I will build a second, more impressive sun if VCs give me $207 billion. Anyone who calls it stupid will be arrested by ICE.
Careful. A tech bro might see this and actually try to make it happen

Two men who occupy prominent positions in Canada’s media landscape just travelled to Israel, where they received a briefing from the Israeli government.
Yeah. What are journalism ethics anyway?
Those men were TVO’s Steve Paikin and Global News’ Ben Mulroney:

It's great. I have never once interacted with it in the few years it has been worshipped like a new god.
one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

Gender-based violence is an everyday reality, and it starts with minimizing misogyny
As we highlight 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence and the upcoming anniversary of the Montreal massacre, can we take a moment to reflect on all the different forms this violence takes?

I’ve never heard an interview that was more simpering. His tour isn’t even getting a lot of attendance. This has about as much weight as a dime-a-dozen TikTok street interview. The interview with Hawk Tuah was more interrogative.

Had a classmate 8-10 years my junior say they were watching old simpsons and it still holds up but honestly a lot of newer simpsons is still fun. It’s not the same show (how could it be?) but in one Marge has a fever dream and hallucinates her way through hard truths about her kids growing up.
I feel like it is culturally important to note that I recently played an old episode of the Simpsons on Disney+ for some kids and then a random newer episode and the kids, unprompted, were like “how come this isn’t as funny?” so it’s not just nostalgia we are correct

It has been wild to watch Canadian journalists launder Jivani's white supremacy. In this case, through his love of "gangster culture."
Conservative MP Jamil Jivani was on the latest episode of our “Playbook Canada” podcast.
We talk about what he learned from gangster rap, surviving cancer, DEI — and the toughest person he knows.

I can't speak for what was said at the protests, but seeing people react to an anodyne statement like "sacred spaces should not be used to promote activities in violation of international law" as if it were a vicious slur is clarifying.
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.
