what if we stopped sharing the results of polls without specifying who conducted them? unless you tell me where they came from those percentages are meaningless to me

The United States is taking aim at Canada once again, with a crushing new set of tariffs. Ultimately, government will need to solve this. But in the same way Canadians are avoiding US alcohol, produce, and other goods, they should get off US tech products too. Luckily, I have a guide for that.

I’m in the process of dropping US tech services. Here’s how I did it, and options you should consider.

this study permit application has me so stressed but it’s kind of hysterical how i would literally sell a kidney to live in ottawa and then i go online and canadians are like “this city sucks, it’s the most boring place in the country, don’t come here if you like yourself even a little bit”

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.

Importantly, there are hundreds of million of dollars of capital available to back a competitor to Mamdani that can be put together overnight (believe me, I am in the text strings and the WhatsApp groups) so that a great alternative candidate won't spend any time raising funds.

As he wrapped up his speech, Brad Lander again congratulated Mamdani, whom he cross-endorsed. And Lander, who is Jewish, declared, “We are not going to let anyone divide Muslim New Yorkers and Jewish New Yorkers.”

Feels like ranked choice was absolutely decisive in this race—not because of the vote count, but because of how it changed the incentives from zero-sum to cooperapetitive. It allowed a fractured left field to align organically through co-endorsements instead of falling into a circular firing squad.

If you're a lower-level politician thinking about taking on a well-known establishment Democrat, keep in mind that no one had heard of Zohran Mamdani a month ago. A little enthusiasm and a spine beats big money in 2025.

N95 masks are PPE. They’re designed to protect the wearer from covid, airborne viruses, wildfire smoke & more. They’re a public health tool. Gaitors & bandanas are face coverings worn by ICE goons who want to conceal their identity because they’re kidnapping people They’re not the same.

“But nuclear war!” That’s not what’s gong to happen. What’s going to happen is that we will kill people. Those deaths will multiply incalculably from disease, starvation, environmental damage, destabilization. We will create generational trauma. We will erode humanity. A few men will get richer.
