Do you remember... From the late-1970s to the early-1980s, one of the biggest bands in Canada was Prism. From 1977 to 1980, they had four platinum records. Among their most successful singles were Spaceship Superstar and Take Me To The Kaptin.

Then it should be used very specifically for specific jobs, with strict guardrails, and not propping up our entire economy, and being forced into everything. The same way I don’t need to know how to use, say, software for dental offices, or a forklift, most people don’t need AI.

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge just HALTED the destruction of Big Bend. This is a massive victory for the landowners, local communities, and everyday Texans who stood up to protect one of our state's greatest treasures. The fight isn't over, but today, the people won.

Graphic from the Center for Biological Diversity over a scenic view of Big Bend. Large text reads, “MASSIVE WIN FOR BIG BEND.” Below, it says a federal judge has frozen all destruction throughout the Big Bend region until the project’s legality can be determined in court. The graphic adds that the Center will continue fighting to save Big Bend and asks supporters to join them.

When I ran for the NDP Leadership in 2017 I talked with my family about expectations/commitment. My wife was blunt: "you can run or not run. We get nothing out of this. So win or lose you promise to build me a greenhouse." I built the best damned greenhouse. And we still use it. She's the best.

Pete is lost in terms of modern war. I use the example of this outgunned Ukrainian army officer who successfully terrorized a Russian unit for weeks because she "did the math." At the time, someone commented, "yeah, in combat, 'I did the math' beats 'I can do 100 pushups' every time."

Ukrainian female soldier: Okay, I said the idea is this: There is enough time to empty one full can of 32 grenades and be gone by the time the return mortar fire reaches us. I did the math.

a reminder: they are releasing 100m barrels over 4 months. the world uses about 100m barrels of oil/day. one days's worth. over four months. this will be less than 1M Barrels/day. or less than 1%/day. just for perspective. And at the end of the 4 months, there will less reserves, in reserve.

This is Noodle. He arrived at the rescue with a limp in his left hind leg. The bone connecting the ball of his femur to the rest of his leg is fractured, making movement painful. He needs an FHO surgery, likely followed by rehab. You can help him below ❤️‍🩹 1510.fan/noodle-bs15

a white, short-haired poddle mix named Noodle rests on an x-ray table. a vet tech gently cradles his snout in their hands, and he looks over at us with just his eyes. he has a wavy blep barely poking out of his mouth.

This is an extension of the larger project to convince people that voting is a permanent power transaction rather than a temporary delegation. Politics in the West (or North) would look vastly different with a reassertion of this tenet: people only lend their power; they never yield it.

Excellent thread. The same strategies give us politicians whose entire purpose is getting elected/reelected. Any governing or attempts to better our lives must always yield to the singular goal of simply being in power. Electoral consultants have ruined public service.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings
