If buying doesn't create ownership, then pirating doesn't destroy it.

@Sea1Am @VeroniqueB99 Dude really set the bar… I’m glad those days are behind me. All I had to do was pop for a horse n’ carriage ride thru the park and a great dinner... phew

Wtf is happening?!

Happy Climate Change Canada Day! It feels like 48°C in Toronto and Mark Carney and Doug Ford want to build pipelines and F150s because lowering emissions is “divisive”.

Which would you prefer, division, or death?

“PIRATING” IS A CAPITALIST FRAME

don’t be a cop.

If buying isn't ownership then p̶i̶r̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ SHARING isn't stealing

If buying doesn't create ownership, then p̶i̶r̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ SHARING doesn't destroy it.

SHARING is anticapitalist and antifa because sharing is caring.

Hey Canadians. If you’re experiencing troublesome weather this Canada Day, you should sign this petition, and if you have already signed, thank you, please share it!

Petition to the Government of Canada
Whereas:
Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) plays a critical role in protecting Canadians through weather forecasting, severe weather warnings, climate monitoring and scientific research;

Canada is experiencing increasingly frequent and severe weather and climate related events, including wildfires, floods, atmospheric rivers, hurricanes, heat waves, winter storms and derechos;

Weather radar research, observation stations, Weatheradio services and frontline meteorological staff are essential public safety tools, particularly for rural, remote and Indigenous communities;

Recent and proposed reductions to ECCC staffing, research capacity, and public weather services risk weakening Canada’s ability to predict, monitor, and respond to dangerous weather events;

Reliable weather forecasting and climate science are vital to emergency preparedness, transportation safety, agriculture, marine operations and public confidence; and
Canadians deserve a strong, modern and fully supported public weather service.

We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to

1. Reverse cuts to Environment and Climate Change Canada that impact weather forecasting, meteorological research and climate science;

2. Restore and maintain Weatheradio and other accessible public alert systems;

3. Protect and expand weather observation and climate monitoring stations across Canada;
4. Ensure adequate staffing and long-term funding for ECCC programs, scientists, meteorologists and technical experts; and

5. Recognize weather forecasting and climate monitoring as essential public safety infrastructure.

#SeaWednesday

I know I missed a few Wednesdays, but I am back. I'm sorry.

Okay, lol, I'm not going share this link. I wanted to see what the Canada Day stage looked like this year (I assume they're using Lebreton Flats again?) and know it's always live streamed. Searching for a live stream brought me to a YouTube stream with a curious title:

"LIVE: 🇨🇦 Canada Day Parade 2026 | Epic Military Review & National Celebration in Ottawa Full 4K"

Parade? Military review? What's Canada Day got to do with military, lol?! Snowbirds maybe. There's a parade? Whhhhaaa?

As you may have guessed already, yes - it's one of several AI generated slop channels on YouTube pretending to show a large scale parade down Wellington Street.

Here's a screenshot of what the celebrations in Ottawa absolutely do NOT look like today.

Wishing a very happy Canada Day to all Canadians and aspiring-Canadians!

(So very happy to have you as neighbors, and we're very sorry.)

Right now, the only thing holding back most police from deploying armed drones and robots is the policies of companies and the social stigma surrounding the issue. Neither of these will hold forever. We need regulation. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/06/lawmakers-must-act-now-prevent-armed-police-drones

#Trump actions signal a move toward #institutionalizing people with #disabilities

For decades, #disabled people have fought for their #rights to go to school & live alongside peers without disabilities — rights that some fear could be losing ground under Trump.

Last month, the Dept of #Education announced it would shift oversight of #SpecialEducation to #HHS, led by #RFKJr, whose comments on disabilities such as autism are 🦇💩.

Meanwhile, after a #Trump White House push to #police #homelessness, the #DOJ released guidance that lowered the barrier to #institutionalizing any person with a #disability.

Taken together, the actions signal a worrying return to a reality where people with #disabilities are pushed to the margins of society, advocates said.

1028 died in Spain, in one month, due to capitalist-created #canicule hitting Europe this summer.

Europe has 50 countries. 27 of those countries are in the European Union.

let’s use Spain as a baseline and low-ball the number down to 1000. that means that anywhere between 27 to 50,000 europeans might have been killed IN ONE MONTH by the #petromafia #climateCrisis

Has Oprah ever apologized for drs phil and oz?

If you actually want to do something helpful boycott AI.

Transphobes want to push trans issues out of the social sphere (equal rights) and into the clinical (mental illness) while rejecting what the psychiatric community already determined: that trans people aren't mentally ill and transitioning is the best care possible. The goal has always been conversion therapy and extermination, the same as the Nazis.
