So yesterday the powers that be at the US military tried to erase Jackie Robinson… has there even been a statement from #MLB?Because I haven’t seen one!

Just saw a TikTok comment that said “America has ‘I peaked in high school’ energy” and holy shit

I’m currently working with #Rstats on a dataset that contains 2.7 millions rows and my entry-level MacBook Air M3 with 16 Gb of RAM doesn’t even blink Elon Musk is an incompetent idiot surrounded by an army of equally incompetent idiots

We're officially between prime ministers. By rule, Hal and Joanne from the BodyBreak commercials are now in charge.

It’s hard to tell whether Schumer is more like a young child reading a book report or Grandpa Simpson talking incoherently. Either way, look at my party dog, we’re all going to the camps.

Dear Canada, I felt compelled to make something. To stick up for, and to honour. To show our strength, beauty, genius, empathy, light & heart. It's made with deep gratitude for the people and places of this beautiful land. Vive le Canada 🇨🇦❤️✌️💪 vimeo.com/1056619122/f...

I’ll be honest, I’ve never wanted someone to choke on a Quarter Pounder more.

In high school, I had a history teacher who told us that the biggest threat to Canada is that we have a lot of water and resources and that one day someone would try to invade us to take them. I never thought that country would be the United States.

In spite of what the Russian Useful Idiot car salesman in the White House says, in his latest autocratic rants, we still have a First Amendment, and boycotting Tesla IS NOT ILLEGAL!!! In fact, I would call it PATRIOTIC!!!

Americans need to understand how serious Trump's 51st state stuff is. He's not kidding. He's talked about taking our water. He's said the border is "imaginary." He's created a narrative about our "drugs and cartels" as a reason to "liberate" us. I know you have a lot going on, but this is real.

In a few days, Mark Carney will be the next Prime Minister of Canada. Carney just gave up his entire portfolio to help grow Canada's economy. Pierre PoiLIEvre won't even get a security clearance. The choice in the next election is crystal clear #NeverPoilievre #noPoilierveforCanada #VOTELIBERAL

This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance. So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people. Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it. Postb it, blow it up and get it out there! #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

I'd love to be super excited about the trade deadline like I was 15 years ago. But I know right as some blockbuster deal comes in, Trump will announce that he's attacking Spain or making it illegal to own pink clothes or something. So it's hard, you know?

I see tomorrow is Friday. Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day? Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else? I just can’t keep track.

Vermont plate, Montreal road.

Donald Trump is an enemy to Canada. Any Canadian who supports him is a traitor.

With all the insulting anti-Canada shit that Donald Trump spews on a daily basis, it’s no wonder we Canadians are pissed off. FUCK TRUMP!

Dear Donald Trump: 1) "Asylum seekers" are NOT immigrants who escaped insane asylums. They are refugees escaping oppression 2) "Transgenic" does NOT mean "transgender." It means an organism or cell that has been genetically altered Maybe try googling next time k bye, America

This idea that Trudeau was SO HORRIBLY DISRESPECTFUL when he called him "Donald" and quoted someone else calling the tariffs "dumb" is pretty rich considering Trump makes rude nicknames for everyone and he's been calling Trudeau "Governor" for months

Let's just be clear about this--Reagan was not in any way a good president. And without him, we wouldn't be in this whole mess right now. 🧵1/

There's a small handful of Canadians who are telling us to roll over, accept whatever the Americans tell us to do You're pathetic and a disgrace to our nation

Great job, Justin Trudeau.

waiter: is pepsi ok pepsi: take a look around you, does any of this seem ok

*attenborough voice* sensing that its entire ecosystem has turned against it, the cybertruck resorts to extreme mutations in its desperate struggle to survive

We're all doing our best to attribute this mess to one out-of-control leader, but the thing that nags me for the longer term is that we basically can't trust the U.S. anymore. What good are trade deals, mutual defense deals, water treaties, etc. etc. with a country capable of lurching like this?

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary. It can't get a distributor in the US. Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.
