I’m building a starter pack of Liberal nominees in Alberta who have accounts on Bluesky. Only seven here so far, if you see one that I’ve missed please let me know. (ignore my name in here; as creator of the list I can’t delete it.) I’ll update as more candidates show up. go.bsky.app/FxCuZ12

The unicorn was born in our new song “Make Believe” (out now), & our very own Molly took that theme & created an incredible cover + vinyl design. You can pre-save & pre-order the translucent blue vinyl now. In the meantime, stream “Make Believe” and turn it up loud. 🦄💜 mothermother.lnk.to/presave

Bonjour Madison! Last night I heard for the first time on Alt-Nation the Canadian band Mother Mother. This is one of Canada's best west coast bands and after recommending them to SiriusXM a few months ago, I finally get to hear them. Play more! @altmadison.bsky.social @mothermothermusic.bsky.social

"passionately in love with language." Yeah. I'm no longer friends with someone who told me I was arrogant for "using such big words". No, that's not it. To me they are a Song, A way for my heart to express itself. I refuse to be shamed for the way I write. #BookSky #Poetry #Allegory

I will not be flying in American air space anytime in the next 4 years at least.
When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

This is public, out in full display, treason.
Two fucking bandits.
One of them has unleashed horrific violence against the people of Ukraine.
The other is our next door neighbour threatening our sovereignty.
But we know exactly who this grifter is.

Beware, Canada. Trump will not annex Canada. He will "take it on United States Authority". #ElbowsUp
He made it clear he doesn’t care about US laws or the Constitution. He’s also making it clear he doesn’t care about international law either.
Pay attention.
Pay attention.
Reporter: Mr. President, take it under what authority? It is sovereign territory.
Trump: Under the US authority.

Omg love this!
@altmadison.bsky.social If I didn't know who sang ROCKMAN, and you introduced the song as Gotye featuring The Police, I would not even bat an eyelash. Every time I listen to that song, I hear Sting on backing vocals, Gotye on lead vocals and Andy Summers on guitar.
