Somebody should invent a socioeconomic system which is good at allocating resources

Dear Carney fans: It's real people losing their jobs. Please try to keep that in mind when you rationalize cuts as being about getting rid of waste.

Sigh. Still with this?

Biden-Harris could have abolished ICE, but instead they expanded ICE prisons.

Harris ran on Trump being *too soft* on immigration.

Harris could have ended a genocide *and* won the election.

Horrifying. Liam’s family has an an open asylum case. This is kidnapping (hostage taking by the state) and torture, under international humanitarian law.

In Ontario, it’s a time of plenty for private health care while public hospitals starve - CCPA Ontario public hospitals face large deficits even as the provincial government doles out more cash to for-profit providers.

No child should live in detainment. No child is illegal. A country that jails children must be stopped.

Hey everyone - I started a Toronto East-enders starter pack. I'm always curious about who else lives in our zone - roughly Don Valley to Victoria Park, waterfront to Taylor Creek (but flexible). I know there's people I follow who I didn't include, so reply for me to add you. go.bsky.app/9psq3Hq

Brilliant idea to name heat waves like we name hurricanes. Name wildfires too - after the fossil fuel corps and politicians who fail to protect us through egregious policies

Thank you!

Please add me! I'm near Donlands & Danforth.

In news from the occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reports Israeli soldiers are forcing Palestinians to evacuate a number of buildings, including schools and kindergartens, in the town of Kafr Aqab amid escalating Israeli raids across the West Bank.

A screenshot of WhatsApp: Ash: Sebastián, I have one very pressing question. Sebastián Di Martino: Let me know Ash: Are jaguar soft? Sebastián Di Martino: They are very soft (two hearts on the answer)

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

"One lifestyle habit that could [definitely will] put you at risk of long Covid"?

⚠️ Not wearing an #N95 mask. Actually.

Yet another waste of research funding for #LongCOVID.

And yet another example of poor journalism on the subject of Long COVID.

This will continue to happen as long as Covid is allowed to spread relentlessly in schools. The virus can cause immune dysregulation, making kids more susceptible to other infections and reactivations

Apparently ethnic cleansing fits with these companies’ terms of service.

Grateful to journalists like Rachel & the Globe’s Joe Costaldo & @seansilcoff.bsky.social dissecting their activities.

Next step is to explore their surveillance in Canada (hint: police).

Quantifying the Influence of Climate on Human Conflict Across disciplinary boundaries, recently published evidence links climate change to increased violent conflict.

A global meta-analysis of 60 studies spanning 10,000 BC to the present found climate stress was linked to conflict

Each 1 SD ⬆️ in temperature or extreme rainfall was associated with a 14% increase in intergroup conflict & 4% increase in interpersonal violence

Ontario and Canada needs to think about this.

"Those who were violent and those who were not have equal responsibility to be nonviolent" should lead to some pretty obvious conclusions. Unless you're NYT editorial in which case, "both the perpetrators and the victims had a responsibility not to do it but never mind who did it."

#OtD 25 Jan 1995 Manchester United football legend Eric Cantona kung fu kicked a fascist football hooligan, who attended far-right NF and BNP rallies and had convictions for violent crime including attacking an anti-fascist. Commemorative merch here: shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

That's an armoured vehicle sold to ICE by a Canadian company btw.

Some of us were furious about the sale of such vehicles to Saudi Arabia under Harper/Trudeau, and we are equally furious about this under Trudeau/Carney.

Somali Business Owners Spearhead Minnesota Shutdown Against ICE - PopularResistance.Org “We are not backing down. We’re here to stay and we’re here to fight,” said Kadija, a Somali small business owner in Minneapolis. Kadija is one of hundreds of small business owners participating in what is rapidly developing into a historic, multi-sector general strike in Minnesota on January 23. Zahra Abdullah, owner of the Somaliweyn Community Center in Minneapolis, told Peoples Dispatch that her community is fully committed to driving Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) out of the state. “We just want to get in the fight and keep fighting and send a message that we are not afraid,” Abdullah said.

The Polish government is attacking and defaming a German-Polish Holocaust historian for daring to publish a book documenting the fact that some Polish mayors collaborated with the occupiers during the German occupation of Poland in WWII.

Random accounts are now popping up to argue with me when I talk about the Polish government's attempt to deny any Polish complicity in the murder of Poland's Jews during the Shoah. This really is the new Twitter.

US President Donald Trump’s “Board of Peace” is dominated by Western billionaires and pro-Israel figures tasked with overseeing his 20-point plan for Gaza.

I didn't think it was particularly well-written. It was trite.

Speeches are great but a reminder that what we're getting here in Canada so far is:

* Tax cuts for the wealthy
* Militarization and more surveillance powers
* More oil, less action on climate change.
* Austerity and cuts to the public service
* Deals with authoritarian regimes
