I was able to return to school and rebuild my life after divorce because student loan funding was restored after Ontario tried to make single parents ineligible back in the late 80s. Ford must to allow students to access meaningful futures. Restore OSAP funding. c.org/XTmN9x5hVN
History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.
Wow.
Big time. The MAGA GOP narrative is some racist, gaslighting, criminal bullshit.
If you think about it, the very best books are really just extremely long spells that turn you into a different person for the rest of your life
Was delighted to see @samstroozas.bsky.social so dedicated to her profession that she didn’t give a hoot what anyone would think about how she was dressed. She just gave it what was crucial at that moment: on the spot reporting. Love this energy!

Stephen Lecce says Darlington was “on budget & ahead of schedule.” OPG’s own filings say it’s at least 25% over budget and needs 6 more years. The truth matters. share.nwmd.social/s/4Tbr6Bay
The IESO just struck out ⚾ ❌ — doubling down on polluting gas & overpriced nuclear instead of clean, affordable renewables.
Toronto can do better.
Tell City Council: go #renewable NOW! 🌞 🌬️

Every American should go. Next week. Or as soon as possible. Y'all need a little happy!
When they start writing folk songs about it... 👀🎶👇🏾
We used to travel to the States regularly. Every summer, we were at Chautauqua Institution for a week. @chq1874.bsky.social. Often spent weeks on Sanibel Island. Now, we're seeing our own country. Canadians are not interested in fascism. We grieve for you, but we won't visit you.
Hey there, Bluesky. Have learned much here & hope I offered some support & insights in our time together. A recent interaction alerted me to the toll it's been taking & I've decided to leave y'all to it. You'll be in my heart, which, damaged as it is, will find gentler ways to engage. ❤️
Well, I think I do understand it. The purpose was to present both sides and news outlets did that. Ripping it up allowed for the creation of news outlets like Fox which are ideologically based. If I am wrong, enlighten me. Don't just high horse me.
Maybe news outlets could divvy up months or weeks, even, so those engaging don't burned alive. It is hell in there. Coordination is a good word.
It is an interesting question. Most of the far-right, I think, get their info and daily hate online from Fox and X and TruthBullshit. @rawstory.com just left X and most fact-based reporting outlets have too. That echo chamber needs to be breached but I sure don't have the stomach for it.
No. This started with the killing of the Fairness Doctrine fifty years ago, the purpose of which was to ensure viewers got a balance of viewpoints. It was Reagan who did it, and the Republicans knew exactly what they were doing. The game is always a long one.
I am so so so sorry that this happened to Kady and that this kind of criminal activity is being activated by the hateful practices and privileges of those who call themselves Christian. Fundamentalist religion is, and always has been, the arbiter of hate.
And if three Dems hadn't died on the job, the bill, itself, would have died on the floor. What are Democrats doing to ensure a robust team throughout the rest of 47's term?
Obviously, she wasn't invited and didn't bother to watch the video. It was appalling.
Wow. An unbelievable level of greed grounded in the pain and suffering of others. Brutal.
What are the age demographics in those ** stats? Older white men and younger white men may vote totally differently. Wish we could do stats based on social media feed usage. Sigh.
No. It is because they are a market demographic that feels pain and is easily medicated by toxic media.
Canada saw a record rise in young male voters in last election, most of them voting for our Trump-mini-me. It's indifference to truth in media they consume. Joe Rogan style podcasters & others who get extremely wealthy telling underperforming young men their pain is the fault of liberals & women.
In some states, the right of a woman to determine what happens when she becomes pregnant now extends to what happens if she dies while pregnant. Any previous medical or end-of-life directives are mooted by her pregancy.
Would someone please post this to X and Truth Social?
