I desperately want this scene to be made into a Heritage Moment.
i hold no love for Mark Carney but even I've gotta have sympathy for the dude when I imagine his aide being like "sir, the president thinks you own the whole bridge and you're being mean about it" and him having to put down his copy of The Economist to make the dumbest phone call of all time

Esp so since the bathrobe in this one is a local journalist:
The person photographed here who is in their bathrobe filming armed, masked federal agents in St. Paul is MPR News journalist @samstroozas.bsky.social @mprnews.org . She is an incredible journalist and person. We do not deserve her.
A high-speed car chase involving a federal agent in St. Paul ended with a multi-vehicle crash and injuries to the fleeing driver, who was taken away in an ambulance. bit.ly/4kvJo0M

I still cheat and use a bread machine to do the mixing, and a couple of my friends on here do it consistently (without the bread machine). In the end fresh baked bread is delicious and I never regret doing it :)

Wouldn't it be great if they just took drivers licenses away for breaking this law?
A safety focus makes it sound like there will be wide and strict enforcement.
Driving is a privelage and not a right. We need to get back to acting that way if we want to take community safety seriously.

Gee, Universal Basic Income recoups more than it costs AND the recipients are happier and healthier.
Hmmm. Where have I seen those results before? Oh yes, in every other goddam pilot study of UBI for more than a decade. Ireland joins Finland in at least making a start.

"Every reliable organization measures outcomes to track performance... Without outcome indicators, we can’t know whether care is effective, safe, or sustainable."
Makes you wonder if the for-profit facilities have influenced this.

Pam Bondi is doing everything she can to protect rapists & pedophiles
A woman who holds one of the highest positions in the country is siding with abusers while the victims sit behind her pleading for justice
It’s not incompetence … she’s doing what she was hired to do.

Was on my run/hike without my phone & macrolens. Got home, grabbed them and did it again, but slower. No complaints from SuperDog Rex though.

Every woman who’s experienced sexual assault knows exactly what Pam Bondi is doing.
We’ve heard it before.
The tone. The blame. The gaslighting. The misdirection.
She’s further abusing the victims in order to protect powerful men.
Shame on her and anyone who supports this.

Paper Excellence owner Jackson Wijaya will decline 'invitation' to appear before Canada's parliamentarians - for the 4th time - Halifax Examiner
The committee agreed that if Wijaya does not accept the invitation, they can issue a summons. But that could only be enforced the next time he sets foot on Canadian soil.

Within hours of the shooting, Tara Armstrong, the MLA for Kelowna-Lake Country-Coldstream, wrote on social media that the killings were part of a growing “epidemic of transgender violence” in Western countries.
