It's Labour Day and my labour is writing and publishing books. Here's our latest, a work of fiction about a dystopian island of free-for-all occultists. It's getting rave reviews! And our first book available in hardcover! Link below.

A very special happy birthday for the most kind, caring, compassionate and hard working person I've ever known. How such a tiny human being could hold such depths, and contribute so much to the world is astounding. I am beyond lucky to be her partner.

@KathleenBurt55 Last I checked the provincial credit unions rates/fees suck, and their services are quite limited. The real solution is for government to exercise some measure of control of the big banks who actually control the bulk of finance and have the scale to deliver.

They're shutting down the only bank for an hour and a half drive. Why? Pure greed. They're incredibly profitable. The most basic thing gov could do, would be to threaten new fees and taxes if they went ahead with shut downs. But governments don't believe in governing anymore.

If I could go back in time to live part of my life over again, screw all that stuff about investing in stocks. (Had no money to invest anyhow!) I'd go back to meet @jmkeep earlier, so I'd have more time with her.

@Seanrade Didn't they) liberals end up doing some postal banking in the form of predatory loans from the big banks merely channeled through Canada Post? Leave it to them to turn a good idea to shit

@JEKeep Postal banking would be a great option, too bad Canada Post lacks the will to consider it. CUPW has been advocating it for some time.

@DeanBalloch Our experience with pregnancy was so awful. Had to go so far for services that were then over burdened. No support. We're a diseased society. (If you want an invite code to the new blue site lemme know FYI)

Wild what creatives can accomplish when actually supported, and not bled dry and rotated out regularly as if interchangeable cogs.

Interesting. But I think the reality is, as one trauma therapist put it to me: only ~5% of our life is really under our control. But that doesn't make it hopeless or pointless to exercise control, we should really take care with that 5% that's ours. latimes.com/science/stor...

Never going to forget that every single member of parliament stood up and applauded a member of the SS, the most vile group in history, out of an astonishing amount of ignorance. Or a shameless desire to just go along. Not a single one above the level of an insufferable twitterer

Me, a commercial smut peddler of erotica, has infinitely more artistic integrity than some "AI" loser. I would never sink so low as to not only use some plagiarism machine, but call the results my own.

You stand before the tribunal. Me, singing to @jmkeep: "You're soooo good! You're the best there is!" Her, singing along with me, but to Laszlo. Laszlo, staring at me, waiting for a treat.

This. It was a Soviet-legacy hotbed of nationalists and communists, but when Yeltsin forcibly closed it down, he broke the constitution, and the West cheered him. We ignored the fundamental truth: if you want democracy you have to accept that sometimes the guys you don't like win
Paul Goode (@jpaulgoode.bsky.social)@jpaulgoode

30 years ago, Russia's elected president and parliament both attempted to seize power. Yeltsin rolled out the tanks. A super-presidential constitution followed in December. Democrats abandoned Yeltsin, who turned to oligarchs for support and put Russia on the path to autocracy.

@davemccarthy707 Having studied wars of the 20th century for a long time, I can safely say that western governments main takeaway from them was: control the message more tightly, and propagandized harder. You can make people support a pointless losing war for ages if you do.

Every western politician is coming out of the woodworks with their own deranged misinterpretations or outright lies about history these days. It's unreal.
Secretary Antony Blinken@SecBlinken

Eighty-two years ago, Nazis murdered 34,000 Jews at Babyn Yar. Soviets buried this history, which today Putin's government manipulates to provide cover for Russia's abuses in Ukraine. The U.S. is committed to justice for Holocaust survivors and accountability for atrocities.

@kavs86 As we head into a new Cold War and climate catastrophe... The political spectrum in the US and Canada now runs from Nazi to Nazi apologist. What could go wrong?
