An evening walk, last week. Sorry for the duplicate post, I wanted to edit the alt tag.

An empty street in a semi-rural area. There are Pine trees, a big sky with lots of nice clouds, and my small puffy dog Maya.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

It’s not the question that should bother you. It’s why they’re asking it now. Theresa Tam has already testified before parliamentary committees more than 20 times since 2020. So if this isn’t about getting answers, what is it about?

Northern Ontario is burning. Today, I’m calling for immediate action: ✅ Declare a provincial state of emergency ✅ Remove barriers between jurisdictions so emergency assistance can be provided quickly ✅ Show up: house every evacuee, resource every fire crew, and rebuild every affected community

Hey @safety.bsky.app and everyone! I know it's usually the start of a scam, when someone random person DMs you, starts a conversation, and then suggest switching to a different chat platform. When someone does that, should we report it as suspicious behavour?

I had a nap after work. I dreamed that I stubbed my toe. That shocked me enough to wake me up, and I was relieved that it was just a dream. Since then, this evening, I stubbed by toe twice.

I'm honestly surprised by how badly the Conservatives did in yesterday's by-elections. In Terrebonne, the Liberals got more than 14 times the number of Conservative votes. In Scarborough Southwest, they had almost 4 times as many. In University/Rosedale it was more than 5 times as many.

Here are images from today's anti-Doug Ford protest in Ottawa. I guess about 200 people were there, and some dogs.
