Just wanted to let you know that the IRS has audited every president annually for decades now to ensure there was no corruption and the reason you didn't know that was because only one president found that to be a problem

I deeply resent Danielle Smith, leaders of Separatist movement and all their MAGA and Russian facilitators for making good people of Alberta feel this way. It’s an attack on their economy and psychology. For what? Oil? Trump? Its sick. We discuss on The OShow Scandal Panel 🔗

Starbucks is abruptly scrapping its AI inventory tool for repeatedly miscounting and mislabeling items, just months after rolling it out at stores nationwide. It's the latest warning that the widely-hyped "AI revolution" could be a bubble that's going to burst.

Sometimes I think the most offensive thing about our current billionaires is how hollow and crass they are. No Carnegie Libraries. No Ford endowment for arts or culture. None of the at least mildly redeeming efforts of earlier robber barons. Just egotistical crap, soulless AI, 'NPC' bullshit.

What is driving this folly? "Mayor Olivia Chow has called the province’s move a land grab without consultation. The committee heard the province does not have a business plan nor has it conducted any health or environmental studies on its expansion plans."

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

Sadly, I’m not at all surprised at this, since it was unlikely that Alberta’s awful Premier would let Ontario’s awful premier hold the title for “leader most likely to endanger people, make traffic congestion worse, & hurt the success of cities, all to score dumb ideological points with their base.”

Ottawa claiming we can’t have school streets because *waves hands* “resources” but all we would need to start with is a bunch of concrete planters. Cars can go around or turn around. It’s not actually that hard. It just takes prioritizing kids over cars and convenience.

Canada’s boycott wasn’t organized. It was organic. Reasons from friends, family, neighbours and Bluesky suggest it’s because Canada has a high literacy rate and over 60% of us have a college/university education; we listen, we read and quietly make up our minds. One Canadian at time.
