Lula's victory in Brazil is a victory for the young (even through he OLD), for the environment, and the Amazon rainforest, and for humanity. Go young people! Gifted article www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The achievement of Serbian students overthrowing Aleksandar Vučić can't be overstated. In 2024, they began protesting. In 2025, they transformed a protest movement into civil dissidence. In 2026, they became a political party — and two months later, crushed a corrupt state-entrenched authoritarian.

Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin ordered a nationwide two-hour extension of voting in today’s presidential runoff, moving the close of polls from 5pm to 7 pm Brasília time.

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Serbia’s strongman leader Aleksandar Vucic has conceded defeat to a student-led movement in a seismic political shift.

For a change from politics, listen to this spot on and at times hilarious take on Hollywood and Method acting. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/c...

Serbia: Polling stations across the country have now closed in today's national parliament elections. There will be no exit polls. Non-governmental organisations will provide a parallel count. #Serbia #Srbija #Izbori2026

Yesterday BC, today Serbia and Brazil! 😬

I’m listening to Doerkson speak right now. He’s probably thinking “holy shit!!!” #bcpoli

Eby is barely holding on to his seat. People are really pissed off at him for the early call. At least @emilylowan.bsky.social got elected. That’s good news. #bcpoli

Well. There goes BC 😳

Obama: "Imagine the power duo of Abdul and Elissa. You got a Muslim man, a Jewish woman, fighting for you in the US senate. That's something, Michigan, you can be proud of!"

I don’t know, man, I’m kind of sick of treating Trump and his cronies like they’re just absurd and laughable and not really spending any time talking about the murders, the concentration camps, the millions starved around the world, people living lives beset with threats of violence and erasure.

Demonstrations in Paris today: 110,000 people, NO violence.

Trump has made more stock trades in his second term than all 535 members of Congress combined.

Interesting read, à change from most coverage: www.wsj.com/world/middle...

Yikes 😢

Latvian officials report that Russia & Belarus are backing criminal gangs to lure migrants via commercial flights to Moscow & Minsk, then forcing them toward forested EU borders. The goal: weaponise migration & destabilise the region.

It's the final debate of the mayoral election, hosted by CP24. The candidates are standing. I repeat: standing. You can watch live here. I'll post a few happenings. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gkge...

Any comment @timescolonist.bsky.social @cheknews.ca ? Why weren’t you reporting on this before the election? www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/va...

Brazilian election: Lula seeks Bolsonaro's disqualification over alleged Meta interference

“The opportunity to stand up to the bully has passed. Too much has been given away with too few consequences.” Exactly right. Doug Ford is weirdly obsessed with certain things in the physical City Of Toronto, his ideas are all bad, and Chow has put up no real resistance. (Bradford is a quisling.)

Ok USians, when did you forget how to protest? Remember the anti-war protests during Vietnam? Now it seems you only know how to put on parades once in a while. What happened?? cc @markruffalo.bsky.social @johncusack.bsky.social @bradleywhitford.bsky.social

I’m so glad the makers of #SlowHorses teased another season. It’s SO GOOD though I was sad to see some of the characters go.

Alberta’s referendum result has raised new questions about the other nine votes, the separatist movement's future and the province's relationship to the rest of Canada. Senior opinion writer Richard Warnica answers your questions, today at 11 a.m.

⬇️⬇️⬇️ #Alberta

Start your day off right! With 78% of votes counted, Alberta is definitely staying in Canada! The other questions though? They're still all pretty much neck and neck... #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Clip n save.

Phenomenal investigative reporting by the @nytimes.com. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/19/w...

Is 2026 the 1968 of this century? It feels like it to me. Though not enough active protests in the US.

Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

I don’t understand enough about this, but it somehow feels like 3D chess to me. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

Nailed it! @22-minutes.bsky.social on Zacharia. www.instagram.com/reel/Dek2C5z...

Zelensky is asked if Trump is scapegoating him because the USA is in such deep shit back home due to the disastrous Iran War. Watch Ze's response.

Vendredi, Jordan Bardella a essuyé quelques huées et interpellations sur ses écrits antisémites lors de son déplacement dans les allées du Mondial de l’auto. Il a esquivé l’intégralité des questions qui lui ont été posées par la presse à ce sujet.

She beat Scaramucci!! Bravo! 😂 www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...
