I am once again asking the Canadian and New Brunswick governments to stop using Twitter/X and avoid all products and services provided by corporations controlled by Elon Musk.
One example of how Grok is being used to target women. Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch being sexualised, degraded, and humiliated step-by-step by Grok. All the images accurately reflect the prompts provided.

I'm convinced our great-grandchildren will be appalled by the idea of our current air quality the way we think about not having clean water - that, if the situation exists, it's a burden and a health hazard and needs to be rectified. Not just accepted the way it is now.

When will we NOT mask, you back-to-normies ask?
When we have UVC light & HEPA filtered air everywhere—like we have clean water. When everyone has paid sick days & normalize staying home. When masking is required in hospitals & medical settings. Even then, some of us still have to 😷 so get over it.

Post transplant situation here and all the back-to-normies can think to ask is: "When will you guys NOT have to mask?"
Meanwhile they've all been sick for most of December.
Gawd, my head hurts from all the willful ignorance flowing across this land.

Incredibly stupid of Poilievre to back Trump's Venezuela coup. He's just cemented the impression that he's Trump's toady. Completely missing the mood of Canadians. Maybe the Natty Post will try to bail him out.

This statement is no better than Poilievre's statement. The orange felon isn't going to respect democracy or the Venezuelan people. He is trading a "socialist" dictator for a fascist military government. You need to be calling out the illegal actions of the US government and planning our defense.
Please see my statement on the situation in Venezuela:

It is important to remember that putting thoughts about someone killing a political leader or decapitating the government of a country out into the world on social media sites isn't the best way to go about our day.

As we all said, international law, such as it was, no longer exists. The United States, following Israel’s precedent, considers itself to have the explicit authority to blatantly violate sovereignty anywhere in the world and abduct even leaders of other states.
There are no guardrails whatsoever.

After this, the EU should absolutely proceed on the assumption that Trump meant what he said about Greenland. Nothing is off the table anymore.

Every American should be ashamed of who we are and what we have become as a nation today. We have a long history of military misadventures and even crimes but the attacks we have been conducting on Venezuela are among the most wanton, egregious and least defensible acts we’ve ever conducted.

Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.

So what is to stop Putin from flying a team in to steal away the Latvian President? To stop Xi from flying a team in to steal away the Singapore leader? Oh right, you make them an even more powerful symbol and stir up support in the country that will galvanize against you even more. Idiocy...

Didn’t you just get one 12 months ago?
I’m not getting you another one for you to just throw it away come next January.
You have over two thousand years to choose from already, you don’t need another.
So wasteful.

Most of a bag of salt down on my ice sheet. Far easier than shoveling, just hope the temps don't drop to far to fast so it has a chance to break it up a bit. Good luck out there to the runners.
