If I'm doing the math correctly, Musk's big pay packet yesterday could have made each of these now-dead people millionaires instead. He is among the sickest men the world has ever produced.

They keep saying that and it hasn't happened because renewables don't make money for fossil fuel companies the way oil does. The economics aren't the same

In Canada, the CBC might be the kind of entity to help run / coordinate “public service social media”. With interoperable standards and options for hosting, this could be a mix of shared infrastructure (& moderation) as well as individual orgs like @gandersocial.bsky.social and #CoSocialCa

When you're just about at the crucial point in your job talk, but everyone is leaving for their 1 p.m. classes.

Americans make a huge brouhaha if anything is given free, dubbing it as communism but in Europe it's the norm and people are happier for it. Doesn't mean the end of free enterprise; doesn't mean communism. A large % of Americans have clearly been brainwashed. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

"Running list of German support organizations for your kit bags," said a US Army website in Germany about the government shutdown. It was a list of local food banks

Yes! Fan cultures are generative in the _true_ sense, not the way that "generative AI" uses the word. This is what I mean when I say the campaign had to "Meet the people where they are" www.anildash.com/2025/11/05/t...

"Communism as a formal ideology began in the mid-19th century, particularly with the publication of "The Communist Manifesto" by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in 1848."

I drove through Bucks County last week and saw a couple of these signs. Bucks went just barely for Trump in 2024, it's not exactly the kind of place where you'd expect this sort of very-online-leftist messaging to work as an attack. But it does now! The normies are being radicalized against ICE.🙏

Jimmy Kimmel: “The guy who never missed a Happy Meal in his life is deciding who gets to eat in this country. Just think about how cruel a person has to be to cut off food to 42 million people. “It’s the kind of thing that makes you go, ‘Oh, no wonder his kids are like that.’”

From time to time, news organization leaders should look around and ask: Do our stories reflect the current state of political discourse? Do our segments represent the voices of all voters?

If nothing else, Chris D’Entremont accomplished something no other politician has. Poilievre hasn’t said at word since just past 5pm tonight. That alone deserves the Order of Canada. 😂 #cdnpoli
