Dr Steven M. Vamosi 🇨🇦 @smvamosi.github.io · 08/08/2026I know this isn’t a train station, but: I’m taking a break from here and other social media. Not tearing anything down, just deleting apps off my phone I’m easy to find if you want to talk science 🧪 🌎 0151
Dr Steven M. Vamosi 🇨🇦 @smvamosi.github.io · 07/08/2026A lot has been written about the problematic actions undertaken under the guise of “conservation” — in Canada, the creation of our National Parks system was heavily motivated by displacing Indigenous Peoples; for example, see: guides.library.ualberta.ca/indigenous-p...guides.library.ualberta.caSubject Guides: Indigenous Peoples & Canada's National Parks: HomeSubject Guides: Indigenous Peoples & Canada's National Parks: Home 131

Dr Steven M. Vamosi 🇨🇦 @smvamosi.github.io · 02/08/2026AI use is rampant but my feed is full of “[issue of the day] is why I don’t use it” posts and replies Now, I know that I curate my following and followers lists, but… something’s not adding up. Are folks simply overstating their aversion/abstinence for ‘likes’? 010

Dr Steven M. Vamosi 🇨🇦 @smvamosi.github.io · 25/07/2026“Best” is considered too informal by some as an email sign off, so I’ve been mulling an alternative for a while. For whatever reason, “best wishes” never really called out to me, but I recently thought of a modification that works for me: “best fishes” 🐟 ☺️ 031
Dr Steven M. Vamosi 🇨🇦 @smvamosi.github.io · 24/07/2026Yikes! Fair concern. Here, I'm mulling how much of the rest of the folk music festival I want to take in. Had a blast yesterday, although conditions noticeably worsened through the evening, and it was nowhere near as bad as it is at the moment... 🙃 010
Dr Steven M. Vamosi 🇨🇦 @smvamosi.github.io · 24/07/2026As the continent burns, it's good to remember that the foundations of our current plight were laid centuries ago, when we hunted beavers to near extinction (for "fashion") and vilified cultural burning 020

The builders were very well fed, paid in bread and beer, and received excellent medical care. There was no slavery whatsoever, it is a common misconception. 1023992869
