Poilievre is getting increasingly deranged. I haven't always likes comparisons between the CPC and MAGA, but their explicitly-stated desires in the past year to politicize judicial appointments and the national police force should deeply disturb us all.

“The PC should be able to act on your behalf.”

the fuck is it with these guys

Some from up in North Wales last summer. Yes, summer

quotes from cybertruck owners

We wanted to know what it was like to own a Cybertruck. So @zoeschiffer.bsky.social went to the desert got this absolutely amazing quotes (and Michelle Groskopf took the pictures!) www.wired.com/story/owning...

The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope identifies and studies nature’s high energy particle accelerators, black holes. Fermi uses these sources to probe important physical parameters of the galaxy and the universe and uses high-energy gamma-rays to search for fundamentally new phenomena.

What would it look like if a black hole devoured a star from the inside? NASA's Fermi space telescope may have spotted the answer: a 7-hour blaze of gamma rays, unlike anything seen before.

When we explore, we discover amazing things. 🧪🔭

The other word for objections to diversity, equity, and inclusion is "racism"

NASA's Europa Clipper launching atop a rocket.

One year ago today, NASA flagship Europa Clipper launched. Today, NASA JPL, which built it, fired another 500 people. (They've lost 25% of workers total.) We're sacrificing scientists and engineers to build concentration camps and gaudy White House ballrooms. NASA is in crisis. America is in crisis.

The response from the speaker of the Canadian parliament better be “LMAO, fuck no!” in both official languages.

The story of the sinking is told in Douglas Howe’s book “Night of the Caribou.” Newfoundland author Cassie Brown, best known for her book “Death on the Ice,” about the Newfoundland sealing disaster, wrote a short story about it.

My grandfather survived the sinking of the SS Caribou. He was one of the survivors, along with the other two PEI Highlanders officers, aboard the MV Caribou for its maiden voyage. I accompanied him on that 1986 trip.

Black and white dramatic seascape. Rocks jut out from the left side of the image with waves crashing against the rugged rocks. The blue of the sea shows the energy of the water

You don’t see the same scene twice and with the weather been so changeable this adds to how special the Isle of Harris is.

Wonderful weekend at BOP in Bristol in the self publishers marquee discussing and selling photobooks. Lovely to be able to show and talk about my new book, fresh from the binders last Friday!At the airport now, flying to Europe for 6 days to start new work, funded by weekend book sales. Thank you!

Who do Canadians regard as an “enemy”? This comes from a new Angus Reid report on India, but get a look at the redder end of that list

(Red = enemy/threat; pink = maybe so)

And the Mi’kmaq and Maliseet (Wolastoqiyik) from this neck of the woods.

George F***ing Springer ladies and gentlemen.

What’s truly offensive is that they don’t care. They honestly don’t give a shit about anyone except themselves.

A cyanotype print of a jackdaw on a hawthorn tree. The image is blue but the branches are black as is the jackdaw in the centre of the image. The tree has white blossom on it.

One great aspect of iconic inflatable costumes (aside from how they instantly undermine propaganda about war zones) is that it's useless to arrest the person wearing one. Cuffing a frog would make law enforcement look pathetic. And carting one off just guarantees that more will show up the next day.
