If you need a script for getting your company off Twitter, I WROTE YOU ONE. Multiple people have used it, successfully, to explain the legal liability your company incurs by forcing employees to be on a platform with child sexual abuse material. I will help you use it.

In failing to defend Canadian cultural policy, Carney is also demonstrating that he doesnโt value Canadian policy autonomy, which is the very essence of sovereignty. He isnโt trading cultural regulation for a tariff deal. Heโa trading away Canadian policy sovereignty.

Nithya Raman took 40% of the votes in today's drop & has overtaken Spencer Pratt for the second spot. She's now up close to half a point. Bass: +15,691 (32.81%) Raman: +19,096 (39.93%) Pratt: +8,489 (17.75%) Pretty safe to say Raman has unlocked a spot in the runoff.

the thing thatโs been painfully obvious for years is that unchecked capital accumulation paired with gutting the social safety net and public goods was going to lead to commerce without customers. an economy built on consumption when no one has money to consume.

I donโt know how to tell people that the only way to win, to truly win, is to have principles and bring people along to rally behind advancing those principles. Electoral politics is no exception to this truth. If you elect someone who does not adhere to, or advance, your principles, you cannot win.

It is worth noting that the takeover of 60 Minutes, and CBS News, is the culmination of the strategy that was baked into the launch of Substack. This is the thing we were trying to explain was bigger than just "there are nazis on there".

The entire reason AI is being deployed in schools is to funnel money out of schools and into tech companies. Whatever reasons you've convinced yourself that AI edtech is necessary, regardless of how "useful" you think it is, it's sole purpose is to pad the pockets of the wealthy.
