I write a little about a lot. - Politics (Canadian mostly), 2SLGBTQ+, and Weird Geekiness ... because.

Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights @ccfr-ccdaf.bsky.social • 1h •• WILD: A West Kelowna man says he disarmed a couple after they flashed a handgun at him at a pool on Saturday. "My survival instincts kicked in. There were 2 threats. I neutralized the threats until the cops showed up." In Liberal Canada, everyone has a gun ...except law-abiding citizens. #cdnpoli

We, the undersigned, People of Canada, call upon the House of Commons in Parliament assembled to invoke its authority under Section 53 of the Supreme Court Act to refer the constitutionality of Alberta’s Justice Statutes Amendment Act, 2025 to the Supreme Court of Canada, and to direct the Foreign Influence Transparency Commissioner to immediately investigate the meetings between the Alberta Prosperity Project and the Trump administration.

The standard of reasonable grounds to believe is greater than reasonable suspicion but less than on a balance of probabilities when the totality of the circumstances are considered.[3] It is also greater than "[m]ere suspicion, conjecture, hypothesis or ‘fishing expeditions’."[4]

Note to Mark Carney, Keep poking POTUS in the eye. All it would take is a phone call from Scott Bessent to Moody's Fitch and Standard & Poor and Canada gets downgraded to a C+ credit rating overnight. Mark Carney, you are literally a mouse biting an elephants toe nail. Grow up or see what will be left of Canada completely destroyed As it is, thanks to you, Alberta is leaving. As Alberta independence climbs in the polls, Canada's credit rating will slide. Good luck with that.

Trans elders: I wish I'd been able to transition as a teen Trans adults: I wish I'd been able to transition as a teen Trans teens: I wish I could transition right now Trans kids: I hope I can transition when I'm a teen Cis people: We know what's best for you, sorry, so no.
Janis Irwin On Monday, we expect the UCP government to introduce another bill that will invoke the use of the notwithstanding clause. Last time it was teachers who were the target. This time? The trans community. Some will say the UCP are doing it to distract so that we don't talk about chaos in healthcare or their corruption scandal. Whatever their motives, they are once again willing to violate charter rights. This cannot be normalized. We must be loud, Alberta. For trans rights. For human rights.
Excerpt from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_Eve The definition of Mitochondrial Eve is fixed, but the woman in prehistory who fits this definition can change. That is, not only can our knowledge of when and where Mitochondrial Eve lived change due to new discoveries, but the actual Mitochondrial Eve can change. The Mitochondrial Eve can change, when a mother-daughter line comes to an end. It follows from the definition of Mitochondrial Eve that she had at least two daughters who both have unbroken female lineages that have survived to the present day. In every generation mitochondrial lineages end – when a woman with unique mtDNA dies with no daughters. When the mitochondrial lineages of daughters of Mitochondrial Eve die out, then the title of "Mitochondrial Eve" shifts forward from the remaining daughter through her matrilineal descendants, until the first descendant is reached who had two or more daughters who together have all living humans as their matrilineal descendants. Once a lineage has died out it is irretrievably lost and this mechanism can thus only shift the title of "Mitochondrial Eve" forward in time.[49] Because mtDNA mapping of humans is very incomplete, the discovery of living mtDNA lines which predate our current concept of "Mitochondrial Eve" could result in the title moving to an earlier woman. This happened to her male counterpart, "Y-chromosomal Adam", when an older Y line, haplogroup A-00, was discovered.

Social security runs on COBOL which does not use a date or time type, so the date is stored as a number using the ISO 8601 standard. The epoch for this is 150 years ago (1875)

Brianna Wu: We had a paradise. There was literally no civilization in history where it was better to be trans. Access to healthcare was better than we ever could have imagined. And in 10 years, the progressive fringe took it so far now the republicans are dismantling it all and normal people are cheering them. The Riffler: Full well knowing that I am a cishet man I still need to say that if you blame anybody other than republicans for what's going on, you are fucking stupid and you are fucking evil
