I annotated the Globe and Mail's soaring cost of living chart, and it just might be possible to see the problem!
cc. @isabellamweber.bsky.social whose work demonstrates a lot of this is absolutely evil 'Sellers' Inflation', taking advantage of price shocks.

That $2.45BN valuation is entirely created by all the artists in the world whose music Suno stole to train their model.

So bummed reading analyses of how Spotify became profitable -- the below from Mark Mulligan/MIDiA gets the analysis correct.

Yesterday, in Ottawa, we went from a beautiful peaceful march in solidarity w/ Palestinians to being kettled in under 10 minutes. Nothing changed between the photo & video (see following skeet) other than police deciding to become violent.
Shameful.
