1 year ago, on Christmas, my precious little cousin took his last breath in the arms of a stranger after using drugs that contained fentanyl. He was so loved, but more than that he loved so hard. Addiction is a terrible thing. This yr remember, those who use are all someone's people. Love you Ryan ❤️

I really hate hearing ny neighbour have sex when I take the dogs out for their last bathroom break of the night. Like close your window. My god. I just want some peace in my own backyard.

Weird, right?
kind of funny that an olympian said they are here to represent "compassion, respect, and love for others" and some people automatically knew that was a statement against them

Not one single thing shocks me anymore.

That makes me very depressed.
NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:

Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.

Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

My next car will definitely be an EV for just bootin' around town. I simply don't drive long distances often enough but do spend a LOT of time idling at lights in Langley lol
We’re building a strong Canadian auto sector where our workers build the cars of the future — and we’re launching a new program to make EVs more affordable for Canadians.

Because in a strong economy, we can buy what we build.

Stephen Harper says the US is a "hostile" regime and Canada must urgently reduce its economic ties and hit back with counter tariffs.
He says business leaders are fooling themselves if they think things will go back to normal.
When I find myself in the same trench as Stephen Harper it's serious.

You cannot convince me that, except for far right Maple-MAGA, these guys are all besties behind closed doors. Everything is a show and huge divides are being created, why? Because of what the public is being fed. We are here because the right has sewn so much fake hate reteric into their base .

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

Pushing through and subsequnetly infecting people around you does not make you a hero!
It’s cold/flu season and I’m tired of the guys posting that “despite being sick” they still made themselves go to the gym.

You’re not “disciplined”.
You’re selfish.

I'm actually super embarrassed for the city and furious about this

It's gaslighting and basically implies reporters are liars at a time when press freedom is already under attack. #journalism
The City of Vancouver continues to deny there was a media exclusion zone during the April 2023 Hastings decampment.

I witnessed this, I made video showing how media were excluded (in this story: thetyee.ca/News/2023/11...) & now a BCHRC report has confirmed there was an exclusion zone.

And Prince Edward Island REJOICES!!! This is excellent news for farmers.
Before recent trade tensions, China represented a roughly $4 billion export market for Canadian canola seed. 
 
With our new trade arrangement, tariffs are expected to drop about 70% on canola seed by March 1 — unlocking billions in business for Canada’s canola farmers.

There needs to be more conversation around how vyvanse in women can be used as a mood enhancer as well as a tool for ADHD. I am on THE lowest dose and I cannot even begin to emphasize how life changing this has been over the last month.

One day I'm going to run for office on the platform of "I will make it illegal for telecom companies to increase your bill without prior warning". I'll win.

Please let this be real
White people are putting Mexican flag stickers on their cars to get pulled over and waste ICE's time.
They call it "ICE fishing."

Thinking about whoever said that by accepting a meal from people and then arresting them ICE agents broke a cultural taboo that was invented by, like, the first humans to set up a tent

Mark is, according to his bio, a professor who specializes in inequities in society and networks.

Yet here he is defending his pal who took meetings and fundings from Epstein.

But… you’ll be relieved to know… his friend who was chummy with Epstein? Always seemed nice to Mark.
I feel like someone’s gotta say something, so I guess it’s going to be me. I’m 100% certain that I either know, have met, or have sought meetings with people who have done horrible things in their lives, too. How about y’all? Association is not causation, and it's not guilt — of anything. (1/8)
