Let us not forget the tragedies of Hiroshima and Nagasaki 80 years ago. I recently visited Hiroshima and the Memorial Park, A woman spoke to us about living through Hiroshima when she was a young girl. There’s a mound that holds the remains of 70,000 people.

Fuck it.
I’m releasing these.

The police seized all of my lasers during this operation. I have a court date in my future. #FreeLordLaser #FreeLadyLaser

I will tell the whole story later. But it was all worth it to release these images on this day.

“Good men must not obey the law too well.”

I was in too much haste, and now have no time left.

They are wonderful ! Local food, minimal waste and a grocery list every weekend. I will go back when the pickup location works for me.

I was using PieceMeal until this spring and it was soooo nice to have someone else do the planning.

I have hit a new level of food malaise

Yeah. Only Heather Cox Richardson though.

Anyone who belongs to any minority group needs to be aware that what is being done to trans people can and will be done to them. In a decade we have been stripped of our rights to exist in public spaces by a press campaign and a well funded lobby.

Kyiv bids farewell to journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna, who was tortured to death by russians while in captivity. On the square, people knelt in her honor.

Some of these men had been custody since last summer. 🙄

The drought in Nova Scotia and its link to climate change - Halifax Examiner While we brace ourselves to expect the unexpected, we can anticipate and prepare. To do anything less would be irresponsible.

Crime is falling but many people believe it's rising – a very clear illustration of partisan media and algorithmic media's power to warp people's perceptions of the world around them 🧵

Great example of a growing body of research looking at downstream effects of administrative burdens on health @sebjilke.bsky.social @pamherd.bsky.social

Hard agree! I don’t think I could have been a reporter without my ADHD. A blessing and a curse

That looks great !

“It’s unimaginable, really, to have been treated like a feral hog by the most powerful man in the world and still manage to summon this generosity and forbearance.”

Extraordinary resilience. Andry was thrown into a hellhole and subjected to physical and psychological abuse and sexual assault—and has come out on the other side optimistic and forward-looking.

I watched this at lunch and forgot to actually eat my food . What a beautiful person Andry is, despite the evils others have done to him. All the wonder and horror of humanity in one journey. 💔

It's a challenge in feminist organizing. Most gender equality efforts, at least in the short term, increase hostility from men. Because men perceive equality as a zero-sum game. Yet no group ever won emancipation by convincing their oppressor to grant them freedom

I am beginning to think that Republican transphobia does not, in fact, have fuck all to do with supporting the athletic endeavors of women

Think we're beyond racial discrimination in the Canadian job market?
Seasoned workers are always preferred to youth, but look at the differences among youth, between the races and young men and women.
Arab women (hijab policy/attitude?) is the worst.
Black young men most challenged to land a job.

I hope Tim and the rest of the crew continue to stand by Andry.

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

Just a note that these are likely career civil servants, and their firing is illegal, but the Supreme Court has chosen not to stop the purge of government employees for partisan reasons.

At this point... as the world burns, as temperatures rise, as the climate descends into chaos, I don't know how to understand the doubling down on fossil fuels as anything other than at best looting what's left, but that's too generous; it's simply a death cult's enthusiastic embrace of extinction.

I have one painful/hilarious story about a high school party and fog in Hubley, but it’s pretty rare.
