During a previous No Kings rally on June 16, 2025, an LAPD officer shot photographer Marshall Woodruff, 29, in his right eye, according to a lawsuit filed against the department. His eye had to be removed, leaving the aspiring filmmaker with an uncertain future in film, said his attorney, Aaron Liskin, a partner at Kinsella Holley Iser Kump Steinsapir LLP in Los Angeles.

Sky, my friend, "you will not have your life shortened by 'paperwork errors'" is a major feature of the Canadian system! Please understand that when people who have experienced both systems are lining up to request that you update your beliefs, we're not doing it to bully you.

Y'all gotta understand, I'm not saying this as someone who *doesn't* carry a backpack. I'm saying it as someone who answered the last woman who asked me "why are you wearing a backpack" with "it's my purse". She seemed to understand, but sadly, many do not ask.

Indeed. Her voting record as a Senator (the portion of her political career where she was not subordinate to someone else) is, uh, not moderate; her closest neighbors are Sanders and Warren.

The three month waiting period is generally a non-issue for moves *within* Canada because IIRC you retain coverage through the province you're moving from until the coverage through the province you're moving to kicks in. It is mostly an issue for people moving to Canada from elsewhere.

It is substantially better than the American system unless you are wealthy (or equivalently well-insured), at which point it is substantially worse (unless you fall off the edge of your insurance coverage).

IMPORTANT: today we saw an Italian wolf with a leaf on their nose. (This one was in the enclosure at the wolf rescue center in Alfedena, but Abruzzo National Park has a pretty healthy wild population of wolves).

We are horrified by this plot and relieved no one was hurt. We stand with Hindu and Indian Americans. No one should fear being murdered at prayer. The white supremacist behind it targeted Jews and Black people too, as often happens. Showing up for others is how we protect ourselves.
