I wish all the Nova Scotians complaining about government overreach because they can’t go into the woods displayed this energy when Carney gave law enforcement sweeping powers to access their personal information.

on the one hand its possible some sort of as yet not long obvious β€œevidence” could emerge that would undo Trump, sure, but you have to way that against the principle ultimately at stake here, IE elite impunity no matter what, and so…..

nobody is talking about this but what if the most important thing is the story of people who cosigned a genocide and ignored its victims finally deciding, years into it, that it might have been genocide after all, and what that all means for their feelings

music and drawing are two of the first things that humans did once we had the free time to do what we wanted to do

how does making a machine to replace that not activate some intense instinctual disgust reaction in u?

The end of history is looking markedly different in 2025 compared to 1992.

Nothing about everything. But fortunately, the really important is impermanence and that seems to be doing fine?

Yesterday was the 50th anniversary of artist Bas Jan Ader setting sail from Cape Cod aboard the pocket cruiser 'Ocean Wave.' Lost at sea, aged 33.

Now that Trump has been elected, everyone is using this so-called economic emergency as cover to rush to further development in all the worst industries. The economic reckoning of living on a rapidly collapsing planet are going to come as a real shock. Burn, baby, burn.

The Self-Fashioning of the Black Dandy The Met’s exhibition expands Black fashion history by centering ordinary individuals and their dress practices.

Importantly, β€œSuperfine” marks the first time in the Met Costume Institute’s history that it explicitly engages race, and the first in over 20 years to focus on menswear.

As always, a great way to get Canadians to settle for something terrible is to gesture south and say,”Hey, we’re not THAT.”

You see all these tech companies moving into military applications and…there’s a reason. Should have paid heed when scientists told us to address climate/ecological issues. Instead, we’ll further drain the planet with war over what remains.

Also: while it may be extremely profitable for some, it comes at an ecological cost the planet can ill afford.

Why is this not even a conversation in Canada? For example, what’s the health cost of massive, annual wildfires?

Some say the rental market in Nova Scotia is improving but a problem that stops getting worse isn't the same as a problem solved. β€œA significant portion of the population now just simply cannot afford housing at current prices,” says Neil Lovitt, real estate consultant.

Exactly. The insurance industry can’t absorb constant disasters forever. Massive annual wildfires, hurricanes, rising sea levels, crop failures…idk, apparently, everyone thinks it will affect someone else, somewhere else.

Yeah, seems like there are some parts of Canada that might want to pay attention to this sort of thing…

In fact, you need to say: THIS IS THE BEST SONG SINCE FROST CHILDREN’S β€œCONTROL” (which was 13 days ago). They’ll be so flummoxed by anyone over 30 knowing Frost Children, they’ll expire on the spot.
