Saying I don't have it in me to do this conversation or this next activity to a 7-year-old feels like saying I'm not hungry to an Italian mother. They look at you and they accept the answer in that exact moment, but then they're back to asking you again 2 minutes later

I wrote a book about how if AI can free us from the burden of “bullshit jobs,” what can we build in their place? It's political, hopeful and optimistic about a future we can build together. amazon.ca/End-Work-Start…

Just watched a shirtless dude say to a woman in a bathing suit: "so I'll see you later tonight" with the most condescending grin, she keeps walking, he nods at his bro (def an incel) who nodded at him back. Seems like Saved by the Bell episode on toxic masculinity.

This is gonna sound weird, but I gonna say it anyway, if you don't believe that aliens are real more than they are not real, you probably aren't much fun to hang around -- and I extend that similar concept into every train of thought.

Chrissy and Anne Marie are the two councillors I've seen so far. Approx ten armed police officers here. All the board members are nervously walking around. Around 20 other members of the community.

Just had a friendly chat with Paul, the police board chair. I asked him if he really wants to leave this as his legacy and he said that he will be long gone by the time the building is built and he was on the hospital board for ten years and no one cared.

Wow. 1.5 hours later. Our police board and police chief should be ashamed of themselves. No answers to questions. Sensational responses and avoidance to questions.

If someone assassinated you in front of the world -- what kinds of stories would media uphold about who you are? I'll tell ya one thing. It would make me sad if millions of people were kinda glad it happened.

Canada didn't see coming the eventual threat of lawsuits from Trump? Where is Canada's proactive law team looking out to protect us from playing his games.

New policy idea: each year we liquidate the wealth of Canada’s richest person (they can keep $1 billion) and use it to pay $1,500 a month to every renter in the country. Reset annually. Problem solved. The math works.

Would it be fair to say that people feel more left than they speak? As if there is a social obligation to sound more right even though your heart is much more left?

Mamdani dom'd trump. He perfectly articulated freedom while trump licked his boots. makes me think the handmaid's tale is actually further off than we fear. Phew. Real question for Mamdani: why you backtrack on cops? Collective liberation requires no cops.
