Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

I hope seeing Kilmar Abrego Garcia alive will convince some of you to stop preemptively declaring people dead. I know it comes from a place of fear, but cynicism and pessimism can demobilize people and lead folks to give up before a fight is lost. Let's not seed that attitude.

So how exactly is DOJ going to say they can’t persuade Bukele of anything when a mere minority Senator can get in to see Kilmer?

I literally did not know this Senator existed, and now I will never forget him and what he has done

Man I fucking needed this. Kilmar is the exact "perfect victim" and we shouldn't have needed to get this far, but him being alive means they still have an ounce of fear of us.

Good for Rosie Barton and David Cochrane for pointing out that The Rebel people confronted journalists, including them, and wilfully disrupted the debate coverage and ended the after-debate scrum with leaders. Cochrane called out the rage farming for profit. Massive failure by the debate commission

Rage farming, from the Right, and specifically Poillievre and his team, is fucking up our democratic processes.

B.C. STORY CALLOUT: Did you take all your vacation hours last year? If not, I want to hear from you! I'd love to hear why not, for an article I'm writing for The Tyee. Please send me an email at iphannay@thetyee.ca

Sometimes the indicators are pretty straightforward. You piss off Carville? Keep fucking going.

I’m sick and tired of the lack of intellectual diversity on Bluesky. We need to hear both sides of the Dying Of Food-Borne Illnesses debate

This band absolutely blows my mind

I’ve never cheered this much for China in my life and it’s a tad bewildering

Toxic drug deaths for First Nations peoples decreased by 6.8% in British Columbia between 2023 and 2024. “[This] shows us what we are doing, particularly in the area of harm reduction, is helping."

1st long weekend of the year approaching and I feel like Ricky from the Trailer Park Boys- “getting drunk and stoned af tonight”. I’m not, but I feel that vibe atm…

WSJ editorial writer and noted climate policy hater Holman W. Jenkins, Jr. is kind of cooking here www.wsj.com/opinion/trum...

WOW. One of the Venezuelans whom Kristi Noem tried to render to El Salvador's slave prison managed to avoid removal and was able to make it to immigration court, and you'll never guess what happened: THE GOVERNMENT GAVE NO EVIDENCE OF HIS GANG MEMBERSHIP. Due process ftw

Bluesky has topped 35,000,000 users. 🥳

I was on NPR with Senator Van Hollen right before the whole shutdown fiasco, and I was, to be honest, fairly annoyed with his answers and seeming aversion to a standoff. But this episode has really restored him in my eyes. Genuinely important, one of the best things a Dem has done all year.

First off, not only do Rebel News, True North, etc not belong in the same room with accredited news reporters, they asked their questions in ENGLISH at a debate geared for FRANCOPHONES. I’d argue the question rationing violated the official languages act. #cdnpoli #qcpoli #elxn45 #debatdeschefs

How the insanely courageous man holds it together on the daily is beyond me.

Carney definitely needs to do better on this.

He won’t enact tariffs He won’t start a trade war He won’t cause a sell off ***YOU ARE HERE TODAY*** He won’t ban shorting He won’t delist ADRs He won’t fire Powell He won’t spark a banking crisis He won’t do capital controls He won’t close markets He won’t default on Treasuries

New @treblezine.bsky.social writing from me, 2 of 3: somewhat poetic that Salif Keita’s beautiful new LP, his first in 8 years, lands in the shadow of the death of his old bandmate Amadou Bagayoko (of Amadou & Mariam).

Well done Jagmeet, and I don’t say that often. But kudos.

This is a ruse and no one should give it a pass. We’re going to be hearing this ass-covering from every one of them as the economy tanks and people are rounded up, all the way up the food chain until it’s those in the cabinet. The rise of fascism repeats itself and so does its inevitable fall.
