Residents of one First Nations community went door-to-door warning neighbors before fleeing by boat. More than 900 fires continue burning.
More than 900 wildfires are burning throughout Canada, with devastating impacts for First Nations. Thirteen Nations remain under evacuation orders that have forced 2,182 people from their homes.Â
The Namaygoosisagagun (Collins) First Nation watched one blaze largely destroy its entire community in less than an hour, forcing residents to flee by boat. Residents reported having only minutes to gather their belongings before homes were overtaken by the flames on Wednesday, and Anishinabek Nation Grand Council Chief Linda Debassige said in a statement that all community members have been accounted for pending a full assessment. Â

A majority of the things it lists are things the web browser tells the server on purpose, incidentally.
I am very sorry to inform you that despite the âitâs so scary that they know thisâ framing, your time zone, default language, font selection, and cookie storage availability are things you usually want the remote server to know; if the site youâre looking at is one where any of that matters, you donât want to have to keep having to answer those questions over and over, and none of that information is unique enough to identify you personally. Arguably you also want them to know your screen resolution and bit depth, although thatâs debatable. (Itâs also a thing which is relatively innocuous, though. I suppose it could be used in conjunction with the rest of the data to track you, but thatâs a stretch. Your IP address, which they necessarily have unless youâre using a VPN or proxy server, would generally be much easier to track, to the point that trying to pull Sherlock Holmes tricks based on your screen size would be ridiculous.)
This is going to be very interesting to watch, because Trumpâs health is obviously none too good already and the party will have to make a decision about whether to back him long before even the primaries, and of course in his more coherent moments heâs going to try to destroy anybody who tries to replace him. The closer we get to 2028 the more worked up this is likely to get and more likely it is that the Republicans will fracture. If the Democrats were competent, theyâd be a major factor but sadly theyâre worthless.
Democrats: [Vote to establish ICE despite it being an obvious piece of authoritarian overreach with creepy Nazi overtones] [Repeatedly nominate members of Congress who made those votes to establish ICE for President] [Repeatedly increase funding for ICE when they have control] [Do nothing to screen ICE for white supremacists when they have control] [Repeatedly build new ICE facilities when they have control]
Also Democrats: fuck Susan Collins for not being more upset about ICE!

He didn't steal 10 million dollars. They made that number up as a loss, they never fucking had it. Rockstar has spent more than a billion fucking dollars on GTA VI and will likely make billions more when it gets released.
Uber is a fucking shell game of a company designed to leech investor capital and output bootleg cabs.
Nvidia posted a profit in 2023 of $4.37 billion. This is like someone stealing less than a penny from me.
And they lock this kid in a prison hospital for LIFE?
What with GTA VI going up for pre-order i'd just like to remind everyone that rockstar conspired with the UK government to lock an 18-year-old away for life for hacking them.
Sometimes I wonder if JKR is just a nebulous cultural concept in people's minds (esp if they do not live in the UK), because she isn't JUST posting on twitter about this. She is directly using that wealth from HP to fund anti-trans sentiment and legislation in the UK. Most recently in the past week, she was directly advertising to organisations who had been listed as anti-trans on Amnesty International UK's blacklist to apply to her fund (and would make a donation as well) for them to take legal action against AI UK. It's not just some vague association of tweets, she is already causing us material harm, how much more is it going to take for HP fans to read another damn book?
JK Rowling has had her hands in UK politics for a long time. Sheâs close friends with Gordon Brown, who paved the way for Tory austerity, donated to the Better Together campaign and hounded independence supporters, and, as youâve said, actively funds anti trans legislation.
And literally all it would have taken would have been for Kamala Harris to have been able to pretend that she was going to stop the genocide in Gaza. But she couldnât even do that, because the Democratic Party is run by vile murderers who would rather see a million people die than stop enabling a totally needless war that most of the people in the US do not want.
Fuck Trump â but also fuck people who claim to oppose Trump but refuse to actually be opposition when they have the chance.

