Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

Distressing. if not wholly surprising, news via new Telefilm report: Box office for Canadian films fell 40.9% in 2025 from year before, with homegrown movies capturing just 1.7% of Cdn market (down from 2.8% in 2024). 2025 was third-lowest performing year of decade for Cdn film, following '20 & '22.

This is good energy
This is for people who need honesty:
Do you want to help but don't know how? Have you not volunteered since community service was required in high school but want to? Do you desperately want to do something but the idea of giving up your only free time is a big hurdle?
I got you.

I was told my entire life I couldn't have autism bc of SBC "extreme male brain" stereotypes and I was a girly girl reading college level at 3rd grade and yet failing math.
They didn't know what to do with me except tell me I was a lazy little shit and acting stupid on purpose. Especially men

the people who spread the “female brains are bad at math and spatial reasoning” lies should be tried at the Hague
Another fun wrinkle from that period (that might still exist): I was good at math and loved it and then my geometry teacher told me that I'd probably struggle because female brains were bad at spatial thinking. I kept loving math & being good at it but assumed that would end so I ended it first.

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

Hey Toronto folks: do you have a favourite restaurant that needs some love or a little spruce up?
I'm assisting on a project that helps struggling eateries (sorry, super vague at the moment) and I need recommendations for businesses to reach out to.

I just want everyone to know that the creator of one of our favorite whistles (the micro bitonal) is a very nice man in Italy who has been messaging me asking if there are things he can tweak in the next version he is designing mostly to help us mass produce these more efficiently to fight ICE.

I've seen some discourse about how it seems like everyone in the elite circles knew about Epstein. I'm reminded of the piece of information about the Tuskegee Syphillis Study that I end classes with: Congress had hearings about the study and re-confirmed funding Every. Year. For. Forty. Years.
