The usage of "woke" as an insult has to now be seen as a little ironic now that the people using it have marched themselves into the rule of incompetent authoritarians.

So... Google spent billions developing an AI that is going to do all this "stuff". But, they can't use it to help fill out a calendar.

I'm low-key obsessed with my new stickers for #yegtransit arc cards. For the bus stop stickers, you can even write your favourite routes into the boxes.

You know what is embarrassing? Having the largest military industrial complex the world has ever known and not being able to even secure your own border. From two countries who are allies and friends. Like what is even the point?

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:

1. Create a new $15B science fund

2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada

3. Immediate permanent residency

4. Citizenship after 2 years

#Japan has cat cafés.
It also has cafés for model-train lovers.

But when the two meet, watch out.

You get the dreaded Godzilla-scale railroad-wrecking cat.

As I often say, Boomers cannot imagine life without their cars at their sides at all times. Worst generational character flaw.

#yeg #yegcc Should we still honor Wayne Gretzky with Wayne Gretzky drive?

The former great one publicly supports a man who has no respect for Canadian sovereignty. Who's yes men are angry Canadians aren't honored to become Americans against their will. A man who wants Gretzky as our "governor'.
