There are two people on the news who were scammed out of money because they were told their cards needed to be replaced so they handed them over to random couriers that showed up. JESUS people. Don't hand your bank cards to strangers.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

1, man people are gross 2, "The Human Centipede of content" is the best descriptor of AI slop I've heard yet.

Today was a day.

I do not wish to learn about the "protocols" of the social media site I am on. I just want to make lil jokes with my friends and not see nazis. Why is this so hard for anyone who makes a social media site to understand

everybody i know is very, very tired. wishing everyone some true rest tonight.

Honestly, it’s hard for me to believe many of these Christian men even believe in God, the Bible, Hell or anything they preach. Christianity is just a tool of domination for them. I mean, every single day I see a Christian church leader or Christian politician in the news for heinous crimes.

I want going to dress up for Halloween this year until I stumbled across...

My mistake. 30 whales.

The remaining 20 whales at Marineland need to be moved and not starved to death because of human ineptitude. Very upsetting.

Man tough life at war ravaged portland

How bad are tariffs going? I paid for $32 of shaving cream from Canada. Unique stuff I’ve used for years, nothing like it in US. Small family business. UPS guy came to my door today with box and said I have to pay additional $120 before he can hand it to me. That makes it 5x more expensive!!! 🤯

So EVEN an AI actress is subject to Patriarchical bullshit? Cool. Cool. Tyler is 63. Not 103. 👀

RIP

Apropos of oh, nuthing... (😳) ... it is worth watching THE STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT just to be reminded on how quickly and terrifyingly "good" people can descend into abusive authoritarian fascist behavior given power and no real constraint. www.imdb.com/title/tt0420...

Well then

I'll never understand the cruelty of these horrendous "schools".

He can't get a Nobel Peace Prize. He can't.

This is bonkers. Why is this blatant theft legal?

UK: Anyone who has new Covid strain urged to 'stay home' by health officials Current variants: XFG.3 (35%), XFG (28%), NB.1.8.1 (11%), XFG.5 (7%), XFG.3.4.1 (7%). New strain “Stratus” linked to hoarse voice. If sick, avoid contact with vulnerable people and stay home if possible. archive.md/7qaIO

Not just Ottawa. Canada is a large service industry destination. All those shows...

Watching Lilith Fair. This was the era I grew up in. Feeling all the feels. Damn yo.

In an age of toxic rhetoric and escalating political violence we need to conjure the spirit of D'Arcy McGee. He gave his life for the principle that our nation will survive if we focus on what binds us rather than on what divides. charlieangus.substack.com/p/rethinking...

Sheldon Cooper didn’t trust the people of Oregon to help stop Canadians from invading California 😂😅🤣

The same guy telling you Portland is war-ravaged, told you Mexico was going to pay for the wall and people were eating your pets in Ohio.

The Cartoon Art Museum could survive indefinitely on a single $3 million endowment.

I thought Portland was super chill?

A man who blows into a conch shell in Hawaii gets a response he’ll never forget !

it’s biff’s world, we just live in it.

The Long Walk is brutal and written in 1979. Crazy.

Sinclair is caving and bringing back Kimmel. Money, folks. Public pressure. They dont have the numbers. Remember this and increase the efforts.

Oh

It's Friday. Remind your evangelical friends that Jesus didn't want them.

We’re between Soylent Green and Children of Men on the Sci-Fi timeline. Feels about right.

I *could* contribute to an argument on LinkedIn about the AI cesspool colonization of IP but today I choose to be happy.

Canada Post “lost” 1 billion dollars last year? How about, “it cost Canadians 1 billion dollars to have a national postal service” which works out to costing about $25 a year per person (population of Canada in 2024 = 40 million). Seems like a pretty reasonable cost to me.

Seems like a good time to remind people that Canada Post will deliver any piece of mail to federal elected officials for FREE. No stamp necessary! Just a reminder in case you, oh I dunno, wanna send your elected officials a sternly worded letter a day for a year or something.

I am joining the Quebec English-Language Production Council (QEPC) today as a Freelancer.

I don't want to use Fedex or UPS. UGH. I WANT to use and support Canada Post. Figure it out!

This might be akin to trying to pull a handful of gold out of a manure pile. Ain't gonna ever happen.

THIS.

Signed up for @networkisa.bsky.social today! Something new after Coverfly.

Who could have foreseen this?

Why are they just so awful?

“A growing number of scientists believe that the SARS-CoV-2 virus may instead be subtly altering our immune systems. If correct, their hypothesis will change how we understand everything from respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) to shingles to sepsis” www.bmj.com/content/390/...

My hero Jeff Tiedrich today: "it’s a trifecta of dumbfuck. it’s the Three Stooges of Science. on the left, the guy who knows more about dead bear cub kidnapping than all the dead bear cub kidnappers. on the right, the fake-diet-pill flim-flam man. and at the podium, Mister Let’s Drink Bleach."

what if it really is rapture day but there was only one person virtuous enough and they remained virtuous by living a quiet, solitary life and so nobody has noticed they’re gone and we’ll never know the rapture happened
