The truth is that if democracy is to survive this era, we can no longer treat independent media as optional. It is essential, and we must do everything we can to help it thrive and grow — quickly. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/demo...

Trump and his allies are rapidly taking over our major news outlets.

I think what a lot of folks miss is how profitable deportation is for the corporations involved & the politicians they're backing. Holding people, physically removing them, is cost for the taxpayer & profit into the pockets of the worst people you can imagine.

I was quick to sign onto this open letter from a wide range of organizations and experts calling on Canada to rethink its 'move fast and break things' approach to AI governance. It’s ever more urgent that governments move away from the industry-first/only approach to AI. bccla.org/policy-submi...

$160 billion in new spending on building jails, hiring more ICE 'agents' to carry out kidnappings & flying people to torture prisons. For comparison, the 2024 NIH budget, which funds essentially all US medical research, was $47.1 billion. Funding racism instead of research.

Maybe one of the coolest things that's happened to me—being illustrated in a zine! (Not that that's the important part 😅) Much thanks to @kristenthomasen.bsky.social, awesome panelists, & @marcngui.bsky.social for capturing our discussion so well.
