Guess they ran out of harvested souls to keep him alive.

Dick Cheney was a cruel bureaucrat who made corrupt institutions more abusive. Officials in those institutions then surrendered what was left of their morals to accommodate his evil vision. In time, those institutions became even more corrupt. What politicians say today will be revealing of the rot.

A must read for a look back to 2016, when it all started.

Escalation, Authoritarian “Normalization,” or a Democratic Turnaround? One year after the election: What we can say with certainty about the state of the Trumpist assault, where uncertainty lies, and where America might go from here

Where America stands, one year after the election.

A fascistic movement controls the government; they are building an authoritarian state; but they have not been able yet to extend authoritarian rule across society. A democracy no more, but not a consolidated autocratic regime yet.

I’m good as long as they don’t slow roll these recalls. The UCP has again underestimated their popularity and the determination of Albertans.

Albertans may eventually suffer from petition fatigue – but not just yet! Who thought Jason Kenney’s recall legislation would be a medium for public anger at the UCP? albertapolitics.ca/2025/11/albe...

Did I hear correctly today that there was a budget request for $13M to deal with all the expected recalls, and elections Alberta was given $1.3M instead? Starve the process to protect their incompetence? This better be headline news in the @calgaryherald.com and the @edmontonjournal.com tomorrow

People are easier to control when they are hungry and sick. Hard to watch from up here 🇨🇦

Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult.

Sounds bad. Maybe someone who can impeach him should impeach him for this or any number of weekly (daily?) impeachable offences. But alas…

And add this to the mix - it’s bad. www.404media.co/a16z-backed-...

How do late-Cold War ballistic missiles have accuracy of meters, no idea of weather?

They fall at 7km/s. Traversing the troposphere in 2 seconds.
Greatest entrance of error was earth gravitational variance. They didn't use GPS or radio or cameras.

It is The End Of The World.

Young Men in the Hate-o-Sphere Recently, CBC ran a story about how the Poilievre Conservatives are touring Canadian universities to build support among young men.

The far right radicalization of young men is a serious issue. Fanning male rage was a big part of the MAGA movement and is part of the game plan on the Polievre Conservatives.
In my latest piece I discuss the toxic impacts on schools and democracy.
