RCMP are burning down the camps of forest protectors (incl. Elder Bill Jones' cabin) while everyone is distracted by the new pipeline outrage.

RCMP busted Cougar Camp in the upper Walbran Valley yesterday.

FACT: The BC NDP are far worse on old growth protection than BC Liberals were.

This path-to-a-pipeline MOU between Alberta and the federal government just keeps getting worse.

Luckily @karlamarx1917.bsky.social and @emilylowan.bsky.social joined me for a much-needed palate cleanser!

Here’s a taste:

This is tangential to the thread (which is about AI-dependency) but I'm reminded of the proprietary scripts and tools animation studios have for software which immediately leave me scrambling when I have to work on a project without them.

It's good to practice fundamentals!
somewhat related: getting too reliant on a (potentially expensive) black box tool that changes at the whim of a large corporation is not necessarily a good idea

Genuinely feels like there's been a coup within the Liberal party thanks to Carney and his bros.

Not to say Trudeau's Liberals were much better (they bought a pipeline!) but Carney is a full-blown red tory and I'm shocked more Liberals aren't outraged their party has been usurped like this.
Super cool that we've got a deal for a path towards a pipeline that's tied to a carbon capture project, as if that makes it okay

when carbon capture one of the most expensive and least effective options for addressing climate change, and oil companies often use it to EXTRACT MORE OIL!!!!

fuck man

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

AND WE CAN DO IT AGAIN
Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

I forgot to set my alarm last night so woke up past the "normal" hour of 9am and was actually annoyed because I have a project that I'm working on?? This is a new feeling
anyway the plus side of having a very short contract after a couple months off is that i wasn't working long enough to be burnt out, so now i can wake up at a semi-reasonable hour and actually Do Some Personal Work without it feeling like an affront to my true passion: "doing nothing in particular"

Fuck the border, fuck CBSA (Canadian Border Services Agency) - these people are just trying to make a living. Let them stay, you fascists
In the U.S., it’s common police departments don’t want to engage with immigration enforcement because it destroys trust with immigrant communities, notes Irene Bloemraad, a UBC sociology professor.
