World leaders need to finally admit that the Trump regime is a global security threat
“Along with distracting from the Epstein files, Trump is doing what nearly every American president has done when their economic policies fail: starting wars for resources.”

It would be a nice nod for Heartstopper to put Francois Arnaud in it’s last season - that way he’d be in all three of the queer healing shows - along with Heated Rivalry and Schitt’s Creek.

Too many of us are asking the wrong question about the Trump-Epstein saga. We keep asking if there is a smoking gun. Instead, we should be asking why so many people in power have done nothing about where smoke has been pouring from for years.

Trump has never been a pacifist. He’s a coward who was, and still is, happy for others to die in war.

@andyrichter.co on CBC’s Day 6 saying “I’d accepted my limitations more so than the possibilities,” really struck a chord. We all fall into that. Whether due to age, illness, disability or any other reality. I was so small after almost dying in 2022. I’m only starting to realize I didn’t die.

The Polytechnique massacre wasn't just a mass shooting — it was a mass femicide. The gunman explicitly targeted women and blamed feminists for the troubles in his life. We must fight like hell to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

“Canada’s left-leaning political parties and politicians must recognize that the only ones holding them back are themselves. There’s now officially no excuse — bold campaigns will win the day. As for Montreal, we can never sit out an election again: just like the rent, the stakes are too damn high.”

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.
The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.
They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.
