Canadians should NOT be traveling to the US. Our sovereignty is under threat. Our economy is under threat. The US has fallen and is regularly committing egregious human rights violations. ICE has locked up Canadians. Boycott America. Vote with your dollar & stand against fascism.

Generally speaking, people who think evil is romantic and varied are making a basic error: immorality can be romantic and varied. However, very little of immorality is completely evil.

Sadly, art briles is not only not dead, he's coaching in college again (at Division II Eastern New Mexico). But we can certainly hope it's soon

Well, they're counting on the split in labor (other unions, notably the UAW, are backing Hamilton) to benefit them. Meanwhile, O'Briens backing trump got him what he wanted (republicans removed the federal co sent agreement on the teamsters) so yes.

F for Fake, you see Orseon Welles join the new hollywood scene and the man had so much damned fun doing it. The Long Goodbye (1971) or 3 Women (1976) - for less talked about Altman that defy expectations

We either do, or the next presidency will just be another Biden (a brief 4 year sojurn before the fascists return). They are a present danger that must be addressed.

Of coyrse, thanks to the cold war, Hungry has a sleek modern Constitution were the goal is government speedy efficiency. The US? We have a museum piece based on the outdared idea that "that which gocerns best, governs least". Nothing in the US happens speedy because it wasnt designed to.

What I'm hearing is the Eminem lyrics are fake, repeat the Eminem lyrics are apparently fake (and a lot of folks with credibility who bought into it have...quietly deleted). Having said that? His decision to collaborate with Kid Rock is...quite bad

Agreed. Though the Browns brought in Watson after accusations started, the Lions tend to avoid bringing in people they know are terrible.

Nathan from Michigan @nathanfrommi.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
It's ancursed fandom, but I do have to say the Lions have avoided the really scummy stuff in NFL franchises (like getting behind people like Watson), so there's that

Still remember arguing with a campaign intern in 18 as he was talking about "if we even get the House, it'll be a small majority of a seat or 2"...I disagreed (and was right)

I, of course, have no idea on the breakdown but at +15 there's gonna be a fuckton of House seats and state legislatives that swing that we have no idea were even gonna be competitive

Sometimes I look at back on that election, even though I remember it as an observer/voter and not someone working it (I wasn't union then and worked at a Republican company so...), and I feel old by how much thongs have changed

For the Senator Schmitt Hawks/Hawkeye gaffe, here's a theory: it wasn't andumb mistake but, rather an attempt to do a hit job and drop "collusion" & "perjury" charges on camera and not give anyone a chance to refute. The way he didn't want others to see it makes me think he tried to pull a fast one

BILLIONAIRES: We’re not ‘confiscating’ anything. 45 years ago, you made society a promise that if we reduced your taxes, you would use some of that money to improve conditions for all Americans. Instead, you chose to do the opposite. You had a great ride…your greed is why we’re here. ➡️ TAX THE RICH!

You had a great ride, but, let’s be clear - your greed is why we’re here.”

Prediction hat- Jocelyn Benson despite being ignored on Bluesky and criticized by Dems on facebook, probably wins Governor by more than Dr El-Sayed wins US Senate. Though to be fair, from the digital a d TV ads I'm seeing, James has already been triaged as I'm seeing almost nothing

While I'm no one terribly important, in my time I've been in some rooms. And the folks I've been blessed to know have, for the most part, been good people. Candidates and insiders in the MDP botj. And I've been blessed to know so many. Are there flaws? Sure, we're talking about people, but good
