Prolific Poster

someone put their pronouns in their email signature in 2017 and now the world's most irksome Boer has my social security number

What this tells me is that nationalism is brittle and patriotism is durable

I think he might be our very best poster?

When I left Twitter I had a 1M followers and 100K tweets. You know what happen to me when it was all gone? Nothing. To the Twitter refugees who I see fretting about losing contacts and content by deleting Twitter, trust, you'll be fine. They have convinced us that we need them. Nope. They need US.

App idea. Search for what you want on Amazon, then this app shows you a small mom and pop store near you that has the same thing.

Twitter/X is a dangerous propaganda site. It's beyond me why anyone is still there. I had deleted all my tweets and locked my account... but deleted it yesterday. Please leave Twitter, everyone.

strong early pandemic vibes at the Costco today

Calgary is reversing its decision to remove fluoride from its water supply after experiencing a significant increase in dental decay and cavity treatments among children since the removal in 2011. www.thetimes.com/us/news-toda... via @snowhydro.bsky.social‬

The first Senators to actually do anything about the Trump admin

Never felt so patriotic 🇨🇦

Hey Canada, since we’re boycotting American products, maybe we should consider boycotting their ideology as well?

If Canada’s response to Trump’s tariffs is described as “measured” or “reasonable” our government has failed us. This is a “don’t blink” moment… our natural resources are one place where we have outsized strength - this is the moment we need to punch the bully as hard as possible & not back down.

🧪 If I were Canadian PM I would immediately: 1. Create a new $15B science fund 2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada 3. Immediate permanent residency 4. Citizenship after 2 years Overnight a science superpower

The job of congress isn't to come on here and tell us stuff, that's the media's job. Your job is to tell us what you're going to DO about it.

hey question, is this bad?

I would say 911 dispatchers provide a valuable service but it would be ok to criticize them if you called them and instead of sending an ambulance they said "Someone should do something about this!" and hung up

Toronto peeps, everyone ready to live on the shores of lake New York?

For all the doubters, how are these not the same?

Everyone excusing Elon Musk’s behavior due to his alleged autism should be chased into the sea with pitchforks it’s both profoundly insulting to autistic people and also obviously not true

Hey I called it

A little unsolicited advice to American liberals: the right does not care about being hypocrites. Pointing out their hypocrisy will accomplish nothing. If anything, they like that you are upset about it.

Welcome, teens coming here from tiktok. I think you’ll find that through the magic of the written word I am able to craft sentences that are as vivid and compelling as any short-form video!

Just making sure that everyone is aware of this crab that NOAA scientists found

Done. Deleted all my Meta accounts.

This is so well done. Offers visceral experience of what happened and sense of why two police officers have been charged www.thestar.com/interactives...

You can’t tell a story with bullet points.

what a beautiful natural experiment

So here's what's cool about my job: Yesterday morning I said, "We really ought to have TWIN PEAKS available." So then a bunch of people scrambled, worked really hard, and now you can watch every episode of David Lynch & Mark Frost's original series for free on Pluto TV: pluto.tv/us/on-demand...

The whole point of naming laws after victims is to stampede over the unpopular fact that the Bill of Rights revolves around protecting the rights of the accused

These are all great ideas, I hope this guy runs for President someday.

NEW: Meta has quietly dismantled the system that prevented misinformation from spreading in the United States. Machine-learning classifiers that once identified viral hoaxes and limited their reach have now been switched off, Platformer has learned www.platformer.news/meta-ends-mi...

"It’s not about the money. You see, taxes are an implicit acknowledgment that I exist within society and not above it. That my fate is tethered to the fate of humanity at large. That I am not the special little boy I’ve always believed myself to be."

This is a monumental day for the future of the open web, though it might not be obvious for a while. Mastodon matures its governance model with a great, solid non-profit blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/01/the-... and a coalition of independents push to open up Bluesky's AT Protocol: freeourfeeds.com

One of the biggest reasons they won’t age well is because they’re sweaty and desperate. These aren’t the moves of a string player who’s confident in their products, whose users are wowed by what they’re putting out. It’s flop-sweat energy, hoping that sucking up to the teacher will curve your grade.

"Bluesky is an opportunity to shake up the status quo. They have built scaffolding for a new kind of social web... But it will take independent funding and governance to turn Bluesky’s underlying tech—the AT Protocol—into something more powerful than a single app."

in order to restore our company’s masculine dominance we have decided to pander to every male authority figure and do whatever pleases them

it actually makes so much sense that a bunch of the most popular protein powders were found to be full of lead
