That's what I was here to ask!

UBI works. Guaranteed basic incomes allow citizens to pursue work they might otherwise not otherwise be able to. It allows for more flexibility in employment. People take more risks when they have the security of a guaranteed income, so more entrepreneurs start new businesses.

This is how artists should be doing #AltText!

A lovely scene is conjured both by the image and the accompanying alt text. I love descriptions like this.

Little libraries are my favourite!

@brucefanjoy.bsky.social thank you for presenting the petition to require all party leaders to have top level security clearance. This is something that is very important to me (and, apparently, to a good many others).

This is terrifying. The pace at which Project 2025 is being implemented is terrifying.

I think y'all have been underreacting on a multitude of fronts. I think the same is true for us here in Canada with book bans, anti-trans bills, the rich and powerful changing laws to avoid accountability. Americans are in a terrible place, and we are determined to follow.

This is a fair attitude.

I mean, the planet was waiting to see if the madman would flinch or launch a nuke for most of the day. That makes it difficult to focus.

We know. To all of you in the US, from those of us watching from the outside, it's actually worse than many of you realise.

To most people, that's pretty clear already.

I'm the daughter of an Army paratrooper who refused orders during our illegal invasion of Vietnam back in the day. He went to LBJ military jail.

Dad taught his girls this: "Just following orders" is NEVER any excuse for anyone who's complicit in war crimes. You MUST refuse heinous orders.

I think it's irresponsible not to take it seriously. Even if he doesn't act of every wild threat he makes, he acts on enough that you never know. He's erratic and unpredictable.

This is what the entire world is thinking, but the handful of people who could do something about this won't.

America, every single day before 2025: "We need to have all these guns in case the government become tyrannical and we need to overthrow it!"

America, since 2025: "We are powerless against the government."

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it.

This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

The 25th amendment was made for exactly this. Do something!!!! -The World

It has always been fuckin weird that some of y’all police what toilet space people are allowed to shit / piss in when y’all don’t even criminalize the sexual violences you claim a) to care about or b) allegedly are “prevented” (they’re not) by bio sex binary dividing said spaces.

I haven't been on here for a bit. I was glad to come back and see Epstein still trending because we cannot let up on this. Then I saw why it was trending. This is bullshit.

The War On Iran Has Four Possible Outcomes Only one of these four paths protects humanity—the other three are likely destroy it

"The war on Iran has four possible outcomes."

What do you think? Are these four outcomes plausible? Is there any other plausible outcome ? What do you think is going to happen?

Are YOU protesting?
Are YOU contacting your reps?

Love to Glasgow tonight ❤️ please dig out some decent ffp2 masks if you're going to be in the centre for the next week (if you're not already masking). That amount of smoke will be causing breathing problems in healthy people, as well as babies, older people and those with respiratory conditions.

Condemn Carney’s musings about dispatching troops to Iran Prime Minister Carney is boosting the warmongers in the US and Israel. On Wednesday Carney suggested Canada might consider dispatching troops to assist Trump and Netanyahu’s war of aggression on Iran ...

I wish every woman and AFAB person had the safety and self-assurance to stand up for themselves like this. Direct and calm, holding men and the systems of the patriarchy to account.

I read books both ways, and some are definitely more suited to one form or the other. Reading is reading, even if you do it with your ears!

And this is why I am supporting the NDP because I have actual principles.

His ego and greed can't abide the competition.

Suicide is not the answer!! I promise you if you think no one would care if you are gone that’s not true. In Canada you can call 988 for immediate support. ❤️

Auston Matthews cannot support a President who wants to annex Canada 🇨🇦 and captain a Canadian team. What the fuck are the Leafs doing?

I'm hearing chatter that the Mexican government may open an inquiry into hostile troll farms. Canada and the EU need to get on this, too. It's mostly just unverified noise right now, but the idea is solid. trolls suck
