1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

This is 100% right. We need nation building that doesn’t focus on enriching the oligarchy, but rather targets meaningful sustainability in terms of climate, biodiversity, & fulfilling jobs for people of all abilities. We must stop subsidizing dairy & beef, & start investing in transit & cycling.

We're preparing a report on the impact of the Conservative victory on BC First Nations (for knowledgekeepr.com). There are a lot of flashpoints for conflict with their policies. But it still seems manageable. UNTIL... you show the traditional territories of those nations. 1

The ruling, issued by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, stems from an inquiry into Mr. Bolsonaro’s links to a Brazilian lawyer who is accused of laundering more than $1 billion through a vast fraud scheme, according to a court document reviewed by The New York Times.

You know, this was actually too close. BB was what? 8th last time around? Just the fact that he managed to convince almost 400K people that he is a viable alternative is damn grim, imho. Then again - Rob Ford actually won, so maybe my point is moot.

Environment and Climate Change Canada using tax dollars to promote fossil fuel expansion, such as that depicted in this sponsored ad, is full throttle sociopathic. It's like Health Canada choosing to actively promote putting rat poison in your lunch.

People act like Elon posts things like this as if he doesn’t know it’s a straight up lie. He is posting propaganda. He is part of the new Reich. He is part of the propaganda machine. He knows the Nazis were right wing fascists who imprisoned leftists in camps.

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Carney is the Shock Doctrine in an expensive suit, & "the world's a dangerous place" is his thought terminating cliché. Therefore, according to Carneyism, we can't afford a liveable climate, or human rights, or privacy, or public goods, or anything but absolute surrender to oligarchs on all fronts.

Never forget that when Seoul, Korea removed the Cheonggyecheon expressway in 2003 and replaced it with a restored stream, 1000 acre park and improved public transit, not only did it TRANSFORM the city’s public life and economic success, but the car traffic got better. The car traffic got BETTER.

Our First Nations traditional territory maps are progressing. We're likely a week away from completing our alpha build. This will replace the Native-Land.ca territory maps, which went offline earlier this year (though they have other maps still online). It'll go online at knowledgekeepr.com

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

Flávio Bolsonaro refuses to concede Brazil's presidential election and will ask for the result to be annulled: "It is impossible to recognise the election results... We are going to ask for the annulment of these elections!"

With 83% of the vote counted nationwide, Lula has stretched his lead to 2.8 million votes. That's a lead of 51.4% to 48.6%. That puts him on track for a victory that could be larger than his 1.8% win four years ago, which would be an immense comeback. He's even up in Minas Gervais now, by 0.6%.

Parse out the voters that didn't actually want to separate but wanted to "send a message to Ottawa™️" & the official #Separatism vote number might at best hit 10%. For the record a larger percentage of Americans believe in FAIRIES than Albertans that legitimately want to separate from Canada #abpoli

I’m just an oatmeal socialist girl, standing in front of the Alberta NDP, asking them to campaign on more than “but the conservatives are worse” platform in the next election.

The IDU is an international syndicate for far-right authoritarians, and Canada’s Conservative Party is actively aligned with it. Keeping membership in this organization is a direct betrayal of democratic values. An editorial by @taylornoakes.com.

seeing as I’m apparently a predictions genius, I wrote a longer tweet about the BC Election on Substack - and what we’ll see for First Nations affairs: substack.com/@rjjago/note...

Completely uninformed guess for BC election - relatively close match between Cons and NDP in popular vote, but a big green turnout, maybe 12%+ resulting in: 63 Conservative 2 Green 28 NDP

Art Spiegelman using AI because - in his own words - he felt too lazy to create something new using his own skills. I don’t think I can even process that. (Below: Self-Portrait with Maus Mask, by Art Spiegelman, 1989.)

Tonight David Eby is going to resign, and then hand the province over to a group dedicated to screwing over First Nations. So seriously, f*ck him, his ego and greed for doing this, and wasting all our time for the next 4 years, fighting them.
