in case you didn’t know, butter pecan ice cream exists because Black people in the South weren’t allowed to eat vanilla ice cream in public..because it was white ... so they added butter nd some pecans to it to make it acceptable for them to eat in public. Just a little reminder on this Juneteenth,and remember that, when you’re eating butter pecan ice cream: the thousands of different acts of resistance, both great nd small, that black folks have had to use to overcome the scourge of white supremacy always ...

Too on point not to share, β€œAussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us. Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage. You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail. Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates. Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you. And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again. And you're calling Greenland poorly run? Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no. "NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years. And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess. So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author πŸ“· unknown”

Dear Albertan Separatists, Leaving Canada means losing immediately: β€’ Constitutional access to Canada’s internal market β€’ All trade deals (USMCA, EU, Asia: treaties don’t carry over) β€’ Bank of Canada backstop β†’ higher interest rates β€’ Federal health, infrastructure, disaster & EI stabilization funding. (No maternity leave benefits, EI, sick benefits, ect) β€’ Charter mobility rights β†’ You don’t have the right to move around Canada freely: borders, visas, work permits β€’ Defence, intelligence, protection (billions to replace) β€’ Legal & regulatory certainty markets require. β€’ Automatic continuity of Indigenous treaties (nation-to-nation with the Crown, UN ect) Who benefits from selling this fantasy? Outrage politicians. Media grifters. Click farmers. Foreign disinfo networks. Independence doesn’t remove risk. It concentrates it. Now answer this. Trade deals take years to finalize. Does Danielle Smith have one, even one trade agreement lined up?

Snl nailed this. What’s been their reality for a week has been ours for generations.
A lot of ppl aren’t sickened or fatigued with the state of America until white people are tragically victims of it.

Funny how ppl comment on economic matters with no historical context! PM ChrΓ©tien cleaned up Mulroney’s $ 43 billion deficit in 3 yrs..PM Martin left a $13 billion surplus for Harper which he blew in his first year and left a $55 billion deficit in 2015. Those are the facts.

Why I won't vote for Pierre Poilievre (Yes I will shut off my comments because it's my account and my choice I don't need to listen to the same argument over and over got it the first time).

So very proud of the Annapolis Valley’s own Jeff Douglas who played β€œJoe Canada” in the classic ad β€œI am Canadian” that aired in March 2000. Jeff is back, and he’s put a modern spin on the old ad that perfectly sums up the mood here in Canada. Very proud to be Canadian every single day! πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

I just popped in to Musk's hellsite to say: Canadians will be staying 100% Canadian, thank you very much! The USA is welcome to become the 11th province if they want, but we won't tolerate unregulated assault riffles and dead school children. #Canada #cdnpoli #cdnpolitics #USA
