Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction.

FYI for BC residents, if you want a COVID booster/flu shot, I was able to search in my emails for a previous "Book your next vaccine appointment" from a previous year and click on the link and it just let me schedule my covid vaccine.

This. It’s not empowering creativity and original thought. It’s constricting and eroding it.

Author and filmmaker Justine Bateman on generative AI
"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat. People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian

What they don’t understand about Taylor is that she has a deeply unserious side to her! Like all of a sudden, she’s not allowed to have fun and be funny and silly! It’s ridiculous! People here folklore and evermore just think she’s supposed to make music like that for eternity! She can have duality!

Yay! Congrats titmouse workers!!
cag938.bsky.social Canadian Animation Guild - IATSE Local 938 @cag938.bsky.social · Sep 27
The results are in!

Titmouse Vancouver workers voted overwhelmingly to ratify our second collective agreement!
A cartoon red ball and a blue bird are smiling, high-fiving and giving the peace sign in front of a simplified maple leaf, with a big red "YES!" behind them. Text on a light blue background reads "The Titmouse Vancouver Bargaining Committee would like to thank everyone who participated in the ratification vote this week. All digital ballots have been processed, and with a 62.2% voter turnout, we are happy to announce the final results: With 97.6% of votes in favour, the second Titmouse Vancouver Collective Agreement is RATIFIED! The wins in this renegotiation are a testament to the support, engagement, and energy of Titmouse Vancouver workers - and the power of building on the solid foundation of our first agreement. The Executive Board of CAG 938 would like to sincerely thank all of the workers at Titmouse Vancouver who volunteered their time in the Bargaining Committee, at the bargaining table, and showing up for our rally for Leads! We could not have had the strength at the table without the efforts of workers like you!"

Below is CAG 938's statement on the recently announced event in Stanley Park.
Text on the letterhead of CAG 938 reads: " The Canadian Animation Guild is deeply disappointed in the Vancouver Park Board’s decision to replace the yearly Bright Nights charity event with a for-profit Harry Potter-themed attraction at Stanley Park this year. Bright Nights is an annual event hosted by the BC Professional Fire Fighters Association to raise donations for their Burn Fund, which provides valuable support for burn survivors and their families. This event brings communities together in solidarity with the indispensable services that BC firefighters provide to our province. Not only is the Park Board’s decision a slap in the face of firefighters and burn victims, but the decision to replace it with a for-profit event that promotes the Intellectual Property of Joanne Rowling shows a disregard for the concerns of 2SLGBTQIA+ workers in our city. Rowling is well known for utilizing her own wealth in lobbying for the erosion of trans rights in the UK and abroad, championing legislation that cuts trans healthcare and restricts the rights of transgender people to exist in public. As the owner of the Harry Potter IP, Rowling directly benefits from such events. By choosing to approve a licensed Harry Potter-themed event in Stanley Park, Vancouver City Council and the Park Board have made all of us who live and work in Vancouver complicit by funding JK Rowling’s ongoing campaign against trans people. CAG 938 stands with 2SLGBTQIA+ workers in our membership and beyond, and we will continue to represent their interests, both in and out of the workplace. We will also be exploring our options through the Vancouver & District Labour Council to hold the Park Board accountable. On behalf of the CAG Executive Board, Eddy Pedreira (he/him), President and Kari Nakken (she/any) Pride Committee Chair"

The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures.

This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech!

www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
e-6695 (Consumer protection) Keywords Censorship Credit cards Internet Pornography E-petition Initiated by Carmen Tam from Waterloo, Ontario Original language of petition: English Petition details Petition to the House of Commons Whereas: Mastercard, Visa, and other payment platforms have been leveraging their power over consumer ability to purchase legal content; In 2021, Mastercard changed its policies to regulate adult entertainment by preventing the use of its payment platform on numerous adult entertainment sites; As of July 2025, video game distribution service Steam now cites rule 15, that “adult only” content is not permitted on the platform if it goes against payment processor’s policies. Steam does not describe what content is defined as “adult only”; As of July 2025, video game distribution website Itch.io has “deindexed” all adult NSFW content from browse and search pages. Users that previously purchased legitimate video games cannot access games that have been removed; and This has set an unsettling precedent of corporate censorship, causing concern in video game development teams, including developers, voice actors, and artists in other creative fields as their livelihoods are in limbo. We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to 1. Stop financial discrimination by payment platforms against legal goods and services; 2. Ensure transparency to consumers about content restrictions and the rationale behind them; and 3. Protect creators' rights to make legal adult content and ensure a fair appeals process for any penalized media.
