i love seeing a million posts like "it's funny that he is suffering" and not only do we all know who he is but we all want the same thing. like who's the pronoun now dipshit

I am an expert in the thing I am about to say: The Trump Regime dismantling CDC will kill countless disabled, chronically ill, and immunocompromised Americans. This is not policy, this is not governance — this is eugenics, this murder. www.wired.com/story/cdc-gu...

This is the kind of campaign that’s going to catch a LOT of Dems sleeping in 2026.

The quotes and replies on this from people in the US are all like "Stay TF away it's not safe!" and like yeah that's the feeling I get too. I mean my poster is sick but not sure it's worth the risk being of being disappeared, trafficked and enslaved in a prison work camp in El Salvador.

Canadians really don't want their own Trump

MPD *helped* Musk’s people seize the building.

It's wild to me that people who bought Teslas like yesterday are all 'oh but no one knew Elon was evil then' when in fact that was VERY well-documented. The labor abuses at the Fremont factory alone have been the subject of MULTIPLE investigative pieces for YEARS now. You knew you just didn't care.

On 16th March, 1968 Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson Jnr was flying helicopter recon for a US attack on My Lai, an alleged Viet Cong-controlled village in Vietnam. But as the attack developed below, Thompson realised he was witnessing something something else: A massacre. He decided to act. 1/28

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law: “It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

I received one of the 232 NIH grant "terminations" sent to scientists at Columbia last night. My research focuses on improving maternal and child health in the US. Also affected: ongoing clinical trials, research training programs, and research centers that aim to improve the health of Americans.

Looks like someone took it upon themselves to update the product descriptions in at least one Toronto location. (Via Reddit: www.reddit.com/r/ontario/co... )

Today would be yet another good day for university presidents to loudly, collectively, & publicly start defending our institutions & industry. The silence is deafening & frankly, incomprehensible. What exactly are you waiting for? How many Columbias, Maines, & Johns Hopkins will it take?
