They've got those already don't you know!

Given that Shopify's "AI Powered Agent" has suggested I activate services I already use, re-suggested services I have twice declined with extreme negative responses, repeatedly suggested I tag books as both hardcover and paperback and generally doesn't seem to even understand what I sell, hell no.

2. If Ukraine helped Spain + France with the wildfires to the same extent they have helped Ukraine defend itself (compared to threat) Ukraine would send FR/SP a few large containers of water and 1 hose to share between them. "Be grateful and sign up to fight the fires you lazy ass!"

This was the next post in my timeline below yours. It doesn't matter how much global instability results from a collapsed Russia, the world will never get better while it exists.

I'm not going to claim I'm some kind of genius but throughout my life I have tried hard to be an informed, intelligent and logical thinker and conversationalist. Until 10 years ago I was relatively happy and felt good in the infosphere of life. Now I just feel like Leonard from TBBT all the time.😒

Look at all those medals, such a brave man, imagine how jealous equally brave manchild Trump must be. 🤣

I don't know about that, I'm still seeing way too much reliance on upcoming elections. This is from yesterday.

My British friend wonders how we in Canada can receive 30cm of snow overnight and yet still get to work in the morning (and why our business is even open) but then there's this from Katya in Dnipro, going to work in a war zone.

I'm curious if this hasn't maybe been dealt with before? Did the photocopier companies just decide to stop counterfeiting on their own or was there legal precedent compelling them to do so? 🤔

If you are capable of adjusting tech you designed to not do illegal things, you are expected to. Musk has made frequent mention of his ability to adjust Grok when he feels it is doing wrong things so he is 100% guilty. He didn't just create something that is now operating outside of his control.

I stopped the video at :50 and this is what it showed. I think Vassy's expression is a good representation of what most people think when looking at Pierre. 😆

In March 2022 I purchased the rights to download artwork by 4 Ukrainian children through an initiative called Leleka. I still have them beside my office desk + look at them daily. Today, World Children's Day, I thought it was a good time to share them. I often think of where these children are now.

Painting by Michael of a traditionally dressed Ukrainian girl.

Painting of flowers by 6 year old Milana.

Painting of blue sky and flowers matching the colours of the Ukrainian flag by 9 year old Masha.

@explaintrade.com posted this but didn't say it was Nuzzi. I'm not going out on any limb to say this must be the same person.

There are dozens of Canadian hockey players still actively playing in Russia for KHL teams. I wish they would be told they have traded away their rights to any diplomatic status or help when at some point they are picked up on specious charges. 😡

That sucks, but I did catch these two front porch flags in Brockville, Ontario, Canada today. I drive all over the place in southern Ontario and I am again taking pictures when I see the support. 😁

I spotted this on a random country road in southern Ontario Canada today. Love seeing this, I hope it brightens your day at least a little.

Norm @thebookstoreonpluto.ca · 04/07/2025

I'm not sure if it was you or another account I follow on here but someone mentioned appreciating random things like this Ukrainian flag I drove by on a random country road in southern Ontario Canada. So here it is. 🇨🇦 🇺🇦

My friend Lada mentioned Олег is playing in Toronto (2 hour drive from me) in June, and I would love to go. It's in the best small live venue in Toronto, where I saw so many bands in my youth. 😁

@popovaprof.bsky.social I saw this doozy a few days ago, and today received the verdict from the CBSC - no infraction.🙄They even stated that these news tickers need to be taken with the rest of CP24's reporting (which admitedly is sometimes good when they give themselves the time to add context) 1/2

By the way @margogontar.bsky.social this is how this Toronto channel often frames stories about Ukraine.

Norm @thebookstoreonpluto.ca · 08/05/2025

The main 5pm news in Toronto did a longer story, clearly blaming Russia although they did say Russia denies this. There was a lot of pictures of how Russia's denials were bullshit.

This is a search on CBC, the national news organization, they appear to have ignored Putin and his selfish ceasefire completely.
