Boycott, divest from, or exclude from contracts these complicit US companies.

Raps got some injury luck on that trip, including Wallace leaving this game. But 4-1, winning all sorts of ways? You have to start to believe this team is a bit more than the sum of its parts.

You cannot overstate how startling it is to see a politician just say the thing with clarity and poise. No fearful hemming. No overwrought qualifying down til it’s meaningless. No lingering sense that there is a loyalty to a donor class or an ideology of stasis that they’d never admit to.

After five years of not having a serviceable centre rotation does any trade for any competent centre count as fake, Eric?

the perennial "is this a good replacement for twitter / can it become as big as twitter" discussion is so confused. hominids became bipedal about 7 million years ago. for most of the time since we did not have microblogging. it's not a necessity it's a habit, if it all goes away that's fine

Sheepy by @mrsuicidesheep.bsky.social is genuinely one of the best platformers I’ve ever played, and maybe games, honestly. Buy it right now, play it right soon.

In a sane world, Kelowna’s vacancy rate hitting almost 7% would have lead to an even further drop in rent prices. Instead, it’s just a gambit to let Airbnb further encroach into the community: www.castanet.net/news/Kelowna...

Spotify Confirms ICE Recruitment Ads Are No Longer Running on Platform Spotify has confirimed that ICE recruitment ads are no longer running on its platform following criticism from last year.

Oh shit! Y’all made this one sound amazing

Sometimes all you can do is make the world 0.0000000000001% less awful by being a good person and it feels very meaningless but it’s also the only thing that really matters

Are you going to exchange it for the black and white one? I heard that screen is quite good.
