Judge sides with First Nations to prevent ‘Alberta’ separatist petition count, for now Chiefs raise concerns about provincial government and pro-separation lawyers talking outside court — as Court of King’s Bench orders a temporary stay

An "Alberta" court has sided with First Nations opposing a petition to hold a separatist referendum in the province.

"We are standing up for our treaties, for our people and for the land that is all under threat through this referendum effort."

it's going to be a gay nick bottom (the weaver) summer. i'm calling it now

you don't see husbands realizing they forgot their anniversary and searching for a gift and seeing the necklace their wife wanted in a window for $50 and pulling out an empty wallet and moths flying out and then seeing a poster that says "BOXING MATCH FIRST PRIZE $50" and saying "hmmm" much anymore

This is also a self-soothing tale that thin people tell themselves: that theirs are the only bodies that are worthy of desire, and that fat bodies are impossible to want. But that's demonstrably false.

For those of us who never used all of our Bluesky invite codes before they went away, they should be turned into uninvite codes where we can delete accounts of our choice

Is the kid going to love Uncle Bobby until the day he dies? Absolutely. Is this an underhanded, no-good, somewhat-pathetic way to make sure that I stay in the good graces of my best friend forever? Yes. Yes, it is.

happy "chicago is yucky" day

happy international women's day

a black and white typography edit that reads "i am making permanent choices because i want permanent changes." the text is in all caps and is printed over a opened case of tools. the image is textured with very small halftone dots

i ❣️ bodily autonomy

i really wanted to read and learn more about evolution but when you eliminate the crackpots in pop science it was almost just Gould and Darwin himself. i'm a fake fucking dino girl

i unsurprisingly always loved this quote by stephen jay gould and it inspired me to actually read one of his books but it was ENTIRELY baseball analogies and american history for american readers. not bad objectively but essentially not readable english to me

most shockingly of all, the alien craft was reportedly adorned with a sort of bumper sticker that said "Earth Hoes Cant Fuck"

RYM should segregate the music by gender like Fragrantica

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live. "This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario." The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?" NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD." Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version." PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."

A fabricated Tweet responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. Isaboner: "Nothing for Switch 1 owners?"

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

Anyway.

I am pretty sure that there is no woman or other person of marginalized gender in comics whose career has not been substantially impacted--whether they saw it or not--by the extent to which misogyny, expressed partly by harassment and assault, are normalized in the comics industry. (cont'd)

"We would have lost so much if we'd driven him away" is the justification.

But we lost all those girls. We lost the women they would have become. We lost the work they would have done. Why was his future work so much more valuable than theirs?

Is it bad if your stock is down almost 40% over a year despite quadrupling down on AI during a stock market bubble?

I like to think that while Doctor Doom was off fighting the Fantastic Four Kristoff let Hallmark shoot a dozen Christmas movies in Latvaria.
