The fact that Trump interfered and it's a blowout anyway is just perfect.

Pour it into the fascists' wounds!

Democratic Belgium defeats authoritarian United States.

Renata Ford, widow of former Toronto mayor Rob Ford, dies

Foreign interference at the highest level.

Is this anything?

Tamara Lich wasn’t the only one at Pete Hoekstra’s Fourth of July bash I did a head count: Over a dozen Canadian far-right activists and right-wing alternative media personalities, (including from the Juno and Rebel media outlets) got invites to the US ambassador’s official residence

That's just embarrassing.

Dedicated volunteers like Ruth are what make Stampede possible!

Health systems take this stuff extremely seriously. If there's a leak, it's not coming from the provider.

Belgian manager: "You're sure these uniforms won't look like herpes on TV?" Belgian designer: "Yeah, like, 80% sure." Belgian manager: "Print 'em up."

I just want to see the US go all the way now, and have their win have an asterisk next to it for all time

Voters ignored the Nazi tattoo. They ignored his work as a mercenary. They ignored him covering up the Nazi tattoo with another Nazi tattoo. Multiple red flags dismissed and ignored. All those things should have ended his campaign. Now there’s rape allegations. Pick someone else.

So FIFA reversing the Folarin Balogun red card after Donald Trump called Infantino is a total disgrace, and shakes the integrity of the World Cup, and how does everyone involved keep getting away with this? Oh, right. www.thestar.com/sports/socce...

I see all the logos have been removed for FIFA and the game is taking place at Field

If you're going to write a headline that says "his office won't confirm if he's conscious" about that person, you should include a date, because a case could be made that it's been years.

In a recent podcast I expressed my anger at Jamil Jivani's tearing down the spirit of Pride and his derogatory comments about the participants. However, I stepped over the line in making personal cracks about him. It was not acceptable and I apologize.

Actually, raping someone makes you a rapist. And saying this in a country where less than 2% of rapists serve jail time makes you a rape apologist.

Mitch McConnell returning to the Senate:

This LLM appears to be going through @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social automatically and emailing authors its "opinions" on figures/data supplements (scare quotes mandatory). It's a separate thing from QED, which has similar functions for text. Who asked for this??? 🧪 bgpt.pro

All weekends should be four days

About fucking time @warren.senate.gov and I am *incredibly* disappointed in you for waiting til now.

My brother sent me this photo of my first band Létranger back in the day. Me on bass, Andrew Cash on guitar, Pete Duffin on drums.

I wish Calgary would embrace other themed costume weeks like it does Stampede. There should be a week where we dress up like magicians. Another where everyone is now a zebra. It would be good.

I’m just going to say this, if you support a guy with a Nazi tattoo with a history of racist and rape apologist comments you are not left leaning, you just want the tote bag.

Something is clearly going on in Utah, #H5N1 #birdflu wise. 3 newly reported infected herds; 9 since the beginning of June. State total is now 22, national total is 1,158 cases in 19 states. www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-po...

If you follow my #flu pediatric death postings, you'll know I often say that these reports sometimes come to #CDC on a significant delay. Case in point: A death from Feb 2025 was reported to CDC recently. It brings the 2024-25 season tally to a staggering 298 deaths. www.cdc.gov/fluview/surv...

If anyone knows about rampant theft in DC

Maine Dem voters told the party what they want from their Senator. They made clear the policy platform they will vote for and the kind of rhetoric that inspires them. If the party is to replace Platner and win Maine, they’ll have to run someone who is unapologetically left—M4a, trans rights, etc.

The Maillard Reaction is/was a: - reactionary movement during the French Revolution - chemical interaction between amino acids and sugars - alternative rock group from northern Vermont

Probably with the same demands, insults and bullying thuggery that's been used each time. And Rutte's disgusting Trump praising. But no actual action to get involved in stopping Putin's inexorable that to more of Europe.

“End Citizens United, an organization that seeks to reduce the role of big money in politics, rescinded its endorsement of Graham Platner on Monday and called for him to quit his campaign. “The allegations reported today are profoundly disturbing and disqualifying,” said Tiffany Muller”

Why criticize @jonfavs.bsky.social & @jonlovett.bsky.social? Because they make bad calls and get rewarded again and again for them.

Check your timeline to see if the people you follow are of the “we fucking told you so” variety or of the “well, how could we possibly know?” variety and correct course if necessary.

When Ford was asked by a reporter who he was planning to have to pay for the project, he said, “We’ll reach out to the private sector,” Ford said, and added that the province is looking at “all options.”

One person is dead and another was transported to the hospital in an afternoon shooting in Scarborough. Toronto police responded to reports of two people with gunshot wounds in the area of Victoria Park Avenue and Highway 401 around 3:20 p.m., according to a post on X.

Hoekstra needs to learn that no matter what he says, we know he’s a lying sack of shit, this was already proven, the Maroun Family gave $1M to the felon after a meeting with Lutnick to stop the bridge from opening

Gosh, if only there had been some warning signs about Platner 🤦‍♂️ (it was so tiring being told that we had to “get with the program” & ignore the Nazi tattoo & the retweeting of a well known white nationalist & the homophobic, racist, & disablist slurs, & & &)

We may never see the likes of him in the World Cup again

Canada’s North Atlantic allies won out in the federal government’s high-cost hunt for modern submarines, with Prime Minister Mark Carney announcing that Ottawa will buy its new fleet through a German-Norwegian partnership in what could be the largest military purchase in Canadian history.

C.J. Peters, one of the legendary virus hunters of decades past, has died. In 2018, I traveled to his home in Galveston, Tex., where he told me jaw-dropping story after jaw-dropping story. He had an extraordinary brain and was hugely curious. Such a loss. www.statnews.com/2018/02/20/v...

Clinical trial policy got caught up in the Trump administration’s attack on policies related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Republicans in Congress would like to change that. www.statnews.com/2026/07/06/r...

Wind power in Nova Scotia has long struggled to find a route to market, due to its small population base and lack of industrial buyers — but hydrogen generation is expected to drive wind market growth.

If Platner actually stands for any of the political policy issues that he claims to then he would drop out

Oh, come on. I actually kinda liked this guy. Now he's revealing himself to be yet another MAGA-styled prick?

I've blogged a number of times about my grandfather's "snake stones", these supposed magical stones that cure snake bites. I've been working on an anthropological paper about them for decades, and finally got it published in a low level journal: www.scirp.org/journal/pape...
