Asking for a boost from all friends, supporters, even haters.

The most important question is always 'Why?'

Why Game Over Network?

Buckle in, I’m laying it on the line here, so come on a journey with me. During the Montreal Canadiens’ Cinderella run to the Stanley Cup Final during the pandemic playoffs of 2021, with so few fans a...

No such thing as a good billionaire.

No such thing as earning a billion dollars.

You cannot amass that much wealth without exploitation. Even if you did, holding it while others starve makes you evil. There’s no way around it.

For years, San Franciscans considered him the rare big-hearted billionaire. But days before his Dreamforce conference begins, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff said he would support President Trump sending the National Guard to SF and that Trump is doing “a great job.”

They can decide that, they should get no thanks for it. They owe humanity a serious debt. A lot of people will die because of people like Rogan.

Maybe that’s why Albertans still hate Trudeau. Sure, the oil industry has never made more profit, but he called the pipeline trans.

Dawn Farrell, the former CEO of Trans Mountain who now leads the federal government's Major Projects Office was asked whether the oil pipeline contributes to the fight against climate change.

“The answer is yes,” she replied.

They have 5 years before they have to actually add money in, and they’ll he out of office by then.

There appears to be some food. Part of the program is about the food that IS available being “healthy”, so purchasable food is healthier. No more chips and pop. That’s not exactly “providing” food.

Andrew Berkshire @berkshire.bsky.social · 12h

RIGHT??? I’ve spent literally hours going through it, and the majority of it appears to be educating about healthy eating using the food pyramid, which is utter bullshit built by lobbying groups anyway.

They announce the vague intention to expand it, yes. No details though. Liberals always announce they’re going to expand things “later”.

Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

Liberal partisans are pushing the insinuation that the Canada School Food Program is a universal school lunch program. It’s not. Not even close. There are groups lobbying to advance to that, but that is not at all what the program is.

There’s so much misinfo from Carney stans, it’s unreal.

Seeing Ms. Rachel say exactly what needs to be said to Obama is so damn refreshing

Dear President Obama,
I saw in your statement you said "Israeli families" & "the people of Gaza."
Palestinians have families, too.
This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide.
I've sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world.
Love,
Ms Rachel

I think that's part of it but the other part is it's men -and in this case especially rich men - and they already don't do those tasks, so they don't see them. This is why we're getting Samsung TV's with ads and not fridges that remind us to eat the lettuce before it spoils

James S. Pumpkins @jspumpkins.bsky.social · 14h

This is the tell that they don't want people with creative capacity. They want menials and drones that they can use extract wealth from their lives and labors, then discard before the next quarterly report.

The actual cruel burden is the point.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · 15h

it’s said all the time but I think we should continue to hammer home how insane it is that we got dead-eyed bros trying to sell us robots that will free us from the supposedly cruel burden of “creative careers” instead of the actual cruel burden of “doing menial household chores”

Judgement that should again disqualify from power. It’s hard to fathom that there wasn’t more pushback

Absolutely. Figureheads they may be, but they get a big pay bump and a lot of influence on policy. Having someone proven untrustworthy and unethical in that position is wild.
