*looooooooong sigh*

i don't know which AI system my friend tried but it refused to believe Carney, the current PM of Canada was the PM. even after they challenged the AI system it doubled down and was still wrong. for whatever reason these systems are being adopted and they should be viewing with extreme scrutiny.

cool, cool, i also received my settlement for the bread price fixing scandal but the price of bread is still absurd so what's the point of all this?!

Since 1954, the Canadian five-dollar banknote has featured various parts of Canada's landscape, wildlife and culture. In the first of a series I am working on, I am exploring the items that have appeared on our currency. Today we begin with the $5 bill. 🧵 1/8

Suspended with pay cracks me up. What can I do where I keep my pay but am required to stay away from my job? Also can this be until I am of retirement age?

Bradford, of course, isn't the one to do the heavy lifting of police reform either. So we're staring down the barrel of another election cycle in which policing gets a free pass.

This is absolutely true. The presidents we would have previously held up as examples of corruption have been repeatedly lapped by Donald Trump.

this will inevitably lead to an artificial womb to make more (white) babies. and if so i say implant them in the men and they can go thru pregnancy and delivery themselves. #shutters

customer support sent me an email today saying that they've refunded $5 but then i check my account and they've double dinged me for my single trip because i messed up the taps. so instead of paying $17 for my trip, i've paid $34 and of course you can't reply to those emails so here we go again 😕

The Doug 'Lets keep everyone drunk' Ford years continue 🙄

Trump says his life was better before he became president. Dude, everybody's life was better before you became president.

show me how this will actually improve my life. so far, other than science research, which i want, i've seen little. also can we move beyond the internet at a money generation tool?

Carney announces environment to be eliminated as cost-cutting measure

just got our first heat warning of the year. good thing no one on the continent is burning coal for energy. 🙄

well this pretty much ensures i'll never be able to become an american citizen and i'm completely fine with that!

the one that Ford cancelled before completion here in Ontario, some had gone back to school and had to stop due to the cancellation. i always add that you will never completely solve the unhoused problem but you can help those who are looking for help and willing to do it.

we have to same nonsense in toronto.

nipped out of town for a quick visit with some friends in KW. if you're able to travel at odd hours, thursday morning and friday afternoon in this case you can get there and back by GO train. as for paying for the system i'm still baffled. i have been on trains since i was 5 years old...

One thing the United States is famous for is the lack of large event spaces.

if AI is indeed making bad citations and making things up, it's basically a typical teen on a essay deadline and therefore far too immature to be considered for work.

Health care is one area where I don’t mind seeing the government spend whatever it takes to guarantee system-wide excellence. The other is education.

Including the one running Canada right now. I wish we'd just get on with it.

What's so frustrating is that there are some benefits to having digital records. Particularly is you use a clinic with multiple doctors but this is why people don't trust. AI, if it will ever be the solution, is not stress tested enough yet. As this makes apparent

America, in a nutshell

There was a 10k run today down Yonge Street and of course someone complaining it messes things up. Really, you can't check the news or social media to see what's going on. If you live in a bigger city, or any city, during the summer there are events almost every weekend. Get over it.

Marathon down Yonge Street and that meant loud cheers and cowbells all before work.

as i stood on the platform at Wellesley waiting for this to clear it occurred to me that delays are no longer the exception. they are now the norm.

Fill out your census by May 12, 2026. It helps you, your family, your community and historians like myself. Your census information determines a lot of things, and can help historians and your descendants tell your story a century in the future. youtube.com/shorts/eohlw...

for the census nerds, i got the long form.

so now all the companies that stopped using Canada Post for their deliveries need to go back. the service appeared to be amazing, and honestly we need to keep CP going.

hey my fellow ontarian's, do non branded shoe store even exist anymore? i've been buying my shoes mostly at Winners & Mark's and i tried the local shoe store - Corso in my area but i don't really like what's out there. i know the branded ones exist but what else? #lookingforcutebutcomfy

if they were smart they'd blame the missing bottle on a canadian...

I continue to be flabbergasted that other (non-insane) governments aren't making similar changes. The Canadian government won't shut up about how important "digital sovereignty" is, and then it pours resources into posting everything to Twitter and Facebook.

i have a really off colour comment in my head about this.

Didn't have anywhere specific to be this morning but the sun was shining so went downtown. Too cold to sit in the park. The church had a welcome sign out but I was bogged down by bags. I have been into this church before but it's always fun to see the insides of these buildings.

it's the 21st century. we shouldn't be fighting for funding or debating if transit is affordable. we're in a climate crisis and we should absolutely have access to transit. but that also means it needs to be funded and be intercity. we should be cancelling car ownership.
