Decided that my go to critique of anything that I know is AI generated shal be “soulless” because not only is it true but touches on the uncanny valley nature I see in all of it that just feels off.

It’s hard to know what to say about this separation debacle anymore, except that it’s doing untold damage to economic investment and severely damaging Alberta’s relationship with First Nations. And i hate it so much.

If the stakes weren't so high and the human toll wasn't so awful, it would be genuinely very funny how little of a shit Trump gives about any part of his job that isn't renovations or rigging elections. The most obviously checked out dude in history.

Of course Pathways wants government to pay for the project. That was always their grift. And my worry is that Carney is going to do it, because he's swallowed their bullshit.

“I worry the exercise has already emboldened Alberta’s worst people — our separatist-coddling premier chief among them.” Me too.

Stephen Miller demanded that ICE-holes “force confrontations” with protesters because “anti-ICE could not be viewed as successful.” He repeatedly said that protesters “need to be vanquished by any force necessary.” Later, ICE-holes murdered Alex Pretti. #ProudBlue #StephenMiller #FuckICE #AlexPretti

I might not say it this way, but I think many Albertans agree with you. Every policy/law UCP passes is to take control away from the rest of us, while purporting to promote choice, more freedom & less red tape. It’s only to retain power & appease supporters, nothing else 🤬 #ableg

Ok so now we know that a big leap in price per barrel won’t fix things why would doubling production not also fail to do so? Is it the Alberta’s government long term plan.

Whenever I want to check in on the state of Canadian democracy, I look at its weakest link: the Alberta government. And folks, it’s not looking great. You know the Don’t Say Gay stuff we’re used to seeing in the the United States? It looks like something similar is coming to Alberta schools.

Under Danielle Smith and the UCP, Albertans are paying more and getting less. This government's "fiscal management" is a joke, but no one's laughing. calgaryherald.com/news/local-n...

Neutrality is a myth created by RWNJ to make their insane viewpoints more tolerable.

BEYOND LOCAL: Alberta Teachers’ Association describes proposed Education Act changes as 'clickbait'

There is a long philosophical tradition of civil disobedience from many different sources including Thoreau, Ghandi & Peter Singer. Alberta UCP Bill 25 will make it unlawful to teach about social change through the disobedience of laws. #abpoli #cdnpoli

Everyone should familiarize themselves with the Wright's law unit cost curve. Solar, batteries and most products we are now electrifying (EVs, heat pumps food pasturazation) are going to continue down this path in a giant feedback loop. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experie...

“By legitimizing a movement built on bigotry, we’ve legitimized the bigotry itself. Alberta won’t emerge from this exercise as the bad place separatists yearn for. Thankfully. But I fear we’ll be a worse place than we were before.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

From story “when presenting a topic of historic or political significance, teachers must ensure ‘both sides of the debate are accurately represented’ so students can formulate their own opinions.” Look forward to having my kids learn about train schedules in Nazi Germany. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The time-honored, smug, & underwhelming tradition of The Online April Fool's Prank, where consumer brands and tech bros short-sheet our beds & ask us to pull their fingers, breaking into guffaws at their inside dad jokes before they get to the punchlines, like a 1am SNL sketch about software updates

This is 100% ethnic cleansing. And Israel will keep doing it as long as the world keeps looking away with their eyes while reaching out their hands to help fund it.

It was just 24 days between when Zuck went on Rogan and talked about how "never again" would he suppress info based on gov't demands (misrepresenting those demands) and when he texted top gov't employee Elon Musk to say "we're all set up to take down info you want removed." I wrote about it here.

Danielle Smith has been pushing for more NP's now she'll have to find a way to fund them or risk losing Federal funding which begs the question: if they can withhold HC $ for this why can't they do the same with her push toward privatization?

Bat Dog is all Ears 😍

This is largely by design. If we stop thinking about AI as simply technology and instead as part of a political and economic program, its chief function become easier to see: namely to erode interpersonal trust so that ultimately we give up on forms of agreement & negotiation arbitrated by people.

Countries that *did* deploy a lot of renewables & electrification are already faring better than they otherwise would have . Here are some examples: 1/ Pakistan, still highly exposed to Gulf LNG supply crunch BUT estimated to save $12 billion due to solar boom: www.linkedin.com/posts/lauri-...

This. The whole "Lewis is too far left!" narrative makes no sense if you actually read his overall modest, historically unremarkable policies. "Raise taxes on the rich and invest in society" has just been painted as extreme by the media, when it has previously been the norm. #cdnpoli #canada

hello 👋 i have developed a new tool called blüuümpíi. blüuümpíi will convert every file on your hard drive to a .wav file without asking you, maximize your system volume, and play them on every bluetooth speaker you have ever connected to. if you offer feedback on blüuümpíi i will take legal action

The degree to which the bluesky leadership does not understand the people who populate their service is extremely funny. Their AI tool is followed by 1,500 people but blocked by 125,000.

Making generational changes to things like planning and development can be politically costly, no matter how much sense it might make, writes Courtney Walcott, in his latest column for LWC. #yyc #calgary #yyccc

Today, a group of Albertan parents of trans youth went to the Legislature to demand a meeting with Premier Danielle Smith. She didn't just refuse to meet. She refused to acknowledge the request. She made their families suffer, and refuses to hear their stories.

It’s very telling that Hawkins is pretty much the only product in the grocery store that doesn’t advertise. There’s simply no need.

The UCP promised they wouldn’t raise taxes but their new budget does. So you pay more while they enjoy higher salaries, more $ for their rent & trips around the world. All because they blew through near-record resource revenues. Wasted a boom during a boom. youtu.be/Sn5rxLnE1BE?... #abpoli

Very funny stuff. Jason Kenney got kicked out of St. Michael’s University School in Victoria (tuition for day students = $35,220; boarding = $85,300) and then went to Athol Murray College of Notre Dame (day tuition = $13,000; boarding = $32,000) for free because his dad was the president.
