It is insane for one rich demented individual who has no accountability to the public to be able to alter foreign policy and war. We need creative new policies to reign in the oligarchs - no one should have this power

Hey it’s Dan Fumano, the Vancouver Sun’s city hall reporter and all around good dude! If you lament that journalists stay on a website owned by someone advocating for the breakup of Canada, then please engage with those who make the leap and need to build up their base here.

"mRNA is one of the most promising technologies for preventing and treating any kind of disease that you can imagine. Stopping development could put cures of chronic diseases such as cancer and HIV out of reach." My comments on mRNA research defunding in @prismreports.org:

The research made promising inroads on developing vaccines for cancers and HIV, which both have racial and socioeconomic disparities

I don’t want to sound glib, but if a woman actually wanted to “make up a crime to ruin a man’s reputation,” they’d pick one that people actually give a shit about, like hurting a dog or something.

Basically if the victim/survivor has to live indefinitely with the fact that happened then why shouldn't the person who actually chose to make an assault happen. Like oh you're haunted by it?? It's impacting your life 20 years later??? Even when you don't want it to???? Boo *fucking* hoo

You would not believe all the smart, seemingly normal people I know who treat the crimes & ethical violations of AI like a petty distraction...or who have pre-emptively surrendered to their own exploitation, saying "It's inevitable, we just have to accept it." It's like a "Twilight Zone" episode.

“It’s not ALL men.” None of the 50+ men the Cornell rapists invited to come join them in raping a woman they’d drugged went to the authorities or tried to stop it. Not all men would rape an unconscious woman, but where are the men who’d try to stop it, or EVEN FUCKING OBJECT?

Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

Writing an article or essay is so fucking easy. If it is hard for you or you dread it enough to use AI I suggest you remove from your to-do list “writing articles and essays.” I do not, for example, enter golf tourneys or work at a mechanic’s shop because I am not good at those and don’t like them.

this comparison leaves out a key point: the Edsel sold roughly twice the Cybertruck's volume at a time when the overall car market was just 6m units/year instead of the current 16m units/year that makes the Cybertruck the much, much bigger flop, hands down

If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.
