“The government cannot indefinitely subsidise an educational ecosystem that leaves large cohorts unequipped for modern employment, while simultaneously demanding more soldiers for an expanding occupation.”

“The broader lesson of recent weeks is that Israel’s delicate compromise between religion and state is cracking under the combined pressures of demographics, war and economic realities.”

Today, common people from Penha entered the woods on one side of the mountain. The region is called Pedreira, as it is an inactive quarry.

They found 60+ dead bodies. Some with clear marks of torture. A beheaded young male. Most shot in the back and in the head.

The total count is between 121-128+

Report from 🇨🇦: Not in Ontario, but when I moved to British Columbia I was astonished to see people including young children holding humongous open fiery lanterns on a packed street full of flammable cars around Halloween (but I think it was more of a Diwali thing)

I think most billionaires are going to say "OK, I had a great deal from 1980 to 2028, but now it's back to business as usual, and I should be paying a 70% marginal income tax rate."

Western media has had a blackout on both Congo & Sudan, & people there have had less access to social media, this is the primary reason why genocides there have not been discussed by Westerners.

My knee problems, which are identical to my dad’s, started when I was 12 and raised on a SUPER healthy diet bc my mom was a dietitian. Healthy food IS beneficial but it simply doesn’t resolve everyone’s musculoskeletal issues; that’s some weird magical thinking.

Yup. Transfers are killers in most systems. Unless you KNOW buses are coming every 5 min they introduce too much uncertainty, and exposure to the weather.

I was just talking about this issue with my sister, who needs an hour and 2 buses to get to Cambridge rn.

Ugh, 43 and hard same to all of that. I have sacrificed countless tedious hours to physio just so I can minimize—not eliminate— the pain caused by a gentle walk, thanks to my garbage bones. 🦴💀

Mainstream outlets are facing scrutiny for their evasive coverage of Israel bombing 30 sites in Gaza on Tuesday, another violation of the ceasefire agreement.

It’s “an epic failure of both journalistic and moral principles,” according to one professor. Reporting by @rdassaly.bsky.social.

This would go a long way to explaining why we have not seen so-called Canada condemn any of the American extrajudicial murders of Venezuelan, and Colombian, citizens.

It is deeply concerning that Washington is contemplating war with Venezuela despite the absence of any evidence linking its leader to the drug trade. Canada must take immediate steps to ensure that its technologies and policies do not make it complicit in another unlawful US military campaign.

Is Canada complicit in Trump’s illegal war in Venezuela?

The Trump administration’s covert bombing campaign against alleged Venezuelan “narco-terrorists” has drawn scrutiny from legal experts and human rights observers. As evidence of cartel ties remains un...

Among a lot of other things, obviously, treating campaign staff like this a hard no for me.

Not just my professional background but it speaks directly to how a candidate sees labor / management.

Graham Platner’s campaign thought they could silence me by offering me money and calling me a liar in the press.

I was going to let it go.

It has become increasingly clear they are unfamiliar with Maine women.

That United States spends months worsening climate change by sending carbon emitting bombs to be dropped from carbon emitting fighter jets in a genocide against Palestine, and then the climate effects are felt first and most by Black people in Jamaica and Haiti.

It's all connected. I hate it.

Yes, that’s my understanding as well, which would make her his first cousin once removed. But the point still stands for more distant familial relations.

I can’t speak to conservative Mennonites, but I can assure you that plenty of us who are visually indistinguishable from the general population are huge, weird genealogy nerds who can confidently describe distant familial relationships most humans will never contemplate.
