So @nsgov.bsky.social was told in 2022 they were overspending, but they went ahead with a tax cut & toll removal anyway. This isn’t overspending that β€œhappened to” the government, but a budget they designed that will make us all poorer. Fiscally irresponsible #NSPoli oag-ns.ca/media/news-r...

We raised just under 1000 dollars during the charity stream which will go towards at least 500 pairs of socks making our total of over 1800 socks during this years sock drive. Thank you to all who were there.

Thank you to: Transgw0rl, kairos_rev_, MapleTakes, and Isla for making this a possibility

❗On Friday evening, the CAJ learned that journalist Rachel Gilmore had recently been approached in public by individuals linked to, or implicated in, an investigation she had written, and was published by The Tyee that focused on white nationalists.

My employer Canterbury Shaker Village lost a small NEH grant. I wrote it. I used words such as "equality" and "citizenship." The same words were used in CHATGPT to cancel grants.

The same words are in the nation's founding documents.

Ruben Ray Martinez: Footage shows US citizen shot by ICE agent in Texas traffic stop The Department of Homeland Security did not disclose Martinez was shot by one of its agents until almost a year later.

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.

"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

there's no coherent policy based on convincing individuals of overwhelming scientific consensus. they need to be ostracized to convince others not to join them. Banning smoking in restaurants bars and airplanes was incredibly effective because it increased the social penalties of smoking

It was so heartening to join the protest at Province House and see how big and diverse the crowd was. I hate that we have to do it, but I loved to see how many people care about our province.

Protest signs wedged in the fence outside the NS Legislature read 'Farewell to Nova Scotia, the arts are toast' 'Put the tolls back MORON' 'Tiny Tim is in his scrooge era' 'save our stories' 'Houston Pennywise, pound foolish' (with drawing of Pennywise the clown), 'Dave Ritcey, why do you betray your home?' 'If the dancers aren't funded the dancers will leave', 'I've heard of "cancel culture" but this is ridiculous' and an empty frame reading 'poster no longer available due to cuts'

a four-panel stick-figure cartoon

panel one:
three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. 

panel two:
the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested.

panel three:
as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-"

panel four
phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."
