Thank you. In all the years I've used social media, I've never been hacked. I guess my time was up. Thank you for drawing my attention to it.

Sheraven @sheraven.bsky.social · Aug 12

Because of this post - and my account blowing up with replies - I discovered I had been hacked. The hacker posted the scam, not me. I have since deleted the post and changed my password.

Europe is on edge as Russia builds up forces on Finland's border. Could this frontier be the next conflict zone?

Finland is "closely monitoring and assessing Russia's activities and intentions."

Stop scrolling. Listen to the expert who literally wrote the book on tyranny. Timothy Snyder warned us: would-be autocrats use chaos, war, & crisis to shock the public into submission.

Reread the end of *On Tyranny.*

Trump’s playbook is not new—but we *can* refuse to play along.

One of the saddest lessons of history is this:

If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle.

We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth.

The bamboozle has captured
us.

Dear Canada, I felt compelled to make something. To stick up for, and to honour. To show our strength, beauty, genius, empathy, light & heart. It's made with deep gratitude for the people and places of this beautiful land. Vive le Canada 🇨🇦❤️✌️💪

While mourning the Pope, thousands of people in Rome went from dead silence to an eruption of cheers when they spotted President Zelenskyy. Ukraine represents bravery, hope and unity in a world under assault by the forces of evil.

In this supposed scandal, the only thing Carney “lied” about was refusing to dignify Trump’s insult with a megaphone – and Canada is better off because of it.

Exactly! Very well worded! I can't believe people are blowing it out of proportion and not seeing it for what it actually is.

Sheraven @sheraven.bsky.social · Apr 26

If Canadians do not want to become the 51st state, they MUST get out & V O T E!

Do NOT be complacent.

Fight for our sovereignty!

Canadians are so used to fear mongering that they need to know all the negative crap Trump spews.
Carney never lied to anyone. Trump is throwing out some election intervention comments and of course the other leaders are falling for it and reporters are using it for political fodder.

You rarely hear a politician speak of the importance of #SocialWork, let alone a Prime Minister. This man gets it! Thank you #PMCarney! ❤️
