Yeah those are great. Looking forward to your build if you’re sharing it here. Bonne route!

Hell yeah. I always get curbside pickup with a big rubbermaid tote on the front of my bike. So while I’m shopping on the app I have to visualize how much room it’s going to take because it’s high stakes if it doesn’t all fit. What a rush

Carney is proposing Canadian peacekeepers in Gaza.
We've had troops Mounties CBSA and other Canadian officials under US command helping Israel maintain its occupation of the West Bank for years.
Any 'peacekeeping' mission in Gaza would likely be an extension of this model

Re: Young Republicans celebrating fascism and Hitler.
I'm sorry to burst the bubble of those yearning for a better time but since WWII the US has been the tip of the spear for fascism. They were essentially the Nazis in Korea and Vietnam.

The key thing here though is that these questions aren't going away, and they're not being asked by ultra left wing podcasters. They're being asked by Obama alumni and wine moms.

Folks we need your help! We need a huge push on this new letter to city council to tell them NOT to contract out our water & sewer workers work tomorrow. It doesn’t matter where you are in Canada, this is a DIRECT attack on collective bargaining. You do not need to be in CUPE to sign. Please share!!

Take Action: The City Council of Charlottetown must withdraw or vote down the tenders targeting the work of CUPE Local 830.

The City of Charlottetown’s Water and Sewer workers have been on strike for over 70 days. They have been pushed to strike to defend job security, fair wages and respectful negotiations.

Your Nationalism is not Antifa.

Winston Churchill was not Antifa.
General Patton was not Antifa.
Your favorite Nationalist was not Antifa.
That’s literally the point.

The IDF itself has admitted 20,000 casualties (all causes). Grossly out of proportion to civilian casualties inflicted but nevertheless massive.

This wasn't a bloody nose. The establishment strength of the IDF is around 600,000 including reservists. They got mauled with fuck all to show for it.

Ian @ianagp.bsky.social · 1d

Worth remembering that Israel and the IDF failed at everything they attempted post 7/10/23

Occupation of Gaza
Occupation of Southern Lebanon
Destruction of Hamas
Destruction of Hezbollah
Destruction of Ansarsllah
Destruction of the Iranian nuclear program

All spectacular failures by any measure.

Al Jazeera is doing videos of the Palestinian releases and they're heart wrenching. One man was detained for over a year and was released to find out that Israel had killed his two kids. The youngest was three. Her birthday would've been on Saturday. He'd made a small bracelet for her in prison.

BREAKING: In a new violation of the ceasefire agreement, two Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting the Shujaiyya neighborhood in eastern Gaza City.

A bold red “BREAKING NEWS” graphic with large white capital letters centered on a red background featuring a faint world map and circular motion lines, evoking an urgent broadcast alert.
