The US is a far-right illiberal democracy, not unlike Hungary under Orban, but on a scale never before seen in human history. The potential effects on global civilization are catastrophic. We need to isolate the US from the world as a matter of self-preservation.
The backlash against the Spotify logo is vapid rage cycle clickbait. We get it, you hate everything and like to be extremely petty and noisy about it 😏 #Spotify #RageCycle #DoomScrolling #FuckOff

If you follow harm reduction or want to know more about the topic, you might enjoy this Medium article I wrote about how moralized narratives hurt recovery. #HarmReduction #DrugPolicy #SubstanceUse #Substances #Drugs #Health #Healthcare #Canada #Politics #CdnPoli […]

Harm reduction saves lives by reducing overdoses, preventing disease, and connecting people to care. Abstinence-only fails substance users, with higher rates of illness, overdose, and relapse. #HarmReduction #DrugPolicy #SubstanceUse #Substances #Drugs #Health #Healthcare #Canada #Politics #CdnPoli
Indigenous communities are disproportionately affected by the opioid crisis due to discrimination and culturally inappropriate treatment. Harm reduction saves lives and can help preserve cultural identity. #HarmReduction #DrugPolicy #Health #Healthcare #SubstanceUse #Indigenous #FirstNations
AI doesn’t make people stupid. It reduces cognitive load by offloading some work, the same way Google or calculators do, without harming our ability to think. It extends thought rather than replacing it, letting us solve harder problems faster while leaving our underlying skills intact. #AI […]

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested. Not because he raped underage girls, but because he leaked trade reports. He is being held to account over trade reports before his crimes against children. #UK #UKPoli #Politics #Windsor #Royal #Monarchy #Andrew #Epstein #Giuffre […]

Matt Jeneroux has changed his mind and decided to cross the floor instead of resign. Goes to show that negativity and American-style politics are a losing strategy in Canada. #Canada #CdnPoli #Politics #LPC #CPC #Liberals #Conservatives #FloorCrossing #Jeneroux #Poilievre #Carney […]

The circumstances around Tumbler Ridge are becoming clearer. This was committed by a person who should have never been around guns, but who was clearly raised around a plethora of poorly secured weapons. A modified long gun in particular was used, and the shooter's parents had a long history of […]

My country has just endured the worst school shooting in it's history. This is not something that happens often here. Our hearts go out to the families affected by this tragedy in Tumbler Ridge. #Canada #BC #TumblerRidge #SchoolShooting #Tragedy #Crisis #Disaster #Fundraiser #GoFundMe […]

Gen Z use AI to aid thought. Millennials use AI to aid work. Gen X use AI cautiously as a tool. Boomers are most likely to be AI skeptics. #Technology #AI #Automation #Science #LLM #ChatGPT #Zoomers #Boomers #Millennials #Futurism
Danielle Smith only wants power for herself. She is undermining the independence of the judiciary in her province. She openly believes in parliamentary supremacy. She believes the courts should answer to her, and that she should be able to ignore them. Her argument is that we should be more […]

This was obviously a right-wing coup orchestrated by Machado, in collaboration with the US. This would also explain the ease of Maduro's capture. She is openly placating the tyrant who invaded her country. Conservatives will only ever be loyal to their own self-interest. It is foolish to trust […]

I am getting sick of performative anti-AI bullshit. If you don't like AI, then simply don't use it. Stop involving the rest of us in your insecurities. It's not going away just because you call it stupid and useless at every opportunity. #AI #Technology #Politics #Science #Automation #NeoLuddites
The Trump administration is sharing blatant falsehoods at a record pace. Embarrassingly fake and childish images. Lying about Carney. Their support is collapsing, and lying is their only survival skill. #US #USPoli #Politics #Minnesota #Carney #FuckTrump #Corruption #Failure #AmericanCollapse
So Trump has caved on Greenland. The battle is over. Once more, the bully lost. Collective power will always defeat singular power. #US #USPoli #Politics #Europe #NATO #Greenland #Denmark #FuckTrump
See? Standing up to Trump works. Bluster and bullying come from a place of cowardice. Standing up for yourself is always the right choice. Fuck Trump ✊ #US #USPoli #Politics #Europe #NATO #Greenland #Denmark #FuckTrump https://www.cbc.ca/news/trump-tariffs-greenland-9.7055007
Congratulations to Jenner Yeremiy for gathering 6,500 signatures to remove UCP Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides from the Alberta legislature. They needed 16,000, but the message of dissent is clear. #Canada #Alberta #CdnPoli #Politics #UCP #Yeremiy #Nicolaides #DanielleSmith #Recall
You don’t have to approve of substance use to support harm reduction. You just have to care whether people live or die. Harm reduction is risk management, not endorsement. #HarmReduction #DrugPolicy #SafeConsumption #SubstanceUse #Drugs #Substances #Health #Healthcare
Canada will be sending troops to help defend Greenland against the United States. So is the rest of NATO (except, of course, the US). Bullying does not work. The Americans apparently don't realize this. Bluster is not substance. Trump is not strong. He is a lonely, isolated grifter. #Canada […]

Le PQ veut un référendum. Les libéraux… ben, c’est des libéraux 🤷♂️. La CAQ pis les conservateurs sont plus occupés à être racistes pis à taper sur les médecins qu’à gouverner. Peut-être qu’il est temps pour QS. #Québec #Canada #QS #QuébecSolidaire #Politique #Polqc #Polcan
Innocent until proven guilty is a legal rule that limits state punishment. It isn’t a claim about reality. Courts decide whether evidence meets a legal threshold, not whether something actually happened. Society, institutions, and individuals are allowed to assess credibility, risk, and patterns […]

AI does not have agency. Anything created with AI is not somehow artificial; it is manmade. A human being had to imagine the outcome before any AI involvement. AI was just the tool, like a pen or paintbrush. #AI #Technology #Science #Politics #Policy #Automation #NeoLuddites
Trump is a person that Pollievre and many in the Conservative Party openly support. They think behaviour like this is reasonable. This is bad for Canada and Canadians. We must stand in solidarity with Greenland. #US #Canada #Greenland #Denmark #USPoli #CdnPoli #Politics #FuckTrump […]