Havana, May 2023 â U.S. trans and Marxist activist Melinda Butterfield attended Cubaâs seventh International Colloquium on Trans-Identities,
Based on remarks given by Melinda Butterfield, an organizer with Women In Struggle/Mujeres En Lucha, at the event âWhy Queer People Should Stand with Cuba Against Trumpâs Attacks,â held at the Los Angeles LGBT Center on June 20, 2026.
If the U.S. succeeds in taking over, it would mean the end of Cubaâs world-class, people-centered health care system. It would be replaced with U.S.-style health care for profit, which most Cubans would not be able to afford. The likely result would be death and devastation like that which ravaged the former Soviet republics during the 1990s.
And for trans and queer Cubans? We can look here to see how life-saving gender-affirming health care is being ripped away from the most vulnerable, including children.
As the bombing starts again, itâs clear the president has dragged the US into a limitless fiasco â and the world into an economic quagmire,
Feckless and clueless, Donald Trump is lost in Iran, unable to find a way out of the disastrous war he started. Once again, the US military is pummelling the country and, increasingly, its civilian infrastructure. As before, this unlawful bludgeoning strengthens the resistance of a hardline regime that cares little for its peopleâs suffering. How often have Trump and Pete Hegseth, the Pentagonâs wildling lord of bones, hailed a bogus victory? The president claimed this week to be âwinning bigâ. No one believes him. Even as it counts the vast human and economic cost of his Persian folly, a watching world scoffs at US impotence.
Control of the strait of Hormuz, closed due to Trumpâs belligerence, is now the White Houseâs limited, elusive objective. The grander US and Israeli war aims â eliminating Iranâs nuclear programme, degrading its regional militias, regime change â are less attainable than ever. Itâs Trumpâs craven leadership that renders US forces ineffective, not the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. If Iran really is the existential menace he claims, the logical course would be all-out conquest. When George W Bush decided Iraq posed unacceptable dangers, he invaded with 170,000 ground troops. It was a catastrophe. But at least Bush had balls.
Bone-spur Trump dare not attempt anything like that in Iran, for which small mercy the world should doubtless be thankful. But nor will he admit his mistake in recklessly starting a fight he cannot finish. He prefers to expose civilians and US troops to an unwinnable forever war of attrition, imperil Gulf Arab allies, damage the global economy, risk devastating famine in developing countries, gladden the hearts of tyrants from Moscow to Beijing, eviscerate international law and ruin his Republican partyâs electoral prospects â rather than accept that he blundered and seek a diplomatic settlement via stalled âpeace talksâ.
Trumpâs self-love, not Iran, is global enemy No 1. Heâs the principal reason this war is escalating uncontrollably again. Heâs a one-man weapon of mass destruction.
Thereâs a familiar pattern here. Trump went to war without consulting Congress, US allies or the American public. He had no clear plan or long-term strategy. He swallowed dodgy assurances of speedy victory from Israelâs equally dodgy prime minister. His profound ignorance of the military and regional risks was undisturbed by the expert assessments he reportedly ignored. Amazingly, Trump was expecting Iran to capitulate before closing the strait and was âshockedâ by its retaliatory attacks on US bases in Gulf states. No one else was. Now heâs all at sea.
This same arrogance and irresponsibility characterised last yearâs grandiose 20-point Gaza âpeace planâ. None of the key elements â reconstruction, an international stabilisation force, demilitarisation â have advanced, and Trump has mostly lost interest. Hamas has not disarmed, Israeli forces refuse to withdraw from the territory, humanitarian aid is still disrupted and more than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed since Octoberâs âceasefireâ. With no political solution in sight, Gaza exists in a state of no-peace, no-war limbo.
A similar critique applies to Trumpâs unhelpful interventions in the Ukraine-Russia war. He never concerned himself with root causes or Vladimir Putinâs dishonourable motives. He favoured what he perceived to be the stronger party and tried to bully Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukraineâs president, into quasi-capitulation. When that failed, he petulantly turned his back on Kyiv â although heâs still trying, for reasons only he can explain, to appease the intransigent Putin. Now this pattern of presidential stupidity, impatience and irresponsibility repeats again in Iran.
Unable to extricate himself, Trump is flailing. At the heart of this weekâs escalation is Juneâs âmemorandum of understandingâ, which supposedly froze the conflict for 60 days pending substantive negotiations. Trump hailed the MoU as a personal triumph, but like so many of his deals, it is fatally flawed. Its fifth paragraph appeared to legitimise de facto Iranian control over the strait. Desperate for an off-ramp, Trump agreed to it. Now, as the consequences become clearer, he jibs. Little wonder Tehran doesnât trust him. Who does?
The damage caused by Trumpâs Iran fiasco appears limitless at this point. It is a spectacle of a kind the world has rarely witnessed. Like an alcoholic who takes a drink believing that, this time, the outcome will be different, Trump has resumed daily bombing even though all previous onslaughts failed to produce the desired effect. The more he bombs, the more immoveable the regime becomes, the more conflict intensifies and widens, and the more remote is any chance of resolving the nuclear issue which, the US and Israel claim, is the crux of the matter.
Itâs plain that Trump, vowing to impose maritime tolls in the strait and then reversing himself within 24 hours, overseeing attacks on civilian infrastructure that could amount to war crimes, and facing the economically dire prospect of a Red Sea blockade by Yemenâs Iran-backed Houthis, has no clue how to escape this deepening quagmire. European allies look askance, Washingtonâs enemies chortle with glee, global markets take fright and the oil price rises again. The USâs reputation and influence in the world diminish with every missile fired. Itâs tough being a superpower when no one respects you.
Who will stop Trump? Congress has told him to halt the war or else seek official authorisation. Heâs ignoring it. Polls show a majority of Americans are against the whole $100bn, inflation-fuelling mess, yet Trump refuses to listen. Appalled allies, licking their wounds after another tongue-lashing at Natoâs Ankara summit, dare not check him for fear of permanent rupture. Pope Leo tries his valiant best. Prayer may be the only thing left.
Itâs hilarious that both parties in the US have been concentrating power in the executive branch for decades â notably so since Reagan â and theyâve been warned again and again that this could easily lead to a disaster, and now the exact disaster which was predicted has materialized, down to even the strawman-like weird pathetic ego-driven stuff, and everybody is just now saying âwhoa, this is badâ. Yes, of course it is bad. We warned you this would be bad years ago â I remember warning Democrats, back when Obama was building all that domestic spying stuff which Trump now controls, that this would be terrible in the hands of the wrong person, and they literally said âoh, donât worry, you can trust Obamaâ. We literally could not trust Obama, that was part of the point, but Democrats could not foresee something so obvious as a reactionary Republican winning an election ever again. And now they expect those of us with more than two brain cells to rub together to be surprised, just as they expected those of us with actual morals and ethics to support a genocide when it was Biden doing it.

