Oregon just passed laws to protect beavers — but only because they “benefit humans.” As soon as they start doing beaver things that benefit beavers, they’re killed. We will never see ourselves as part of nature. #RacingToExtinction

BC has billions in shovel-ready projects ready to go.

Instead of real jobs for our province, the BC Conservatives are standing up for themselves, infighting and Alberta politics.

We’ll continue to ignore the noise and deliver for this province and country.

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song.

But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

It truly is the dumbest fucking cult in history. And that's saying a LOT, since there was one that committed suicide because they were convinced the mothership was showing up to whisk them away to nirvana...

We can’t prevent violence against women and children without tackling men’s heavy alcohol use.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House.

Not a single offer.

Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

Everyone should learn about Gisele Pelicot & how her case was a stunning example of why women are done hearing “not all men”.

Everyone failed her.

Her own husband drugged her & arranged for her to be abused.

Her doctors ignored her medical complaints.

Misogyny & patriarchy destroyed her life:

Gisele Pelicot, Medical Misogyny and How Disabled People Face Increased Risk of Abuse

Most of us have heard Gisele's story. It's a reminder that even men you trust can harm you. Did you know that she went to her doctors for help? A look at how medical misogyny contributed to her abuse.
