"And I never say no"
We need to have a serious talk about the way "AI companion" apps not only prey on the vulnerable, but are priming their users to ignore consent and to conflate love with control.
We need AI regulations across so many sectors, but this area is particularly horrifying.

Very interesting video that sums up the limited amount of knowledge we currently have on TikTok/Reels/Shorts' impact on our cognition.
TL;DW: There are signs that it's the scrolling + removing choice + short videos combo that is bad, not short form per se

Yes, other factors are important. And some of them are even more important.
It's the social sciences. Very rarely is there a single, unicausal factor, that drives 100% of change

Avec un référendum sur la souveraineté du Québec qui s'en vient, je commence à réfléchir à quel sera mon vote.
Quand je vois des groupes qui associent "Québécois" à une ethnie et qui excluent systématiquement dans la définition toutes les générations d'immigrants, je n'ai pas le goût du Oui.

BREAKING TODAY: Vancouver Council finally passed UNANIMOUSLY building bylaw changes allowing single-stair buildings up to 6 storeys, with a @lucymaloney.bsky.social amendment for corresponding zone changes. Congratulations to all who’ve championed this including @lanefab.com & @holz-bau.bsky.social.
Single stair code changes coming to @cityofvancouver.bsky.social council today.
It’s been several years of work getting to this point.
It’s not everything that I’d want but it’s a good first step, with external single stairs and low/mid rise scissor stairs as entirely new housing options.

La carte électorale du Québec devra être revue pour 2026
La loi 59, qui a annulé le processus, est « inconstitutionnelle », tranche la Cour d'appel. Les circonscriptions devront donc être redessinées.
