Canada is uniquely positioned to break the siege of Cuba—we should be leading a regional coalition to ship oil and aid to Cuba, and prevent the humanitarian crisis that U.S. regime is attempting to deliberately trigger.
I wrote about it, and the history of the blockade, for @policyalternatives.ca

Send Canadian oil to Cuba - CCPA
The United States is attempting to deliberately trigger a humanitarian crisis in Cuba. Canada must act in concert with regional allies to defy the blockade.

Amid the scapegoating of the trans community, it seems like no one is talking about how the Tumbler Ridge shooter was a neonazi, watched gore and murder videos constantly, and glorified mass atrocities and school shooters.
Online radicalization needs to be addressed. The young people are not okay.

I don't care if it's useful for bosses. I'm a union man.
The predominent anti-AI position on bsky is that AI is useless, fake, shit and basically the same as NFTs, destined to collapse in months once everyone sees how poor it is. So anyone who suggests that it could improve or be useful to any boss in any situation in the future must be evil.

Eliminate all border restrictions to the free movement of people.
Grant automatic citizenship upon request to all residents regardless of how they came to be in the country.
These are serious policy proposals; I am not being hyperbolic. We should do this in Canada.

The blessing of Nicholas Cage is that he will both take basically any job for money and will also deliver about the same amount of effort for any job and so you get wild swings whether it's an indy darling movie like Pig or an amazon/sony slop collab like Spider Noir.

Candace Owens is a remarkable case study in patterns of brain rot. Resentment and antisemitism pushed her to the far right only for her to discover they're a gang of disloyal vipers whose response to the death of her (only) friend was to extract all the money from his corpse and then forget him.

This is the first thing I learned about Highguard. Obviously I will not be buying it. I hope the Wildlight developers unionize.
Highguard developer Wildlight has reportedly laid off most of its team, says one a level designer sharing the news of layoffs.
The live service game launched just two weeks ago after being revealed at The Game Awards.
