This is the biggest Canada/Russia game since the 72 Challenge Series. 🇨🇦 🇷🇺 🇺🇸

good news: you won the 4 Nations cup awful news: you cannot escape Gary Bettman

Minnesota is now South Manitoba. I don't make the rules.

Donald Trump made us all cheer for Marchand.

Brady Tkachuk is the quintessential American hockey player, in that he’s incredible talented, seems like a nice guy, but ultimately I hate everything about him, most importantly his hubris and general existence 😅

A black seadevil anglerfish has recently become a folk hero after swimming to the surface, only to die. Its journey, though tragic, has inspired intense emotions on social media. "This poor fish is just spending her literal last seconds trying to do something beautiful," one TikToker wrote.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

Not true. I'll give you some examples of when styles crossed over from womenswear to menswear, and how men have worn straight-up womenswear or just feminine styles in cool ways. 🧵

Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim's party has expelled one of its city councillors from caucus, saying Rebecca Bligh was "not aligned" with its "shared priorities and team-oriented approach." globalnews.ca/news/1102015...

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

NEW - The BC government has "effective immediately" paused "all hiring in the BC Public Service" due to deteriorating economic situation + US tariffs. New move stronger than previous "temporary pause" on some hiring in December. Only exception - jobs essential to core services.

US craft beers — brewed in steel, canned in aluminum — could get crushed by tariffs www.cnn.com/2025/02/12/e...

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

Tesla, whose chief executive, Elon Musk, has been advising President Trump on how to cut government spending, is likely to receive a lucrative contract to supply armored versions of its Cybertruck pickup to the State Department, according to public documents.

A conservative group backed by a grant from the Heritage Foundation has set up a "DEI Watchlist" with dossiers on civil servants it claims pushed DEI policies at US agencies. The site shows information and photos of the workers it labels as "targets." Most of those named are minorities or women.

Any news outlet reporting Mexico conceded anything to Trump to get him to delay tariffs has not done its homework. Trump boasts he got Mexico to commit to stationing 10K troops at our border. Apparently he didn't realize Mexico already has 15K troops deployed there prami.ibero.mx/informes-y-i...

NEW - Nashville Predators fans booed the Canadian national anthem tonight. And then got crushed by the Ottawa Senators on the ice. Go Sens Go.

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction.

The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Honestly fuck America for making me engage in any hint of nationalism because ew

If I was Quinn Hughes, I’d probably need to excuse myself to have a brief panic attack, too.

I just wanna say that this whole JT Miller thing could've been avoided if big baby millionaires realized that you don't always get along with your coworkers, and you fucking suck it up like the rest of us. The complete disrespect for the rest of the team, *especially* Quinn Hughes is mind-blowing.

i'm tired of being told to stop doomscrolling. i'm just scrolling, it's not my fault there's doom on there

love to see the president log on and post like “yo that’s crazy” about a plane crash

Those doomsday clock guys need to either do it or pipe down
