Family movie night: Dirty Dancing. My wife's choice. Um... We'll see how this goes.

This isn't surprising but we need much better laws and enforcement of those laws when it comes to AI. There was a recent story of a highschool student who begged the school to do something about the boy turning her photos into AI porn and they did nothing. I think there should be fines similar to

Guys. Cheese is the best.

It's been a long week, but we made it to another Friday. Cheers, fellas. 🍻

The US ambassador wants us to honor our deal to buy 88 F-35 jets. Oh, so now agreements matter? I don't think we should buy them. He's framing this deal as a necessity to continue trade talks. Fuck'em. If we give into this, Trump will just demand more. www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

A coworker had a pair of waders that never got used so she offered them to me knowing I enjoyed fishing. My wife's response...

Lol

Lol. How is Trump nicer to Mamdani than the Democratic leadership? What an embarrassment.

It doesn't matter what economic sector you look at; All across the board, Canadians have held up the US boycott with no end in sight. I said earlier this year that when Trump decided economic war, that we would move on without the US. It's working. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Tomorrow is a Pro D Day for teachers so the girls have no school. Which means a family movie night. Going to finish off the Back to the Future franchise with Part III. The kids have been enjoying these. My wife? Not so much. #filmsky

I give my daughter big props for how she's on top of her homework every week. I was never like that. I relied on the fact that I was just smart enough to procrastinate with homework and studying and throw something together at the last minute. She's not like that. She actually does the work.

'alleged culinary crime' Lol. That said, I don't like it when restaurants fuck with traditional Korean dishes so I guess I can understand.

Wife: A coworker got me honey for my birthday! Me: Honey? That's an odd gift. The honey:

Book haul. Franny and Zooey - J.D. Salinger Invisible Man - Ralph Ellison Life for Sale - Yukio Mishima This Side of Paradise - F. Scott. Fitzgerald #booksky

My wife asked me last night if I wanted to go to her work Christmas party and I said yes. She just looked at me and said, "Really? You never want to go." This is untrue. It's just that usually they have no budget so there's never a +1. Still, I know I'll end up in the corner nursing a beer.

“Netflix’s apparent agreement to abide by existing contractual obligations that they might inherit says nothing about a meaningful commitment to theatrical exhibition.” EXISTING. They would honor existing contracts. No certainty on future theatrical. deadline.com/2025/11/netf...

He's correct in that Netflix could face regulatory scrutiny. Paramount in that sense has the easiest route because of their current relationship with Trump. TBH for me this is a pick your poison situation. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

I spent lots of time chatting with the Nazi bot on Nazi dot com and giving ad revenue to the world’s richest Nazi in order to create these screenshots that you’ll hate. Enjoy

Grok has been reprogrammed to say Musk is better than everyone at everything, including blowjobs, piss drinking, playing quarterback, conquering Europe, etc.

Trump just gifted F-35s to his new best friend Mohammed bin Salman. Saudi Arabia didn’t make any concessions, but they are building four Trump-branded developments. From Robert Kuttner: trib.al/MFKMhE3

I prefer working in branches primarily run by women, because there's always freshly scented stuff around that makes the workplace smell better and feel less like purgatory.

Survey: "What was your takeaway from the conference?" Professional credits. "Why did you attend the conference?" Professional credits. I mean, I didn't spend a week of my life there for shits and giggles, you know?

Work: Congrats to Mary on her promotion! Me:

Haha. Eat it, Jesus.

"We share a lot of the same values... We are high trust egalitarian societies... And we believe in openness but that openness should not be used against us." Agreed. Welcome.

Today's over the top group chat comment: "Good morning everybody! Can't wait for today, this whole week has been so exciting!"

My wife the other day to our kids: I don't want you to be afraid of the police. You can trust them. Me: Don't trust them too much. Let me tell you about institutionalized racism...

I am actually looking forward to this. I would love the Green Lantern universe to be done justice for once.

As a parent, you wonder how your kids will turn out. My oldest daughter loves sports, roughhousing, men's clothes and flannel. Look... It's not a lock, but all I'm saying is I won't be surprised, you know? It's all good.

If you can't beat'em, exploit'em. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

My wife's coworker had her first baby and refused to post any photos of their child. I get it. I don't disagree with that. But their reasoning was they didn't want AI to steal their kid's information. This is like trying to not breathe in polluted air. Good luck to them.

This is is the second time in a month the Alberta government has invoked the notwithstanding clause. The first time was to end the teacher's strike. This is why you cannot trust the government with this sort of power because it is ripe for abuse. globalnews.ca/news/1153187...

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a wonderful piece of Pacific Northwest literature, about the human spirit vs the system, and the film is one of my favourites of all time. Watching this in 4K last night was glorious. #filmsky

At the gym there's a boy who won't stop yapping. If he's not shit talking, he's complaining. I guess the coach had enough of him because he told my daughter, "Shut him up." So she armbarred the kid 3 times in a row. He was still talking shit until the third armbar.

Taking care of another advisor's clients has been eye opening because my clients never want to see me. They're all, "Just make me money. Leave me alone." This other advisor's clients want to meet and hang out over basic things that could be done via email. It's been interesting.

Lol oh no. It's a long story but apparently the arbitrator fucked up and their reasoning wasn't solid so not only did the $25K award to the tenant get reversed, but the tenant was told to pay the landlord's legal fees. Big oof. vancouversun.com/news/residen...

Apropos of nothing, this popped into my head.

What you don't want someone to say on a virtual meeting: "Oh my goodness. The audience can hear us!"

Pierre Poilievre's unfavorability rate just keeps increasing. He still has 80% of the support of his base but everyone else hates his guts. He's a twerp that has shown he hasn't learned anything and cannot pivot. I hope he stays as Conservative leader. It's hilarious. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

When I'm doing these multi day conferences, I like to be super sarcastic in the chat. "Hi guys! It's day 3! I can't wait for all the awesome AI information I'm going to get!"

These microgreens are pretty good. They're good on sandwiches or sometimes I just eat a pile of them. The first time I had them I felt like a rabbit but I like them now.

My max bid was $235M. They totally overpaid. Suckers.

I was at the book store and overheard an employee complain how once a week she has to fix where the Sherlock Holmes books go. She puts them under Doyle, and someone comes and moves them under Conan. "His last name is DOYLE. I'm going to have to do surveillance. I will catch them." I'd be mad too.

TX filing at SCOTUS will presumably focus on whether it is too close to the election season for courts to intervene, but the lower court addressed that, saying that if an injunction wasn't imposed it would "incentivize" states to delay before making big changes so there's no time to litigate.

A client of mine had a stroke just last week. She said she felt fine and that nothing seems wrong. She said she saw a doctor. Today I got an email from her that made no sense. Full of unnecessary blanks and typos. I called her back and recommended she go back to her doctor.

He has made every single person and thing he's touched in his life worse. The world is worse for his existence. We all suffer for the failures of the social, cultural, political, and economic systems that allow him to exist.
