“GOP senator to introduce bill to sanction Canada over wildfire smoke” Good luck with that… “The lawmakers threatened that the United States may send its agencies into Canada to manage the problem if Canadian officials don't address it more vigorously.” Like fuck you will. This ain’t Venezuela, asshole…

No, it is not…🤬 “It&#39;s NOT a Coincidence the States redrawing Voting Maps to suppress Black voters are the SAME ones that fought to keep slavery.”

I hate Ryan Gosling… I just wanted to say that upfront. I think he's a boring actor with zero emotional range (BTW, I think the same of Keanu Reeves but I actually like Reeves' movies). I generally avoid Gosling's movies unless there's someone or something else compelling in it. In the case of Project Hail Mary, the premise (as shown in the trailers) was good enough for me to swallow my hatred of Gosling and watch the movie last night. https://doamm.com/2026/04/12/i-hate-ryan-g...

“U.S. Rejects Vote to Recognize Slavery as a ‘Crime Against Humanity’” &quot;Dan Negrea, a U.S. representative to the U.N.’s Economic and Social Council, accused the sponsors of questioning President Trump’s support for Black voters in the United States. “President Trump has done more for Black Americans than any other president,” he said.” Oh….fuck ALL the way off… https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/25/world/africa/un-slave-trade-vote-us-ghana-israel.html?campaign_id=9&amp;emc=edit_nn_2...

“Barack Obama Reacts to Donald Trump’s AI Video Depicting Him as an Ape: ‘There Doesn’t Seem to Be Any Shame About This’” No offense to President Obama but… JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! WILL YOU GROW A SET, PLEASE! If some asshole insults me and my wife by portraying us as racial stereotypes, it SHOULD get at least a verbal beat down! https://variety.com/2026/digital/news/barack-obama-reacts-donald-trump-ai-ape-video-1236663606/

“…stunned by the loyalty of the poor.” This is an idea that has always blown my mind. There are more of &quot;us&quot; than there are of &quot;them.&quot; So why do we kowtow to their needs, wants, and desires? https://doamm.com/2026/02/15/stunned-by-the-loyalty-of-the-poor/

“Meta to challenge Apple with its first smartwatch — and it&#39;s reportedly launching this year” How close to zero do you think the odds are this will challenge Apple in any way, shape or form? https://www.tomsguide.com/wellness/smartwatches/meta-to-challenge-apple-with-its-first-smartwatch-and-its-reportedly-launching-this-year

Trump: “Prime Minister Carney wants to make a deal with China…The first thing China will do is terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup.&quot; America - at why point do you admit this man is not well? He&#39;s either mentally unfit for the job or he’s just *remarkably* STUPID. Either way, he shouldn&#39;t be in charge of the most powerful country in the world.

@gedeonm@mastodon.social @christianselig@mastodon.social It's sad/funny how often that happens. I got banned for life in similar circumstances a few years ago. Their loss. :)
