Other than establishment, anti-trans Newsom, a good bunch.

this is the fundamental trick the AI corporations pulled on us: they made the interface to the LLM a "chat", forcing our human biases to attribute thought, feelings, reason and intelligence to the text prediction engine.

Do you know how horrible it is to be a grand of girl children about to be subjected to years of what their mother experienced and I did as well? The caustic results of living hunted are extreme. And completely unfair. Share the burden, men. Take down harassers and rapists and jokesters.

Hold the phone, are you telling me that the guy on the right created a chatbot that is producing child pornography? And are you also telling me that the President whose campaign he funded and who was Jeffrey Epstein's "best friend" for a while wants to prevent any form of AI regulation? Weird.

Seems like he’s having a cognitive test once a month now?

Same. And I want it right now.

A computer must never apologize because a computer can never be held responsible.

They're not "FIXING" anything, there's no way to do this.

“Brazilian researchers found that covid-19 triggered a sharp rise in T cell exhaustion and cellular ageing…the strongest effects were seen in CD8+ T cells, which suppress latent viruses such as EBV and VZV. These effects were seen even after mild infections.” www.bmj.com/content/390/...

TikTok now. Plus in search term Feminism and you get endless takes on why feminism was bad, is still bad, and will be bad news going forward. It’s absurd and tedious. Alongside this, I see young women (almost always white) waking up to their rights in big ways.

Wholeheartedly agree. My TV screen has gotten relentlessly WHITE, CIS, STRAIGHT, ABLE BODIED, NT and boring as shit. News, true crime, drama, action. White, white, white, white, white. Netflix may not be kissing the ring, but they’re KISSING THE RING.

(In Canada) Let's make this year the year that spreading preventable viruses to one another becomes more socially unacceptable. We have the tools (respirator masks 😷)

This year and every year, 8 episodes is JUST TOO SHORT.

I'm old enough to remember when smoking around others was socially acceptable, in restaurants, bars, workplaces etc. Secondhand smoke was everywhere. We changed norms once we accepted that shared air = shared risk. Airborne viruses are no different

Sometimes people have bad years. While it’s always good to have gratitude, it is also okay not to pretend you had a list of accomplishments and wins if you didn’t. You are not bringing down the vibe if 2025, of all godforsaken years, was bad. You can have hope for the future and still be honest.

A remarkable story for the new year: substack.com/@kristenkrol...

Happy new year to one and all around the globe. May we all have easier times ahead.

Since 2009, PolitiFact has marked the end of each year by naming a "Lie of the Year." This year, there were so many to pick from that they instead named 2025 "The Year of the Lies." This really isn't sustainable....

Something to cheer you. Are you noticing it yet? www.reference.com/science-tech...

Southern BC decided on a beautiful, warm sunny day to usher out the new year.

Damn this is Brilliant!!!

Oh, heavens. (As it were.)

Canadian temps should be panicking @mark-carney.bsky.social.

If this year was about getting off US tech, 2026 is the year to reassess the digital revolution — what works, what doesn’t; what to keep, and what to reject. I’ve only just started to consider what needs to change about how I use digital technology, but I’m excited to learn more next year.

Kellyanne Conway needs to get herself a wife.

The very best bed warmer I know of. A hot water bottle. Cheap, more safe than electric blanket, long-lasting, and so very efficient.

Can we pls stop behaving as if sharing diseases in public spaces is GOOD LIVING?

Requiring masks for only certain areas of the hospital is as useful as the smoking sections we used to have on planes and in restaurants. The smoke didn't stay in its section and neither will airborne viruses.

Terms I'd like the media to leave behind in 2025 : "non-consensual sex" (It's rape. You mean rape, so say that. We don't call bar fights 'non-consensual boxing' for a reason!) "underage girls" (Girls are a category on their own. If you mean girl, say girl. If you mean woman, say woman.)

Tatiana Schlossberg has passed away at 35. Please read this beautiful essay she published last month. It's one of the best things I've read in a long time. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

I hate neolibs, I have to say. The worst of conservativism meshed with small to large parts of the best social justice of the left.

Since 2015, Canada's oil and gas production has increased by a third and greenhouse gas emissions remain high. With the current federal government, we should expect these trends to continue—at great cost to the planet and the public. @hadrianmk.bsky.social www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

Wanted to see if this pos really existed. It does. Donald Barr, father to Bill, writing about sex trafficking of kids, was the guy who hired Epstein at Dalton. Makes sense to me that trafficking was already transpiring and JE was slotted in. Might xplain why he rose:

insert jokes about soft and hard power

Well, this is disgusting on so many levels @mark-carney.bsky.social. feeltheheat.blog/2025/11/06/c...

I think we should ask them when their last prostate exam was and what the results were, and when they’re taken aback, just say, “Oh, I thought we were asking for private medical info now."

Area woman wakes up, sees another pediatrician post a bunch of maskless selfies with "child advocate" proudly displayed in their bio. Nope, you're not a child advocate if you don't mask around them at work.

So if you remove Trump’s central premise in negotiations that Putin “wants peace,” and substitute that for the premise that he really wants conquest and subjugation, how is our current strategy of negotiated appeasement useful in getting this resolved?

Isn’t it time for each of us to ask every unmasked doctor if they know LC is the leading childhood chronic illness, and if they’ve written to PH to ask for mitigations in classrooms?

Exhibit A, indeed.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Canadians! Don’t let this happen here!

CONGRATULATE ME! 40 years ago today I had my first heart attack, was sent home from an ER bed bc “wrong age and gender,” therefore disabling heart damage. Docs gave me a year to live. It’s been a painful anginal grind every day, but here I am, I did it! I DID IT! I've thanked my body profusely!

A monumental waste of money, all to try to trick U.S. evangelicals into continuing to support Trump as a “protector of Christians.”

1. Sometimes, the absurdity of the situation we're all in just hits me. Going forward, ongoing and continuous transmission of SARS-CoV-2 will lead to an ever-increasing percentage of the global population developing chronic illnesses due to sequelae of infection.
