Here's an infrared Sombrero from J-Dub. Not new, just my own view on it. Part of a project to eventually combine imagery from various sources. flic.kr/p/2qNgBrh

Both Bonnie Henry and the BC NDP pick and choose when it suits them to follow science. For once, Henry was following science; BCNDP did for a little while, until it threatened their standing (just like w SARS2, when actually following the science to mitigate spread was unpopular w donors/business).

Can’t even tell if this is real or parody. I hope it’s real because this is hilarious.

We kicked holocaust denier Ernst Zündel out of Canada. Why the hell would we let Elon Musk have any claim on Canada? He is a fascist threatening the people of Ukraine. I am proud to be helping drive this asshole from our shores. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

Out of touch Hanomansing on another Canadian issue. Take a few patriotic lessons on Canada 🇨🇦 from Charlie Angus. Remember how Ian treated Canadians that disagreed with Bonnie Henry? The disdain from him towards us was disgustingly palpable. Maybe time for CBC to relieve this quisling.

Oh my god, how are y'all still not getting this? The title of the program is using and normalizing Trump's phrasing. Before the program has even aired, it's already functioning pro-annexation propaganda. You have already demonstrated a lack of care.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

Why is CBC selling us all out? ‪Ian Hanomansing‬ has already been grossly irresponsible by trivializing other subjects (like the covid pandemic) on his Sunday show, but even including his misogynistic behaviour on X, turns out I could still have an even lower opinion of him. THIS is so messed up:

It’s odd how COVID-safe people tend to frighten or alarm people more than COVID itself does.

This is Horatio, he lived at The Hawk Conservancy in Hampshire. He is part of a European project to breed and release birds into the wild. The last time I was at the conservancy Horatio had gone elsewhere to find a mate. I thought him stunning #vulture #bird #birds #birdsofbluesky #sony

Anticipation is building at Willow Tree Fen. This crane family is still together but we're expecting the juvenile to be chased off any day now as the parent birds lay claim to their territory ahead of the breeding season. Other pairs are also showing positive signs of nesting again. 📷 David Roberts

Can’t wait for Ian Hanomansing to play the victim and say that he’s being attacked by the conservative haters on…checks notes… Bluesky for Canadians being angry that he provided validity to the idea of Canada’s annexation.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Note: Today’s earthquake was not within the Cascadia subduction zone… This was a shallow crustal quake that will have no effect on “the big one!” That said, another important reminder that we live in earthquake country! #Earthquake #BCQuake #BePrepared
