more like Pierre Poileavin' Parliament

on Jan 20, 2025 the Conservatives were *23 points* ahead in the polls

Trump becomes the first American president to lose a Canadian election

So you're a conservative huh? So do you hate paying taxes so much you're okay with the degredation of civil liberties? Or do you just hate the idea that people you consider your lessers might have something nice?

I don't understand writers and critics who think reviews are meant to be received by the author. I enjoy quality criticism, and of course it plays an invaluable role in arts and letters, but when it comes to my own art, the critic is merely a color commentator on my boxing match with God.

CANADA. VOTE.

The UK is a fascist state with the pretence of democracy. Autism is not a disease. Being trans is not a disease. Neither need cured. Leave us the fuck alone!!

i would even argue it's pretty common for Americans to see what's happening in Gaza as a genocide. NYT reporters and the visual investigations team have documented aspects of that genocide well. The owners and editors just don't want anyone to call it that.

Just going to leave this here for the people who still need a little convincing uscpr.org/activist-res...

The reason why older generations burnt the shit out of their meat and boiled the shit out of their vegetables, was your kid died if you didn't. Medium rare steaks and roasted Brussels sprouts are a side effect of an intact food safety infrastructure

everything's going great huh? i'm so glad biden spent all those years preaching about the sanctity of democracy just to do absolutely everything he possibly could to hand us all back to this fascist freak on a silver platter

When did we go from "I want my children to have a better life than I did." to "It was good enough for me, it's good enough for them."? Have we always said the former but believed the latter?

Bingo. ChatGPT doesn't give you knowledge, it gives you confident lies. If you accept confident lies, you are a fool.

If you use GenAI, you’re not welcome here #NoAI

Who could have possibly predicted that TERFS would immediately pivot from transmisogyny to overt racism? Oh, wait. It was trans women. Trans women said this is exactly what would happen.

i think this undersells George a bit because his actual thought process was more, "Obviously the Vietcong are the good guys how do i depict in space the discrepancy of force available to heroic insurgents versus an industrialized power?" the death star is the U.S. Air Force

"Israel would never"- no, it will. It has. It will continue to. Imagine any evil. Apartheid? Yes. Torture of children? Also yes. Starving and suffocating babies? Common. Massacring medics? Yes. Concentration camps? The largest in history. Genocide? Yes. Gang rapes? Yes. Sniping kids for sport? Yup.

Can someone explain to me why we're not more worried about Teslas being weaponized via firmware patch? As person who lives in a country the US is loudly considering invading, I want to know how concerned I should be about this.

if you're planning to watch this season of #Andor, important reminder that Disney+ is on the BDS priority target list and you SHOULD NOT purchase a Disney+ subscription in order to watch! BDS is a Palestinian-led movement and TARGETED boycott—the meaningfully effective kind. don't buy Disney+!

History always has a lesson.

The Big “We”

When I was a kid you could get Earth Day Happy Meal toys so

We really should have collectively noticed the signs and intervened sooner: youtu.be/9CIcNGZehkw?...

The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law

At this point I'm not as woried about American troops crossing the border as I am of a mandatory firmware update turning every Tesla into an autonomous murder drone. At this point it's not "Sell your Tesla" it's "Get the Nazi-controlled exploding robot off the streets where it can't hurt anyone!"

Can someone explain to me why there are so many Hard Rock Cafés? Also why I would go there? It looks mid and expensive?

In America the supreme leader increases the price of food and then buys that food to scatter on the ground to taunt the peasantry
