It's illegal in Canada.
In their new feature documentary, PΓpsell: The Last Stand, award-winning journalist Brandi Morin and filmmaker Geordie Day expose the human and environmental costs of Canadaβs TMX pipeline.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.
if weβre fomenting rage against First Nations because people are being given two years notice to vacate their expiring leaseholds on reserve land then weβve kind of lost the plot
Noem is out largely due to massive public activism, especially in MN, Democrats expressing increasing interest in impeachment and investigations, and resulting media coverage.
Keep pushing. These people are not invincible or immune from public opinion.
Iranians have a "misguided religion", says a man who helped facilitate the transport of five red heifers from Texas to Tel Aviv because many evangelical Christians believe a red cow needs to be sacrificed to usher in the End Times.
America is being led by Evangelical zealots who are cheering on Trump and Netanyahu's Armageddon to usher in the Second Coming of Republican Jesus π¬ newrepublic.com/post/207270/...
βNatural gasβ prices in the EU have shot up ~40% in a day on news that Qatar is ceasing liquid βnaturalβ gas production at the worldβs largest plant.
In related news, sunlight and wind remain free.οΏΌ
They were going to pass rules to phase out gas stoves, until they received 20,000 public comments against the regulations. Except, oops, it turns out the comments were generated by AI.
God this is just so wrong.
i cannot stop thinking about this man, who survived the Rohingya genocide but couldnβt survive border patrol. βHe died trying to get homeβ is a gut punch
Ah, itβs so disappointing when politicians exploit cultural differences to fearmonger to Chinese voters about drugs. The important and nuanced details get completely lost in the discourse.
As the guy who wrote the book on zoning abolition, I'd like to go on record as saying: if you can use zoning to stop the concentration camps, fucking go for it.
Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.
God bless the Streisand effect
I'm sorry wat
Had a great chat to one of the best climate journalists in the world, @amywestervelt.bsky.social, about criminalisation & repression of climate & environmental protest around the world the other day. Hereβs the result.
People often ask me why I left the U.S. and there are various reasons but the thing that made me start really making an exit strategy was when journalists covering Standing Rock were being arrested. Historically a very bad sign for democracy. Seeing it get worse and more blatant is scary and sad
Abolish ICE.
Thereβs no reforming it.
Thereβs no compromise.
Thereβs only one way to rein in ICEβs terror campaign. Abolish it.
1 day left. This is it!

It's weird how after every good thing/gain (even if we don't call it a victory) people circle up to insist we shouldn't celebrate. Celebrating is not how people give up, in my experience; believing we can't win, never win, and have no power is (with a side of joylessness).
Happening now: βICE outβ protests from East Coast to West Coast in solidarity π₯
Meme: Tina Fey says βwhat a year, huh? Alec Baldwin replies βLemon, itβs January.β
This January is already more January than any January has ever Januaryed.

Solidarity and awareness matter more than ever. β
Unhook ourselves from oil and gas and we unhook ourselves from dependency on dictators, autocrats and expansionist regimes all over the planet.
Renewables and other low-carbon energy sources are not just good climate sense. They are also good political sense.
Your periodic reminder that the US is a petrostate, has been governing like one for decades, and ending the fossil fuel era can't come fast enough.
Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.
I simply cannot believe we are doing this all over again. America must be stopped. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
Saw Bluesky described as where elder millennials go to retire from the internet, and immediately felt the peace that passes all understanding wash over me. None of have to struggle any longer. We completed our time.
I admire Zelensky's composure. This is beyond infuriating.
