could provoke Trump to follow-through with sending the National Guard?” MAYOR @brandon4chicago.bsky.social Johnson: “As a descendant of slaves, can you imagine if my ancestors had that same rationale?“

FFS. I mean it's not surprising and given the gutting to intelligence agencies, who knows how reliable the intel is anyway. The remaining Four Eyes better have a robust plan because the US is leaving itself wide open to its enemies, and the rest of us as well.

“MAGA and their Conservative collaborators are the biggest threat to Canada right now. The MAGA cancer has been growing within Canada for years, aided by a Conservative Party whose ideology is dominated by American-funded libertarian think tanks that traffic in disinformation.” @taylornoakes.com

“Never before has a Canadian politician shared so much disinformation unchecked. As Pierre Poilievre tries to weasel his way back into Parliament, our legacy media still refuses to call out his lies or question his ties to Canada Proud, who ran disinformation campaigns targeting our prime minister.”

Sir Rod Stewart finished a show recently by adding something he found on the Internet. The fact that Americans didn’t fight back about the 51st state blather was particularly galling - Greenland got more respect.

The price of misinformation: the health and lives of our children.

This is so infuriating. Ottawa should absolutely reintroduce safe drinking water legislation.

“A major ocean current in the Southern Hemisphere has reversed direction for the first time in recorded history, in what climatologists are calling a ‘catastrophic’ tipping point in the global climate system.” #ClimateCrisis

We older folks will remember (but you younger folks may be interested to hear) the short song Plane Wreck at Los Gatos, by Woody Guthrie. It's named for a 1948 plane crash near Fresno that killed 28 migrant farm workers who were being deported. Woody's son Arlo & ... 🧵1/3 youtu.be/qu-duTWccyI?...

I’ll say it again — Metro Vancouver is THE North American hotbed for transit-oriented development. No other North American region comes close. Today was DAY 1 of 4 days of “deep dives” where I’m touring municipal leaders from Ontario, riding skytrain lines & digging into transformed station areas.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

This is wild and kinda cool...

This is exactly what needs to happen.

We need to support indie media so the well-funded disinformation peddlers don't have the loudest voices. Great read about the chaos at the English debate.

They were all so sure it was all talk. I'd laugh but they fucked all of us.

By the midterms, it will be too late...

A lot has happened in 6 weeks. Premiers conference asking us to spend money in the country. Trudeau's hot mic "the US is serious.' Trudeau's war address. Carney s war address. But we changed the landscape of the grocery stores in less than two months. Just by our actions.

Canada must own its digital destiny. A national, Blackberry-powered, ultra-secure telecom network will make us the global leader in cybersecurity and innovation. No more foreign control. No more overpriced, insecure service. The future is ours, if we want it. proconsul.ghost.io/project-elbo...

As Europe & the world look at Ukraine as the canary in the coalmine of Putin's intent, others are now looking at Canada in the same light. We are in dangerous territory. Every USian should share this with those who think Krasnov's plan is a good idea. #ElbowsUp youtu.be/yG9kCNnyMTQ?...

This gets at something that hasn’t sat well with me, from Jon Stewart’s “labradoodle of allies” comment onwards. Even many liberal Americans often don’t take Canada seriously, and so threats to our sovereignty aren’t being taken seriously either #cdnpoli apple.news/A4AUgKSmUQUW...

This is why I love Toronto 😉

BREAKING: Maxine Waters just dropped the bomb—Elon Musk ‘may have’ hacked the election for Trump. We’re living in a tech-controlled dictatorship, not a democracy.

As the United States launches an imperialist trade war against Canada and Mexico, it’s time for countries to come together to form an alliance against the US — and that includes rapidly curtailing their dependence on Silicon Valley. The US can’t be allowed to get away with this.

Don't pray—learn as much as you can and act. Don't send thoughts—reach out and help directly. Don't have faith—be responsible for yourself. Don't hope—take action and make things happen. Fortune favors those who don't rely on absurd beliefs and try to outsource their destiny.

I spent an afternoon at Parkdale Junior & Senior Public School, where @sistematoronto.bsky.social runs an intensive after-school music program for kids. For parents and educators, it's an exemplary model of what cost- and barrier-free education looks like. www.thestar.com/entertainmen...

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent. “It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up. “A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.” @kyivindependent.com

Have courage Stand up to bullies Be like President Zelenskyy

This is exactly what's going on, and the rest of the world needs to understand what we're dealing with.

It's so frustrating living here when all the urban people vote red or orange and all the rural/suburban/exhurban people are awash in FB memes.

@tylerwatt.bsky.social Congratulations on your well deserved win!

The president of the United States is using AI slop to sell war crimes and a potential genocide he considers a real estate deal. It is pitching ethnic cleansing with a meme.

Although this is not a surprise, it's still a f*cking tragedy.

Nate does good work in bringing corruption to light. Please help if you can!

Last night, we broke the news that the top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its election security work and is reviewing everything it has done to help state and local officials secure their elections for the past eight years. https://wrd.cm/3QkfGh3
