Oh god. I can barely handle a normal puzzle. That would definitely make me snap.

Spending my Saturday night putting together a puzzle and listening to Kneecap. I’ve decided it’s a revolutionary act. ✊🏼

My greatest fear right now is not the UCP. It’s whether we have the right forces in place to stop them.

When are you announcing the winner of the Daveberta Peace Prize?

i think to understand the meaning of the birthright citizenship clause to the framers of the 14th amendment, you have to understand significance of dred scott to the civil war republican party. dred scott wasn't just a bad ruling, it was understood as a rejection of the declaration itself.

“A policeman in a black community is a licensed killer. A licensed killer. A black man attacking a policeman is a rioter.” —Stokely Carmichael

I think of that quote a lot when I think about Israel/Palestine.

Let it wash over you. SAMRAICHE.

Sam Mraiche is no longer a person. It’s a way of life.

The article also conveniently ignores the fact that Liricon Capital is owned by Adam Waterous, who is a billionaire. Why should taxpayers be on the hook for him?

Trump admin removes MLK Day, Juneteenth from National Parks fee-free days In place of these days, the Trump administration has opted to celebrate more former presidents' birthdays and Trump's birthday.

Trump has removed MLK Day and Juneteenth as national holidays for visitors to get free admission to national parks and replaced them with his own birthday.

I think it’s worth mentioning that the manufactured excuse the U.S. is using to murder people in the Caribbean is the same manufactured excuse they used to discuss annexing Canada.

According to this Supreme Court:

❌ Using race conscious admissions in college to give minorities a fair shot

✅ Using race to profile people on the street to detain for immigration sweeps

✅ Using race to disenfranchise minorities in elecciones

The only consistency is white supremacy.

Alberta government hires PR firm during teacher strike! 🤯 Read the full story and comment on TownAndCountryToday.com

$200k during the teachers strike. Another $300k in May related to the Alberta Next nonsense. A half million dollars worth of sole source contracts in less than six months going to a firm with connections to the UCP. Just a normal day in Alberta.

“I consider their refusal to drown a legitimate reason to murder them” is quite the argument.

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves

I do not care at all for these modern leadership rules. A foundational principle of a parliamentary democracy is responsible government. Whether you or government or opposition, if you can’t hold the support of your caucus, you step down.

Put together a playlist honouring The Colonel. Every song on here features Mr. Cropper either as a guitar player, songwriter, or producer. It's not even close to covering the vast catalogue of work he put together during his lifetime. Hope you Al, and Duck are laying down some grooves with Otis. 🙏

Fuck, this one hurts, for me the greatest guitarist, a musician in the service of the band and the song, who played on and helped create a wild succession of the finest records ever made. RIP Steve Cropper.

Oh, man. This one hurts. One of the most important musicians in the history of rock n’ roll.

I went to Ainlay in the early 90s and there was a rumour that one of the female English teachers had slept with him. I always thought she was the one who started the rumour. 😂

We should probably just skip the demand for an inquiry at this point and call for Smith to step down. We’re far beyond the corruption and competency threshold.

From back when I used to run things. 😂

I like discussing politics—obviously—but I miss people talking about TV shows and music and thunderstorms. Talking, not just sharing.
