Ronald Reagan ignored the AIDS crisis—and his “dear friend” from Hollywood, Rock Hudson, who asked for help. Dr. Fauci jumped in and helped. Guess which guy the homophobic ghouls in the Republican Party revere today.

Did d he say anything worthwhile there? I admit, he bores TF out of me so I usually drift off on the 2nd or 3rd word. I didn’t rear anything about his plans, just more of his usual whine. Harper was PM for nearly 10 years. Sorry, PP, fossil fuels won’t save you! macleans.ca/economy/why-...

Trump wants people to ‘appreciate’ his Great American State Fair flop

Watched Michelle Obama's speech today and had a gander at all the ex-potuses, and have concluded that Donald J Trump is not, in fact, in the best physical shape of any president in history.

When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.
richard nixon was to the left of every democratic president of my lifetime. this is not a defense of richard nixon.
The first order error is “We can maintain the infrastructure for AI indefinitely despite it costing a third of the American economy to run and maintain while generating less than $10 billion in revenue. Training kids to be reliant on that, despite documented learning loss, is a huge gamble.

Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump: "Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."
Dear Auston Mathews, Were you one of the lugs on TEAM USA who laughed at the Women's Team? We will know if you show up at the White House to kiss Trump's ring. If you do, don't bother coming back to Toronto. We like real sportsmen. Not MAGA Americans. Ask Gretzky for advice.

Prairiesunshine@scottishox2.bsky.social · 7mo ago#TrumpLogic Try to buy Greenlanders with tiny & insulting bribes. Try to buy votes by letting Americans go deeper in debt with temporary changes that end right after election. This will boost spending before the election and cause bankruptcies under the new Democrat-controlled Congress

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
