Our SmartVoting.ca projections have updated, and we have seen a 10+ seat drop for Doug Ford. The The Liberals and NDP all gained in this update. There is a trend emerging. The drops for Ford were gained by the strategic vote in all ridings. 9 days left. Let's keep this going.

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990. One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS. #LGBTplusHistoryMonth

"The implications for the public are that they will have a harder time than they already do getting any objective sense of what is going on in their government," said NDP’s Claudia Chender. "It appears that Tim Houston wants to have less scrutiny than he already has." #Halifax #HaliSky #nspoli

A swastika t-shirt is the only item on the Yeezy website. Powered by Shopify. It's not the first time Shopify has powered stores selling items with Swastikas. I've reached out to them about this before, and they kept powering the stores. The only thing they changed, eventually, was their rules.

Strategic Vote Update Announcement at the end! Overnight we got a massive dump of polling data entered the system. Our model adjusted all ridings and shows that Ford and the PC have dropped up to 5 points in all ridings. Those voters seeming to have supported the strategic vote in that riding🧵

If you like puzzle games and languages I highly recommend Chants of Sennar on Switch. It’s a beautiful game where you have to decipher different (fictional) languages in order to solve puzzles. It’s challenging and works your brain! #nintendoswitch

I’ve noticed my posts on Bluesky getting way more traction than on any Meta platform. Not that I’m going viral, or even trying to, but it’s nice to actually have conversations rather than putting something out there and getting nothing back. #blueksy #socialmedia

Hey #photographersofbluesky here’s a dilemma I’ve run into recently, tell me your thoughts! 🧵 1/5 I haven’t made the switch to mirrorless yet. I shoot with a DSLR but it has a live view option where you can shoot looking at the screen rather than through the viewfinder. #photographer #photography

Someone graffitied anti trans hate on Venus Envy's storefront on Barrington St #Halifax. VE has been that guiding light of 2SLGBTQIA+ education for many many years in Nova Scotia. It's sad to see such anti trans hate on the rise here in NS. #HaliSky

An independent civilian review from a team of Toronto lawyers into the Aug.18, 2021 event at the #Halifax old Memorial Library found that decisions by the Halifax Police and the city led to a "day of chaos" for everyone involved. I was there that day, still have all my footage locked up. #HaliSky

If this trade war scares you. Remember that feeling when it’s time to vote. Cause ole #Nazi endorsed #PierrePoilievre will be bringing much more of it. He hangs out with rich oligarchs, takes selfies with right wing extremist groups and does not care about you. #cdnpoli

So the man that recklessly took that young woman’s life last night was caught and fined for stunting or dangerous driving twice in the past 2.5 years. Both times they suspended his license for just a week and then let him back onto the road. www.saltwire.com/nova-scotia/...

A bunch of losers went out and threw Nazi salutes in Alberta, Canada yesterday while holding racist signs. Might be time for the media to stop calling them “hand gestures” and start reporting on this big fucking problem for what it is!

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre doesn't seem to think nonbinary people exist. Um, they do. Poilievre saying this won't change that. But it will make life harder for them, all while disinforming a public that might have otherwise been accepting and open-minded. Let's talk about it:

The updated #HaliSky boil water advisory has an attached doc indicating we should be using hand sanitizer after washing hands with soap & water. But the notice from HRCE says “Halifax Water says it is safe to use school water for handwashing”. The communications on this issue are terrible.
