I will never get over Langs burning down. They made the best Tom Yum soup that I crave every time I have a cold. Their bbq pork with spring rolls vermicelli bowl was incomparable.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies:
“What a weird thing to say”
“Do you hear yourself right now?”
“You shouldn’t say shit like that to people”
“I won’t let you talk to them that way”
“That’s a disgusting opinion to have”

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man
The responsibility for resisting and correcting this behavior shouldn’t fall solely on a specific gender. If you’re a man of conscience and you see another man mimicking Nick Fuentes, fuck him up on sight before the women even get a chance. I mean that.

This opens up wider questions about how far the UK and Canada in the 5 eyes intel sharing framework as well as other former allies of the United States can still provide the Americans with any sensitive intelligence information at all

While the U.S. is actively weakening the FDA, Canada is preparing to stop doing its own drug reviews and defer to foreign regulators.

this is a worthy read...but PLEASE, journalists, can you frame AI articles without conflating Generative AI with 'cancer cure' AI devices?
Shared my thoughts on Canada's AI strategy for this new piece in @thewalrus.ca
The tendency to frame AI as inevitable & autonomous "obscures what we’re really talking about, which is people—in business, in government, in civil society—and the decisions they make."

The federal government survey for academics about AI adoption and development was so heavily skewed that you couldn’t even express concerns.
Canada’s AI Minister “has been accused of naively embracing AI rather than working to mitigate its harms, and of listening mostly to voices from the tech sector—those who stand to benefit most from rapid AI adoption.”
Good article on the issues with Evan Solomon’s approach to tech and AI.

Many people think Chrétien’s face features are from a stroke, but in fact he had polio as a child. Polio used to be called infantile paralysis and the virus caused partial facial paralysis in Chrétien and deafness in one ear.
Jean Chrétien’s principled leadership, decades of public service, and lifelong commitment to a stronger Canada has built a remarkable legacy for our country.
Happy 92nd birthday, Jean — Vive le Canada!
