Feels like we’re being politically raped, and it’s really pissing me off.
Yeah, they elected a rapist so…
Ikr?! How do you even begin to make sense of that?! You can’t! And now, here the rest of us are being forced to deal with it. Makes me wanna scream.

Cracking and Packing. Learn and save yourselves, if you can.
I get the very strong sense it’s too late, that we’ve crossed some line or passed some tipping point… really hope I’m wrong.
crossed a ripping point yes. so tactics change. it’s not too late as long as people are still alive. Like painting or sewing – we build on and salvage from mistakes. (see: transitional ethics, from social sciences)
if you feel despair, seek community and feed your soul. Please do not comply in advance, internet friend!
we survived the AIDs crisis by working and organizing by day, potlucking together, and partying and dancing to feed our spirits by night. (figurative, for our night owls and 3rd shifters.)

This right here is lovely, and I know I’m not gonna be the only person scrolling by who needed to read it. ty.
Thanks. I’m not worried for myself in the common sense, and don’t plan on complying… I’m more worried for others and how they’ll cope with what I suspect is coming.
fortunately there is plenty of work to harness worry to usefulness. whatever your skills, I’m sure local chapters of progressive and human rights groups could appreciate the support. even just using whatever privledge you have to shut down racist or sexist jokes and denormalizing exclusive-supremacist comments and behavior helps hold the line.
uh someone link those fight the altright videos ig. the lecture has already been done with cool production.
Please do: loudly and at the local US consulate of possible. If not, if there is a town hall, they need to hear your complaint.
The app is showing provincial and national for me. I’m in NS and have a few around the city and they aren’t mislabeled from what I see.🤷🏻♂️
Either I’m the odd one out or they changed it back.Edit: found one, how have you been reporting this?
Man, all these tech giants keep making convenient “mistakes”…
I wouldn’t be surprised if the orange utan asked Google to “make a mistake” on purpose, to float the idea and see what would happen.
Do you guys need any geologists? I’d love to get out of this country.
We have quite a lot of geology.
Can you please go burn down the White House again?
Just says Park for me?
May as well start calling temples “churches” and change all speed limits to Mph since it seems we’re in a “being wrong” contest.
Came here to talk about this as well.
I mean I knew Americans weren’t great at geography, I didn’t realize it was this bad.
What I don’t get is some are labeled park and some state parks.
They show up as provincial parks for me?
Some of them are listed as state when you bring up their card.
Just label the US as South/Lesser Canada.
The Gulf of Lesser Canada does have a certain ring to it…
Every canadian should switch to Organic Maps for national security purposes.
Does that matter if your os is still Android (like most people are)?
from “Not Evil” to “Prime Evil” in just a couple decades.

They’ve ramped it up in recent years, sure, but I think they been dormantly evil since they came on the scene and we just didn’t realize it until the hooks were in deep.
Perfect strategy for this kinda thing, and now they can just be brazen about it. Kinda like a certain red party in a certain shithole country.
