With regard to toxic drug poisoning deaths, First Nations women died at 8.5 times the rate of other BC women in Jan-June 2025 and First Nations men died at 4.6 times the rate of other BC men in the same period. The toxic drug crisis is also colonial and solutions are being suppressed by government.

positive news. imo ATB's hauling oil should also be banned, I think they're sketchy and a workaround for this ban and they will cause a spill.

On this day in 1791, "the most decisive defeat in the history of the American military," in this case to the Indigenous Northwestern Confederacy.

On this day in 1952 in the Marshall Islands, the US engages in the first test of a thermonuclear device (10.4 megatons, almost 500 times the explosive yield of the 21 kilotons bomb dropped on Nagasaki), resulting in radioactive fall-out in the region. Only one of several nuclear tests on the islands

“There is only one duty for the moment: every other task is a dream and a mockery. Stop the atomic bomb. Stop making the bomb. Abandon the bomb completely. Dismantle every existing bomb. Cancel every plan for the bomb’s use”
“While the whole world writhes in a spasm of madness, let us in America be mad with a method, mad with a purpose. Let us say No to the atomic bomb rather than say No to life itself.”

Immortality is a child's answer to death anxiety, not a real thing with which humanity will ever have to contend. No king's alchemist ever granted him eternal life, and it isn't going to start happening now just because of Computer.

I'm uniquely qualified to endorse this statement because I work for public transit (ferry) and as part of that, direct car traffic. the wild and bizarre stuff i see from the walk on passengers is always fine compared to how the cars are trying to smoosh me to death every day
i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

sure the same old pro-NATO people are criticizing Mike's dedication to tâpwêwin and how he points out fascism within Ukrainian forces and the Ukrainian state's support for the apartheid state of Israel.
But I'm more concerned about rumors that he's 'chopped' and 'Unc' ??
