People abusing stimulants is so wild from the perspective of an ADHDer. "I used Adderall to work for three nights without sleeping, lol." Cool I take Adderall so I don't cry when I have to re-tie my shoes.

Apparently the “terrorist” who “posed immediate threat” is a 3 year old child named Ahed al-Bayok.

The reason you know as much as you do about the Palestinian genocide is because Palestinians themselves decided to flood the internet with its gore, intentionally.

This is outrageous! Winnipeg NEEDS an SFF bookshop. Good luck in your quest to create it.
It's my birthday, and the new year is close, so I want to tell you the plan.

Winnipeg doesn't have an sff bookshop.

I have been, and I still am, looking for a location for one.

This bookshop will also be queer as fuck.

I predict that men online will be assholes, as they usually are to women.
I’ll be testifying before parliament again in about 30 mins 👀

Gonna be chatting about anti-feminist ideology with the status of women committee!

Given how things went last time, I’m sure men online will be very normal about this 😌

Labour are attacking Greens. Fine. I have yet to see any party that has entirely affordable aspirations.

But at least the Greens HAVE aspirations.

Labour have seemingly decided the status quo cannot be touched, even when it doesn't work for 90% of people, or the viability of life on the planet.

Putin demands Ukraine withdraw or he'll "liberate" by force occupation framed as negotiation. This is the "peace" Trump Jr. sells: capitulate or Russia finishes the job. Offering victims surrender or annihilation isn't diplomacy; it's extortion with an American blessing.

There's a bunch of webcams on top of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano so you can watch it erupt. The latest eruption just straight up assassinated one of them. The lava fountain on the left is landing directly on top of one of the webcams.

we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

The Central Error of the Pandemic…

Is that of running pandemic management by laissez-faire socioeconomic principles.

If you grasp this, all the other errors fall into place as the inevitable consequence of following that line of thought. 🧵 1/x

Toss Keir Starmer.
I see the PM is being very rattled and very untruthful about the Greens again in the papers.

He couldn’t say this stuff in Parliament because he would be lying to the House - both about what our popular, evidence-based policies are, and about him believing this guff.

Along Israel’s expanding Yellow Line, the war in Gaza never ended

Oh look exactly in line with what Covid activists and scientists have been saying since the beginning and by the way, that number is “so far.”

Danielle Smith has been on the wrong side of every issue she's picked a side on for 30+ years. I can't even express my level of frustration at being ruled by this fascist fuckwit.
Of course the courts should be the ones to adjudicate constitutional issues. That’s the whole point of the rule of law, the cornerstone of government. You can’t trust government or popular opinion to determine or safeguard fundamental rights. #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

This has bugged me for years!
To me, nowadays at least, the presence of a dropdown list instead of freeform input is almost always a sure sign of programmer laziness or incompetence. The worst offender is a dropdown that lists all years between 1800 and 2025 as potential birthdays.

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.

A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

You are not alone.
I'm not a patriot, America happened to me, I'm subject to America, I'm descended from people who were dragged from Africa in fetid cramped ships & forced at the whip to labor for centuries then always kept down since. America is my condition. I don't support what it stands for.
