It should not be controversial to say that the starvation of Gaza’s children is wrong, @julieebeck.bsky.social argues:
It Should Not Be Controversial to Plead for Gaza’s Children
Israel’s limits on aid have put the region at “critical risk of famine.” Help is within reach. But it’s not enough—and it’s arriving too slowly.

Exquisite response by Georgetown Dean to interim USA Ed Martin

On Martin's threat letter not to hire grads until Martin approves of law school curriculum:

"The constitutional violation behind this threat is clear, as is the attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution."

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying.

WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

The People Carrying Out Musk’s Plans at DOGE

Save this NYT’s piece as a comprehensive list of the names behind DOGE—the unsanctioned agency dismantling our government and not actually efficient or transparent about waste or fraud. DOGE IS THE FRAUD!

Wayne Gretzky as Team Canada's honorary captain infuriates Canadians online ahead of 4 Nations final: 'Just plain tone deaf'
From his friendship with U.S. President Donald Trump, to not sporting any Team Canada colours, many are questioning why Gretzky was even chosen.

On this day in 1942, German tanks and soldiers marched through Winnipeg. The mayor, premier and Lt. Governor were arrested. The city was renamed Himmlerstadt, books were burned and the swastika flag flew around the city.
This is the story of Winnipeg's If Day.

The photo is a black-and-white image of a military parade in an urban setting, likely from the mid-20th century. It shows several small tanks or armored vehicles driving down a city street, with soldiers in helmets riding in them. The street is lined with multi-story buildings, vintage cars, and streetcars, suggesting a historical context, possibly during World War II.

Me: I chose my friends not because they’re useful but, rather, because they’re smart, compassionate and funny. I choose to say things that are true, kind and informative.

Canadians: so just an ordinary Canadian, eh?

Me: exactly.

Vive Le Canada.
Long live Canada.

Be clear about this. Only a tiny percentage of fentanyl comes from Canada.
“ less than 1% of all fentanyl seizures occurred at the U.S.-Canada border.“

Tariff On Canada Not Justified By U.S. Immigration And Drug Claims
Evidence suggests that the justification for a 25 percent import tariff on Canadian goods and services does not hold up to scrutiny. Here is why.

There are literally whole musicals about this. That was then

After American airspace was closed on 9/11, over 230 flights with 30,000 passengers and crew were diverted to Canadian airports. Transport Canada received thousands of calls from members of the public offering to help the stranded passengers.

Thinking about that today, for no particular reason.

I talked to 10 current and former Meta employees about the company's surrender to the right on speech issues. All were upset. One person called the changes "a precursor to genocide" www.platformer.news/meta-fact-ch...
But in its panicked retreat from the system it spent years building, Meta may now be putting billions of users at risk. Just because Meta deleted that line about hateful speech causing offline violence doesn't mean it isn't true. And now the company has all but declared open season on immigrants, transgender people and whatever other targets that Trump and his allies find useful in their fascist project. "I can't tell you how much harm comes from non-illegal but harmful content," a longtime former trust and safety employee at the company told me. The classifiers that the company is now switching off meaningfully reduced the spread of hate movements on Meta's platforms, they said. "This is not the climate change debate, or pro-life vs. pro-choice. This is degrading, horrible content that leads to violence and that has the intent to harm other people."

I’ve been trying to figure out how to verbalize exactly this. 100% agree.

Canada Post is a public service and we should NOT expect it to make a profit. Do we expect parks to turn a profit? Or emergency services? Do roads turn a profit? Canada Post provides a broad service to Canadians and SHOULD be government funded and maintained.
