If you weren't following, the US has already used private US corporations to freeze the personal bank accounts of members of the International Criminal Court and UN who spoke about US crimes. To allow another country this kind of power in our banking system is mental.

It's possible it started off more genuine and then some pushy friend or parent with a camera got involved? Who knows. Hopefully they had a good time regardless but the way it's done and the publicity don't seem healthy for either of them.

Maybe I'm just being cynical, but I hate that this was videoed and put online and talked about this way. It really diminishes the kindness if there's a camera ready and he is treated as a hero for it, and it's pretty demeaning to the girl to portray spending time with her as a heroic act of charity.

What is the tech industry truly afraid of? Is it the AI they have unleashed, as they want us to believe? Or is it…all of us, standing up to them? Thanks to Chris Hayes for having us on.

The fact that it's only a couple of days is IMO one of the reasons this is a good idea. Cities with constant snow invest in a big fleet of professionals with plows and get it cleared before morning. Cities with occasional snow can have a hard time coordinating and budgeting for quick on-call service

I think the primary purpose is probably to get the snow shoveled quickly when it needs to be. Doing it this way is a bonus.

It's always true that nothing lasts forever, but equally true that that's not always enough of a comfort in the face of the mass destruction and deaths and suffering and extinction and irreversible harm that can happen before the end.

I'm not sure what you even mean by 'cross-faith trust'. Are we talking about religion now??? Personally I'd like to see the current maga government overwhelmingly voted out by a landslide vote and criminally charged, but it wouldn't make me trust the US. It's just something they should obviously do.

Personally I think Canadians need to focus on expanding our trade partners and on interprovincial trade, as well as the process of safely detangling our economy from the US. Americans need to focus on building their country into a functioning democracy.

basiamh.bsky.social @basiamh.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
I don't think you should look for unity with Canadians at all. NAFTA was rightly very controversial in the first case, and the last year or two have made it clear that it was a grave mistake to allow any other country to have that degree of power over us. I hope we never make such a mistake again.

The things you're describing are all step 1-2 out of a few hundred steps needed to turn the US into a safe and potentially trustworthy country in my lifetime or maybe in the next generation.

basiamh.bsky.social @basiamh.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
A complete rehaul of the US political system, elimination of private campaign financing, and changes to their laws so it's impossible for anything like this to happen again. And then wait a few decades to see if it is real and lasts.

basiamh.bsky.social @basiamh.bsky.social · 06/09/2026
That's a super insulting and patronising portrayal of Canadians. Yikes. I would hope no Canadian would ever be 'loyal' to another country! We're generally reasonable and care about mutually beneficial interests, but don't insult us by comparing us to your pet dog FFS.

Incredibly brazen for the Prime Minister to boast about the “lasting benefits” of expanding fossil fuel production on a day like today. Record-breaking heatwaves. Toxic smoke engulfing cities and towns. Out of control wildfires forcing entire communities to evacuate. /1

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

Then they have to delay care while gathering 'enough' evidence to prove the fetus has miscarried. Or sometimes wait hours or days longer until the miscarriage has reached a particular stage, in case someone later claims that there was some one in a million chance of saving the fetus.

The medical distinction is not always clear. And the risk of death or disability to the mother is even less clear - every pregnancy carries risks, some carry more, and any time we set an arbitrary limit on what level of risk is 'bad enough', it means some percentage of women die or are disabled.

basiamh.bsky.social @basiamh.bsky.social · 24/04/2026
Criminalising providers causes doctors to fear providing medical care to women with pregnancy complications or miscarriages, to delay care while trying to gather evidence to protect themselves, to wait until things get worse, and leads directly to deaths and long term disabilities for pregnant women

American commentators and right wing politicians are expressing shock that countries they have repeatedly threatened with invasion, disrespected on the international stage, and economically bullied are forging new alliances. Sorry guys, but it’s FAFO time.

I’ve heard most journalists and politicians say that Trump hasn’t been directly accused of wrongdoing or implicated in the Epstein Files. But, there are repeated instances of Trump being directly named as a perpetrator—by victims and by Epstein. It’s not circumstantial, it’s direct.
