Tonight Askasleikir (Bowl Licker), the 6th of Iceland's 13 Yule Lads, comes down from the mountains. He likes to hide under beds and steal used bowls to lick them clean.

Children leave their shoes out in the window for him, he gives the good ones a small gift or a treat, the bad ones get a potato.

1) Start the worst European war since 1945 and commit every imaginable war crime
2) Decide how you want to be rewarded for your aggression
3) Leak the list of your desiderata to the US press
4) Wait for the US president to enforce your wish list on your victim.

This is an example of a factful balanced coverage of Charlie Kirk assassination. Of course it comes from Canada. US large media lost the ability long ago to produce something like this youtu.be/cBRYzFACsLc?...

Stopped by the Ottawa Humane Society in Nepean to meet some of the newest staff.

They’re working here because of the Canada Summer Jobs program — a great initiative that connects hardworking young people with opportunities in their community.

USA is no longer a democracy. People are being rounded up and kidnapped by masked government agents. The military has been mobilized against civilians. President ignoring court orders. Due process has been pushed aside. People need to fucking wake up or all will be lost before end of the year

If true, this is such a positive news for our sovereignty here in Canada. Less dependence on the US. We are not going back. The relationship between the two countries is changing in a real way, in a short time for a long time to come 💪🍁
Canadian exporters increasingly shift from U.S. to overseas markets
The Port of Montreal has recorded sharp rises in cargo traffic with many European and Asian countries, data show

A lot of marginalized people do not have patience for the handwringing and crashing out.

America was losing credibility on democracy for years. American anti-intellectualism is a feature. We are a country that turns a blind eye to death, even of children, both at home and abroad.
