Unlike Bluesky, the Fediverse is truly decentralised and not controlled by capitalist Americans. https://jointhefediverse.net Join us today! I prefer quokk.au personally. I'm a potty mouthed leftist from Alberta, but much less active on this platform.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

"Canada cannot claim to defend human rights while exporting armoured vehicles that will be used to terrorize communities”: @greenpeaceca.bsky.social calls on MPs to halt export of armoured vehicles to U.S. immigration agency ICE www.greenpeace.org/canada/en/pr...

So an odd thing here is that if you say "an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume" your point is to communicate "it is not really Batman" but the problem is that the real Batman, within the fiction of the comic book "Batman", is also, literally, an unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume
An unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume angrily confronted Santa Clara city officials during a joint meeting of the City Council, city authorities, and the Santa Clara Stadium Authority on Monday, using his public comment to condemn the city’s stance on cooperation with ICE.

we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds
Among the batch of newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein: Epstein telling Peter Thiel he would “gladly share…expenses for the Gawker suit.” This was sent the day after @rmac.bsky.social and @mattdrange.bsky.social reported in Forbes that Thiel was behind the lawsuit that would bankrupt Gawker

How are you supposed to explain to people how this entire social, political, and economic reality is entirely downstream from anime getting banned on some dipshit's forum 25ish years ago
So apparently I was right to shittalk m00t this week because it's been revealed that his boneheaded decision to establish /pol/ and subsequently ruin the website was allegedly born out of a one-on-one meeting with Jeffery Epstein.

Frankly, more people should be mad at him. Not for creating 4chan but deciding to create a "containment board" for news/political threads and not deleting it when people vocally complained that it was full of Nazis who were always breaking containment.

Replying to @jtp.bsky.social
"I'm gonna give Homan the benefit of the doubt" "They should coordinate with local law enforcement, pick these people up in the middle of the night when they're not suspecting it" Walz is capitulating to fascists and encouraging night raids. Genuinely disgusting. Why would anyone settle for this?

Canada's true crisis is the everyday emergency of just trying to get by in an impossible economy. I’m running for NDP leader so we can transform a system rigged for the rich—together. We need a government that serves the many, not the money. Join in. lewisforleader.ca/ youtu.be/IVy99oiYszY

The incredibly lukewarm Democratic response on Greenland is being noticed in Europe, incidentally. Chuck Schumer not finding a stronger word than “quixotic” for Trump’s plan to seize Greenland has been name checked to me more than once.
But Americans who want to save the alliance with Europe must have no illusions about how bad a condition this transatlantic partnership is in.
