Get it in, losers. We're going suffering.
I'm sorry, do we have a sensible senator? Holy smokes do I have some crow to eat.
The CBC has just posted a transcript of my recent As it Happens interview about X and Grok. I’m posting a couple of screen shots here - since they are a bit too long for alt text, I’ll post the link to the full transcript below. #cdnpoli #X #Grok #yeg #CSAM

To be fair, he asked Grok and it told him everything was fine in a delightful Jar Jar Binks accent.
Evan Solomon, the minister responsible for AI regulation and safety in Canada, declined an interview request.

A reminder to all the copy editors who choose "was fatally shot" instead of "was murdered":
You're looking for the tenth bolgia - when you get to the eighth circle, turn right at the thieves and go down three more levels.

This would be par for the course of this circus but for one amazing additional fact:
Burch identifies as Catholic. Loudly. It's his Whole Thing. Spinning the Pope's words to appease your fascist? Holy shit man you'd better hope they're wrong about everything that happens when you die.
In a stunning breach of diplomatic norms, Trump's ambassador to the Holy See issued a statement that misrepresented Pope Leo’s remarks on Venezuela in order to defend the U.S. military invasion.

Such a misrepresentation is unprecedented in the history of formal relations between the two governments
Trump’s Vatican Ambassador Misrepresents Pope Leo’s Venezuela Remarks to Defend U.S. Military Action
Brian Burch’s public spin on Pope Leo XIV’s Venezuela remarks marks a striking departure from four decades of candor in U.S.–Vatican relations.

Happy Big Mary Monday to those who celebrate.
We miss you, buddy.

Joyeux Big Mary Monday à tous ceux qui le célèbrent.
Tu nous manques, ami.

In the 80s, America produced about ten million videogames and action movies whose plot was "a decaying, perverted warlord has kidnapped the president of our country", and the Americans in them were the good guys. What a time to be alive.

No matter what happens tomorrow, remember that happiness doesn’t come from gifts; it comes from drinking from the skull of your enemies.

Oh how sweet, one of the sad freaks in Diagolon's Second Failsons got his babysitter to take him out to put up some stickers in town.

I've been assuming that Bruce Cockburn is on his way to Hegseth's house.
I can’t promise that this is the first time a Canadian publisher of a beloved children’s book series has publicly condemned the bloodthirsty US secretary of defense’s use of its imagery to smirkingly defend heinous war crimes. I mean who can say.

The only people to whom this is surprising are the out-of-touch rich weirdos who have been fleeced into investing in the Plagiarism Nexus.
Three years into the generative-AI wave, demand for the technology seems surprisingly flimsy
Investors expect AI use to soar. That’s not happening

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

Cloudflare is down now. Weird how this keeps happening to big web service providers as soon as tech companies decided to start firing people and replacing them with "AI". Such an odd coincidence.
