Unhoused in Edmonton
In Edmonton, the most northerly city in North America, houseless tent encampments have gotten much larger and more numerous since the pandemic, and the police response has been to ruthlessly dismantle them, even in the middle of winter, over and over. Many of the houseless are indigenous people.
If anyone has time to watch this discussion which includes an eyewitness account, it is quite extraordinary. youtube.com/watch?v=0EigfMhkF0…

Leonard Cohen's words 1988
Everybody knows that you're in trouble
Everybody knows what you've been through
From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
To the beach of Malibu
Everybody knows it's coming apart
Take one last look at this sacred heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows

"What’s their top priority the first week of the new #Congress? Lowering costs? Addressing the housing crisis? No, it's sanctioning the International Criminal Court to protect genocidal maniac #Netanyahu so he can continue the #genocide in #Gaza."

Interesting 2025
1) 2025, itself is a square (45 x 45)
2) It's a product of two squares: 9² x 5² = 2025
3) It is the sum of 3-squares: 40² + 20² + 5² = 2025
4) It's the first square after 1936 (44 x 44)
5) It's the sum of cubes of all the single digits: from 1 to 9 it would be 1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³= 2025.
This is going to be our UNIQUE YEAR.

According to Sami al-Arian, Israel has broken every rule and convention in the book regarding war zones.
“Israel is not interested in any kind of negotiations. What Israel is interested in is to bring Palestinians to their heels and empty northern Gaza.”
“They have been doing that systematically, and the final straw is to burn basically the [Kamal Adwan] hospital, arrest its medical staff, eliminate, kill and burn some of them, and arrest its director,” al-Arian added.
Al-Arian said Israel seeks “to get hold of the land in Gaza, empty the people and destroy the infrastructure”.
He added that this has been “a systematic policy” for 15 months and it is tragic that the whole world is watching this “with total impotence”.
Israel is now attacking a hospital a day in #Gaza. After burning Kamal Adwan hospital on Friday, it bombarded al Wafa, killing 7 patients on Saturday.
On Sunday, the Israeli army shelled Al Ahli hospital, where some Kamal Adwan patients sought refuge.
Kamal Adwan director Hussam Abu Safiya is still forcibly disappeared by Israeli troops.
A reminde: Al Shifa hospital's director was released after 7 months of torture; other arrested doctors, like Adnan Al-Bursh, never made it out alive.

A surreal moment in Canadian politics
A parliamentarian's behind the scenes account of Canada's recent Fall Economic Statement fiasco (and resignation of Deputy PM Chrystia Freeland), by Elizabeth May, leader of the Green Party
Oh my. It was crazier than you think. An exacto knife is involved

Why would people not have their headlights on when driving in fog?
Seriously, why? Don't they want to be seen. Is there a downside I'm not understanding?
I drove through fog today and followed vehicles that were like ghosts with no taillights visible.

They really put a goth chic on the news and asked her about the CEO shooting, not sure what they expected but she handled them well 😂
And remember, Luigi's rich, his lawyer says he is not asking for nor needs our donations. What a guy!
Go give to your local mutual aid groups and activists instead.
Oh and also, Luigi is innocent until proven guilty. He is ALLEGED to have murdered Thompson so until that's proven I'mma say ALLEGED.

Looking Good
This sanderling (Calidris alba) appears to study its reflection in the water. I'm sure is just foraging for food.
"The Sanderling is one of the world’s most widespread shorebirds. Though they nest only in the High Arctic, in fall and winter you can find them on nearly all temperate and tropical sandy beaches throughout the world. The Ruddy Turnstone and the Whimbrel are the only other shorebirds that rival its worldwide distribution." - allaboutbirds.org

Many Ukrainians make the journey closer to the frontlines to embrace their loved ones, even if only for a brief moment.
