She/her. Biographies are never a true reflection of self. I have many interests, which is only confusing if you can't hold more than one thought at a time. Undercover redhead. 🇨🇦
"I'M THE ONE WHO GRIPPED YOU TIGHT AND RAISED YOU FROM PERDITION". One of the best lines in Supernatural.

Worth remembering that this is supposed to be a civil, non-punitive form of detention, and that this legal fiction is what allows it to happen without criminal trials
I just can’t stop thinking abt federal agents raiding the cells of incarcerated children to confiscate their drawings & letters. This is Nazi shit.
ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

We could disband all of the political parties tomorrow and pretty shortly after, even declarations of "no political parties", ypu would still have factions forming and eventually political parties. Floor crossing is just a part of that and the system. It can evoke strong feelings but it's the system
February 19, 2026 at 1:18 AM
I don't care about floor crossing as much as others people do, mainly because thats just how the system works when it has people. Like, generlaly pwople do shit. Political parties are also not necessary for our system to run per se, it's just an effective organizing method.

I understand all the arguments against floor-crossing and am familiar with all the research on how voters think about their votes and I do think there's some risk that a government could appear cynical in gaining a majority via floor-crossing.

But I also tend to come back to a few things.

One thing I'm getting from rooting around in early postwar periodicals is that middlebrow culture was good, actually and we're impoverished for its demise.

The Press Secretary confirms: Donald Trump posted the racist video of the Obamas.
Q: The president just said on Truth Social it would be a 'big mistake' for UK to hold over control of Diego Garcia, but the State Dept said the US supports that handover

LEAVITT: The post should be taken as administration policy. When you see it on TS, you know it's directly from President Trump.

BRONZE FOR CANADA 🇨🇦

Courtney Sarault, Kim Boutin, Florence Brunelle and Danae Blais skate relay bronze.

It’s a historic medal for Sarault, as she becomes the first woman from Canada to win four short track medals at a single Olympics.

Poilievre was always a weasel and it really doesn't surprise me he's losing MPs, but the number is still fairly high in a short enough time span.

The Liberals have gotten another floor-crosser from Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives, Mark Carney announces over on the other site. Matt Jeneroux changes sides

Dpug Ford doesn't have a degree or a diploma, if he took "basket weaving" in college he would have been a drop out from that diploma himself. He's a loser given the easy way of life and screwing up this province because he's an out-of-touch wealthy (stupid) man.

Every leftist concerned with Cuba right now really ought to keep in mind Kamala Harris would neither have kidnapped Maduro nor be throttling Cuba to death right now, were she President.

If you abstained because she "wasn't perfect", congratulations. You should've thought of this before not voting.

There is a normalization of harm, one out of three women and 1 out of 6 men have experienced sexual violence (numbers vary but generally similar) and those crimes go underreported. Society has a rape culture that normalizes sexual violence. People still get more angry at survivors than perpetrators

People often comment how people were laughing about the human trafficking and sexual vioelnce in the Epstein files (mainly people invovled in the Epstein files), as if people don't laugh about sexual vioelnce survivors or IPV survivors regularly. The culture isn't that great at supporting survivors.

The majority of offenders are men.

"The National Crime Agency said the growth in offending across the UK was driven by technology and linked to the radicalisation of offenders in online forums, encouraging people to view images of child sexual abuse by reassuring them it was normal."
