@wjmaggos he's fine. Now is the time for safe choices.The NDP party is the actual "liberal" ie left-left party but I'm ok with rallying behind the center-left (for Canada) Liberal party right now.Note he's just replacing Trudeau who chose to step down. This wasn't an actual election. But that will happen soon.

@ben Some of the MAGA talking points I have come across on Reddit:* Canada gets all the benefits of being a state (????) so should not have the ability to levy tariffs* Since Canada's economy relies on trade with the US it's not a "real" country* Canada has had over a 100 years to "prove" it's a real country and not done it so it should default to part of the USA (???!?)#canada #USpol

@ben Who wants to tell them that Canadian PROVINCES don't even have absolutely free trade between them...

Just remembering like 17-18 years ago being at #SxSw and hearing about this new thing called Twitter that was supposed to let your servers tell you when they go down but you could, like, also tell people what talks and parties were cool. It might even catch on. It's gonna be so great!#twitter #sxsw #falseNostalgia

@andymoose @adiz @ben Is your reply lacking some context or nuance of tone I am missing or should I just block you?

I had to learn a lot about parliamentary government when studying for Canadian citizenship so I have all the passion of the recently-converted but I think we're all getting a lesson on which is the superior* approach right now. *Not perfect, of course. And I'm still holding my breath for the Canadian election.#USpol #government #canpoli

I love Canada for a lot of reasons but petty, passive aggressive moves like this make me proud.#canada #USpol

Every single major news outlet in the world has a massive headline about the US Stock market disaster. This is what is above-the-fold on fox news.#USpol #news #media

@shlee My totally unscientific theory is that having them at the bottom forces readers to engage with the conversation before adding their hot take. But that might just be me.

Why hasn't this made more national news? I only see articles in Vermont media?"A gay Vermont school superintendent says he was detained, separated from his husband, and subjected to hours of abusive questioning in Texas by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers while returning from a trip to Nicaragua "“They falsely stated that I, a U.S. citizen, have no constitutional rights at a point of entry"https://www.advocate.com/news/vermont-gay-citizen-detained-cbp#USpol #lgbtqia tqia

Yes, it's a screenshot of a Reddit post of a screenshot of a Tumblr post, but it's still a good point.

@GottaLaff I had the scroll back up to see if this shooting was the same or a different one (different! Other one is a university in Utah).

@futurebird When I was little my father told me he bought me some shares but I heard "chairs". For years I thought the stock market was a furniture company with warehouses full of chairs and some had my name on them. Like a memorial bench you see in the park. Honestly, makes much more sense than the reality.
