I have special disdain for the anti inmigrant immigrants.

I’m all for people being able to work remotely and being able to prioritize their health but if you can’t even release a statement that you’re alive then you definitely aren’t fit to serve in the US Senate

So this lady was just charged with 1st-degree murder for killing her two 18-month-old twins. Days after her kids died she was on RFK Jr’s media network saying vaccines did it. When are these anti-vaxxers responsible for the results of the lies they frame as freedom? open.substack.com/pub/rasmusse...

Idk what medical dramas are showing people these days but 84-year-olds don’t wake up from 22 day comas

What did we teach our kids about sport? Have fun Play fair No cheating No hurting people Accept the referee's decision Be gracious in victory, humble in defeat It's not whether you win, it's how you play the game We taught them those things because the lessons transfer to life in general.

Pete Hoekstra has been hitting the Canadian media circuit to gaslight, spread disinformation and play the victim. It's what predators do. I invite him on @meidascanada.ca to have a real discussion. @meidastouch.com youtu.be/lGJw5OYowyw?...

NEW: US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra hosted over a dozen far-right activists and right-wing media personalities at his ‘Fourth of July’ party in Ottawa this weekend The US Embassy says Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich, who was convicted on criminal charges last year, was accredited as a journalist

What a fucking joke!!! The US admin has been targeting our countries lumber, steel, auto, seafood, aluminum, potash, and many other industries! Fuck off and keep fucking off! Republican bill targets Canada's provincial booze bans www.cbc.ca/news/world/p...

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.

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

“According to Canada’s Food Price Report, Quebec families will experience a $1,000 increase on their grocery bills throughout 2026. “Meanwhile, grocery chains like Loblaws, Metro and Sobeys are recording profits of $4.3-billion.”

Mitch McConnell won’t see your mean posts but other hideous, soul-sucking monsters who are still alive might, so please show some more disrespect

You can believe whatever you want, I personally find it somewhat offensive to use a state office to say that a nation made up of people of dozens of religions - and none - stand under a god of your choosing.

“It’s not enough for our position to be that we’re simply going to return to a pre-Trump status quo,” said Senator Chris Van Hollen, Democrat of Maryland, who was chair of Senate Democrats’ campaign arm in 2018. He has endorsed Dr. El-Sayed and other rising progressives this cycle.”

Belgium is going to get TARIFFFFED. 🧇💵🇧🇪

Hey y’all, we have one week left to submit comments about The Regime implementing political review of grants, which would harm us all. For more information about submitting a comment or writing to your elected officials, Defend Public Health has a step by step guide for you right here.

The answer to the loneliness crisis isn't telling people with long Covid & other disabilities to take more health risks. It's creating a society where people don't have to choose between protecting their health & participating in community in the first place

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.

Male Loneliness Crisis temporarily solved by World Cup

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.

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

We're so used to automation deskilling workers that we can't fit a form of automation that can *only* be used by very skilled workers into our mental models And so bosses try to run the deskilling playbook anyway, over and over.

The election of a far right MAGA loyalist in Colombia shows the increasing power of Washington interference in the hemisphere. Canada is on their list and they will stop at nothing. Please check out my latest on the lessons for Canada from Colombia. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-maga-t...

Philippines: Quezon City has logged a 265% increase in COVID-19 cases in 3 weeks. 🔹23 confirmed cases from May 21 to June 10, rising to 84 cases from June 11 to July 1 🔹District 4 had the highest rate at 32.71% of cases 🔹30% of all cases occurred in children aged 14 and under

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...

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’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.

This #Montreal initiative is using ‘Bee Bricks’ to give local pollinators a home The bricks are being tested as an alternative nesting place for local bees that, they say, could help support an entire ecosystem. www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

This just proves one thing, the US continues to want full control of everything and everyone, Canada built this bridge with workers from both countries, but Canada 100% paid for this bridge, piss off Hoekstra. Toll money collected after the bridge is paid will be split 50/50 with Michigan. #Facts

Library patron: Why are you wearing a mask? Me: Just for vibes, I guess. Why are you hacking up a lung at the library while I help you print off forms?

