Rebecca Solnit Says the Left’s Next Hero Is Already Here

@rebeccasolnit.bsky.social: "Sometimes people have to pick sides. You do not get authoritarians to behave better by being meek and gentle and polite. You get it by being strong."

What a moronic idea.

There’s loads of available land and space never mind existing convention centers. Filling in a lake and creating a traffic disaster seems like a really stupid idea.

That's a lot of potential redlining and waste of extant infrastructure to just build MOAR. Imagine all the other things we could have on top of highly efficient bus systems instead.

Also, I find it disturbing that Banff's population is now over 11K people. In 5 years, it in creased 25% in population. Banff can become a city under Alberta law. This is a great representation of what #Banff National Park has become thanks to overtourism. #ableg #cdnpoli #ParksCanada

This is crazy shit right here

@mark-carney.bsky.social forgive my foul language BUT, is the Federal Government going to say something at some point, or are we just going to ride this out?
At what point do we say enough is enough?

Japan is Canada's anchor in the Indo-Pacific In a region that is increasingly defined by uncertainty and rivalry, Canada needs clarity on who its true strategic partners are. That doesn’t mean disengaging from China, but it must be tactical.

Hegseth and Stephen Miller ridiculed "rules of engagement" and vowed this war won't be "politically correct." Now it looks like we may have bombed an elementary school. Hegseth/Miller's certainty that their version of "strength" would have support is imploding. 3/

On this day in 1965, peaceful marchers in Selma, including my friend John Lewis, were beaten by state troopers for demanding the right to vote.
The violence of Bloody Sunday shocked the nation and helped lead to the passage of the Voting Rights Act just months later.

Bimagrumab plus semaglutide alone or in combination for the treatment of obesity: a randomized phase 2 trial - Nature Medicine Bimagrumab is a monoclonal antibody targeting type II activin receptors. In a randomized trial, bimagrumab combined with semaglutide led to up to 17.8 kg weight reduction, surpassing the effects of semaglutide alone (up to 14.2 kg). Notably, the combination preserved lean mass while reducing visceral fat, highlighting its potential for effective obesity management.

A phase 2 clinical trial has demonstrated that bimagrumab, when combined with semaglutide, resulted in significant weight loss for trial participants while maintaining lean muscle mass – suggesting a promising approach for obesity treatment. The findings are published in Nature Medicine. πŸ§ͺ

Pedro SΓ‘nchez’s lone stance against Trump may look risky, but it is cannily pragmatic | Eoghan Gilmartin The Spanish PM’s defiant foreign policy line may seem outspoken. The truth is that he is a sound strategist at home and abroad, says journalist Eoghan Gilmartin

Resisting Trump's crimes can be both a moral and pragmatic political choice.
