If you launch a war—that includes, on the very first day, bombing a school full of children—and you claim it is intended to trigger Armageddon, you are either a charlatan or a delusional religious extremist. Either way, you are closer to being the Antichrist than a follower of Christ.

Donald Trump posted this image to his Truth Social account featuring a map of North and Central America with the USA as well as Canada, Greenland, and Venezuela all filled in with American flags.

Interesting choice to include Venezuela alongside the US, Canada, and Greenland here. Makes you wonder about the message he's trying to send geopolitically. #venezuela #trump Ukraine after Venezuela https://paxconsulting.blog/2026/01/06/ukraine-after-venezuela/

[mmccubbing]

I'm certain that the intent is continental dominance, starting with the countries with the largest amounts of the most in-demand resources, like oil and certain minerals.

Also, just as Greenland would mean that Canada is surrounded for easier conquest, Venezuela would mean that Central America is surrounded for future conquest too.

My dear American friends, family, & neighbours,

If you haven't already, please make plans for how you can, realistically, get out on short notice and stay out for days, weeks, months, or indefinitely.

1. Out of the city

2. Out of the state

3. Out of the country

This is especially true if you are, or may be seen as, non-white, non-citizen, gay, bi, trans, disabled, neurodivergent, leftist, or supporting of any of the above.r

Don't operate on assumptions about, say, being able to cross into a foreign country like Canada without preparation, plans, and answers to questions you may face. You *will* face unexpected barriers, unknown unknowns, like Canada classifying America as a "safe" country.

Yes, I'm serious.

It's better to be prepared unnecessarily, than to encounter the necessity unprepared.

With love,

Your friendly neighbourhood Canadian🇨🇦

abstract and modern art haters are sooo snobby like klein literally Created an entirely new pigment and then painted a canvas in a way where the brush strokes wouldn't be visible. the insinuation that people with no skill could reproduce that is so annoying because unless you are skilled at color mixing and painting you definitely couldn’t lmao

i hope it's okay to add this because i think it hits the nail directly on the head

Honestly, it's like picking up a book and saying "I know all these words, I can type, I could have written this" like there's no middle step between the technical ability and the finished work.

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

It's especially funny when they're also wrong about the technical ability because they don't understand the specific medium and assume that something very hard would be very easy.

[mmccubbing]

Yes, the whole world is just people doing things.

Yes, you are a person and could probably do something *like* the thing.

However, we never know what all we don't know. So many things in art, science, life, and the world around us have seemingly infinite complexities that crop up as you zoom in ever further.

Instead of minimizing the work or knowledge of others, approach with curiosity. Chances are, there's lots to learn! Life is so much better when lived with an open mind and an eagerness to learn.

Watch this interview and then tell me again that the USA is not a threat to Greenland, Mexico, Canada, or anybody else in "their" hemisphere.

The Drumpf administration illegally invaded one country, is talking about invading others — including allies — and is talking about cancelling the 2026 elections.

Democracy? Rule of law? What are those?

In a world of global mass surveillance, data brokers are a central pillar that act as marketplaces for people's data and behaviour. They should not exist.

[mmccubbing]

Everything in my head is so messed up that I don't even know what to deal with first.

It's like my brain has turned to mush, like a tire worn bare and trying to drive on ice, or a gear stripped smooth and just spinning in place.

Energy, but no action. Desire, but no drive.

The origin of wealth is in poverty; for some to have more than others, others must have less. The greater the degree of wealth, the greater the degree of poverty.

My American friends,

As a Canadian watching everything unfolding south of our border, I have to ask a favour, something everybody can do. I need you to look into what would be required for you to leave the country for 6-12 months, if it becomes necessary.

I'm not saying that you need to leave, but please look into it, just in case. Know what you need to have together, where you would go, & how long you could stay. Don't operate on assumptions. Verify them.

Please and thank you and I'm sorry.

Trump at Quantico today

“I told Pete [Hegseth], we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military, National Guard, but military, because we’re going into Chicago very soon, that’s a big city with an incompetent governor,” the president said during his remarks to a gathering of top generals and admirals in Quantico, Virginia.

The president then proceeded to tell a story about watching media coverage of troops being spit on, saying in part the new policy should be “they spit, we hit.”

The president then proceeded to tell a story about watching media coverage of troops being spit on, saying in part the new policy should be “they spit, we hit.”

“People are standing, their mouth is this far away from their mouth, and they’re spitting at them and they’re screaming at them. And that soldier standing there, he wants to knock the hell out of the person, but he’s not allowed to do anything,” Trump said.

“I say they spit, we hit. Is that okay? I think so, they spit it’s a new thing. They spit, we hit,” he added.

Relatedly, Trump then told the generals that if military or police vehicles are hit with bricks or other objects, that officers should “do whatever the hell” they want.

“You get out of that car, and you can do whatever the hell you want to do, because those people are, you now can die from that,” he said.

The Michigan "Anticorruption of Public Morals Act"

CW: trans & non-binary erasure, pornography, & "public morals"

. . . . .

In addition to outlawing pornography (going so far as to block "moaning, or sensual voice content"), it seeks to make content about any "disconnection between biology and gender" a felony and prohibit circumvention tools like VPNs.

It would require ISPs, social media, and other organizations to actively identify and block such content and methods of circumvention. They would also have to remove content within 2 days of being notified by authorities or "trusted flaggers" of such content.

Individuals would face 25 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $125,000 and business $500,000 per violation and $250,000/day past the 2-day limit.

If would also mandates a "special internet content enforcement division" under the Attorney General's office.

Here's the bill:

I've said it before, and I'll say it again:

"The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control" (Galatians 5:22-23)

Christ was the anti-Trump.

Anybody who follows Trump ignores the teachings and example of Jesus. They call themselves "Christians" but have taken on Christ's name in vain.

Israel not only bombed yet another hospital in Gaza, but also waited until journalists and rescue workers arrived, and then bombed it again.

It's both profoundly horrific and entirely illegal.

That constitutes two more war crimes for Israel just in this one attack.

Revealed: Israeli military’s own data indicates civilian death rate of 83% in Gaza war

Figures from a classified Israeli military intelligence database indicate five out of six Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in Gaza have been civilians, an extreme rate of slaughter rarely matched in recent decades of warfare.
