My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I can't focus at all. Oh yeah, I need to drink it.

The biggest grocery chain in #Canada (Loblaw) is HATED. People working corporate there get training and little cards to remind them how to talk and their work at dinner conversations. Same playbook as Palantir. https://infosec.exchange/@josephcox/114353896932919597

Been watching #TheResidence and thought I recognized the art in the opening credits. It’s by #MairaKalman. I have a couple of her books. https://www.townandcountrymag.com/leisure/arts-and-culture/a64240924/maira-kalman-the-residence-interview-2025/ #UzoAduba

A regular reminder that you can like the Handmaid's Tale, but Margaret Atwood is still a Feminism-Appropriating Radical Transphobe. I recommend 🏴‍☠️ so we don't fund her hate & anti-housing causes.

Years ago, I was talking to a second-language teacher, and they said that at some partially fluent point in your language journey, most learners will start focusing on either vocabulary, grammar, or pronunciation/accents. When I learned English, my focus was heavily pronunciation and adapting […]

Look, I'm not anti-Carney, believe it or not. I like the push for housing, and I personally have plenty to gain with a Liberal government. I want you to make your vote cost him an apology to the intersex community. Pressure your MPs to make demands for their leader to do better. Vote for them […]

Happy birthday to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, aka the Canadian Constitution. And to celebrate, we have a Prime Minister (and likely the next Prime Minister,) who said "there are two sexes". Happy rights day, folks. Everything will be fine, right? #canada #cdnpoli

To qualify as debates, all debates should have a dedicated fact check team. Every lie creates an interruption with a statement of the objection, the person who said the lie is given 10 seconds to correct their statement, but they lose 30s of time per lie. Debates aren't debates when one side […]

When leaving the all candidate debate, I overheard a couple of Liberal supporters (theme for the week?) saying how the pro-Palestine supporters can't be appeased by anything that the sitting Liberal MP could say. Actually, no. Here are a list of words and phrases that would get the protestors […]
