I know many people my age still have a lot of nostalgia around Harry Potter and might be tempted to watch the new HBO TV series.
Please, I'm begging you, do not tune in.
J.K. Rowling is singularly motivated. The new Harry Potter series is a cash cow intended to fund anti-trans bigotry.

J.K. Rowling is using her wealth attained from the "Harry Potter" series to create an organization dedicated to removing transgender people's rights "in the workplace, in public life, and in protected female spaces.”

Good:
* Poilievre isn't Prime Minister.
* Poilevre lost his own seat.
Bad:
* Everything has shifted substantially rightward.
* 40% of popular vote and +20 seats for Cons.
* Basically a two-party parliament of centre right and far right.
* Left leaning parties wiped out.

I'm so sad to see that Mike Morrice lost his seat in Kitchener center to a conservative candidate.... Such a huge loss for our community.

Should make it so any time they attack an institution that stands up for its values against the fascist regime, that institution gets far _more_ support than it had before
would literally go to war for wikipedia, i donate monthly and you should too
If Wikipedia didn’t exist, I don’t think it would be created in today’s internet. Don’t take it for granted.

Wikipedia is probably one of the last places online that Trump and his ilk can't control the narrative. It's unsurprising but devastating. Consider supporting Wikimedia foundation if you can.

Apparently my mil is so displeased by seeing photos of Trump in the Toronto Star that for every article he appears in, she emails the author asking for a PDF of the article without images. They've always responded so far.
I hope I still have that level of gumption when I'm 70.

Super easy to blame "the rest of Ontario" for Ford's 11-minute victory, when the larger problem remains that there is no one to vote for. the Liberals/NDP don't care, they don't bother trying to care. They don't stand for much beyond "Doug Bad, let me keep my job" and its why no one votes for them

Ford’s promises of being able to stand up to Trump are a farce. What a premier could meaningfully be doing is making Ontario strong though healthcare, education, housing, infrastructure, etc — and Ford has failed Ontario on each one. Vote him out!
