The mobilization itself was already not something I ever expected to see, but to actually win? Hell, to double the winning margin from the 2022 runoff? Genuinely surreal. Maybe child raping billionaires *don't* have to run the world with a shit-eating grin. Maybe that can stop.

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

Something big has been happening this week, and with all the news happening, you probably didn’t hear about it. MPs from every federal party except the Liberals and Conservatives have banded together — and they’re sounding the alarm about Carney's destructive policies:

If I had known what a difference an N95 and air purifier could make in my overall health, I would have used them before Covid. A respirator keeps me from getting sicker. An air purifier reduces allergies, dust and MCAS symptoms. We should want these tools in public spaces.

Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. In 2025, he made 1,794x more. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers? I will continue my boycott of Starbucks.

I am so sick and tired of corporate media obsessing about made-up bullshit while people can’t afford to eat.

our entire global financial system is currently leveraged to the hilt on the premise that it was good and right for a small cadre of US companies to steal all of the intellectual work ever produced by humanity and sell its back to us without credit or remuneration to the authors (plagiarism)

Begging folks to wake up and realize that the massive increase in food borne illness and infectious diseases is not an accident. This was always the goal. The regime removed protections because they want “the vulnerable” to die. Fascism and eugenics go hand in hand.

It's interesting how everything people used to proudly call "public" when I was growing up (public parks, public libraries, public schools, public transportation, public television, etc) is suddenly "socialist" now that rich people are spinning it.

One last thing: I often see people saying things like ‘never talk to the police without a lawyer’ and a lot of people don’t have lawyers and are like, what should I do? The answer is that you should not talk to the police at all.

Krissy just spent $10 on a bag of cherries, got them home and half were rotten. That's 2026 for you: Everything's expensive and nothing is good.

Everybody talks about how nothing is affordable anymore but no one talks about how poorly made and disposable things are. Part of the affordability crisis is because we keep repurchasing things, cars, appliances, clothes etc because things don’t last.

Having poor people starve is a failure as a species! We are a failed experiment! If you think it’s ok for one person to be worth $1 trillion dollars as the world starved, then we must conclude we are an evil species!

As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.
