Apologists for fascists will get theirs, mostly because they will be tossed away for being too weak if fascistic governments ever gain power.

@ai6yr @ATLeagle @AccordionBruce Let’s hope that this is a spur to USian’s actively resisting this abomination.

American Congress members.
Please get stuffed.
And plugged.

@bmacDonald94 There was a short story written about 1969 that asserted “Incompetence is the mother of invention”. Dolphins don’t need the technological monstrosity that we rely on.

@petrillic Funny how the “Slacker Generation” turned into the “Indispensable” generation.

CBC just called for a Liberal government. Not sure if Minority or Majority. Running over 50% of vote, which is remarkable.

“There was no representative from the United States, which is the leading member of NATO.

‘This is the moment when Europe must throw its full weight behind Ukraine, and itself,’Macron told the meeting, according to the Élysée”

@aral @forse Thanks for this. It’s going to be in my slide deck for my class, today. Most are trying to be kind, but some haven’t figured out that the new status quo can consume them, too.

@aral Which raises the questions: How many untriggered devices are still out there? How secure are battery supply-chains? How did Israel get access?

@aral
Well that answers a couple of questions: Yes there are more booby-trapped devices out there, and Israel has access to the battery supply chain.

The only good news is that they apparently haven’t figured out a way to make standard batteries explode.

Anyone know what make/model of batteries were compromised?

@SloanStudio @thomasfuchs LOL. During Quebec’s FLQ October Crisis, in 1970, several hundred people were arrested, mostly because they were critical of the government. The cops found a book on Cubism in someone’s home and tried to use it to claim the owner was in cahoots with Fidel Castro. SMDH.

“Do I ghost her again?” Québec government sends wrong email to journalist enquiries about housing as a human right.

Every Québec government reaches the hear/speak-no-evil & vacuous policies stage just before the electorate kick them to the curb. The CAQ’s uppance on housing has come, with that of language, education, and immigration in hot pursuit.

@jimcarroll I’ve been thinking about this since my 30’s. I don’t want to do a job where the objective is to make enough money to quit. By and large, I have done that. This means, however, that I have to keep working until I leave this mortal coil. But I have fun!
