Conservatives pretend liberals are unpatriotic and then write this garbage for the National Trash because 19% of Albertans, snorting lines of Fox News & White Replacement Theory for breakfast, are eager sell us out for pennies on the dollar for the privilege of filing for medical bankruptcy.
Screenshot of an article by complete tool and Costa Rica resident, John Ivison, with the following captions: "If Trump wants our “post-national”country more than we do, we should give it to him." And: "With our 'post-national' leader it's no wonder Trump thinks we aren't a real country."

Wonderful suggestion. He can occupy his time by cleaning up the beaches of plastic garbage and contemplate all the horrible life choices that landed him there.
Screenshot of Wikipedia Google results, showing 2 aerial pictures of a small island, with the following caption: In mid-March 2012, the crew from the Clipperton Project noted the widespread presence of refuse, particularly on the northeast shore, and around the Clipperton Rock. Debris, including plastic bottles and containers, create a potentially harmful environment for the island's flora and fauna.

Trump's team and Canada's Conservative Party share the same Shutterstock account.

Conservatives - uneducated since forever. 🙃
Avice tweet from Twitter, dated March 27, 2024. "A perfect example of how conservatives will lie, or faithfully delude themselves, is how vehemently they claim the @CPC_HQ's $75 aFoRDaBiLiTY, whoops, "cOMmOn SEnSe" jersey depicts any mountain other than Switzerland's (magnificent) Matterhorn."

Looks like Trump's team is coordinating their graphics with the Conservative Party of Canada. Back in March 2024, Pierre Poilievre's CPC was selling $75 "Canadian" jerseys with Switzerland's Matterhorn on it too. 🙃
Graphic of blue mountain peaks on a white background with the words "Common Sense For Canada" underneath that appeared of a Conservative Party of Canada political jersey. The main mountain depicted is the Matterhorn, which is in Switzerland and not in Canada.

Sometimes I just need to tell someone to GF themselves. This is the only service Twitter offers now.
Avice quote tweeting: Your country just allowed Melon Husk to buy your highest office for a sexual assaulting felon and are cheerfully entertaining setting up detention camps for immigrants. We don't want any of your unhinged corrupt shit. GFY Forever. 🙂 🇨🇦 Original quoted tweet by Matthew Yglesias: Annexation is clearly a good idea that would make both Americans and Canadians better off but nobody talks about it except in the context of occasional nationalist bluster.

Officially spending most of my time on Bluesky now! But I still check in on the bad place from time to time. ⬇️👀
My increasingly infrequent visits here feel similar to seeing the monkey exhibit at the Zoo. I'm checking the levels of unhinged fuckery before I return to grown up conversations at the happy place. I see the latest fuckery is treason. Canadian Cons always find a new low. 🙃

Guys! There was a REAL LIVE OWL at my local wild bird feed store today. Luna here, a Western Screech Owl, was hit by a car and unfortunately cannot be returned to the wild, so he travels around educating folks on how awesome he his. 💜🌿🦉💫

Great breakdown and valuable read. Particularly agree with this assessment on blocking. ⬇️
Generally speaking, Bluesky adheres to the same ethos that most people adopt in the real world. You are under zero obligation to listen to an asshole verbally abuse you just because you both happen to be at the same grocery store. You are allowed to tell him to shut up and to leave the premises. Same idea.

This is my absolute favourite part:
Donning protective gear, the staff were able to catch the little guy and start to put it into the cage. “At which point it walked right in, turned around, grabbed the door by his hand and shut it,” Walton said. “It’s like, ‘I’ve had enough of this’.”

I wrote a letter to MP Garnett Genuis about his video defending the CPC voting NO to supporting Ukraine and the Bill C-57 for the modernized Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement.

Got a first time bloomer in my garden here, and she is amazing. This one is At Last and its vibrant orange/apricot is really stunning. She's also blessed with a super strong sweet true rose fragrance that's just out of this world. Another new favourite! 🧡🌼😊💫

Rufus had a very scary syncope episode this evening and his heart and breathing stopped for what felt like forever. But he's awake and alive and is staying at the vet hospital tonight. Skarsgård-kitten and I will be 😭😭 all night without him.

Well, we're all still alive today, so to celebrate here's Day 2 of my Love & Peace rose bloom. She's just gonna keep getting better! 🌼🪷🌿💜

Happy Friday Bluesky! Today's rose is yellow with choral pink edges and is called Love & Peace. She's the happiest rose in my garden, given this is the first season they're all in actual ground and not pots. The blooms change with sun exposure & I'll post progression pics as she opens more. 😊💜🌼🌿🪷

Guys, just the lack of off-the-wall ads every 3 posts is amazing in and of itself. After months of blocking on the Bad App, I was getting this kind of irresistible product.

Oooo, the pressure of the first post... So I'm going to go with bright and beautiful and one of my true joys in life. From my garden: Loving Memory Rose, which smells citrusy and the bloom is positively giant - as big as my whole handspan.🌹🌿

I'm also hella into politics, but that's for next time. 😅
