Middle age men of Bluesky (or those who are in relationships with women of similar age): if you want to understand why your partner feels shitty much of the time, seek out Small Achievable Goals on CBC Gem. I’ll bet @drjengunter.bsky.social agrees.

Listening to talking heads on the CBC discuss the Grammys and they were discussing about some guy called Kenny Swimmer or something and how he rewrote lyrics to a song that he’d already recorded and just used AI to change the words after the fact because re-recording the vocals would take too long 🤮

European governments are beginning to respond to warnings about the possibility of a war with Russia. But few of the continent’s western countries have anything comparable to the war readiness of the Nordics, Baltics and Poland
Europe’s generals are warning people to prepare for war
But western European societies are in denial

“Doctors won’t tell you this, but you don’t need medication for a tapeworm—all you need is the natural power of friction,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said as he dropped to the floor, lifted his legs high, and dragged his ass along the White House carpet during a press conference.

When professional journalists are obviously fed up with your lying, it’s time to admit you have a problem
Poilievre just told #CP26 "There's never been a referendum crisis or a national unity crisis when Conservatives have been in power It's an interesting coincidence isn't it" False. BQ was the product of Mulroney's time in office. Borden - WWI conscription crisis. Sir John - Louis Riel. C'mon man.

Reading Arno's piece this morning, it occurred to me how unsettlingly disconnected from even a generous interpretation of the truth many Conservative supporters have become. I don't mean that in the partisan kind of way; it's genuinely distressing to see people fleeing from shared reality.
CNO's @arnokopecky.bsky.social is on the ground at the Conservative Party convention in Calgary. And although he was barred from entering, he has been hanging out with the delegates and influencers crowding outside. They have had a lot to say — and a lot more than what's been happening onstage.
The sad predictability of the CPC Convention
None of what Arno Kopecky saw from Conservatives speaking on the first night of the party's Calgary convention was any more surprising than the strange disconnect from reality he encountered among att...
