Someone tried to silence us last night by damaging our Unity Bus. All they did was prove why our mission to bring people together is so urgent. It’s time to stop this divisive referendum.The glass is repaired, the engine is running, and we'll see you at our next stop Alberta.

The Caribbean islands of Turks and Caicos have wanted to explore becoming part of Canada for many years. Our answer to the US is the same as our answer to Turks and Caicos: We are not in the empire business. We do not wish to annex or possess a developing country.

PREMIER PRIMER To US broadcast journos, newsreaders, and politicians - friends or otherwise - the head of a Cdn provincial government is a premier. It's pronounced PREEMyer, not preMEER. You may be thinking of a "premiere," the first screening of a movie (which we would pronounce as preemYAIRE).

Great read, but also deeply chilling. Danielle Smith opened the floodgates for Russian interference because she is trying to keep the leopards she keeps in her house from eating her face.

If I'm at an outdoor party and somene brings out smores stuff, I just eat the chocolate. Chocolate is much much better than smores. Plus it's ready to eat, no assembly required.

Never forget that they had to spend trillions of dollars, build massive data centers, consume millions of galloons of water and insane amounts of electricity, just to kind of do what you can do better with your imagination and a cup of coffee. That's how envious they are of what you can do.

I don't often visit Calgary , but I always have a good time there. My work takes me to rodeo and chuckwagon events every year. I actually enjoy them. And I don't understand Bucket Lists. But if, on my deathbed, I can check the "Never Been To Calgary Stampede" box, I will wear a satisfied smile.

I'm sure there are some newish computer programs that make certain jobs easier. That's fine but it's none of my business! Why does the general public need to be made aware of it constantly? Because "A.I." is fake and a con and a scheme to enrich liars... www.welcometohellworld.com/the-past-is-...
We don't usually have hear about the run up to any other experimental product every day of our lives for years. If there were going to be flying cars in 15 years that would be a pretty interesting article to read like once. "Damn that's crazy" etc. They wouldn't have an article every single day counting it down though. And perhaps most importantly the flying car inventor wouldn't try to sell it by saying "Here's the flying car. Fuck you you're poor now lol."

Listen I'm sure there are some newish computer programs that make certain jobs easier now. That's fine but it's none of my business! Why does the general public need to be made aware of it constantly? Because "A.I." is fake and a con and a scheme to enrich liars and they are trying to push it through despite most people's very natural skepticism.

This is all a media story mostly. No one left in the desiccated corporate media wants to write about some new lines of code that helps some nerds be more efficient at some niche science task. So they enthusiastically let themselves be conned by the hucksters so they can feel like they're writing a more important story than the press release they are actually writing.

So Sherry buys us a small dessert slice to share. It is assymetrical. I kind of eyeballed it to cut it roughly in half. Each piece was 39 grams. I'll have to rest a bit, once I've calmed down.

That and the attempts to force AI despite few people wanting it and LOTS of people trying to figure out how to get rid of it. This isn't a desired technology. This isn't like when people lined up in excitement for iphones; it's like when the phones all came loaded with unwanted U2 albums.

Not even hiding the blatant entitlement anymore. The Premier's Office continues to remove all checks and balances on its power. The courts, the legislature, the Auditor General, independent agencies, the federal government, voters and candidates they don't like... This is getting ridiculous.
