Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. This year's theme is digital abuse.
Fewer than 40% of countries have laws protecting women from cyber harassment or cyber stalking. This leaves 44% of the world’s women and girls without access to legal protection.

90% of deep fake images online are non-consensual pornographic images of women and girls.
And yet, these images are not yet illegal in Canada.

Are there any carbon capture examples that actually work?

In 2001, Alberta got 80% of its electricity from coal.
In 2015, the province announced coal power would be phased out by 2030.
In 2024, the last coal plant shut down, six years ahead of schedule.
In 2025, Alberta's premier is musing about bringing coal power back.

"The 'ceasefire' is a diplomatic sham – a cover for the continuing extermination, displacement and erasure of the Palestinian people in Gaza and a distraction for the international public and the media."

No, there is no ceasefire in Gaza
Israel’s bombing of Gaza is not a ‘violation of the ceasefire'. It is a continuing genocide under diplomatic cover.

The trouble with the UCP's dual practice model?
Think about a double double.
If the line at Tim’s is long because there’s only one person pouring coffee, opening an “express lane” for people who tip $20 doesn’t speed things up. It means those with more money get the coffee while others wait.

Back in school, I wrote an essay about how two-tier healthcare would improve access for everyone.
It makes intuitive sense: create a second line and the original one gets shorter, right?
A better look at the evidence and arguments like Picard's changed my mind. 🧵

I'm sure the same type of thing happened in Gaza, but I'm not sure they had to pay. In fact, maybe they were paid to do it. All sorts of foreign nationals joined the Israeli army.
