Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.

New column from me at @xtramagazine.com: Alberta's attack on books is another page out of the authoritarian playbook #canqueer #cdnpoli The column also delves into how age verification legislation in the Senate plays into this issue, handing a weapon to the far-right.

'PP is flailing' 'It looks like PP as usual is going toxic' vm.tiktok.com/ZMSy1KtRQ/

there’s a reason bluesky is a retirement home for millennial posters - we grew up before algorithms and were not used to having content shoved in our faces unasked for we chose to click on those terrible threads ourselves

I think people (well, me) stole "no worries" as a standard response from the Australians? If so, thanks denizens of Oz. It just seems to work and has a friendlier feel to me than "no problem." And for some reason "it's all good" gives me the creeps. Semantic and emotional mysteries abound!

Enjoy your imported vegetables Americans. #cdnpoli

Everyone I knew who covered disinformation got laid off, their bosses got bullied into firing them, or they changed their beats from actual Nazi harassment campaigns. It cannot be stressed the damage the paid-for Substack ā€œfree speechā€ guys did in the service of fascism and against real free speech.

Shame on PP for not attending the Pride flag raising ceremonyĀ  vm.tiktok.com/ZMSyJcbnu/

I hope you don’t mind me sharing some good news šŸ˜‰ On the night of June 11–12, Ukrainian drones struck the Rezonit technology park in moscow oblast. The facility plays a critical role in russia’s defence industry, producing electronic components for missiles, drones, and other advanced weapons.

"Not Evolutionary - Revolutionary!" LaserVision was an early/alt name for LaserDisc, with early players up against rival format Capacitive Electronic Discs (which used styluses). Pioneer's player here was released in 1987 and supported three disc formats. LaserDiscs are such cool things.

This guy said "no fatties" lmao

this is how anti-trans and TERFs act when you are a trans person simply exist. this is how the average conservative wants everyone to treat trans people

Donald Trump doesn't just have a chip on his shoulder...he's got the whole potato.

Daniel Clowes designed this yr's Telluride Film Festival poster.

Mahmoud Khalil will be free!

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now. When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was onšŸ”„ @kamlager-dove.house.gov

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

The cruelty in today's politics feels horribly corrosive. Bringing up that hard-working immigrant families — undocumented, yes, but not violent criminals — are being ripped apart based on immigration status doesn't bring compassion or even pause, but gleeful cheers.

Fucking unbelievable

This is a page directly out of the OrbƔn playbook.

nothing should be based on marco fuckin rubios determination

A friend just asked me what I do to stay hopeful and I told him one of my favorite strategies…I stay hopeful by remembering that no one has any idea what the fuck is going to happen, so as long as we don’t know, we gotta do what we can.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.
