Is @eqbankofficial.bsky.social down on web and mobile? Can’t get into my account on either due to ‘technical difficulties’

My god the internet has been shittier than usual in the last 48hrs

Amoungst all the chaos in the states - that’s comforting to hear. Truly hope it’s a turning point now and longterm.

Also, James Talarico - haven’t heard of him but if he’s looped in with Mamdani & Platner I will need to give his policies a look over. Thanks!

🌸 Nat 🌸 @natnatratatat.bsky.social · 6d

Really liking this guy Graham Platner in the USA. Seems there’s some solid people starting to emerge in the states (prime example: Mamdani) and I have some hope that it continues like this.

Graham Platner, candidat for US Senate from Maine, on current elected officials: "If you can't get done what you want in 18-24 years, maybe give somebody else a try."

Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine.bsky.social · 8d

One day. Five hundred miles. Three town halls in small town Maine. Four hundred people.

We will leave no person and no place behind.

Canada is our country.

We should NOT be entertaining the idea of becoming the 51st state. Full stop.

You don't sit around discussing the benefits of surrendering to an aggressor and call it a "worthwhile discussion to have."

Good - someone should call her out more often and with intensity

The Breakdown AB @thebreakdownab.bsky.social · 7d

B.C. Premier David Eby is clearly beyond frustrated with Danielle Smith's pipeline dreams threatening the B.C. economy.

In a fiery statement, he called her out directly stating...

"This is not the Danielle Smith show!"

On Wednesday, Ken Sim will direct staff to make brutal cuts to the City's budget - putting the services you and I rely on at risk.

We need to stand up to him.

I also recommend Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive and well, the deep web of course. Print your own books and bind them if you want a physical copy and can’t obtain a copy otherwise! (That’s what I do)

Today the mayor of Vancouver called me an antisemitic terrorist supporter. Here is my speech:

This isn’t controversial
Being against what the UN calls a genocide is not controversial
Being against apartheid is not controversial

More context…
All of Vancouver (greater metro vancouver) has a population of 3.1 million. So circa 500,000 LESS than Trump supporters.

🌸 Nat 🌸 @natnatratatat.bsky.social · 7d

Well, this is an unfun fact to learn.

- 8,086,051 people, voted Conservative in 2025 during the Canadian Federal Election.
- 45% of Canadian Conservative voters support Trump.

3,638,722 PEOPLE IN CANADA ARE MAPLE MAGAS (basically)

Wtf.
