this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

Politicians across the country have accused the federal Liberal government of stalling expansion of the national pharmacare plan.

I am constantly horrified by this government, and utterly bemused by people who think that Carney is better than Poilivere. They clearly haven’t been paying enough attention to what he is actually doing. @althiaraj.bsky.social has been one of the few journalists honest and pointed about this.

personally I think it's a very big deal that the Canada bureau chief for the @nytimes.com — certainly one of the highest-paid journalists in the country — asked an unspecified "AI tool" what Poilievre said & published its AI-hallucinated quotes in her reporting.

This is going in my treasured screenshots album and I‘ll post a link to my AI reference guide page for my CW students, on Canvas.

More complex arguments re: AI hold up in academic spaces, but for me, the crux of it is simple: You don't need it. You need to learn the skills yourself, because that's where the value comes from: your direct involvement and your growth BECAUSE of that involvement. You're better than AI.

Eliminating libraries in prisons is a disaster, completely shortsighted. Libraries are a lifeline for incarcerated people who want to learn and grow, and have few other options.

Thread detailing Mark Carney’s war on libraries, knowledge, and culture throughout so many parts of society. His deep cuts to the public service are not in line with the vision he presents of a bold and more independent Canada.

Die Aufforderung an Männer, sich anhand konkreter Fälle mit sexualisierter Gewalt zu beschäftigen, ist keine Zumutung, in sich „das Monster“ zu entdecken, sondern die Aufforderung, an diesen Fällen zu erkennen, wo Probleme von Männlichkeitskonzepten, Verhaltensweisen & Denkmustern, liegen.
