Hasan is so close to making rent this month. Please help if you can.
Dear friends, I never imagined I would reach this level of pressure…😓🥹
We’re now only £224 short of completing this month’s rent.

Please help me secure the place that protects my family —
so their tomorrow can be a little less frightening, and a little more peaceful. Thank you.🧡

"Every lockdown drill is a confession of failure. Every barricaded classroom is an indictment. Every child taught to hide is proof that the adults in charge have surrendered."
What Are We Doing to Our Children?
We taught kids to read, write, and dream; then trained them to hide, barricade, and bleed quietly while adults chose guns, cowardice, and silence over their future.

What an absolutely disastrous interview for Poilievre on CBC this morning.

Just when we think he can’t possibly look any less capable of managing his own caucus - let alone a nation - he succeeds in looking like a file boy with some big opinions.

I just want an effective opposition, FFS.

This is, by far, the best, most accurate and extremely well argued analysis of the power of Danielle Smith's communications style that I have read. This deserves to be widely distributed and as Markham notes, the Alberta NDP should take note.

I am all for using Canadian English.
I am always correcting dictionaries etc on my computers.
I wrote countless papers using correct Canadian English, distinct from British and American. We're so easygoing, most people accept multiple spellings, but don't be fooled—Canadian English borrows heavily in order to create some of the nicest, yet sharp and subtle, language I've seen.
Canadian English supporters urge Carney to abandon federal shift to British spelling
Promoters of Canadian English say the federal government is sending the wrong message to the world with its recent use of British spelling in official documents.

Smith finally said it out loud...
She doesn't believe that government should be providing any services to Albertans, she believes that private companies should be used universally to provide services.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights—the most translated document in the world—was drafted by a Canadian, John Humphrey. When the world needed a moral compass after WW2, a Canadian provided the blueprint. 🇨🇦

PP just does not get it. In his eyes two of his MPs going to the Liberals is everyone's fault except for him.

He just doesn't get the fact that everyone hates him because he's a malignant narcissist, liar, angry, loathsome, disgusting, detestable and hateful person.

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

🇨🇦Canadians🇨🇦 If you want to keep your universal healthcare, don’t vote for Conservative candidates, federally or provincially. Personally, I would like the Feds to do something to rein in what’s happening in Ont, QC and Alta re: trying to privatize everything that they can.
If folks are complaining about the cost of living now, wait til their insurance premiums skyrocket. Last week, my employer-connected insurance, FloridaBlue, which I pay $1500 for every month, just denied a doctor-prescribed medicine that I have been using for 20 years! WTAF. It's a level 1 generic!

He, & all other predators & enablers deserve consequences.

What an eye-opener this is. I’m sure many Americans are unaware of this glaring disparity.
Clearly it’s the guns, in the hands of angry people who should not have access to so many guns.
Only in America!

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

I remember living in Holland and having to correct the American tourists when they would inevitably say that they single handedly saved Europe from Hitlers army. They didn't believe me that it was the Canadians, including my grandpa, that liberated Holland.
