ChatGPT misspelled "corrupt." You needed AI for this? You had to use a huge amount of water and electricity to post AI slop when you could've just written these words of wisdom?

You can now recycle more in your blue cart! More packaging can now go in your blue cart, including flexible plastic bags and wrappers, foam packaging, aerosols, and tubes. Remember: recycle them empty, clean and loose (unbagged). Learn more at www.calgary.ca/waste/reside...
Infographic announcing that, starting October 1, 2026, new provincial recycling rules allow more packaging to be recycled in blue carts. A large blue recycling cart is shown at the bottom with arrows pointing into it. Examples of newly accepted items are grouped into four categories: flexible plastic bags and wrappers (chip bag, coffee bag, food pouch, snack wrapper), foam packaging (protective foam block, foam egg carton, foam takeout container, meat tray), food and body aerosols (cooking spray, deodorant spray, sunscreen spray, whipped cream can), and tubes (deodorant, hair gel tube, lotion tube, toothpaste).

Stop treating separatists as if they aren't a lunatic fringe. Tiny % of Albertans. They don't care about job opportunities because they're all over 70. They hate Canada. They hate you.

Albertans with Canadian flags attached to their car in 2026 and Albertans with Canadian flags attached to their car in 2021 are completely non-overlapping groups.

They are ADDICTED to this notion that AB is conservative. They want to cast us all as villains and give voice to separatists as if they're half the province and not a lunatic fringe.

Trudeau bought an entire pipeline to try and appease Albertans and afterwards the province was awash in pickups with FUCK TRUDEAU bumper stickers because they didn't want him to buy them a pipeline they wanted him tried at the Hague over covid measures. These are deranged and dangerous people.

I'm going to say this without pointing the finger at the person below bc they get it, but many outside Alberta, I believe, don't have a full grasp of what this movement is. It isn't like Quebec, it is almost entirely without basis and can never be mollified or appeased, only fought against.

It's almost impossible to get a tenure track job at a school like Dartmouth, an elite university. In my field I'd have competed with ~400 very qualified candidates. The idea that the PROVOST is using AI in the conduct of his job is sickening and makes me happy that I've retired from academia.

I always try to mention Melissa Barrera the past two years because she was the first celebrity casualty for simply speaking out against genocide. She shared an article by a scholar and that was enough to cancel her. I hope people give her the spotlight and some love. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

Melissa Barrera Says Support for Macklemore After He Was Dropped from Ed Sheeran’s Tour Is ‘Beautiful’ and ‘I Didn’t Get That’ After Being Fired From ‘Scream’
Melissa Barrera is voicing her respect for the musicians who have dropped out of Ed Sheeran’s tour following Macklemore’s dismissal over his support for Palestine.

There has been more energy in the US to disrupt or cancel an Ed Sheeran concert than the multiple visits Netanyahu has made to the US.

Trump won. Brexit happened. We can’t let apathy hand Alberta to the separatists. By following the 5X plan, we can stop separation, crush the 9 Questions, and defeat Danielle Smith. Get started now at 5x.ca.

Mark Carney - a LIBERAL PM - is more popular in Alberta than Danielle Smith, by a full 9 points. He’s more popular than Pierre Poilievre. He’s more popular than anyone & everyone. And despite being the conservative heartland of the nation, Alberta resoundingly rejects Donald Trump. #cdnpoli

Barry Cooper is a fascist worshipping hack who has been shilling for the ultra right for decades. I don't get why he hasn't immigrated to the US, Russia, or Israel. Same with all of his "Calgary mafia" traitorous colleagues. They despise Canada.
