I already don't like OpenAI and they are doing everything they can every day to prove me right. Love me some confirmation bias.

This man stood there and said, hey, why are Liberals obsessed with dismantling centuries of critical colonial thinking? Why should we protect boys from a manliness rooted in dying in senseless wars? And most of all, why shouldn't I begin this whole argument on Canadienness with American examples?

Every once in a while a story reminds me of a newspaper article from the mid-century I came across as a student years ago: A White woman raised the alarm about a Black man hiding under her bed. Police came to the rescue only to find it was just a pair of shoes peaking from under her bed...

Disabled activist and prolific writer Alice Wong of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed away.

Below are her final words, I particularly love the line:

“I’m honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way of the future”

Rest in peace and power Alice.

Where will women's sport go from here if it continues to cannibalize itself like this?
From @karleighchardonnay.bsky.social at Outsports:

Jennifer Sey, who said the NWSL had “several males” has issued a $10,000 bounty to the next player to “speak out like Elizabeth Eddy.” An anonymous donor added $5000. Clay Travis said he’d double it.

NEAT.

It just feels like everything is being flattened. Rape, genocide, wildfires, etc etc is all just fodder for internet discourse rather than turning points that lead to… something, anything better or different.
It’s so true. It’s actually horrifying to see the memes and jokes about this.

Perhaps the wildest thing about this all is that AI is dumb af at all of these jobs.
How is AI *really* impacting jobs?

Henley Chiu, the CTO of Revealera, a jobs data analysis firm, analyzed 180 million jobs listings in 2024 and 2025, in an effort to find out. Chiu found an:

-8% drop in all jobs postings
-~30% drop in art, photography, writing jobs
-22% drop in journalism jobs
What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?

CBC is just so...
They did a story on brain drain and 3 Americans hired at UofT. Barely gave space to the CAUT president about how Canadian unis can barely support canadian scholars let alone some sort of surge... No, no, please tell us more about how hyped UofT's president is.

I would like to know why the CBC movie critic man is the one reporting on the US obsession with Venezuela on the National... What happened to staying in your lane?

These days, whenever I check in on CBC News it is a mess.

Some people hate others enough to sell their soul to the devil for it. These same people claim that the devil exists. Makes you wonder... Is the greatest trick the devil ever played to convince the world it doesn't exist, or was it to convince the world the devil exists outside of people themselves?
