ABC (fired Kimmel for criticizing Trump) & CBS (fired Colbert for criticizing Trump) are now state media. Trump controls them. We need to break up these corporate media conglomerates before they completely destroy our democracy.

Global News laid off 26 journalists in B.C. and Alberta today.

In B.C. the layoffs include virtually all of the online team, along with many others.

The business is increasingly cruel, and the hollowing out of newsrooms providing fair and reliable information continues to suck.

lol this is real life. and it’s the right call. and we should laugh when we can bc the horrors persist.
Federal prosecutors on Tuesday were unable to secure a felony assault indictment against a man who threw a sandwich at a federal agent on the streets of Washington this month, according to two people familiar with the matter.

This resonates - find time for joy *because* things are on fire.

I find myself easily mired in the muck and this is a good reminder that this is just the latest muck, keep going anyway.
Just saw someone repost this so I thought I'd resurface it for everyone. It's still relevant.
Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:

1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;

2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;

3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

Folks, give @victoria.ca a follow on this platform.

Our comms team is facing the reality of going from 40,000 X followers to 978 Bluesky followers. We’re doing the right thing by ditching the toxic platform, but we need those followers back.

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

First they come for the comedians, then the cartoonist. Kings fear being laughed at. We have a funny bone to pick with/without a smile on our faces #Colbert #Kimmel #SethMeyers #DailyShow

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

I love late night shows and will always love late night shows. There’s a showbiz magic to hundreds of people throwing together an entire entertainment program for a live studio audience that will then be on television that same night. Regardless of business or if you like them, just kind of magical.

Elon saying he’s going to reprogram his chatbot’s view of history is a perfect example of why these kinds of AI products aren’t the neutral “tools” people always defend them as. They’re little political projects reflecting the ideologies of their creators

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure.

- Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes
- We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles
- We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

The debate commission failed. They failed to take up the battle to keep right wing grifters out putting journalists at risk. It is insane that cbc needed additional security in a secured area.
If the party that aligns with these grifters wins, this agitation circus will go to parliament.
I’ve been at this for nearly 28 years. I have my dream job. But if you had told me 28 years ago things would be this toxic I would have done something else.
