I think Gladlands is gonna be my favorite season of Dimension 20. This week's episode is so sweet and real.

I love that The Pitt S2 has a new graduate nurse character, haven't really seen a medical drama follow a new nurse b4. I have only heard of one or two.

he also said that 80% of antifa's members are landlords and if you lower the cost of housing, you basically starve the network of its financing

Image of an orange poster stuck with to a textured black wall. The middle of the poster contains a graphic of fireworks with a no symbol. Above the graphic it reads: "Please No Fireworks On July 1st!" Underneath the graphic, it reads: "Consider not celebrating colonialism, land theft, & genocide. This, or any 'Canada Day'.

There is no “but Hamas”—no history, ideology, or nuance that can justify the gleeful, gamified slaughter of starving children. No nation on earth has “the right” to exist. But human beings have the right to live in safety.

After making a speech to graduates, Manitoba's accessibility and gender equality minister Nahanni Fontaine was recorded talking about the American Sign Language interpreter who shared the stage with her, saying the interpreter was distracting.

The Manitoban minister of accessibility told her ASL interpreter to leave the stage during her speech because it was "distracting".

First, Israel cut Gaza’s last internet cable—blacking out 2.3 million people.

Then it bombed Iran with no UN approval, no imminent threat.

As eyes shift to Iran, Israel will escalate its ethnic cleansing in Gaza—and create more regional instability.

Was watching Masterchef Australia and got rly confused when they called the starter an entrée.
Apparently outside of the US and Anglophone Canada, "entrée" means appetizer and not the main course 😭

The Manitoba legislature has passed Bill 43, adding gender expression to the provincial human rights code.

In this doom and gloom climate, it's important to mark victories like this, to remember that despite the rise of the far right, we can still organize and win for 🏳️‍🌈 people.

Greta Thunberg responds to an apparent threat by U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who said the activists sailing to Gaza would need to "swim."

"It says a lot about their priorities that, in the face of genocide and systematic starvation of 2 million people, lawmakers … are focusing on mocking people."

Northern Health has issued a drug advisory for the Northern Health region. A round white pill sold as "Oxycocet" has tested positive for isotonitazene.
Isotonitazene or "Nitazene" is a synthetic opioid that is equal or more toxic than fentanyl and is not detected on fentanyl test strips.

Fentanyl is a molecule, it does not compel people to use it and if it suddenly disappeared from the unregulated drug supply, people would still use drugs.

Interdiction is a game of whack-a-mole: fix your gaze on fentanyl too long, then nitazenes arrive.

Funniest detail to me re: Thom Yorke's weird relationship to Israel is that it's the first place Creep really took off so Israel kinda launched Radiohead's career. Israeli music fans could not get enough of a song that asks "what the hell am I doing here" and answers with "I don't belong here."
