This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.
I don’t know how else to say it…

this is also where I’m at
they have two paths to steal the midterms - intimidate enough people to flip them and outright steal them - and neither seems at all likely to work
once the House has flipped the duck becomes even lamer, even though they will flail hard on the way down

In the last few weeks, I’ve become increasingly convinced that Trump and his regime are totally cooked.
They can only stay in power by stealing elections—but they can only do that if enough people are willing to help them.
They’re in a downward spiral and can’t pull themselves out of it.

***Finally*** managed to convince my boss not to use genAI in company-branded ads, photos and videos bc it’s toxic to the brand’s integrity (among other reasons), and
on the one hand I’m glad that they’re at least committing to that
but also sad that it had to be fought for at all

I specifically had to frame it in terms of breaking customers’ trust. If a customer sees a corp’s AI photo/video, and clocks it as fake, they can’t trust that the company’s services actually provide real results either. They feel lied to, and won’t buy
(Which *should* seem obvious from jump, but 🤷)

We need to have some uncomfortable conversations about Assisted Dying programs and how they are rooted in eugenics.
We need to be willing to admit that disabled lives are not valued, and as a result many are coerced into dying who very much want to live.
That’s not bodily autonomy, it’s ableism

Glen Beck is offering to pay for Jolene Van Alstein to get treatment in the US so she doesn’t need to access MAiD (medical assistance in dying).
This move is entirely self serving to push an agenda that is anti assisted dying & anti universal healthcare
It might also save her life 🧵

An international policy expert says an American pundit’s recent commentary on a Regina woman’s medical situation is a distraction from the real issues in Canada’s health-care system.

I was due another period of Kirby fixation, and Air Riders inevitably kicked it off. I dug out the 3DS and I’m reminding myself of how much I enjoyed Triple Deluxe (very much).
More importantly, I found a Whispy Woods plush and had to get in on it. I love that dorky tree so much.
