ProPublica identifies Pretti's killers

Canadians horrified by what ICE is doing should realize the RCMP uses the same tactics domestically against Indigenous people and yet barely anyone speaks up. Journalists have been arrested just for trying to cover it

Really annoyed that an Apple iMac bought in Feb 2023 stopped working with no warning and needs its logic board replaced + the option to expand the memory no longer exists. Less than three years old. The last two Mac’s that I owned lasted two years. Really disappointed by the huge drop in quality. 🤬

Canada has lost its measles elimination status. A sad day, a win for anti-vaccine ignorance and politicized public health, a new age where children, families, and communities will face additional health risks for no good reason other than the comfort of joining others with similar fact-less beliefs.

For @spitfirenews.com I wrote about "ChatGPT induced psychosis," how the chatbot distorts reality for all of its users, and why, despite what feels like growing pressure to conform to the hype, I still won't use it (and I'm not missing out) spitfirenews.com/p/why-i-stil...

I spent the week at the police surveillance convention and let me tell you my biggest observation: The name of the game now is consolidating as much information as humanely possible from surveillance devices, the internet, other governmental data, and literally a million other places. 🧵

The next time Jimmy Carr harps on about free speech he should never be allowed to forget that, in order to co-headline (?) with Louis CK in the big comedy wash, he had to sign a contract promising to be mega-woke for Saudi Arabia. deadline.com/2025/09/atsu...

The silver lining about the Riyadh comedy festival is that there’s really just one comic that it’s disappointing to see doing it. Coulda been worse!

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.
