No no no begs every archivist. You are never going to be able to find anything. Please don’t start using emojis in file names. Who asked for this? What fresh hell is next?

So I'm just catching up on things, you're telling me that the guy who has had literally one job in his entire life - federal MP - just up and forgot to move the most important amendment the opposition leader moves? Yeah, Pierre Poilievre won't be leader long. He's rattled.

If you are posting on or engaging with content on X, you are working as a volunteer laborer helping this specific man earn money and political influence.

Any person, group or organisation that is still there and helping keep you there: you have to make them get out, not give them reason to stay

Also symbolic of how they treat artists in Ottawa: Imagine what the $4M would have bought in local art, displayed at a human scale throughout the area. Oh and this outcome was predicted at the time by artists in Ottawa.

They were pretty sure I owed them GST for a company that I no longer owned and who had already paid them, on time. The agent suggested I still make the quarterly payment and "it would all work out". 🫠

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Montréal this weekend: 2 major bridges closed, tunnel closed, 30K marathon runners blocking streets, and Monday impeding transit strike + trucker protests slowing traffic from 5-9am. Finally going to try that café 10 min from my house I've never been to 😂 #ClassicMontreal

Tell Carney: We don’t want Trump-style borders & surveillance state! Sign this petition to defend our human rights and privacy

We all breathed a sigh of relief when the country rejected the Maple MAGA politics of Pierre Poilievre. So why does this bill feel like it was written by him?

This divisive piece of legislation has already passed its second reading—we need to voice our concerns NOW.

Tom Mulcair: Mark Carney’s Liberals are swinging right with no guardrail left In the Jack Layton era, the NDP saw itself as the ‘conscience of Parliament.’ Former NDP leader Tom Mulcair says that conscience is mostly a memory now; and the Liberals are having a 'grand old time ...

Says the guy who single handedly moved the Overton window in Canadian politics *to the right* in his tenure as the social democratic leader?!

That's a bit rich. Oh no wait: the rich is ... who Tom catered to as leader, business elites and Outremont snobs.

BWI has an art display that celebrates America’s earliest civil rights leaders. I found this quilt pretty amazing. It celebrates Frederick Douglass and more.

This is a useful provocation. Doxxing actions taking collectively should be about abuses of power and real infliction of harm in a social context, not just what's unpopular (or, let's be real, entertaining) to a bunch of folks online.

Indigenous-led data centre in Alberta slated for development amid AI infrastructure boom | CBC News Woodland Cree First Nation is in the process of acquiring an abandoned power plant site for its data centre. If successful, it would be one of the first Indigenous-led data centres in the province.

"It would generate a total of 650 megawatts of on-site natural gas power, with a grid backup, as required by the Alberta Energy Systems Operator."

It's not a great location for a sovereign data center, it sounds like just an excuse to develop more natural gas extraction 🤷 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
