Huh. We don’t elect our senators. That’s odd! Would you mind explaining to me how this is at all relevant, then?

I follow ONE person who does math and next thing I know I’m getting jump-scared by QFT 😂

My Canadian civics knowledge is admittedly a bit lacking since I grew up in the US. I wasn’t aware that our senators were elected! Learn something new every day!

That’s just as dumb as when Pierre Pollievre (the Conservative Party leader in Canada) lost his election and his party had to have someone resign from their seat in a completely different province so Pollievre could run and actually be part of Parliament.

Yes, on both. Lack of ability to consent would absolutely be rape, regardless of gender. Also, an encounter that starts as consensual, but where that consent is later violated or revoked would also be considered rape. Not to mention someone being unable to consent or there being a power disparity.

Reminds me of this poppy I found this poppy growing next to a mailbox last week.

A zoomed in photo of single red poppy growing in some rocky/sandy/weed-y soil between the sidewalk and the bottom of a mailbox.

The sad thing is that this makes everyone so much less safe. I may be wrong (I was pretty young at the time) , but this feels reminiscent of the indiscriminate cruelty that led to growing international distain for the US leading up to 9/11.

Actually, I would argue that using AI to do math would actually be gatekeeping it because it increases the resources required to do it.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 19h

Computers do not have feelings, regardless of the type of probability distribution they were programmed with. The gatekeeping argument can only be applied disingenuously. It’s not like you need a lot of money, a fancy degree, or a lot of equipment to do math.

Apparently the only thing that the Carney government will stand up for is oil and gas.

Next you’ll tell me that Superman was just made up!

Having grown up in Chicago, this is fantastic

The cotton swabs in that case were not supposed to be used for DNA collection. That was a purchasing decision/error on the part of the police services, iirc.

I was gonna say, I thought that the Nazis tended towards secularism.

All I have is sarcastic remarks about how clearly none of Doug Ford’s friends can make money off of it, otherwise Ontario would have had it years ago.

New theory: revenge for someone trying to *change* his haircut? Also, it’s literally a trade. That’s what they keep saying they want. (I’m aware that they mean only the trades that regularly sexually harass and abuse women, not the ones run predominantly by women.)

011

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

The cosmetology one might be revenge for whoever gave Trump that haircut.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

My approach (if I thought about it) would be, “Huh. I guess I heard you correctly the first time.” And then go on with whatever I was doing as if I was absolutely unbothered.

010

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Calling it a “good run” feels like a stretch 😅

000

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

I’m not gonna say this isn’t good, but it’s that it’s newsworthy.

I am incredibly thankful that they were spared the horrors of experimentation.

Also at reaching things on the top shelf, just sayin’

It’s such an old epidemic that it might even be considered endemic.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 27/09/2026

It’s not new, though. I don’t know an entire side of my family and it’s probably for the best.

Sure, but back in those days, going to the theatre wouldn’t cost you half a month’s rent.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

That’s not even actual emissions or emissions estimates, to date. It’s projected emissions.

I would like some finger licks, please!

There are plenty of people who would prefer to not fly for a multitude of reasons. It’s also insanely costly in terms of fossil fuels to move people in planes versus on the ground in trains.

No. It’s butyric acid. The cocoa part doesn’t help, but American chocolate specifically adds butyric acid.

Also that it takes resources in our intentionally over-stretched and under-funded health system away from those who want to enter treatment and are thereby more likely to succeed?

000

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

So, I’m not an expert in any of this, but doesn’t that just it doesn’t (to the extent you can say anything with certainty when humans are involved) work?

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

Those aren’t reforms. Plain and simple.

As a Canadian, I’m wondering when we can expect the repayment for the illegal tariffs, as well!

000

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

That’s been a tradition for centuries, if not millennia. You’re also forgetting Gen Y.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

The same could be said about Asia.

000

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Wait. There’s a “news” outlet called Canadaland? They know that’s the name of an amusement park, right??aa

If you look up CholyKnight, her website has a free rat plushie pattern. I’ve made it and it’s super cute!

All I got was that Joe Rogan apparently waited too long to start estrogen.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

He’s not trans, so he doesn’t feel threatened, therefore it cannot be a threat.

Like, Sunday morning genuinely sounds tempting because 5:30 is approximately, my cat is hungry and slightly entitled o’clock.

Uhhh…what time zone are you in? 😅

When enough money is at stake to file a lawsuit, apparently.

Reminder that illegal contracts aren’t legally binding.

Didn’t he say that months ago? (Sorry, tired Canadian.)

As a Canadian, I think that the best evidence that it’s your lack of food inspection is that the same brands in Canada are completely fine.

That death toll is not including the resulting psychological scars and generational trauma, some of which persists today.

statsig.bsky.social @statsig.bsky.social · 07/09/2026

Not to mention the fact that the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal has a 4-year wait and it takes at least a year to get before the Landlord Tennant Board.
