🤡🤬 Russian State Duma deputy Borodai openly admitted that Russia is brutally destroying Ukrainians because they allegedly "betrayed the Russian image of the future" and for refusing to join the "Russian world".

It’s Transgender Day of Visibility. We have always been here, even if the words to describe us have changed over time. We will always be here, long after the attacks on us are done.

A bit late in the day but I just wanted to send love out to all trans brothers and sisters on the Trans Day of Visibility.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred. As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

I don’t disagree with this stance at all. Hence, why I’m putting the blame on @cafreeland.bsky.social. It was his fucking cabinet! Not hers. I’m wondering if some of these LPC backbencher’s names are on the #NSICOPreport! I’m not donating a dime to the LPC. Not a fucking dime. 🪶😡

I contacted Lisa Raitt's employer CIBC about her behavior on CBC Power and Politics. She attacked the host on defence funding and said funds can be taken from indigenous affairs. I urged CIBC to keep her off such panels unless CIBC agrees with her views and behavior. I hope you will do the same.

These takes annoy the hell out of me. There was no need to plead that he not be released. He's been designated a dangerous offender from the start with zero chance of parole, and yet every time there's a hearing (a formality), people lose their minds. www.thestar.com/news/canada/...

The parole board noted that while Bernardo has made some progress during incarceration, there is still significant concern about his risk of sexual recidivism and his narcissistic personality disorder...

If you ask Americans, many will say they regret not making Trump a deal breaker in their personal lives. We must make Poilievre one. Especially women. Hairdresser? Friend from high school? Lover? Lunch work friend? If they support Poilievre, you have to make it non-negotiable.

I call on Pierre Poilievre to apologize and resign, given that convoy leader Pat King has been found guilty on criminal charges, and that Poilievre openly supported the convoy. Aiding and abetting criminal behavior should disqualify anyone for leading a major political party.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence. More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop. Now.

Really fucking mad at Alberta today for Harper. A lot of people (myself included) worked very hard for years so we would never have to endure that man again and now because the Florida of Canada says so, here we go again.

Jesus Christ! What is wrong with these people? I don't even have words for how disgusting they are. The right has gone over the cliff. They're utterly nihilistic. Don't tell me that we have to listen to these soulless monsters. Don't tell me there's a dialog to be had. PEOPLE VOTE FOR THIS! 🤮

I am finding it quite unbearable to watch Sarah McBride bear the grotesque attack of her colleagues with so much grace. I know it is what we have been taught to expect of trailblazers, but I am increasingly struggling to accept this.

The biggest homophobes in the CPC caucus are the ones going after LGBT minister Randy Boissonault the hardest. Hate is a great motivator for bullies.

Canadians need to wake up to real common sense. Pierre Poilievre has never represented Canadian values or virtues. He has always represented fealty to himself and his Christian Cabal. He’s a compromised foreign asset like Trump. And works with MAGA/Russian interests. Always has.

Good morning Canadians! Something I’m noticing with the abundance of Canadian accounts, not dominated by bots or twisted by algorithms, is the happy realization that Bluesky is offering us the chance to rediscover fellow Canadians right across the country! I think Peter Gzowski would approve.
