Our newest arrivals. They are called Bonnie and Clyde. 2 nice ladies got them out of this neglect situation. Sadly a 3rd dog died there recently. Hopefully we can turn their lives around 🤞❤️

4 months ago we found this tiny dog… 🗑️ Tied up eating the bins 🪱 Heart worms making him weak and close to death 🎤 All his fur gone apart from his Rod Stewart hairstyle which is why he got his name. He leaves for his forever home in Ballina, Ireland 🇮🇪 very soon ❤️

These street dogs never cease to amaze me. I was sure that Birdie was gone. If you need a huge smile today this will sort you out! Unbelievable scenes!

It still sometimes shocks me how straight up racist the U.S. President is

New inclusive term for an enemy has been declared 'communist jihadists'

Racism-a-go-go at Trump’s Michigan rally tonight: “If Abdul and the Democrats win, they will open the floodgates and invite hordes of jihadists to our shores, creating a nightmare of violence and terror until you cannot even have a Christmas.”

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Man, Hegseth's Department of War is even more buffoonish than everything else. Kinda amazed how the US military didn't just have some basic war plans they could activate. Their lack of preparedness is astonishing. meidasnews.com/news/so-much...

Mark Carney on Elon Musk throttling Starlink: "I search for the right adjective to describe whoever took this decision or group of people took this decision against a country that is literally fighting for the lives of the citizens against naked aggression."

Article: It was at least the fifth collision involving a pedestrian or cyclist in Ottawa since Tuesday. This was Wednesday evening! So it was at least the fifth collision in less than *48 hours*

Some TN counties used BMDs (touchscreen where it marks a paper ballot you then turn in) or DRE/VVPAT (counts straight from the touchscreen but also prints a paper trail). These are inferior to hand-marked optical scan ballots. Touchscreens can be poorly calibrated and have higher error rates.

A woman and two children have been rushed to hospital after they were struck by a driver while crossing a street in Oshawa on Wednesday morning. 🔗

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

C'mon, Keith. *How* did Norway turn its oil reserves into "extraordinary national wealth"? *Public ownership of oil companies *78 per cent profit tax on oil companies *25 per cent sales tax economy-wide so the oil revenues could be saved These are not serious people. #abpoli

Democrats who don't do everything they can to hold Republicans accountable will be driven out of office by the base. Democrats who don't do everything they can to rein in the reckless power of billionaires will likewise be driven out of office by the base.

Noble prize: 'The 2026 #NobelPrize in Literature is awarded to the Canadian author Anne Carson, “for her bold and inventive oeuvre that, in playful dialogue with the classical tradition, has created new forms for contemporary literature.”'

Just ban all frats and sororities already. Many Canadian Universities don't allow them. Frats encourage some of *the worst* behaviour (I remember the all-you-can-drink Keg parties being free or cheap for girls) and they're often protected by the school because their rich families donate $

Most women don't report their rape. Largely because we're embarrased we got ourselves into that situation and know people will judge us and ask a million questions about 'what we did wrong' so they can avoid it. You can't. You can do everything right and it can still happen.
