I'm a middle aged Queer nerd who immigrated to Canada with my wife in 2003 & squandered my best years & my talents playing video games. Expect Leftist political content, pop culture/collectible/gaming enthusiasm, and swooning over how cute my pets are.

Trump wrongly indicted me. I’ll rightly impeach him.

Impeachment isn’t just an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent — but is it working?

Me to Capitalists when they sneer about the failures of Socialism:

"Show me an actually socialist country that the U.S. didn't immediately work overtime to destablize or overthrow, or invade & I'll show you a pink unicorn that shits rainbow ice cream & pisses Baja Blast Mountain Dew".

Chuck Schumer needs to resign, retire quietly, & never show his face in public again while he waits to die in disgrace.

If PM Carney is serious about his government not having all the good ideas and open to ideas then I have a suggestion. How about reforming the archaic social net into a functional UBI and truly investing in people and not leaving anyone behind.I think that would be a good start.That would be bold.

The US government is intentionally impoverishing a large chunk of the population.

This inequality is unsustainable. No one needs to or should make this much more than the people whose labour companies need to succeed.

In 2022, workers on average got a 3% pay increase. But prices increased by over 6%. So we lost 4% in pay.

Tax the rich. Fund social services & UBI. 3/3

An Israeli company is causing homelessness in the U.S.

If you still don't get it, you can't be helped
Today's must-read by @thomasbirm.bsky.social: a major corporate landlord is fueling homelessness across the U.S. *and* the mass displacement of Palestinians in the West Bank.

The Israeli company owns tens of thousands of apartments in the South, filing evictions at nine times the national average.
The Eviction Kings
One of Israel’s biggest companies is taking over huge swaths of US real estate—and tenants are paying the price.

In the most disturbing news I've seen today, they found over 300 "piles" of human cremated remains in the Nevada desert. Zip ties were also found among some of the piles. 🤨

I'm not going to hold out much hope for cops picking the right side of history, but it would be a novel & refreshing disruption of the prevailing status quo.
Never in my life did I think I would see this from a mayor to police: “We would like the Aurora Police Department to play a historic role in defending the United States of America, and our city against fascism. We have a unique opportunity to do something different….”
I haven't seen people here mention this letter from the mayor of Illinois' 2nd-largest city (Aurora, 40+% Latino)

to the Aurora Police

following egregious attacks by immigration in Aurora and related protests

So here it is!