WHO member states kicked off discussions to finalise the Pathogen Access and Benefit-Sharing system of the pandemic treaty on Monday.
...pandemic treaty on Monday.
WHO member states kicked off another attempt at finalising the missing piece of the pandemic treaty on Monday, with the Ebola outbreak injecting a fresh sense of urgency.
Wealthy countries and developing nations are at loggerheads in talks at the World Health Organization's headquarters over how the pandemic agreement, adopted last year, will work in practice.
Though the treaty was agreed in May 2025, how its key mechanism would operate was left out to get the deal over the line.
The agreement's Pathogen Access and Benefit-Sharing (PABS) system deals with sharing access to pathogens with pandemic potential, then sharing benefits derived from them such as vaccines, tests and treatments.
It was meant to be finalised by May 2026, but progress has been agonisingly slow.
Negotiations have often gone late into the night, producing slender advances and leaving diplomats drained.
This two-week session until July 17 is the seventh such round of talks.
As the number of confirmed Ebola deaths in the Democratic Republic of Congo outbreak topped 500, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus urged countries to grasp the nettle.
"Keep the destination in sight," pleaded the UN health agency's director-general.
"A future in which pathogen samples and information move quickly, without needless delay; and in which the benefits that come from them reach the people who need them most, fairly and in time."

Imagine that! Developing countries want the resources shared fairly and the Europeans basically want to privatise it. You can't make money if you can't patent it.
