Funny thing is, I hate 98% of all vegetables. They literally make me ill. But I can eat marmite all day long. Go figure.

Don’t forget Marmite. I can eat that straight out of the bottle. Yum.

Then the Smithsonian is no longer a museum it’s a propaganda machine no longer to be trusted.

Yup, scares the heck out of me. Guess other don’t agree. I am getting downvoted.

I’m still trying to figure out The timeline of when it switched from ice age to global warming. Most likely after scientists figured out the real reason.

There will be no headline. I am just a plebe.

I am almost 70. I am very anecdotal, I understand.

In the 80’s after the fake energy scare (gas shortage one) that was all over the news saying we will have an ice age and other lies by the government I no longer listened or believed a word they said.

I tried to tell friends, family and anyone else I could (I was all pumped up after watching Carl Sagan’s Cosmos and his dire message) that we have to take better care of the planet etc. I was laughed at, told to shut the fuck up you stupid hippie and other such stuff. I gave up trying. Did my own thing to help a bit. Never bought new anything like cars, clothes, tech etc. Still the same to this day.

I see the same thing now by the majority of young folks and most others just like back in the day.

Hopefully at some point there will be a major shift in people’s thinking about our planet …

 

Zelensky for the win.

⚠️ Warning: EMERGENCY ALERT ⚠️

A 34 time convicted felon and rapist is loose in Canada. He is old and delusional and may have lost his way. Hopefully he will be apprehended and arrested as soon as he is spotted.

Do not approach (hide yo wife, hide yo kids) or he may try to deport you.

 

This asshat needs to be gone yesterday.

 

Would not catch me dead in the US right now

 

'When conservatives lose their principles, Ontario loses its way,'

 

I am old, I am new to Lemmy. Not sure if this allowed but IMO it is really important. This is from the Reddit post by user SaveDnet-FRed0. If this is not allowed downvote and I will remove. I also agree with what he has to say. He also says it better than I could anyhoo.

Titled “We can never judge Americans again if Bill 5 goes unopposed by the people of Ontario.”

“Bill 5 is going to screw us if it doesn't get some serious overhaul. We're talking a roll back of fundamental labor protections.

To name just a few sources that highlight this: https://ofl.ca/materials/submission-re-bill-5-protect-ontario-by-unleashing-our-economy-act-2025/2025-05-26-oflsubmission-bill5/

Are there also major problems with how it treats the environment and indigenous rights? Yep. But guess what won't piss off the people enough to move their collective asses: The environment and indigenous rights.

That's why they're highlighting these issues. They're hoping the noise of it will drown out things that would unite the majority of Canadians. I'm not saying they're not important. I'm saying Ford knows exactly how to play the people. Environment and Indigenous relations instantly turns this to liberal v conservative. No. Fuck that. It's a damn trap. You want to fight this bill? Highlight the thing that will piss every worker in Ontario off.

We need to move against this. We need to organize a protest that is more than just waving some signs. We need to pick a work day when these ass hats are in office and stare them down so it's actually mildly disruptive. I know that's not easy. I know that's a risk. That's the point.

If we can't do this, we need to shut the fuck up and sit down when other people mock Americans for not fixing their government. If we can't mobilize against this in a meaningful way, we are just as apathetic and ineffective.”
