Trump’s Justice Department is rewriting the history of Watergate. And this time, they’re casting Richard Nixon as the hero. It sounds like an Onion headline. But it’s not. Please watch & share. youtube.com/shorts/2DKoT...

Excellent piece by @charlieangus104.bsky.social, correctly calling out some pernicious shit.

Funny, because the Truckers got three weeks to hang out before police lifted a finger. Interesting.

An apocalyptic worldview – blending racial hierarchy, genetic “optimisation” and even climate-driven population culling – circulated inside the elite, founder-linked networks shaping Silicon Valley (and the AI industry) today. @nafeez.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/12/05/h...

“Everything I don’t like is genocide,”
“Everything I don’t like is genocide,” they chant with smug faces.

Fine.

I don’t like cities turned to rubble,
I don’t like families buried underneath,
I don’t like mangled bodies,
I don’t like scattered bones,
I don’t like the sound a parent makes when they outlive their child,
I don’t like babies learning the sounds of war before they learn the sound of birds.

So no… 
I don’t like Russia’s genocide in Ukraine.
I don’t like Israel’s genocide in Palestine.
I don’t like anyone’s genocide anywhere.

Police the words of the living
while the dead keep piling up.
History will not remember
who won the argument.

It will remember the dead.
It will remember who killed them.
It will remember who enabled it.

Call me a fool. Call me a terrorist.  Call me whatever you need to call me to wipe the blood off your hands and the guilt from your soul. But most of all, call me predictable:

Everything I don’t like is genocide.

I nearly croaked from measles-caused pneumonia when I was 3, the year before the vaccine came out: lungs scarred for life.

A common political excuse, too: “We’re doing a great job, it’s just a communication failure that people don’t know about it!”

That said, people of the same generation can have vastly different memories. I did sound for a F Mac tribute last night, place was packed and everyone sang along, but I swear there weren’t more than half a dozen songs I recognized, and I realised I’d never listened to Rumours even once.

I hear a fair bit of new music, as a musician & a sound tech who’s often working in situations where everyone is a generation younger that me, but it’s natural that the music of yer teens/20s will stick with you.

Not quite 100 y/o, though? I nearly croaked from measles-related pneumonia as a 3y/o in 1965 UK: the vaccine (which my aunt was on the team of) came out the following year.

Did Rotten Ronnie really do that?! As if he didn’t do enough egregious shit… (Speaking of which, late 70s Quebec premier René Lévesque actually was a CBC reporter at the liberation of one of the death camps.)

I’ll always remember that show, Line: not only was it the second Top Ranking show, and the one that really got us going; but it was also the night I met Odette! 42 years later….

Carney has done this largely by being an old-school Progressive Conservative: that was the conservative party here, until the early 2000s when they merged with Reform, a populist-right party based on western Canadian grievances.

Yes, this!

Patrick Hutchinson @patrickndg.bsky.social · 03/09/2026
I have the same serious misgivings about many of Carney’s policies, but I am very glad that it’s him in power rather than PP, under the circs. My hope is that, when this current political crisis has passed, voters will then choose a more progressive option, as in the UK after WWII.

Insane! Apart from everything else wrong, I can’t believe these evil goofs have to/get to walk around with ski masks the whole time, like bankrobbers. Props to the woman’s righteous bravery, telling them they’re full of shit while they’re waving a gun in her face.
