Search for 'Trump' shows only two images of book shelves with 'Trump' in the book title. Search for 'clinton' has 11 pages of datasets. Not much point in reading further if there's already that much stench of partisan misdirection

Fine job CPC is doing separating itself from all of the accusations of being Trump North that torpedoed them in April 🤷♂️

Totally lost the plot to squeeze out every nickel of ad revenue. I just use ChatGPT for that stuff now

So obvious these last two innings, whatever the reason is. Yama getting all the low calls, Gaus none of them. Jays still making decent contact in more at bats than last time. Here’s hoping one more time through the order is the charm!

Saw what happened the rest of the inning when he was trying to throw strikes. Suspect the Ohtani pitch is what happened when he tried to throw away from him 🤦♂️

Basically this, or pro a-holism on the idea that at some point you have to push back against a-holism with some of the same. A lot of people just don't want to go there.
Empathy can take work. There's a certain type of person that finds comfort in being told its okay to not have to put in the work

You know what they say about anger and fear.
Time for the Canadian federal gov to bring back the digital services tax and flow proceeds to tariff targeted industries.
Also Ontario doubles down on the ad. Bet if there was a GoFundMe they’d find takers to help foot the bill.
Enough’s enough.

Tim Hortons with the offer next day when Jays get nine hits in a game. What for two nines?

Haha fun moment but honestly feel like the celebration might’ve been a little heavy after that series. Totally get gravity of the moment and beating a team you don’t like, but maybe had them coming into this one with the wrong mindset. You’ve got 46 hours to do something unlikeable, Seattle!

How about Raleigh pitches and Kirby catches next game in exchange for one framed but not yet signed 8x10 of disappointed Aaron Judge?

Thx… turkey went in just before first pitch and timed to be ready to rock by the time this one’s done unless things get silly. Impressed by M’s bullpen and timely hitting so far in these first two!

Still not at his best, doesn’t feel like a 4-3 kinda game!

Just getting that nasty split warmed up. Not many pitchers can say they had 4 Ks in an inning

4 K’s in one inning is pretty good in my books. Lotta confidence in his stuff if he can locate for the rest of the game and Blue Jays can hit like Blue Jays

In all of this, can’t lose sight of fact that AI is here to stay. Def be mindful of threats, but gotta identify opportunities too and jump on them. Very likely the working world and capitalism as we know them are in line for some kind of disruption. We get to help decide what that world looks like

Def need guard rails to prevent egos from running wild, but gotta be careful or guard rails on this side of the Pacific end up only creating an opening for less constricted nations and actors who don’t share our values to run the table.

Important to be ahead of for sure. For now the new Sora app won’t let you generate a video if it has a picture of someone else in it. That doesn’t mean that a race to the bottom isn’t on the way where other less morally inclined services won’t put that power in anyone’s hands easily and soon

Keep going just a little more in the other direction while you’re at it to Vancouver Island. Jays hats and jerseys a plenty around Victoria yesterday!

Hard to say how that goes. A lot of us that would take the quick ferry ride in won’t be crossing the border under present regime, for safety reasons as much as on principal. Would be a fun matchup though!

Guy is just off. As a matter of survival we need to build ties with new countries. Carney is uniquely suited to get foot in the door with all of these countries. He’s doing exactly that and Poilievre is helping remind us. How many stagnant poll numbers until his party wakes up and smells the coffee?

Non-BlueSky social media negativity and overly reactionary hot takes drive way too much of the narrative. Too many news outlets are all to willing to run with it for the clicks. This place is amazing, and too modest on average to brag about what makes it that way

Meanwhile we have major Canadian media outlets running the memorial service/political rally for a political activist of another country as their top story. The coupling with American culture seems to be a tough one to break. There’s going to have to be an active decision to not go down with the ship
