Amazing how many 1-star restaurant reviews are basically “I ordered a dish that should only be eaten in a restaurant on a delivery app and it wasn’t good” Did people not learn that lesson during COVID? #Nope

Only in Calgary would I wake up to the news that the UCP lost and people are pining that “there wasn’t a sensible conservative and/or centrist candidate to vote for” Conservatism is now interlocked with facism, and the sooner people in Alberta grow the fuck up, the better off we will all be.

Posted an article on why AB Separatism is based on lies. Had Separatist tell me that “my opinion contradicts the wishes of hundreds of thousands of Albertans” I pointed out that it wasn’t my opinion, but a pull quote from the article he didn’t read. That’s how smart they are. #Berta #FireTheUCP

I’m not big into The Hockey™️ , but for all the discourse about The Oilers signing Forementon, you *do* remember that the team signed Craig MacTavish after he got out of prison for literally killing someone? Then hired him to coach the team.

You know what you're doing is good when you have to develop an in-house, real-time surveillance system to help your executives locate the ideal service exit to avoid contact with the public prospect.org/2026/09/09/a...
Text reads: A piece of Anthropic’s surveillance architecture was revealed in a podcast interview from last year between Anthropic Global Security Operations Center Manager Keon Ellison, Security Operations Manager Zach Melvin, and James Neufeld, CEO of Samdesk, a company Anthropic contracts with for risk detection.

In a wide-ranging conversation about threat monitoring and analysis, the interview also touches on monitoring activists. “Last year we had an executive travel into a major city when we received some intelligence through Samdesk about a planned protest,” Ellison said. The originally scheduled protest was moved up due to permitting issues. “Samdesk gave us about 60 minutes of advanced notice that the protest organizers had moved the timeline,” Ellison explained. “That extra hour was critical. Without it our executives would have departed their meetings, they would have ran right into the heart of the disruption.”

Ellison said that Anthropic used this data to devise an alternate route for the executive and funnel them to a service entrance at the hotel. “What could have been a high-stress situation,” he said, “was really mitigated through early detection through Samdesk and giving us that information.”

You can't run a welfare state, bring in millions who need support, and keep energy prices this high without the books blowing up. It's also tearing up the social fabric and native culture. People are waking up. Now watch the mainstream media ignore all of it - while twisting themselves into pretzels labelling her alt-right anyway.

Go figure that if you make a getting a degree a $100,000 debt load, have buying a house $1,000,000 and don’t guarantee people the jobs/wages to pay for either of those? Then yes, young people won’t start families/have babies. Great job Boomers. Enjoy your diapers.

Meanwhile in Canada, the feds rather quietly released a climate report on Thursday (before a long weekend, classic timing). Main takeaway: Canada is warming twice as fast as the global average, and it will get much worse on the same trajectory in the next half of the century.
