In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

„Well, the news that "the recipient of the 'FIFA Peace Award for outstanding achievements in promoting peace and international understanding' is using military force to put last year's Nobel Peace Prize winner at the head of a puppet regime" would be a logical continuation of current world history.“
Naja, die Nachricht „Träger des ‚FIFA-Friedenspreis für herausragende Leistungen für Frieden und Völkerverständigung‘ setzt die letztjährige Friedensnobelpreisträgerin mit Militärgewalt an die Spitze eines Marionettenregimes“ wäre eine konsequente Fortsetzung der aktuellen Weltsgeschichte.

🧪 That's great. I've always wondered how physics can explain everything when you need independent standards for time, space, and mass. I would prefer zero standards, but for now I'm quite happy with a single time standard. Unfortunately, I've always considered time to be a mysterious concept.
A group of physicists has proved that we can describe all of nature with only one constant.

🧪 Look! Something really happens inside a fusion reactor!
Taming the Edge: Lithium meets fusion plasma on ST40
Watch lithium injected into plasma in our ST40 tokamak - a key step in improving fusion performance. Lithium helps calm energy bursts (ELMs) and boost energy confinement. Our ST40 tokamak is the perfect platform to test future fusion tech.

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

I am from Germany, and I am old enough to have had parents and grandparents who lived through Nazi Germany. Not every arrest is fascism. However, the organized manner in which this government enables these cruelties definitely has a 1933 vibe. You should not be sarcastic about the obvious parallels.
Yes, every arrest is fascism. Every court case is fascism. All things are fascism. Fascism is anything you believe it can be.
In all sincerity, sir, what say you @radiofreetom.bsky.social ? Would it be appropriate to call ICE, specifically, a fascist arm of the current regime?
