  A remnant giant from the ancient forest. I walk the forest paths. Often these are just deer trails my dogs have found. Sometimes there are treasures on these trails. This is the largest “wild” (not protected, not in a park or other set-aside) tree I’ve ever found. It’s a mystery to me why this giant was left standing when neighbours were felled. That was 100 years ago, so no one to ask. Instead of knowing, I stand in awe. This tree may be 700-1000 years old. Rare for Douglas Firs in this regi...

  “American society’s use of Civil War to rhetorically veil the slaveholders’ rebellion has consequences. After the redemption of the Confederacy, ex-Confederates and their heirs helped create a regime of anti-Black violence by instituting a legal architecture of disenfranchisement and lynching. That is what makes confronting how we refer to the Civil War a civic imperative.” #uspoli #slavery #jan6 https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/02/opinion/civil-war-slaveholders-rebellion-slavery.html?utm_source...

  There is no invisible hand. There is just the hubris of oligarchs wearing Mr. Smith’s now tattered garments.

  RE: https://mstdn.social/@mtlgazette/116998664450519939 🏒🥅🇨🇦Hockey fans in Canada, your thoughts? Sportsnet is increasing fees, and reducing access by selling Weds nights (and some playoff series’) to Amazon. First they get rid of public, free access to HNIC on CBC TV, eliminate their sports radio in Vancouver and Calgary. Now this. #nhl #hockey #hnom #media #streaming @hnom@fedigroups.social

  ♂️ “Over the past several decades, a new disorder has taken root among boys and young men – muscle dysmorphia. It’s characterised by the conviction that one’s body is not muscular or lean enough, no matter how large or defined it is. From the outside, it might look like an issue rooted in lack of body confidence or poor self-esteem, but there is something more profound going on.” #menshealth #masculinity #Men @menshealth@fedigroups.social https://psyche.co/ideas/why-some-men-seek-refuge-in-eve...

  “The electorate appears to want something more substantive from their elected officials than grievance, fear mongering, and culture wars.” There used to be a “substantive” Canadian conservatism. That was before Mulrooney hitched our wagon to the free trade mania (and certainly bears no resemblance to the monstrosity created by Harper’s forced marriage of Reform+Progressive Conservatives).
