Canadian Solarpunk cat dad. I used to believe in things, but Bluesky cured me of that. Now I exist only to rescue cats. I am broken and can no longer be repaired.

I hope that teen runs. Trying to give your child polio is at best a serious assault, and at-worse, murder.

I spent all that money educating myself to make dick all, and this guy is in the newspaper for being a fucking idiot.

Well, @mark-carney.bsky.social is nothing if not *spectacularly* corrupt. It serves its oligarch masters by emptying our the Canadian treasury for them...and we don't even get enough good paying jobs in return to counter all the public servants it's fired!

Good for share prices. Bad for Canadians.

Reminder that Carney has repeatedly defended the idea of Canada joining this fiasco.

Now these organizations will die, because women don’t like any of this stupid bullshit and women understand that anti-trans organizations seek to control and oppress us

We live in a world beyond parody. The United States has had four minesweeper vessels in the Persian Gulf for 35 years. Just yesterday these ships arrived in Philadelphia to be decommissioned, a day before Iran announces that they are mining the Strait of Hormuz.

The immune system is not a muscle.

It is a cleansing fire.

It causes collateral damage.

It has a limited supply of fuel.

It can get out of control.

Don’t burn your whole house down every time by catching every disease without caution.

i feel like i have to keep pointing out that this is the second time in a week the Democrats have had a prominent member offer up tax cuts for the wealthy. first Cory Booker's dumb bill and now this bill which is basically a tax cut for oil companies.

πŸ‘€ ICE deported two U.S. citizen children with their mother to Guatemala, even though she had apparently elected to leave them with their grandmother in Florida.

The govt is now arranging their return under court order: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It's genuinely wild how casual a lot of Americans broadly are about Trump's rhetoric on Canada.

Calling ICE on neighbors, given their murderous past, is effectively Swatting. Being caught should be treated with the same or greater legal punishment.

What do we do to swatting criminals who's actions result in fatalities ?.

"Sorry"...doesn't cut it.

Man calls ICE on his neighborβ€”gets the wife & daughter deported.

"I'm sorry, it was an accident," he says.

"You never wanted us in this neighborhoodβ€”you liar!" man yells.

"I don't mind you people... I got Mexican friends," he replies. "We had Mexican lady who cleaned for us."

We are calling on ICE to immediately release journalist Estefany Rodriguez, who has covered immigration, including ICE actions, for the Spanish-language news site Nashville Noticias.

I will continue to poke away at the problem until I run out of funds, but so far I have been unsuccessful in finding any supports outside of that 11 weeks of EI.

At least it is a lovely place to spend my time.

Yeah, the province was...unhelpful. I am continuing to pursue that, but even if they decide to help, and even with the federal pharmacare funds addition, BC's pharmacare implementation would only cover 1x of 7x meds...and the cheapest one at that.

If you're on Simpcw land, then you know how dire the job market is out here for folks who can't stand for more than 5 minutes, and who can't get living wage remote work. It's a bad time for the entire trench.

I won't do that to her. So I am looking now at all my options while I still have a couple months' worth of savings left to find a solution.

My meds are like $1500 a month, my dietary requirements (due to the diabetes and a couple other things) out me at around $15-$25 a day for food...I'm just *expensive to keep alive*.

And if I can't bring in more than I cost then me just existing is going to cost my wife the house and/or retirement.

Can't get pharmacare because that's based on your past two years of income, and I'll be forced into selling my home to pay the bills before I get two years out from being laid off. Ditto dental care. (Which sucks, as I lost a filling in December.)
