About 2500 people live in Tumbler Ridge, and the Peace River region is very close knit. This is devastating for the region as a whole.

In 1793, Chloe Cooley, an enslaved woman in Upper Canada, was beat, tied up and forcefully taken across the border to be sold in the United States.
The incident led to the first legislation in the British Colonies to restrict the slave trade.
This is the story.

KENNEDY: If Canada came to the US and said, 'We're going to 0 tariffs on the US, all of them are off,' would you and the president go to 0 tariffs and let Canadian companies and American companies compete on a level playing field?

BESSENT: Absolutely not

With the unveiling of the official portrait of Stephen Harper, I thought I would go through the official portraits of each Prime Minister.
Note: Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney do not have official portraits yet.
Let's begin!

Oh my gd.

Musk is fucking insane with this quoted sentence from the press release on SpaceX acquiring xAI.

"This marks not just the next chapter, but the next book in SpaceX and xAI's mission: scaling to make a sentient sun to understand the Universe."

Not sure that Pharrell speech at the Grammys is moving the needle with regard to... pretty much anything, but I just had to log in here and say that "don't do anything but work" is TERRIBLE advice.

“are you scared of a fucking whistle dawg” has been knocking around my head all day
one of the agents said “okay we know” when we were whistling so i leaned in and whistled louder and he threatened to pepper spray me. i then said “are you scared of a fucking whistle dawg” and he very meekly said “no i’m not scared of a whistle”

I saw an ad today where some dope used AI to help him jumpstart a car with cables; like, if that’s your life get your dunce cap and sit in the corner
AI is marketed to people who can't get their way out of a jam in an '80s sitcom
