Once on a walk with a friend, I spotted a ramp (entrance/exit to a building) and suggested he lie down, feet higher than head. Just as you said →relief! You don't need to spend $2,000!!

‘He has trouble completing a thought’: bizarre public appearances again cast doubt on Trump’s mental acuity Joe Biden was hounded for his age-related gaffes, but Trump’s increasingly strange behavior has largely been ignored

Why 🇨🇦faces even more uncertainty & no rational trade deal with 🇺🇸? If it wasn't obvious before, @theguardian.com spells it out→ (read to the end, bc it's awfully good) www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... @naheednenshi.bsky.social @mark-carney.bsky.social @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

No one should ever have to wonder if their senator or representative is making choices in Congress just to benefit their own wallet.

There's a clear solution: ban Congressional stock trading.

This article asks the kind of tough question that I never hear in 🇨🇦.

Starvation in Gaza is destroying communities – and will leave generational scars Health and societal ramifications of extreme hunger will reverberate long after the war is over

Following this now iconic photo are dozens of stories to discredit its veracity. Even today @savethecbc.bsky.social's Megan Williams did not acknowledge "genocide" when spoken to by guest Palestinian lawyer. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j... @heathermcpherson.bsky.social
What's wrong with us?

The mathematics of starvation: how Israel caused a famine in Gaza Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

And this www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j... At least @savethecbc.bsky.social has begun to note that Netanyahoo is starving hostages too. Certainly they are used as a tool of war by the IDF. Their goals go beyond freeing hostages and they have no plans to stop.

A horrifying photograph and an invitation declined | Letters Letter: Mark Lewinski-Grende on being invited to attend a ceremony to honour his grandparents for saving a child during the conflict in Gaza

People of every stripe - civilians, politicians, police, Jews, Muslims, Christians..- are gutted and turned inside out by what is happening to the people in Gaza. Unlike @savethecbc.bsky.social, photos and journalism that asks real questions such as this: www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

100,000 people came out to march across Sydney Harbour Bridge, police say – as it happened This blog is now closed

What's wrong with us? Pretending something isn't true won't make it go away. Turn to @news.rte.ie @theguardian.com & @aljazeera.com. I get more relief there than from the milky statements by @mark-carney.bsky.social. The truth can galvanize action such as this www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Read whole post incl. article posted by @michael-byers.bsky.social "it means eliminating supports for the oil and gas industry now, or risking having to pay hundreds of billions of dollars in compensation to developing countries later." @climatemamaclaire.bsky.social @anthropocenempg.bsky.social

Utah…

I am being asked if municipal election candidates can include collecting #ForeverCanadian signatures as part of their campaign.

Yes, why wouldn’t you? 90% of Albertans will appreciate it.

All candidates, MLAs, MPs and their teams can be signature collectors.

We have a #Jesus problem in America.

Israel's occupation forces attack on the Red Crescent Headquarters in Israeli occupied Palestine's Gaza Strip killed one staff member and wounded 3 people.

How about equal or more reporting on #genocide and what 🇨🇦is doing (or not doing) about it? If you'd report more, maybe people would take more action.

Another march. How come nothing (yet?) in Bubbleland? @coreyhogan.ca - I hope you're reading @theguardian.com this morning on the 90,000 - 300,000 march in Australia, with the help of police and politicians @ucalgary.bsky.social #yyccc

Words can't communicate how happy I am to laugh this morning and to read a post suitable to the seriousness with which we should take he who can't control his own portions. Especially since I just ate the last of my small piece of chocolate!

Fri Donald J. Trump fired his bathroom scale.

“I told it to lower my weight to 215 and it refused,” he said. “It’s as bad as Jerome Powell.”

Claiming that the bathroom accessory was “rigged by Biden,” Trump said that he had ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute the scale for treason.

Rep. Ana-María Rodríguez Ramos-
“He's caught on video cheating on the golf course; he cheated on his taxes, he cheated on his business loans, he cheated on his wives, he cheated on the business contractor that he stiffed through 40 years of business, he tried to cheat on the 2020 election.” #cdnpoli

A capitalist telling a worker: I got rich through hard work The worker replies: who's though

The capitalist class converts your life-time into leisure-time for themselves. Time to get organized, comrades.

HORROR!

Is the province and @cityofcalgary-rss.bsky.social right out of touch with the needs of people and the environment? (Yes.)

In Calgary they give the trucks away. My nephew goes to sites and is a crane safety person. He sit in his truck (hopefully not with the engine on, though likely, and writes his notes).

@tinybeaches.bsky.social @cgeroux.bsky.social are you listening to The Sunday Edition on CBC? Gave me the idea: build transnational protected bike lanes across 🇨🇦! It'll help with jobs and national pride. #cdnpoli

Indeed, the US has stepped down from important posts such as on the environment. I wish it would step down from sending munitions to Israel.