Much of AI "productivity gains" come from managers implicitly trusting an LLM to do a good job, and suspending the onerous micromanagement that humans employees get subjected to. You can do that without paying Anthropic a single penny. It just requires letting the experts you hired do their jobs.

Danielle And Doug Ford Are Making A Beautiful Pipeline Together youtu.be/BbOvIjvbMMw

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.

The law of the road dictates that if you get A&W, you have to get a burger patty for your co-driver. I don’t make the rules.

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

From Ontario to the Okanagan, Black and racialized workers power agriculture, but barriers to land ownership mean they rarely own farms. That gap is shaping Canada’s food future, and needs to be resolved if we’re all to eat. thenarwhal.ca/canada-black...

He doesn’t do this to white children. The President is deeply - fundamentally - racist, and the people who voted for him knew he was a racist before they voted for him and still chose to support that.

Home For A Rest is the Canadian singalong song for me but I don’t know how widespread that is

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...

There's a non-zero chance Smith got Ford to agree to this by promising him that the pipeline would be used to transport cheap beer across Ontario. www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

Again, AI is a mediocre white man talent simulator and laziness enabler.

I'm seeing more & more posts from people with Long COVID & other disabilities describing profound loneliness 6+ years into this pandemic. Loneliness & social isolation are major public health concerns associated with ~900K deaths annually globally (pre COVID estimate)

All weekends should be four days

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.

AOC is really smart and also… I don’t think you need to be as savvy as she is to have made this call, even before the latest allegations. It’s really sad that valuing the basic safety of women in the face of everything we already knew about Platner can look like a chess move in our society.

The Incels are rising again in the States. Be on the watch Canada, they're here too, after getting the nod from the leader of the Official Opposition. #cdnpoli www.youtube.com/shorts/wWklL...

Over the last decade, the number of rusting or yellowing rivers has been increasing, with researchers scrambling to determine where, when and how the phenomenon is affecting fish, drinking water Indigenous people depend on and whether there will be an end to its expansion.

It’s good for her that she loves prison

I rarely buy alcohol, the few products I buy for special occasions twice a year are either from Canada, Italy or Germany, I’ve done comparisons years ago with US products and Canadian/ European products are far superior

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

One of my regrets about the state of much of the world now is that it is too stressful to fully appreciate how funny it is, and also much of it is really quite funny.

Is there an animal that’s more Canadian than the beaver, moose or Canada goose? It could be a toad that has so far only been found in the Canadian Rockies. www.ctvnews.ca/sci-tech/art...

BREAKING: US to withdraw from the International Court of Poetic Justice.

Today marks an important moment in my social media life. The number of followers of my BlueSky account now equals that of my Xitter account (which I abandoned months ago). When you consider that the latter probably includes a few hundred bots, BlueSky is likely in the lead. I made a good choice.

Gutted for Mexico, but this was an absolute all-timer.

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

quite literally begging the blue jays to remember how to score runs before gausman has a completely understandable rage stroke

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.

A lot of “well, well…NOW I disavow him!” going on right now, and dudes, we already saw you and know where you stand. If you’re not willing to reflect on that, we’re not going to expect any better of you next time.

Democratic Belgium defeats authoritarian United States.

Good on Belgium, they are right in challenging this, RED CARDS are never overturned by FIFA, but of course the felon had to weasel into FIFA again, POS 🤬 Sorry, I am cheering on Belgium, I hope they whoop ass in this game.

A massive geopolitical shift! Prominent host Ben Meiselas confirms Türkiye, Pakistan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia are forming a powerful new alliance with Iran. He reveals they are completely abandoning the US security umbrella for a Chinese one! Total defeat. #cdnpoli

Local woman wakes up, makes a few last minute changes to Calgary Stampede (raw milk and ivermectin pancake breakfast, replaces the horses with separatists in the chuckwagon races and nightly polka concerts), makes oatmeal.

It was always an uphill battle for South Korea, but I believed they were the better choice (politically). Carney and DND's trans-Atlantic bias here on display. Alas. At least a choice has been made. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

The cost of the 2021 western North America heat wave and the fires it kindled was measured in records broken, lives lost and homes destroyed. Five years later, we present stories of five of those B.C. survivors as told in their own words.
