Do I love that Pierre Poilievre is bleeding members? Heck yes.

Do I hate that the Liberals are so conservative that it's enticing Conservatives to join them? Heck yes.

Apparently we’ve established that if the US can seize the largest tanker off Venezuela, it can just as easily seize a small, alleged drug boat without murdering the occupants.

My hottest take is that letting cops park in red zones for mundane errands and coffee breaks; I think “you can break the law at your discretion as a job perk” is the small domino that ends in the large domino of “shooting protesters in the face with rubber bullets”
It must be wild to get to abuse the public then pay for it with the public's money

I'm so sad that I'll probably never go to the U.S. ever again. So many amazing cities, so many amazing people. Such an evil oligarchy. Can the U.S. ever redeem itself?
Most Canadians will be exempt from showing 5 years of social media history to gain entry to the United States.

Then again, most Canadians are refusing to set foot in the United States because they feel it’s important to boycott fascism.

This isn’t likely to woo them back:

Some Canadian residents who plan to travel to the U.S. may soon have to their social media history when entering the country.

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

It's not sustainable to pay for every newsletter and Patreon you want to support. I subscribe to MANY and I am going to have to unsubscribe to some because it is costing me thousands of dollars a year (over $3000). More collectivist options need to be developed.

As with everything he says, this is wildly uninformed. Formula keeps getting better and saves lives. And modern research indicates that outcomes are roughly the same. There are reasons to breastfeed but your child isn’t suffering if you don’t
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

Look, at some level, I get that.

But also ... I didn't run for the office of Big Account with a promise to you, the Bluesky voter, to deliver on certain issues.

I just logged onto the same site you did, made some posts, and people followed me.

Half of the comments are by women, BTW. Not getting the joke – and it's a good one – isn't a gendered thing.

Jokes that fly right past the audience are absolute side-splitters for me, I have no idea why. It's kinda like the teller got away with something.
Okay, this is a fascinating case of social media priming.

So, this creator, Sarah Velush, basically has a channel devoted to deadpan lifestyle humour (a la Chef Tova).

But because a progressive account takes it literally and says... this? Hundreds of comments assuming she's an evil tradwife.
I want this woman thrown in prison for at least a decade.
