I talked to @ckunzelman.bsky.social about his Assassin’s Creed book, which turned into wide ranging conversation about how everything in entertainment is basically trying turn us into conspiracy theorists

Conspiracy Thinking Is Flourishing. Some of Our Most Popular Franchises Aren’t Helping.
Video games may be turning players into conspiracy theorists, but so is everything else.

JK Rowling got a full *decade* of press as a martyr for being "cancelled" (declared passe by people online) and meanwhile nobody considers it very interesting that a prominent left wing author is basically banned from entering or publishing in the United Kingdom for her politics
so this is like, one of the biggest free speech infringements by a western democracy in our lifetimes right?

Yesterday was powerful gathering against Apple exploitation and complicity in genocides in Congo & Palestine
I was arrested & facing bogus charges
Vancouver increased its police budget by 40% (!) over past three yrs. Effects are felt daily by targeted communities plus ⬆️ criminalization of dissent

My friend @harshawalia.bsky.social was arrested and charged, and another protester was brutalized today in Vancouver at a protest targeting Apple for profiting from death and exploitation in its supply chain. The protesters also called out Apple's support of Friends of the IDF.

You’re telling me AI is actually a class issue? I’m shocked.
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

The looting of aid in Gaza by "humanitarian rights organisations-backed Hamas" was -of course- actually by Israel, because Israel lies, Western media just prints it, and now a year later the rectification is published after the Palestinians are dead already.

Wildest thing about “Your Woman” is that it is written by a Marxist about how shitty what we would have once called “brocialists” are to the women in their lives.
I once made a tweet about Your Woman and how wild it is it samples a song now over a century old, and the person behind White Town found it and wrote a very appreciative reply, and I’m remembering this because I’m currently listening to Your Woman, which still slaps

Every time you see that the government is trying to raise our military spending to 5% of GDP, think about the fact that our total elementary and secondary school spending is 3.9% of GDP.

Even if the Alberta government doesn’t get a pipeline built, never underestimate their ability to leverage projects to nowhere that move public dollars into private pockets.
Meanwhile, they’ll divide FNs against one another and deepen colonial harms. It’s their MO, and increasingly Carney’s too.

plus obliterating Indigenous consultation through ministerial discretion, which is the win-win for the UCP and feds. Now the UCP get to combine lack of consultation with virtually unlimited criminalization powers via Critical Infrastructure Act.

Canada’s top political leaders are climate deniers. There’s no such thing as “decarbonized” oil and no environmentally conscious way to increase fossil fuel production.
Mark Carney and his government are sacrificing the climate and baking in worse natural disasters in the hope of short-term profit.
