The Ontario election today is an eye-wateringly calculated and self-serving move by Doug Ford. He is wasting our time and our money when he should be working for us. Vote him out, Ontario www.votewell.ca

Andrew Tate being allowed to come to the U.S. and avoid facing trial for sex trafficking in Romania is beyond stomach-churning. This man is a HUGE influencer and uses his platform/following to further abuse women who have accused him. Now he won’t face justice, reaffirming his lies to his followers

I'm old enough to remember when "nazism" wasn't something aspirational

I’m imagining what some future headlines coming out of the States will look like and my goodness I hope I’m wrong.. www.bbc.com/news/live/c7...

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

If you live in Ontario, a concrete thing you can do to protect Canadian interests from American encroachment or straight up invasion is to vote out Ford. He is on the record as happy that Trump was elected and has given $100 million contract to Elon Musk. Vote him out!

if you're reading this 50 years from now I need you to know that this series of world events isn't as dumb as it probably seems, it's actually much, much dumber than you can possibly imagine

PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

Mark Hamill posting rebellious content in a battle against a dictator and his robotic sidekick is the most Star Wars shit ever.

We have robust anti-spam legislation in Canada...unless you are a political party. Then we can just spam...everyone? Lose my number.

Old academic friend: hey, do you mind reviewing a couple of abstracts for the conference thus summer? Me: sure, I can do a couple in service of friendship OAF: great, thanks Me: receives 8 items to review Me: 😐

I know that it is winter and we are watching a real-time move to tech-bro led fascism or whatever, but come on people...pick up your dog`s shit. You signed up to do that when you got a dog.

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

Glad to see the Ethics of Researching the Far Right will be out in paperback soon Still too expensive for my taste but it's progress I guess manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526173881/

All these nightmares are backed up by references, so that makes them...just terrible things? ontariosnightmare.org?post=32462

The phenomenon of “leftist language policing” is 99% a product of centrists whining about it constantly. I almost never encounter it in real life and requests for vocabulary updates are typically non-binding guidelines for formal written documents.

We need to acknowledge what makes far-right groups appealing if we're going to effectively tackle them, argues Mario Peucker. A part of this is removing the dichotomy between "us and them", positioning the far-right as a fringe movement on the edges of society. Read more: tinyurl.com/mpb39ct6

Why in the sweet fuck is the mayor of Guelph governing by Facebook poll? ... I know the answer, I'm just mad about it.

This is probably the most accurate take.

JFC indeed.

“Be careful. When a democracy is sick, fascism comes to its bedside, but it is not to inquire about its health.” Albert Camus

Mark my words: The US fucking up all of their internal systems and failsafes is going to kill a lot of people...and I don't mean with bombs. Get ready for your bird flu and lack of cancer research everyone.

Doing work like this is killing me I think. I read this and all I thought was: "yeah, that makes swnse"

This is a 10/10 idea. Would do. www.reddit.com/r/lego/s/nYW...

"No white people during Kendrick's halftime show? So much for diversity" Oh you didn't hear? DEI got canceled. He clearly hired the best people for the job 😌

I can’t unsee Samuel L. Jackson as Uncle Sam, it’s forever cemented in my mind. He was brilliant.

Lets say Fascism instead because then nobody can say "the Nazis didn't really do that in that way" when Mussolini's fascist state did. All I'm saying is that we should be inclusive with our calling the fascists fascist. A bit of fascist EDI.

Which is the proper emoji for laugh/cry/clown/death?

Keeping in mind that my research is all about violent misogyny and creeping extreme far-right ideology, I just spent like half an hour blocking children-focused Christian indoctrination channels from youtube kids and I have not felt this disturbed in a long, long time.

If Poilievre has this much trouble pivoting in an election campaign for an election that hasn’t even been called yet how’s he going to deal with any real crises if he’s leading Canadian government?

The Papua New Guinea Courier is in rare form.

Great job by Ruben (@rubenbolling.bsky.social).

The planet is on fire. Trump and Pierre Poilievre will burn the planet so that corporations can make even more profits. We are witnessing a dismal example of bumper sticker slogans when young people are looking to their leaders to step up. Please watch this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=faZ_...

Hey, I'm in this. You should check it out.

Where the hell is Lin-Manuel Miranda? Why isn’t he, in full costume, outside the Treasury Department, right now, RAPPING?!

So...can I still get money to do critical work on white supremacy and new-age Nazi sympathizers? They are white dudes...

💓 @thebeaverton.com for making truth funny...I mean satire...making funny satire. www.thebeaverton.com/2025/02/furi...

I think it is a bit funny when institutions are like "we're not going to be on Twitter anymore because Elon is a Nazi" but also "follow us on Facebook and Insta instead" because Zuckerberg's abject masculinism and broligarch activity is ¿better?

Matt is spot on.

Please remember that in the coming Ontario election we aren't voting on Ford's reaction to Trump, but rather his entire mandate and history as premier. As much as I can agree with his current stance, giving him another mandate is the wrong move for Ontarians...well non-developers anyway...

Are they making games based on Jordan B Peterson's rules now? I'm for sure seeing a guy playing a computer game at the library that appears to be just cleaning your appartment?

Vibes.

Sweet fucking jesus. I just...I mean... This is very bad. insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n...

Here's a fact most Americans don't know: The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world. The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits. We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

Now is a time we need to support each other in academia across disciplines, across universities: Those in fields not under attack, need to help those who are under attack Senior faculty need to support junior faculty Privileged faculty need to support marginalized faculty #academicsky
