Points for whoever finds the exquisite Alfred Molina-related Easter egg in episode 2 of #TheBoroughs

You know what, humans had a good run maybe it’s time to give up and let another species be dominant on this planet. We certainly don’t deserve it.

We really wanted to introduce you to Vanilla. She has the daintiest handshake we've ever witnessed. 14/10 (IG: bordercollievanilla)

Alberta separatists vow to appeal petition denial as soon as US State Department tells them how

This is not surprising. So many people I know don’t want to visit during the World Cup. Why would anyone visit if they didn’t pay thousands for tix for game? Getting around will be a nightmare and our usual summer events have all been cancelled

This is absolutely unacceptable - for Canada or any country Contact your MP! dontsurveil.me/c22.html

By now, you might have heard that Mayor Ken Sim is trying one more time to roll back Vancouver’s green building standards, by bringing back a motion on May 20th which will effectively gut good climate policies in new building development. (1/7)

Outputs aren’t just substandard—they’re outright wrong. Someone close to me had notes in one of her patient files about her husband, dog, and recent knee surgery—none of which she had! A diff dr’s files listed incorrect medications and incorrect details about a past surgery! This is so dangerous!

Happy Victoria Day and National Patriots' Day! Victoria Day is the oldest official holiday in Canada, dating back to before Confederation. It has a long and fascinating history. This is the story of the holiday that starts summer for Canadians! 📸 Hulton Archive 🧵 1/12

I love not using AI. I love reading books written by human beings, hand-sewing little creatures, watching for bats during dusk, listening to human experts to learn about a topic. Not using AI is very fun.

MAMMAL BULLYING A REPTILE: Nice body temperature dude. Did the sun pick it out for you

This is a speech worth listening to, whoever you are currently supporting.

Vancouver's main Fan Festival viewing area for the World Cup at the new Hastings Amphitheatre is only free for 20% of entrants, with the remaining 80% paid tickets. Here's the tickets available for Canada's first game against Bosnia and Herzegovina. It's not going well.

It's ironic that I don't clean anything so well in my house as something I'm about to give away for free on my Buy Nothing Group

How ironic would it be if President "Windmills Cause Cancer" actually provided the final straw to break the fossil fuel industry?

Me hearing BlueSky mentioned on @taskmaster.tv tonight (thanks to @kumail.bsky.social’s embarrassing search history)

@copevancouver.bsky.social has some strong contenders for the next municipal election. I'm a @onecityvan.bsky.social member but open to voting for some of Cope's candidates as well. It sucks that hardly any of them are here on BlueSky.

There’s a glaring historical inaccuracy in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film of The Odyssey: they didn’t have cameras back then. Theatres should have a blank screen and an old man reading out the script

it's hard to name one thing I resent most about how AI has broken our society, but the fact that trust in reality is so shattered that we're just spending all day whispering "are you human?" at everything we stumble across with no real idea how to tell either way? fuckin' exhausting

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

I've said this for a while: If I ever win the lottery, I would buy a Toyota.

Students, if you’re thinking about dropping a note to that teacher or professor about what their class/project/mentorship has meant to you, but you worry it will be cringe or cheesy, let me just tell you they will coast on the fuzzy feelings prompted by that note for months, if not years

Something I just discovered today that is currently enraging me: this parcel of prime privately-owned Vancouver real estate, all 9.4 acres of it, appears to have been assessed in 2026 to have a land value of $1.39M and to have been charged only $13,426 in local taxes. *COUGH*expropriate*COUGH*

So, you didn't get the long form census? Same. 😡 That's why I've made The Long Form Census We All Wanted. It asks the REAL questions that Statistics Canada was too afraid to! 70+ questions across 9 categories. And yes, I will publish the full results. ✅ Take it now at census.todmaffin.com

The Radiohead one was spot on.

Grey whale is back and hanging around Sunset Beach (as of an hour ago)

Considering how deeply unpopular the whole AI-sphere is with the general public, this could be the winning strategy for the NDP to rebuild with. I know for myself that Carney's significant turn to the right means I could not vote for him again.

Speaking of which — when AI chatbots make mistakes, call them that: mistakes, errors, inaccuracies. “Hallucinations” is an unnecessarily jargony term that anthropomorphizes the chatbots. (5/x)

I firmly believe that if you helm a project that will cut some jobs by more than 40% so you can make your schlock entertainment, you should be stripped of your union membership and blacklisted from the industry

folx, I’ve been working on AI "ethics" for almost a decade now & hate to tell you there’s no such thing as "ethical AI" the only "ethical principle" that works is regulating the shit out of the industry & to take back control of our autonomy, fundamental rights, freedoms & right to exist w/out AI

We’re live. Two years ago, we released a plan. Today, our collectively owned music platform is open. Explore. Support artists directly. Join the co-op. It’s only the beginning. Sincerely Ours, Subvert

Congratulations to artist-owned music platform @subvert.fm on their launch! In honor of the occasion I’ve released the score to “The Edge of All We Know”, a film about the Event Horizon Telescope, exclusively to Subvert. Anyone can listen and if you’re a member, you can download it for free.

Am I the only person in BC who sleeps with their phone on DND and ringer set to silent? #AmberAlert

The issue with the AI industrial complex is not so much that it seeks to transform machines into sentient beings, but rather that it seeks to turn human beings into machines. The goal is to subjugate us not only physically under the demands of capital, but also to dominate us in the psychic realm

Surely they've suffered enough?

A new study shows the mechanisms of how coffee modifies the microbiome, reduces inflammation, and influences mood. Even decaf has its perks.

Whatever else we think about how Prime Minister Mark Carney is doing — and I’ve had no problem at all applauding him on a number of things — it’s undeniable that he’s been terrible so far on the #ClimateAction file, one of the most important leadership responsibilities of ANY national leader. #truth

If anyone in Mount Pleasant is wondering where all the smoke is coming from, there’s a house on fire on 17th between Columbia and Manitoba. It was being built, so hopefully on one was home but fire fighters are trying hard to save houses either side

Breaking: Trump announces plan to change the US’s national bird from the Bald Eagle to the Jim Crow.

This is a huge deal. If a senior journalist at one of our flagship news institutions, the NYT, can’t hold the line against misinformation and AI-generated bullshit, what hope can we hold for our democracy and society? It’s a gobsmacking betrayal of us all. Gddammm terrifying.
