This guy is so good at praising and defending the things he is fully dismantling and selling to resource extraction companies and private equity

China is making $6,000 electric cars and 5 minute charging stations. Meanwhile here we have, let's see... the 4th Reich brought to you by Monster Energy drinks.

A society with one trillionaire and millions of people in poverty is something to be deeply ashamed of, actually

I assume this is some kind of humiliation ritual being done to the people of the United States of America by their conquerors

A while ago at a presentation on how local companies are using LLM chatbots, I noted that these US tech companies could restrict (or be forced to restrict) access for any reason, creating a strategic vulnerability for Cdn companies. The room's reaction suggested this issue wasn't on anyone's radar.

We used to be a proper community that used to eat rich men, you know.

If you over-regulate capitalism you get totalitarian communism. If you under-regulate capitalism you get a ruling caste of insane monopolists. Please ignore the fact that one of these things has never happened and the other keeps happening over and over

Apropos of nothing, eliminating a trillionaire is even more ethical than eliminating a billionaire

And Musk has achieved very little other than an ability to get other people to invest huge sums for him while taking over companies started by other people and that run on the technical skills of other people. He is nothing but a parasite on the world.

Come to the University of Manitoba, we have the tastiest and most nutritious mascot in the U15 #GoBisons

This has been the common sense argument for nearly two years now. Elon Musk is a malevolent source of foreign interference in British democracy and his platform, X, actively promotes the spread of hate, extremism and CSAM.

Which brings me to my final point. The immense human Ponzi scheme that is Elon Musk will eventually collapse. But traditional Ponzi schemes only exploit investors who choose to participate. This time much of the money propping up Musk’s scam will come from ordinary

Oh no @drjengunter.bsky.social AI is coming for your job and I have bad news for you, you will never be able to retire

AI is going to change the way we do medicine...

Hell yeah electrek.co/2026/06/10/b...

So we're going to get legislation making privacy a fundamental right at the same time as we get legislation forcing us to ID ourselves to use social media platforms and online services?

This is another great benefit of being a white guy, and I know I'm a white guy, and I am very sure when people hate me it is because of me

They're just doing tech dystopia mad libs at this point

Honestly wondering if these politicians have screwworms of the brain to say this kind of stuff

Woke up with 3 omnipods on in case you are wondering what type of day I will be having #t1d

It's amazing to see just how mask-off this is given how much effort the US expended to disguise its colonization of Iraq. Now it's just, "we will be taking control of their Oil and Gas Markets like we did in Venezuela." Same as ever, but sans pretense.

Does the US populace have the stomach for just going around and violently robbing other countries using the military ?? What could go wrong right, the US has always done really well with asymmetric violent conflicts and not having Americans becoming targets domestically and abroad

I mean it would be hard for these regime puppets not to suport this clearly racist white nationalist violence since it is exactly what they want ICE to be doing in the US

Antisemitism

Dear USA, look at the Knicks in Game 4, there is no limit to the amazing things you might be able to do if you get rid of Trump

I wish Canada and Mexico would see that the US is a bully but also a shambolic mess led by someone so incompetent they only succeed when people give them stuff, the US does need things from other countries and the tariffs hurt the US, USMCA is a lost cause, tax digital services, sign other deals

Not mentioned is that keeping the USMCA in limbo suits both Trump and general US interests. It allows the US to continue extorting concessions from its ”partners.” Carney has already played into this trap by ditching the DST and gutting the Online Streaming Act, in exchange for nothing.

If you make AI animal videos know that I hate you and you are making the world a worse place to live in

AI animal videos are ruining one of the internet's last good things: defector.com/ai-animal-vi...

Tax wealth not work

It's almost as if it's not the federal government that is the problem so much as the weak-ass business case for new pipelines.

Any ideas how we encourage our remaining friends / organisations off X? If they haven't left yet, it's hard to know what else will encourage them. But, their complicity is what gives Musk the platform to do this sort of thing.

The Police: We're the thin blue line, highly trained and defending the vulnerable. We put our lives on the line every day facing unimaginable horrors Also the Police: We're so delicate, it must be illegal to hurt our feelings www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

Is this a twisty storm thing Winnipeg ? #MBStorm

Tax Ellison out of existence.

Literally all the referees, including the American ones, should boycott. But nobody will because most people excuse racism unless it's happening to them personally.

The struggle is real

Just shut it all down already 😡

This is such an important point: we rightly bemoan the ‘corporatization’ of higher ed but the irony is that many of the corporate managerial practices being imposed on us were discredited and abandoned by for-profit corporations long ago.

Poilievre campaigns on a united Canada: “Please don’t make me find yet another riding”

I told a group yesterday that pushing "A.i." on kids is a form of child abuse. I stand by that.

It's okay to use citation software. It's okay not to. Using citation software isn't even a little bit like using Gen AI to write, read, or summarize (citation software is deterministic: same inputs, same outputs). These are actually easy things to know and understand and avoid Discourse about.

What a lie the worst thing you can be in Minnesota is a rude packers fan... I imagine I don't really know I live in Manitoba

Selling fairie dust works fine if you are an investment banker type and you can convince people with too much money you are right, worst case they end up with less money, but as a Prime Minister selling fairie dust hits different and this sucks

It's a bubble. And it will destroy education, search functionality on the Internet, academic and journalism publishing, and utterly devastate the environment. But I'm sure the ephemeral GDP growth will be worth it!

Now that's what I call a spicy opeing: Understanding mechanisms is not a research question.

Love how my shithole country can't do basic stuff that authoritarian regimes and impoverished nations do without any trouble at all, we're just too committed to showing off that we're a stupid and racist shithole.
