What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible.

Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

🇨🇦 Canadian Shoppers:

Campbell Soup closed its Canadian plants a few years ago but they are putting a Canadian flag on soups sold in Canada. They justify it by stating that the soup recipes were created in Canada. This is deceptive advertising.

The Krasheninnikov volcano in Kamchatka, Russia, has erupted for the first time in 600 years.

It’s linked to the 8.8 magnitude earthquake that struck the area a few days ago.

He lost an election and refused to accept the results.

He forced the Smithsonian to lie about American history.

He fired the head statistician bcuz he didn’t like the jobs numbers.

He can’t handle the truth. We elected the biggest pussy/coward/sore loser in all of human history.

My Canadian Travels: The 737 in a farmer's field.
Located near the Villeneuve Airport in Alberta, this 737 is now used for training and as a film set.

I'm making videos of my travels, so if you enjoy these videos, please give them a share to help spread the word!

You cannot convince me anymore that Trump is not among the stupidest people alive.
He vaguely heard that people in Wales the country objected to a proposed wind turbine project. I’m being completely serious.

To him, it became whales, the aquatic mammals, were harmed by wind turbines (which to him are all windmills).

He also conflates political asylum with mental asylums.

There is no basis for Trump’s claim that Beyoncé received an $11 million payment related to the Harris campaign, let alone for the endorsement in particular.

PRESENTER: "Isn’t it a bit unfair to say this is the Israelis as a whole?"

GELDOF: "Stop it Trevor. If Israelis want to protest, get in your cars. Stuff your cars full of food & drive through that border. Let your own army stop you. Shame on you.”

This explains a lot.
Only 79% of Americans are literate (tied with Congo), and 54% (astoundingly, the majority) have a literacy level below the 6th grade.

You can't address toxicity in hockey if you don't address the misogyny, homophobia and racism underpinning it.

You can't address the toxicity if you don't target parents who are screaming hysterically on the sidelines, enabling violence and outright teaching their sons to devalue "Puck Bunnies"

Perhaps @bonniecritchley.bsky.social will address some of these issues at the Camrose forum on July 29 in addition to pointing out that Poilievre refuses to get a Top Secret Clearance and chose to basically ignore his own riding in the Federal Election campaign & the years leading up to it.

All signs suggest that, through his fully complicit DOJ, Donald Trump is planning to team up with Ghislaine Maxwell.

Again.

And apparently, almost the entire GOP is on Team Epstein/Maxwell/Trump, pissing on victims so they can cling to power.

As for Hulk Hogan, he was always the villain. But he was a great example of how villains are sold as heroes, to us impressionable kids. He was a gutter racist, an enemy of journalism, a great talker and showman who couldnt wrestle, and an American hot dog-coloured fraud. He was a warning, in a way.
