It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.

So elegant, even in repose
I see and I hear and I speak no evil; I carry no malice within my breast; yet quite without wishing a man to the Devil one may be permitted to hope for the best. -“An Ethical Grook” by Piet Hein

We have just as many disturbed people in Canada but they're just not as well armed so far fewer school shootings.
Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.

“This means the province gave Therme a passing grade mostly based on the expected earnings of the unbuilt German spa, which has been mired in delays and cost overruns” and that, compounding the chain of destruction the Ontario Place spa plan has brought, one day this terrible idea will be a musical.

Of every 1,000 children born in Kenya, 32 don’t make it to their first birthdays. A new stumbled onto a straightforward solution: Giving $1,000 to poor families lowered infant mortality rates by nearly half, and deaths in children under 5 by 45 percent. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/h...

Trump's bottomlessly idiotic sabotage of the energy transition in the US could not be more succinctly summarized:

Relaxation as art.
And per @ritholtz.bsky.social , no forecast, no market prognosticator can predict what will happen when you put one single person in charge of everything and allow him to do whatever he wants. I am now referring to this as the One Fucking Guy Theory
I’m just here to bring some smiles and positivity to your timeline... 😊 You’re welcome #bluesky
'He stole her': Trump degrades Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre. She wasn't property. “Claiming a 16-year-old girl who fell into the hands of sex traffickers was stolen from you is the kind of thinking that makes sex trafficking possible.” My column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
We’re at Toronto City Council today to watch the vote on RapidTO dedicated lanes on Dufferin and Bathurst! Hoping for a good outcome, but either way, we’ll be watching 👀

I think people aren't describing the Emil Bove corruption adequately. He blew off an order from a judge SO THAT he could send hundreds of mostly innocent men to a concentration camp, based on false claims of gang ties.
It's the truest thing he's ever said. He cared about no one.

Love her little feets.
They’re closing hospitals to open concentration camps.
This year it feels more like the Farce of July.
“So the president wants to install paramilitaries in all our cities to run his ethnic cleansing program” “No big deal” “But there’s a guy running for mayor of NYC who wants free buses” *guns drawn* “This is a five alarm fire. Only our finest anonymous Nazis can handle this”
why did this make me laugh
i think they’re being overly optimistic regarding the canine literacy rate

BREAKING: Trump starts LIFTING sanctions on Russian banks. Unbelievable. Just after Putin launched Russia's biggest air assault on Ukrainian civilians, Trump lifts restrictions on some of the Russian banks closest to him. And all done while America sleeps. An Oval Office, Kremlin-compromised.

This cracked me up! I always enjoy reading @lyz.bsky.social but this was next-level. Thank you for your writing.

Oh

Since everything is awful, please enjoy this bear who disassembled my squirrel-proof bird feeder this morning, emptied the full tube of seeds into her (?) mouth, then came back a little later, as if going back for a 2nd plate from the all-you-can eat Bottomless Brunch Buffet.S/he sweetly ambled off.
Funny thing is, these bears usually come *only* at night, to minimize chances of encountering humans. But this one stood for a long while in front of my kitchen window, making pointed eye contact at 11am on a Sunday...as if to say "What are you waiting for? Make with the refills. Chop, chop!"

And still. This pleases me
… ‘cause gardens are therapy and offices are over-rated.
I wonder how many people realize that America is now literally at war *solely* because Trump hates black people Obama signed the Iran Nuclear Deal; Iran stopped enrichment; Trump ended the Deal to spite Obama; he was told enrichment would restart; it did This is *Trump’s* war
I keep waiting for someone to tell me, “Yeah, I was a fruit picker until those undocumented immigrants showed up.”

Beautiful!
Ask yourself: If Donald Trump was a thinly-veiled Russian asset, can you name one thing he’d be doing differently?

I think she gets free filler for every deportation.
Eventually found my problem was with my hip flexors. Exercises to focusing on releasing my tight hip flexors was key. Also always wear good arch support footwear. Birkenstocks and Oofos are great.
Toronto’s youth deserve more than just a place to be, argues @lanrickbennett.bsky.social - they need "third spaces" where they can shape their own sociability and recreation. The City can help create those spaces. spacing.ca/toronto/2025...
In April, President Trump and Salvadoran President Bukele shook hands in the Oval Office to celebrate a deal to ship gang members to the notorious CECOT prison. But a new ProPublica investigation found there’s more to the story. 🧵👇
