Don't forget the genocide in Gaza that our government is actively supporting

Sandy and Nora talk politics is a really well made podcast that has daily clips around 8 minutes that highlight important news stories that are often underreported

I misunderstood your original comment and it was my bad. I apologize. Sorry! I've been spending too much time on the Bad Site and its killed my ability to see comments on the internet without immediately thinking judgy things about people. I hope my apology can revive a bit of hope and trust into this community. Sorry for being a shithead!

Its just that I fail to see how mentioning that the new Premiere's First Nations heritage is problematic. Its incredibly relevant from a newsworthiness perspective. The #SearchTheLandfill movement has been absolutely villainized by the PC party, and now they've been replaced by a party led by someone from a First Nations community.

Also, Manitoba has a significant history with First Nations communities, the province literally owes its origin to Louis Riel, who was Metis, and the fact that the first indigenous Premiere didn't arrive until 2023 is highly newsworthy and historic

I use it pretty heavily for tracking books that I want to read in the future. I follow multiple people who share similar tastes to me, and so I'm able to find a lot of really awesome books just by seeing what they're reading.

I'm going to start a petition to make Christians stop saying that they follow Jesus. Caring for property above the needs of the unhoused is blasphemy.

I'm not gonna lie, I tried it out of sheer curiosity

Fascist is also what humanity uses to refer to actual fascism, which is having a pretty unfortunate resurgence at the moment. Its not just referring to tyranny.

Hey so as someone who is 35 and has survived massive flooding and a heat dome, the "its not something we'll have to worry about" line doesn't really make sense when I think about getting old and experiencing things like dementia or limited mobility in a world at 1.75 degrees warming

Honestly, good for them. Sure, it's probably inconvenient for the fans and athletes, but we are living through an unprecedented catastrophe and more attention needs to be paid to the fact that fossil fuels are the main culprit.
