Whenever I pass a dog on a walk, I let it sniff my hand and say hello. Though I like dogs, I'm also doing a check-in like the original Terminator film to prove I'm a human, not a flesh covered robot. If you're with me and don't let the dog sniff you, I'll be judging/suspicious.

For over 130 years, Canadians either loved or hated Cherry Blossoms.
Considered a staple of the Christmas season, these candies were often found in stockings.
In January 2025, it was announced Cherry Blossoms were being discontinued.
This is their history.

Hanoverhill Starbuck was a Canadian breeding bull with exceptional genetics.
During his life, he sired over 200,000 cows in dozens of countries.
He was also one of the first animals cloned for commercial purposes and today has 3.5 million descendants.
This is his story.

“Surveillance pricing,” or as it’s sometimes called, “personalized pricing,” is another way for corporations to pull one over on you.

Here to explain how it works (and what we can do about it) is former FTC chair Lina Khan. https://youtu.be/-cbtUYshYM8?si=GGq_tBcBaIR3_Wby

Should corporations be able to weaponize your personal data to rip you off? Well, they may already be doing that thanks

They're talking about "water based" cooking now. Cooking things in water instead of oils. It's soup. They're making soup.

A new report found that Elon Musk faced at least $2.37 billion in potential legal liability from 11 federal agencies on inauguration day.

Many are now on DOGE's chopping block or have dropped their investigations into Musk's corporations.

"Conflict of interest" is an understatement.

Calling people "terrorist" and "gang members" without any proof to justify people being snatched is fascist.

Every freedom-loving American should be standing against this, regardless of party affiliation.

Let's make this clear:

Just because we demand that our justice system continue to use DUE PROCESS does not mean that we support gangs or illegal activity.

But snatching people off the street and disappearing them without due process crosses the fucking line.
