Let’s be clear: Israel, an occupier, has no authority under international law to board or divert the Madleen. This is a hijacking, plain and simple. A hijacking of a UK-registered ship, with multiple *European* citizens on board. Does the EU or UK government have anything to say? Anything??

The gaslighting continues, y'all. Go ahead and feel some type of way about rational Canadians taking steps to protect themselves against the real threat your administration poses, Pete. I'm not knowingly putting myself in danger for your profit, and you can keep your big feelings about that, champ.

I wasn't expecting to drop everything to write this update today. Mayor Fillmore is putting forward a motion that could kill or drastically reduce the Regional Centre Bike Network. It's problematic, reckless, and lacking in evidence. My take here samaustin.ca/the-bike-net...

monstrous, unconscionable, vile, indefensible, evil. first they state that they will deliberately stop just short of starving innocent civilians 'so the rest of the world can't accuse us of war crimes', a petulant and childish bit of rhetoric - and now they shoot the starving people.

Conservatives: is the problem that we stepped on our own dick with a thunderously unpopular leader and failed to convincingly stand up for Canadian values and sovereignty in the face of Trump’s threats, or is it CONSPIRACY TIME!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

Fucking hell, ChatGPT is an unaccountable, tokenized next-word generator based on patterns. It’s not human. It’s not a therapist. It is compelled to respond to a prompt and it has no ability to understand anything, let alone form a cogent judgement or opinion. This is incredibly dangerous.

What an absolute monster. I’m sure your boy Jesus is super proud of how flippant, dismissive, and insulting you choose to be about the devastating impacts of these policies you’re gleefully co-signing. Claiming righteousness to avoid having to give a shit about another human being. Cool.

actually dana, the millennials are hesitating to bring children into the world not because it’s on fucking fire, but because they've overplayed their hand, and the little shits don’t think they can do better than the worst of us did, after all. it’s (still) the *children* who are wrong.
