Privately, every major party and politician in this province has happily tell me that they went overboard on prioritizing Twitter in the past and that it's not particularly helpful to their campaigns in the present. And publicly, they can't break their fixation on it. It is what it is.

(want to know my secret hot take? only journalists, politicians and operatives complain about elections. most people are not impacted by them beyond voting day. they aren't out campaigning or reporting. they are just living lives like normal. it isn't disruptive! except the signs)

I'll propose Higgs's Theory, so named for the premier who lost an election because he didn't believe it: trans issues are high-salience to a relatively small part of the voting public, but that small part skews heavily pro-trans. Trans people and their allies outnumber the out-and-out bigots

This is a good example of what @ntusikov.bsky.social and I have been warning about for years: US tech companies are uniquely susceptible to extra-legal US government pressure (Google isn’t compelled to change Lake Ontario’s name.) Because of this, they represent a direct threat to Canadian autonomy.

More important, the bat viruses that the grant paid the lab to study are so genetically distant from SARS-CoV-2 that they could not have produced it, a point that independent virologists have made repeatedly. That disposes of the specific charge that research that Fauci’s agency funded produced the virus. It did not.

Weirdly, it's the complete opposite for me. When I ask "what was your intent with this", the devs I work with all go "oh my god I'll change that immediately" and I have to be like "no no, it's fine, I just want you to explain what your thinking is!"

I think Loomer really wants to be at odds with her peers, and this is one of the best issues for her to be at odds with them on. She sees her peers being pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine, and she instinctively wants to be the opposite

This seems uncomplicated to me. Someone established a goal and commissioned a process that resulted in a criminal act. Agency always traces back to the font of human decision-making at the entry point to any process, including automated ones. Layers of automation may obscure, but not obviate, agency

Much like how someone's guilt might not be proven enough for court but still be proven enough for dinner table conversation, the market-centred zoonotic spillover should be considered proven for the general public, and really only scientists should be interested in debating it further

Something that shouldn't need to be observed but apparently does is that the images and videos of Andrew Tate being put into handcuffs has instantly made being associated with him more scandalous for politicians even though the facts of the case haven't changed and he hasn't been convicted.

The only way to cover this is to say plainly, repeatedly, and pointedly: Trump is knowingly lying about what the intelligence says, about what happened, and he's doing it in an attempt to change election rules in his favor. This isn't analysis. It's demonstrably true.

If it's clickable, add a hover state. If you can click it, it should look different on hover. Pointer cursor is a good start. Add a hover state. Maybe even focus state. But definitely a hover state. You may not be the CSS person, but you can still add a hover state. Add a hover state
