Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

Deep snow covers the foot path that leafs away into the depths of the forest, the barren branches and foliage laden with wet, pristine snow

Colmar, located in the northeast of France 🇫🇷 is a picturesque city known as the “jewel of Alsace” and the capital of its wines. 🍷

Star Trek has always been about exploring the human condition while also having some fun, thought provoking, and weird sci-fi concepts.

Water-stressed BC towns want the province to stop 'giving water away' to industry

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Residents of US community outraged after learning why their water supply suddenly ran dry: 'Who is going to compensate us?' "We should know better."

Guaranteed this will happen in Alberta with Smith's big push for data centres.

I discovered Israeli government procurement documents showing a Canadian group that's sending right-wing media personalities on free trips to Israel was granted funds from Israel's foreign ministry

The funding came through an arm of the ministry focused on managing “public perception of Israel”

The only details these people care about in situations like this is the race and gender of the perpetrators

The reason they are fixated on those details is because they are bigots

The solution to homelessness is NOT a bigger police budget. The solution to homelessness is to #TaxTheRich and build homes for all (with well-funded Housing First supports like Finland). #yyj #bcpoli

Important speech by Spain’s PM. I’ve posted about it before without linking to the speech. The utterly malignant #ElonMusk prepares his attack. Tech zillionaires like Zuckerberg are building giant bunkers rather than using their power to make the world better. It’s way past time to fight back.

BC Must Overhaul the Province’s Forestry Industry, Report Says | The Tyee A council created as part of the Greens’ decision to back the NDP says the government can’t ‘keep kicking this can down the road.’

A forest advisory council has recommended shifting B.C.’s forest regime towards more local decision-making.

The plan has received applause, but some experts warn the plan lacks teeth and risks putting fragile forest ecosystems at risk. @zoeyunker.bsky.social reports. #bcpoli #OldGrowth

Newest B.C. forestry review fails to protect old-growth Provincial Forestry Advisory Council report recycles past reviews, continues “talk-and-log” in B.C. VICTORIA/UNCEDED lək̓ʷəŋən TERRITORIES — A new forestry report released yesterday, entitled From Con...

“The problem isn’t caused by a lack of reports or recommendations or incomplete data, but by the fact that the province won’t limit logging in the most at-risk forests.”

It just makes you sick to see the taxpayer pretty much giving bailouts to private companies. #bcpoli

Great thread by Merlin on why a change in fees makes sense at BC Parks. Of course like I also believe, we need to see the long neglected infrastructure repairs and investments completed, but need to ensure transparency that these new fees actually go back into the parks. #bcpoli #bcparks #exploreBC

1/ What does today’s Provincial Forestry Advisory Council report recommend?

-Better Data
-Regional decision-making
-Independent oversight (cross-ministry, nonpartisan, long-term)
-Reimagine BCTS

The US used to be a constitutional republic.

It is now a pluto-kakistocracy.

Read this description and ask yourself if this is a good summation of how the US is now:

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year:

“As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

Trevor Noah: "Song of the Year, congratulations Billie Eilish. That's a Grammy every artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because now that Epstein's Island is gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton."
