canada continuing to drop the ball on taking tech policy seriously
Canada did a consultation on a new national AI strategy, formed an expert task force to write 32 reports, then used AI to analyze the responses & reports. The result is a summary that strings together 100s of vague action items & flattens nuance and policy trade-offs into false consensus

The party that backed genocide and called anyone protesting it terrorists the same party that told you go back to work even if it kills you because we won’t stop a pandemic and will give the money that was earmarked for pandemic protections to the cops is now normalizing fascist death squads

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

Fuck national pride. My nationalistic spirit comes from gratitude, not pride. Even then, we've let bad men fuck up the good things our country has going for itself, like our healthcare system. Neoliberals have made cynics of us all!

I am terribly sorry to interrupt your doomscrolling, but tonight's Low Quality Ad is for Kii the Kiwi. Look how adorable he is. It is absolutely monstrous that people chop kiwis up into little green spheres and sell them at grocery stores.

Intrigued. I've frothed about the excellent Wildsea #ttrpg before, and Eternal Ruins seems to build on that excellent foundation of exploration, but with a side order of what I can only describe as "loneliness". Wild Words is a solid iteration of FitD/PbtA principles as well. Worth a look.
The #EternalRuins #RPG is live on #Kickstarter now! I co-wrote this one with Rob Leigh, a new Wild Words game to showcase the ancient megastructure created by worldbuilder Sam Carr, and it was *particularly* lovely to work on.

Mamdani is proving what we all suspected. The Democrats didn’t want him to win because they knew he’d succeed and show how it’s not just possible to fix things- it’s actually pretty fucking easy.
Incredible contrast between this and Keir Starmer running a delivery driver over
Mamdani Forces Delivery Apps to Pay Back $4.6 Million Cheated From Drivers
New York City's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has already scored a major win for deliveristas working for three delivery giants.

while it's cool that you could buy HRT using the pedo currency I do think it's worth understanding that you're using the pedo currency
I’m sorry but what did libertarians think that the anonymous money laundering racism coin that you could only functionally use for illicit activity was doing other than this, exactly

I have heard that they've been walling off social progressives since as far back as those days, yes, but I didn't have any material on those days!

Confirms what I've been thinking privately about the NDP, that it's been rotten from the inside from jump since at least the Tom Mulcair days. Stifling leftist ideas & turning the NDP into just another pro-corporation party w/ nothing new to say. Kingmakers chained to FPTP voting.
May they be well.

My family kept saying I was too cynical. But I couldn't have even envisioned this level of permitted evil.
I want to see someone argue that we need to 'stay the course' after all this just to see this rubbed in their face.
