@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: "The reason that corruption is breaking through right now is people are suffering economically. And so, with all of Trump's focus on his ballroom, on the reflecting pool—voters are frustrated that he is not focused on them."

Republicans must have made a bundle off of Trump because Mikey is completely blind to how his cuts, staying home and the big beautiful bill has affected the wallets of Americans. For that reason they deserve to lose #Midterms VOTE NOW 🗳️🌊 www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

ROBERT REDFORD & NATALIE WOOD first met at High School. Their paths crossed again 10yrs later when he was a rising star on Broadway. As a result she had him cast in ‘Inside Daisy Clover’, they worked together on 2 more Films and remained close friends until Wood’s tragic death in 1981.

Like many others I assumed this was funny hyperbole -- "call in the national guard!" type of thing -- but no it's a description of events.

They called the cops on this 3-year-old Black boy because he was kickin the white kids' ass on the soccer field.

I think the election was more about people that previously voted NDP not voting this time rather than people voting for the BC Conservatives. bsky.app/profile/prod...

Voter turnout was lower. With 99.57% of the votes counted, both the BC Cons (~49,895 less) & BC NDP (~274,678 less) had fewer votes compared to last election, but the BC Greens (~23,216 more) picked up votes. Voter apathy is what elected Conservatives.

We need politics that fights for all of creation, all the beauty and wonder of here. We are blessed to live in a temperate rainforest, and I sure hope that voters in Brazil, home to a miraculous tropical rainforest, make a better choice than we just did.

...breaking into garages and homes. Tearing doors off. Why? Because in southern BC, the salmon aren’t in the streams. Why? Because water levels are too low. Why? Weak snowpack and not enough rain. Why? We all know why.

But I live in BC and I love these unsurrendered Indigenous lands and waters, as all of my readers know. So allow me to share the kind of fact that rarely makes it into politics: the bears here are really hungry. Black bears and grizzlies are acting strangely and aggressively...

Like so many of my neighbours I am heartbroken today. I am also angry. I could say much more but since Avi became leader of the Federal NDP, posting about Canadian electoral politics has become a little complicated for me. I never want what I say to be used against him since I speak only for myself.

🧵Yesterday, British Columbia elected a Conservative majority government that ran on a platform of tax cuts and accelerating the pillaging of nature, or what the party calls “natural resources exploitation.” They also ran on attacking Indigenous sovereignty and trans rights.

BREAKING: Trump launches new plan to prepare every major US military base to operate for at least 90 days without outside electricity, fuel, water or supplies, anticipating a major war that could cripple power grids, break global supply chains & threaten critical infrastructure on US soil… WHY?! 😎✨

I keep seeing posts from Republicans pretending to be insulted by Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory quip because most Americans supposedly think it serves haute cuisine. First, it does not. And you know that. Second, his remark wasn't about the food. It was about the over-the-top golden decor.
