Looks like the missing riding for the NDP is Peace River North In 2024, the NDP candidate got 5% of the vote The last time the party cracked 10% there was in 2009 Incumbent Jordan Kealy, who is charged with sexual assault, is facing just 1 challenger: Conservative Curtis Whitford #bcpoli

It’s so weird how when you tell the rest of the world to go fuck itself and fill your nation’s streets with gangs of armed, masked, and unaccountable armed thugs and terrorize people at the border…that people will decide to vacation elsewhere. Who could have guessed?

We are paying CNN and MS NOW to run ads for Donald Trump right before the midterms. You and I are paying for them. And CNN and MS NOW are taking the cash while their hosts and guests say the scheme is illegal. That is the current state of corporate media in America.

I think I've said this before but a weird new treat of 2026 in online media is if you write a news story that gets people's attention it will almost immediately start being fed back to you on Meta in the form of uncredited, AI generated slop posts that strip away all context and authorship

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced. There is no real justice system

An advertisement for Ashley's Inc. Sta. "A" in El Paso, Texas, saying "TACOS (MEXICAN SANDWICHES) Crisp tortilla shells filled with meat, beans, avocado or what you will... topped with lettuce and spicy taco sauce a treat for your family.  So easy with Ashley's!"  The image is an attractive woman's face with flowers in her hair as she gestures to the products: Ashley's tortillas and other packages.
