I don’t wanna be mean to other dogs but I still think this is one of the greatest photo shoots of all time. Every time I look at these photos I wanna punch myself in the face. I want to rip my heart out take a bite & scream at the sky cause it’s just so fuckin cute that I can’t take it:

I was interviewed by my hometown's newspaper about writing for @thebeaverton.com! The lovely piece just came out, so today's the day I can officially cross "Telling Pierre Poilievre to go to hell in print form" off my bucket list www.simcoereformer.ca/news/local-n...

Days after a Louisiana judge ruled to allow the deportation of Mahmoud Khalil to proceed, and just hours after ICE abducted Columbia student and green card holder Mohsen Mahdawi, thousands held an emergency Passover Seder outside the ICE headquarters in New York City last night.

Actual spring today. Outdoor run on actually dry trails! Means that I waited too long to get out there, but it did snow last week. Started too fast but still averaged better than my minimum acceptable split.

We got our Canadian election voter card in the mail this week, and will be taking advantage of the 4 days of advance voting that will make it easy. Remember, the polls look good for Carney, but DON’T be overconfident. Polls don’t win elections. Neither do pundits. TURNOUT wins elections. #VOTE

“Niceness” can be a trap. It keeps us silent when we should speak, compliant when we should resist. History isn’t changed by the comfortable. Prepare now to step in, speak up, object, protect, cause a scene. Don’t assume you’ll know what to do. You’ll freeze when it matters and it will haunt you.

It’s critical yall understand why MAGAs are so hell bent on passing the SAVE Act. They’re suppressing women’s votes for a very particular reason. We cannot let them win. Support my advocacy here: www.qasimrashid.com/subscribe #justice #stopsaveact

I just attended a conference in the US. We had one speaker detained and two others turned away at the border.

1/ I never took DHS's scary-sounding notice that I had 7 days to leave the country too seriously, because it was obviously some kind of mistake. But what about the people the emails were actually aimed at? Let's talk a bit about immigration "parole" and what Trump is doing here

Never forget that CSIS has reported twice this month that there are disinformation attacks by both China and India targeting Mark Carney. Ignore the stories that are not fact-checked and create an emotional reaction regardless of who is spreading them.

AOC: We must acknowledge the terrifying moment we are in right now. What we are hearing and seeing with our own eyes is, in fact, happening. We are watching our neighbors, students, and friends being fired, targeted, and disappeared. It is real.

Measles, Vitamin A & RFK Jr.’s About-Face www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/... by @drlabos.bsky.social "The dangers of misrepresenting the science are not abstract. Real children are getting sick & dying." Vitamin A "doesn’t prevent or limit the spread of measles, and in very high doses it can be toxic."

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

I spoke to another person this week—also a US-born citizen—who showed me the DHS email she received informing her that she had to leave the country. Incompetent, evil or both?

Reminder as we watch measles rates climb in Canada that *this* is Poilievre's attitude towards vaccination during a public health emergency. MMR vaccination has long been mandated for health care workers. Would a Poilievre govt ban the MMR mandate in health care during a huge measles outbreak?

“Paige and I developed an instant connection the first time I replied to her to let her know her post about disability benefits was ‘well said’,” Noot continued. “She liked that post, which, if I understand correctly, is a lifelong commitment to me.”
