Authoritarianism is here.

At one point, all of us have asked ourselves, “If I had been born during those times in history, how would I have reacted?”

You no longer have to ask.

You are writing your answer—day after day—with everything you do.

So, is this Entitlement, Small Dick Syndrome, or Stupidity?

I'll add, too, that the dude is sitting in the car playing with his phone.

I think there should be oil change places that offer manicures, meditation sessions, yoga, WiFi, or car maintenance classes. It's a perfect opportunity to do something good for you while you wait

Well.... here we have city councillor Paul Minhas posing with Poilievre when the Cpc leader was making a statement about Safe Consumption sites.

Yup, the councillor who runs a bar and thinks the "stigma" of drug addiction is a good thing.

A little bit of drama on the Fraser River out my window. Small boat ran a ground as the tide is going out.

Kinda loving Naomi Perks' public delegation at New West Council meeting in defense of naturalization of the boulevard in the culturally monochromatic, and wealthy neighbourhood in the city.

The speakers and audience at New West City Council are all old white people angry about wilding of the boulevard in front of their expensive single family houses with big yards.

How surprising...

With a sound based solely on auto tune, how does Drake do a show?

Is there some tech in the back just randomly spinning the dial between 0 and 100?

Would love for the new "czar" to show up to meet Trump like this.
“The best czar candidates are likely officers, hotel door attendants or drag performers. You need a lot of gold braid, shiny buttons, epaulettes, etc. Got to show that fentanyl who’s boss.” @steveburgess53.bsky.social advises.

Something grand, says Dr. Steve. Perhaps with Trump’s face on the back.

Finished my first full track since I closed my studio a year ago due to my health. I paired down my gear to what I can use from my chair and use Maschine mk3 for recording, producing and mixing.

The track is like nothing I've ever done & uses plug-ins, effects and AI (ethically).

It's going around where people think they're innovative and no idea that it's been done before.

Not sure if it's laziness, lack of education, or arrogance, but we've got things like this.

Designers think they've discovered #passive solar design, but it was very popular in the late 1970's & 80's.

United States: "We are the toughest, baddest, mofos on this planet! Nothing can stop us!"

5 tech boys, 1 racist billionaire, and a below average intelligence felon starts a coup.

United States: "Hey, stop! You can't do that. I'll call someone. I'm warning you. We'll sue. Hey. I said stop."
