Teacher; Polish/Canadian; sun-savvy mom. My politics are: pro-people, pro-planet, anti-billionaire.

Things that work: labour unions, universal healthcare, vaccines, consumer protections, cheap shampoos.
It’s twice as many native words as our second language words, actually. Do your research, Beaverton.

Actually I miss the old Eastern European experience of the cashier being annoyed that I’m taking a few too many minutes to make up my mind. I mean they’ve served the same selection of pierogies for a decade.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

“OpenAI is getting ready to run hat in hand to the taxpayer for subsidies.” After losing more than $13 billion this year, OpenAI officials are angling for a bailout. From @ryanlcooper.com:

OpenAI Is Maneuvering for a Government Bailout - The American Prospect
For artificial intelligence to ever pencil out, some truly enormous revenue streams will be required. And if you need trillions of dollars for data centers forever, there’s only one entity to turn to: Uncle Sam.

NYT wholly cowed by the most unpopular president ever. Embarrassing.
President Trump posted what appeared to be an A.I.-generated video on social media showing him wearing a crown and flying a jet labeled “King Trump” that dumps brown liquid on protesters. He shared the video on Saturday, the same day that protesters participated in mass “No Kings” demonstrations.

Trump got his COVID19 vaccine today.

He will always have access to everything he needs to maintain his health while denying others the same.

Liberals to Canola industry (total export value: $7.7 billion): take $370 million, please!

Liberals to Post-Secondary Education (total export value $11B from tuition, more if you count foreign student spending in Canada): drop dead.

What kind of economy are we building, again?
