HOW TO SURVIVE THE GLOBAL HEATWAVE

Stay Hydrated

Treat yourself to an ice cream

Dismantle the fossil fuel industry which is literally burning the planet for the short term profit of a vanishingly small capitalist class

As a Canadian, I ask you, why should we care more about your wine, bourbon or tourism industries than you care about our steel, aluminum, auto or lumber industries? To say nothing of your President’s threats of annexation & mockery of our border. Get your house in order. Until then, pound sand.

We have studied the Montreal shooter's manifesto, discussed it in a community of experts, and read the coverage and reactions. This article is a good start. Other commentary has focused on the wrong parts and covered up violence towards women. So let's talk. 🧵 montrealgazette.com/news/local-c...

A pivotal moment today: a British Prime Minister acknowledges that the tech bros, unless forced, won't do right by our children. It's pivotal because the next logical step is to acknowledge that the tech bros also won't, unless forced, do right by our whole society.

Banning social media for kids - great idea from Olds. Costs little. Not really enforceable, if the Australian case study is any guide. The kids are generally using this tech as messaging. To talk to their peers. Olds are often suspicious of teenagers talking to each other. Don’t get me wrong…🧵

Gas tax breaks are bandaids at best. Real solution is to help low & middle-income Cdns get off fossil fuels. Invest in solar, heat pumps, batteries, EVs. Tackle barriers, offer real incentives & fund w/ windfall tax on Big Oil (who are laughing all the way to the bank). Cleaner, cheaper, healthier.

Wild that Altman is being sued by his sister for repeated sexual abuse and that doesn’t come up in basically every conversation about him. I get that it’s alleged but if that shit was happening to someone else I feel like that would come up, particularly if that person had a history of lying a lot.
