"The #WellbeingEconomy is an umbrella term for an alternative to #neoliberal capitalism. It's not just one thing.At its core, a wellbeing economy is an economy that explicitly places all people, all living things and our planet at the centre rather than the other way around."

"Our 'rich get richer' economic system concentrates wealth & power to a massive extent. We're NOT all in this together. One class of people can buy their way out of anything. You can barely imagine a more toxic thing to do to community solidarity & democracy but that's exactly what we've done."

" #TaxCuts for very rich people leads to less revenue then cuts to the public sector. This is presented as being 'inevitable' but it's a choice which leads to a decline in quality & accessibility of public services. Then governments swoop in to offer #privatization as a viable alternative."

In the hot minute I've been taking a social media hiatus plenty has happened. Including Alberta's provincial government meddling in municipal affairs. Again.

🚴 Bike lanes hate this time.

Not a cent of provincial money went to building Edmonton's bike lanes, Dreeshan is still upset about them because the province "provides funding for other municipal roads".

"Capitalism's defining feature is that most economic activity (meaning production, consumption & distribution) takes place in the private sector with the goal of accumulating private profit. The goal isn't to support human or planetary well-being. It's to accumulate private profit"

🧵 Today's a good day for every candidate in every riding to answer if #RebelNews is a real news outfit. How about it #GregMcLean? Is this who #CalgaryCentre should be getting their news from? Why do Cons keep pushing these lying frauds on us? #Election2025 #yyc #cdnpoli ctvnews.ca/politics/article/fe

"A lot of us are expressing shock and disbelief and questioning 'how on earth did we get here?' It's important to recognize that much of what we're seeing now is an entirely predictable outcome of our political/economic system of neoliberal capitalism. This was bound to happen and now here we are!"

New open-access paper! A team including Dr. Darla Zelenitsky (UCalgary) describes Duonychus tsogtbaatari, a bizarre two-fingered therizinosaur from Cretaceous Mongolia. Its huge claws and reduced fingers provide new insight into theropod evolution and forelimb reduction. Exceptional fossil preservation even shows the keratin sheath on the claws!

Painting of a Duonychus in a forest. The forest looks quite tropical and dense. The Duonychus is covered in fine feathers with longer feathers on the forelimbs. It's using its two giant claws on each hand to pull the leaves in towards its mouth.
A skeletal of Duonychus, showing which elements of the skeleton were found and which are inferred. The found bones include many in the hip, the back, and the forelimbs / claws. Surrounding the illustration are pictures of the fossil bones themselves.
A closeup illustration of the hands of Duonychus. It has only two fingers, each with enormous claws.

"Our current global economic model which is increasingly shrinking the world's middle class, making the poor poorer, the rich richer and the world increasingly on fire is just ONE now demonstrably failing human made system. Others have existed before & will do so again. We're way past due." #
