Hello! I am a friendly, progressive, secular Canadian. 😀👋✌️

My focus is Canadian/US politics, but humour and animal related posts are a welcome balance.

I'm an avid reader, a fan of black & white movies, and a music lover. It's always a pleasure to meet like-minded folks!

Nuclear physicist Fay Ajzenberg-Selove was born #OTD in 1926. She authored decades of authoritative compilations on light nuclei energy levels (researchers' "nuclear bible"). Recipient, National Medal of Science (US 2007) for advancing nuclear #physics. Advocate for #WomenInScience.

A black-and-white portrait photograph of pioneering nuclear physicist Fay Ajzenberg-Selove, taken in her later career years. She is seated in a cozy, book-lined study or office, surrounded by shelves of books and framed photos on the wall behind her. She has short, neatly styled graying hair and warm, intelligent eyes, wears large, round-framed glasses that accentuate her thoughtful gaze. She has a gentle, knowing smile and is dressed in a patterned blouse or dress with a polka-dot or textured dark fabric, a small brooch or pin on her collar, and a simple necklace. Her hands rest calmly in front of her as she sits slightly turned toward the camera, exuding quiet confidence, resilience, and intellectual depth. The setting highlights her lifelong dedication to science, from her groundbreaking work on light nuclei spectroscopy to her influential compilations of nuclear data, and her advocacy for women in physics despite facing significant gender barriers in academia. The image captures her as a trailblazing figure who received the National Medal of Science in 2007 and left an enduring legacy in #nuclearphysics.

The "Insider Knowledge" Weapon
The best defense attorney is often a former prosecutor. Pam Bondi is using her knowledge of prosecutorial weaknesses to dismantle cases. She knows how to mess up a chain of custody how testimony can be made to look coached or unreliable under cross-examination.

“Fascism is the hyper-charging of a reactionary cocktail of ideas – nationalism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, authoritarianism, militarism – so as to create an active political force opposed to progressive movements and radical change.”

UPDATE: The 21 year old who has been posting “chilling” white supremacist messaging on Trump’s official Department of Labor feeds was finally fired.

JUST KIDDING! DHS hired him.

(P.S. They’ve been doing it too)
