Gender-based violence support groups criticize planned federal funding cuts - Capital Current Organizations combating gender-based violence may face significant challenges because of a proposed 80 per cent federal funding budget cut.

"Lalonde criticized the lack of attention to women’s issues more generally during the federal election.

“That was a huge red flag that we saw in the election season, and we’ve seen it played out since women are not part of the conversation,” Lalonde said."

Folks, Israel is not letting aid in which means Palestinians continue to have to buy food on the black market from Israel sponsored gangs. If you can donate a little money to the fundraisers we're posting, you can keep someone alive. Palestinians wouldn't beg if they didn't have to.

If you use AI assets or AI to fundraise then it shows me whatever you’re doing is just not serious and you don’t care enough to even put yourself into ir

It is rational to fear what covid does to the body.

And this ableist machismo, separating "fear" and rational thinking, isn't helpful here. They aren't dichotomous.

It is rational to mask in order to avoid covid, long covid, spreading covid, and causing others to have long covid.

I continue to be angry that we all got blamed for causing coral bleaching by using sunscreen, based on a single paper that hasn't been repeatable, but the actual cause of coral bleaching keeps getting ignored by the general public even as the papers proving it keep stacking up.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Golden Dome signals change to Canada’s long-time opposition to joining U.S. missile defence Canada opted to stay on the sidelines in 2005 as the U.S. developed defences against ballistic missiles

My naive wish is that even one Canadian journalist, one politician, one security analyst, would address the implications of Canada choosing military integration with an authoritarian power that no longer respects the rule of law or international law.
Looks like that’s not going to happen today.

“Carney’s decision to work with Donald Trump on an advanced missile shield ... will set the stage for deepening military co-operation between the two countries.”

How much more directly can it be said? This is deeper integration. Where you buy your guns doesn’t matter if you’re still on Team USA.

When it comes to public health and outbreak response capacity, what happens in America doesn’t stay in America.

If the CDC is eviscerated it will have ripple effects the world over.

Many viruses are airborne and were in a time of global travel.

This is a threat to everyone.

It is morally wrong to want a computer to be sentient. If you owned a sentient thing, you would be a slaver. If you want sentient computers to exist, you just want to create a new kind of slavery. The ethics are as simple as that. Sorry if this offends

Jesus Christ

American man gets heart from 38-year-old Ontario ALS patient who died by MAID Doctors are reporting what they are describing as the first successful use of a donor heart obtained after medical aid in dying.

Canada is a world leader in organ donation after euthanasia

While I understand the desire to donate your organs when choosing to end your life…how can we ensure disabled people aren’t pressured?

We’ve already heard reports of people being called to “discuss” organ donation if they qualify for MAiD

feels a bit weird that we keep having these stories about individual cyber attacks but without anyone really joining the dots and going "okay, shall we maybe talk about this as a major global story"

Israeli Defense Minister says half a million Palestinians in Gaza City will be considered ‘terrorists’ if they don’t evacuate With at least half a million people still left in Gaza City, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a “final warning” for residents to evacuate, saying those who remain will be regarded as “terro...

Black people actually did call all of this, so did Indigenous people. White people just thought we were exaggerating because you were fine with the violence toward communities that you thought wouldn't include you. But the thru line from eugenics, bleach, and Ivermectin to here was incredibly clear

This is why we fund scientists to study things like oyster slobber even if you don’t think it sounds important

JESUS GOD

"...atrocities do not begin with action; they begin with imagination, with the suggestion that some lives are worth less, that their removal might even be merciful...we survive by insisting that our lives have value, that our consent matters, and that history will not repeat if we refuse to let it."

And it’s worth reading the alt text for the photo as well.

If you pick up the Guardian Weekend Magazine today, please read about my daughter Milly’s battle with Lyme disease. And if you’re feeling bold, drop your copy into your local GP. There are thousands of Millys out there. Most are currently not helped at all by the NHS or, worse, not believed.

Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

Disabled people are particularly vulnerable to abuse under fascism.

ICE has been neglecting the medical needs of detainees.

One disabled immigrant, Rodney Taylor, needs our help.

He's a double amputee who's been in the country since he was two years old. He's being held in solitary:

ICE Warden Put Transgender Detainees into Forced Labor Program: Complaint A federal complaint accuses the warden of creating an ad hoc work program used to demean trans detainees.

Happy Stanislav Petrov Day! On this day one man prevented the apocalypse.

JUST NOW AT THE UN…

📍 Pisa, Italy 🇮🇹 🇵🇸

On Monday, the city's firefighters joined the national strike for Gaza, and several chiefs knelt in front of the Palestinian flag in honour of the victims of Israel's genocide.

Almost hard to believe

Italy has moved me to tears for 3 days straight. Bravo ❤️

Exclusive: LNG Expansion Brings New Health Risks to Kitimat | The Tyee The project’s fast-tracked second phase would push a key pollutant far above current limits, documents reveal.

@mark-carney.bsky.social & @liberalca.bsky.social are willing to risk the health and wellness of multiple communities over this endeavor, but none will be hit harder than Kitimat.

These liberals don't care about anyone, and only care about money. Do not give into their performative bullshit.
