Clare Blackwood@clareblackwood.bsky.social · 3d agoI dunno y'all, I don't have the energy for a bunch of immediate, "Yay, Canada can start making ties with America again!" thinkpieces.

Now that we’ve finished electing Democrats, it’s time to get back to the real work, which is raking them over the coals for every stupid, cowardly, and insufficient thing they do. Congratulations on your victories! Now suffer the consequences.
Jonathan Cohn @jonathancohn.bsky.social · 4d agoNow that he's safely won re-election, I will provide an important reminder: Jon Ossoff abandoned his wife and newborn baby to fly into DC to vote for the crypto industry's priority bill, and that an anti-corruption politics that doesn't cover that doesn't do enough.
It’s time for the stormtroopers to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the people of the Galatic Empire who pay for their bloated budget.
i already didn’t feel bad about stealing articles from corporate media but damn this is egregious
its gonna be annoying as hell to hear all the "woke is back!" and "we can go back to brunch!" talk tomorrow when all girls in washington will be undergoing state-mandated genital inspections in order to punish trans girls for existing.
We do not have to wait to bully the Dems to do what we want. We can start tonight when we have all this energy

There was an anti-AI data centre rally in Auld’s Cove this afternoon, and I got there as it was wrapping up. The group handed out 300 flyers in just over an hour, and said only one person didn’t want a flyer, so that’s something.
Suzanne Rent@suzannerent.bsky.social · last wk.I had a great two days in Cape Breton interviewing mayors and wardens. One of the wardens is a birder too, so we talked about birds for the first 15 minutes of our meeting.
