Dani the Decider has decided and you’re getting permanent daylight savings time whether you like it or not! You thought there was no right or wrong answer on DST? Turns out there is when Danielle Smith is in charge. albertapolitics.ca/2026/04/dani...

The fact that every major police union endorsed Donald Trump is under appreciated in our political discourse.
One of the Sandy Hook families lives in hiding 1500 mi away from their baby’s grave due to people stalking them.
The graves of multiple children have been defaced.
One of the fathers had to submit DNA evidence to prove his son was a REAL HUMAN BEING after Alex Jones’ book said he never existed.
The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.
It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.

Here for it !
The Onion has successfully bought InfoWars. Happy 4/20. 😂

Breaking: Iran has re-imposed restrictions on the Strait of Hormuz — accusing the U.S. of violating the deal to reopen it.
Iran says it will continue to block transit as long as the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports remains in effect.
The Iranian military says the Strait of Hormuz is closed again. Ships are turning back.
Alberta’s #UCP government served notice in the legislature Thursday it intends to toss out the entire report of the 2025-26 Electoral Boundaries Commission.
This is unprecedented as far as electoral boundary commissions go, but not a complete surprise, writes @djclimenhaga.bsky.social. #abpoli
Time and time again the UCP treat Albertans like we’re stupid fools.
The UCP is letting Kevin O’Leary’s AI Data Center skip its standard environmental impact assessment— despite being built in a municipality facing emergency drought conditions.
Why does the Premier have one set of rules for Albertans and another set of rules for her friends? #abpoli #ableg #abtech

DoorDash Grandma isn't a paid plant. (For that, you need to be paid!) Instead, her story is far worse.
She's a depressing example of how MAGA cultists have internalized the lies that justify their own oppression.
An analysis.

Honestly you know why that image upsets some evangelicals...they are realizing the man that they worship actually might also be the dude they kept warning us about

Don’t miss this part:
Trump is threatening to interdict EVERY VESSEL in international waters who paid a toll to pass through the Strait of Hormuz—which would include CHINESE ships.
This was a good piece by researchers at Western that argues for exactly that - a "safety by design" approach rather than a ban. news.westernu.ca/2025/12/expe...
Those US-Iran negotiations in a nutshell:
Iran sent 4 PhDs to Islamabad.
The US sent a real estate developer, a son-in-law, a lawyer and a general.
Wild that Trump has sent his son in law who has billions in business deals in the Middle East to negotiate with Iran and that isn’t a scandal that will end his presidency or even really mentioned by the networks
