When I was a kid, my dad always referred to Cross-Country Checkup as "Cross-Country Fascism," thinking about that this morning for some reason 🤔

“There comes a time when you have to fight. We should fight for peace for sure, struggle for peace, all of us, everywhere, all the time. But the time may come when you have to fight, and when you do, you should do it with resolve”. ~ Major Robert Firlotte, 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion, 1942-45.

NEW from Gen. Mark Hertling: "When driven by political loyalty, ideological purity, or paranoia, replacing generals can weaken command structures, reduce battlefield effectiveness, and even lead to national security disasters." @markhertling.bsky.social www.thebulwark.com/p/dont-purge...

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

If Poilievre does not get his security clearance BEFORE the next election, even the most devout Conservatives should give him a pass. He's hiding something.

Years ago, after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, I interviewed a former fb employee, and I remember her continually emphasizing that these tech bros weren't evil geniuses, but were, in fact, dangerous because they were utterly clueless, totally reckless, and had too much power.

That was when they suspended the Constitution. They said it would be temporary. There wasn't even any rioting in the streets. People stayed home at night, watching television, looking for some direction. There wasn't even an enemy you could put your finger on. Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale

Just wanted to share this insane real-time video of the aurora Maia sent me last night during her tour. She drove guests to around Salcha, Alaska to escape a cloudy Fairbanks. Check out the real-time motion here, just crazy! High speed streams do wonders for high-latitudes. :)

Just in case you need to know… Canadian brands of orange juice include Oasis, Simply Orange, Compliments, and President's Choice. Some of these brands use oranges from Brazil. #BuyCanadian🇨🇦

May I suggest, if you’re planning a vacation to Canada from the States this year: Don’t bring your flag. If it’s on a shirt, on a hat — don’t. Most Canadians might ignore it,but I think you don’t want to find that out which ones won’t. And our hospitals are only free for Canadians.

ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan has filed for arrest warrants against two senior Taliban leaders, Haibatullah Akhundzada and Abdul Hakim Haqqani, for crimes against humanity specifically related to gender persecution in Afghanistan. This is welcome news & a critical first step towards justice.

The day after the election, so many of us told everyone to go renew your passports, particularly if you were changing gender markers. Friends were shocked when I wrote to them and said please get on this. Don't delay. Now there is this. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I think I may have just signed my first ever fiction contract (for an anthology) which contained a long anti-A.I. clause. (Meaning: I promised I didn't use A.I. to write my story, they promised not to use my story to train A.I., etc.)

800 million people live in the southern hemisphere. Summer in the south is winter in the north. Plea to academics to stop using ‘spring’ etc as a universal timekeeper. Just say the actual month/date of the deadline. 🙏
