EMPATHY is everything. Look at these nihilistic government cuts. It's all about demonstrating a total contempt for empathy. They're trying to eliminate any kind of care or virtue or selflessness.

Just thought I'd note that there are many Canadian political scientists based in Canada available to speak to the implications of Donald Trump's threats to Canada, and the implications of US foreign policy more broadly, and how Canada might respond on national media.

SHES AN ICON SHES A LEGEND AND SHE IS THE MOMENT

Okay, I've been wanting to say something about how I don't think art is for escapism (not in the way most people mean, i.e. "Art is for distracting me from the horrors for a while") but THIS? This I agree with. This feels like the antithesis to distraction.

Being clear-eyed and honest is really important especially now.

The LA Firefighters at the SAG Awards 😭♥️

"It’s a victory for every drag performer, every queer organizer, and every member of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community who has been slandered, harassed, or attacked for simply existing. The precedent has been set. If you spread lies and hate, you will be held accountable."

an homage to all the forgotten nintendogs (this is not really just about nintendogs) #art #promosky #nintendo

I can’t stress this enough #journalism #localnews #bcpoli

I once wrote an episode of Adam Ruins Everything where he said that IQ is a bad measure of actual mental ability. It got some of the most wild, furious responses online. There are people who base their entire world view on a relatively meaningless number

Happy Sunday to my Dutch relatives! 🇳🇱

surrounded by circle upon circle of consternations and affrights

My screentime is down 10% two weeks in a row! 🙂

Bong Joon Ho: ‘I wish I had Ken Loach’s energy, but I’m just thinking about nap time’

Passing on some ancient oral traditions (singing commercial jingles to my children that I heard 25 years ago on YTV)

discovered that Little Caesar’s has an Apple Watch app and it’s just this image that you can’t interact with in any way

Ontario - I voted today at my local library and it took under 5 minutes! Advance Polls run until tomorrow!

AP sues the Trump administration: "The White House has ordered The Associated Press to use certain words in its coverage or else face an indefinite denial of access. ...The Constitution does not allow the government to control speech." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

What in the absolute fuck is going on at the University of Cincinnati? For the record, trans men are just as biological as any other sort of man. They aren't made of metal or something.

It’s actually not common and if you can’t research and write your own copy without relying on generative software gtfo of the industry

“I just wanna say trans people are beautiful. We are never going to stop existing. I’m never gonna stop being trans, a letter on a passport can’t change that, and fuck this administration.”

Needless, stupid, and cruel

lmao, jesus

Costco and Trader Joes are yin and yang. Together they form a harmonious balance. One sells big piles of normal food, the other sells small piles of weird food. These are the two food piles people need

Nice 🇨🇦

My college lifted its ban on skateboarding so that students won't have to drive to school, and now every day the back of my class lecture hall has a neatly parked row of skateboards.

Good morning to my fellow Canadians! 😄🇨🇦 How it Started / How it is Going

DESERVED ✅

NEW: Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared. ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

I rode the back of the bus. I buried Dr. King. You want me to participate in your little hate-a-thon against some other group? Kindly kiss my black ass.

I'm sorry - look at this Instagram ad! Holiday Inn wants me to picture myself reading on the FLOOR of one of their hotel rooms???? 😂🙈

Canadian tech bros just begging to join their American counterparts.

COWABUNGA!

we got a box of heart-shaped fruit snacks (to include with valentines) and the goose has been diligently working through the leftovers. Every time before she eats a heart she holds it out to us and says “I love youu~uuuu” and she’s done it a hundred times and every time it hits me like this

we may not agree on much, but I agree with Trump here. make those planes with haste, boys. cut any corner necessary!

This just in: Funko Pop Distribution is Woke and DEI now, rather than, you know, a failing business plan because no one needs ugly vinyl figures en masse.

Pleased that Port Perry's gun shop has gone out of business and is becoming something useful for the town (Thai restaurant)

Oh damn Prime actually published their failed chatgpt prompt in the description

Beautiful cover for a lovely series! 🐲

If your country crushes my economy, dismantles my government, and occupies my city, I will not be playing two party electoral politics — especially in favour of cowards who stood by and let it happen because they liked their midterm odds!

Omg love this 🐥

Today we recognize Nora Bernard, a Mi’kmaq activist and residential school survivor. A member of Millbrook 1st Nation, Nora led a 15-yr legal battle that helped secure compensation for 1000s of Indigenous children forced to attend residential schools. Nora Bernard St replaced Cornwallis is 2022.

Computer: uhhh ok 👍

“Because the career incentives of elite opinion journalism are such that there will always be upwards mobility for someone like me who criticizes Democrats more than Trump”

Welp I guess it’s time to shovel the *checks notes* bird feeders.
