You're doing the opposite of progress. You're leaning hard into yesteryear ideals and imposing policies the US conservatives imposed on the US two decades ago. You're bringing back Reaganism hard. That is NOT progress.

More of Doug Ford's signature graft. It's been said before, but when will we get it? Everything Doug Ford does is corrupt. No exceptions.

Do you remember during the pandemic when Doug Ford gave $2.5 million to Facedrive, a company that was making COVID-19 tracking bracelets that ended up being a scam? Doug Ford gave that CEO more of your tax dollars recently. #ontario #onpoli #dougford #frankdomenic🍁

I will never believe that Harris lost the election. I will always be convinced that the election was stolen. The horror we are experiencing is the result of a successful coup.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

It’ll probably suggest MAID for some of us.
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) paid $18 million for a chatbot named Charlie, which the auditor general reported gave her team the wrong answer 66% of the time.
The chatbot's responses were found to be brief and lacking context, with only 2 out of 6 questions answered accurately.

Doesn’t everyone use religion as a crutch? Isn’t that all organised religion really is: a crutch? A way for them to hypocritically judge others harshly while excusing their own sins and indiscretions?

George Michael hits #1 today in 1987 with “Faith”.
“.. It was very much about having faith in yourself,” he said. “It wasn’t a religious song at all — it was about believing in yourself when everything around you is changing and people are questioning what you’re doing.”
