The young, educated, ambitious people who want to live in Toronto and Vancouver are being forced out by high prices.

We could build more housing for them, but we prefer our cities to become stagnant retirement communities.

In 365 days of Trump:

- he doubled his family’s net worth
- billionaires got $1.5 trillion richer
- his 20 wealthiest political donors got ~$380 billion richer

while…

Food prices ⬆️
Utilities ⬆️
Healthcare ⬆️
Housing ⬆️

Just in case you didn’t understand the scam yet.

America has a housing shortage. Every single housing proposal you see that is not "build more housing" will have the primary effect of pushing up the prices of existing housing, and is therefore, in reality, a plan to enrich current homeowners. In conclusion, build more housing.

Three years on, the AI pushers and fetishists who mocked and sneered at people who worried about mass automation, and told people to ‘learn to code’ etc etc seem to be worried about their particular pet Frankenstein’s monster’s long term survival
Microsoft CEO says AI “risks becoming a speculative bubble unless its use spreads beyond big tech companies and wealthy economies.” Brother you’re the one building this dogshit, we’re three years and hundreds of billions in, how have you not worked it out?

European Parliament Member Anders Vistisen gave a speech, warning Donald Trump that Greenland is "not for sale." He concluded by saying, " Mr. President, let me put this in words you will understand - fuck off." (He also got reprimanded by the parliamentarian for swearing.)

Good news!
Anyone remember that paper by a bunch of computational social scientists working for Microsoft (lol) that proclaimed happily that a wide range of professions would find that gAI would be "applicable" to their professions, and it included everything from historian to customer service staff?
Anyway.

You all need to write history because the people in charge of writing those books now are really dumb. Keep a journal, etch into stone.
