Trying to stay active physically and mentally, as I head into my eighties in Nova Scotia. Still read the news (can't bear to watch it) and listen to Q104. Got off Twitter and still on FB. Love beaches and hotel stays where someone else does all the work.

South Florida meteorologist @johnmoralestv.bsky.social told his viewers live on air that he can no longer accurately predict hurricane season, due to federal government cuts.

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

@nickofferman.bsky.social is the absolute best 💜 Be more like him, and less like that weirdo he quoted

Proud of you Canada.

Current and former Meta employees fear the new automation push comes at the cost of allowing AI to make tricky determinations about how Meta's apps could lead to real world harm. Read the story by @bobbyallyn.bsky.social l and @shannonbond.bsky.social

I’m starting my annual walk across Connecticut today! Beginning in the very northwest corner of the state - Salisbury. I will talk to hundreds of people over the next few days about what they want (and don’t want!) from their elected leaders. My favorite week of the year!

He’s going to need a bigger boat 🚤

Scott Pelley—American author and reporter for CBS News for more than 31 years, did not hold back

Thank you to CBC for explaining to viewers that the King doesn't write this speech, it's a government document. In case this sounds like sarcasm, I'm being genuine. People need to know this, and far too many don't.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

Classy as expected. You know what? He can wallow in his victimhood and misery. How about the rest of us go just enjoy the day and honor our fallen.

A nation so sexist we chose the worst man over the best woman. Twice. And we will spend generations paying for it with our economy, our national security, people's lives, and the planet. #RemoveTrump #GOPBetrayedAmerica Call your reps 202-224-3121
