The UCP is destroying public services, and people will die.

Private health care will kill people for profit.

Solidarity!
THIS IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRING!

Please watch and share as Starbucks baristas demonstrate outside the company's biggest distribution hub.

They're on DAY 7 of their strike. Baristas and their allies are protesting Starbucks’ serious and unresolved unfair labor practices.

To all the authors who follow me - fill out the claim!

(Em dash added for irony)
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

Complete brain rot from the Zionists:

(Youth) learn about big, strong Nazis hurting weak, emaciated Jews and then they think, “Oh, anti-Semitism is like anti-black racism, right? Powerful white people against powerless black people."

Our management class is making the worst decisions.

We should focus on overthrowing them all before they drive us off a cliff.
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.

TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

I was convinced this would lead to institutional change in the world.

I have since learned a lot of history and received an education on the callousness of leadership. Villainy is a feature, not a bug.

WTF is happening?
I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.

My 4 year old is upset that every day isn't Saturday and Sunday. He wants to talk to someone in the government to change it.

Does anyone know the correct department I need to put him in contact with?

Outlook needs a "remove me from this thread" option.

I would use that everyday.

I don't think Thiel selling his stocks is a sign AI is about to pop.
HOWEVER
The stock market is a reflection of the feelings of the ruling class, and I'm all for manipulating their feelings.

AI is months away from crashing like it's 1929.
The AI bubble may be about to bust.

Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.

We all need to say this very clearly:

NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!

Expropriate their asses instead.

They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.

They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

I just saw the Bell ad during the Grey Cup.

It was so bad I wanted to subscribe just so that I could cancel and tell them it was because of their ad.

The irony is, of course, that people are making connections offline, and his position of power shields him from the consequences of power.

Our government is failing spectacularly at the basics. Albertans are dying, and they are lying.

This is interesting — a recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social

"they are lying" is key.
When Big Oil companies claim to be partners in climate solutions, remember: they are lying.

As the climate crisis intensifies, Chevron is once again "increasing investments in oil and gas exploration," Reuters reports.
