I feel this so so much

Ok I'm sold

All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

!!!! Congrats!

I can't tell if having Ross "Corpo-Bot 3000" Atkins delivering speeches I'm Parliament would be amusing, or even more depressing....

I feel like AI slop ads is a “woke mob/cancel culture” initiative that everyone can get behind. These companies should be bullied into submission on this absolute garbage.

Having survived five successive Xmases in retail during undergrad, I think it should be mandatory for everyone to work at least one Xmas in retail as empathy training.
(It's also why I still have PTSD around most Xmas music).

AI is a climate issue. AI is a climate crisis.

The Salvation Army is not a charity. They are an evangelical church that uses donated money to actively oppress gay rights. They've been especially cruel to trans people.

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Oh good, the oven broke.

Because 2025 gonna keep 2025ing it seems....

What does this mean for you? It means that RAM(aka memory in your computer) prices are going through the *ROOF*

Like 4x the price in recent days from what I hear, and its only gonna get worse.

And this isn't just gaming PCs, this is gonna be literally everything computerized that this is gonna hit

Uhhh, so it hasn't really hit the normie news yet, but the latest thing AI is fucking over? Yeah, its the RAM market.

As in, their stupid datacentres are buying up RAM in such quantities that companies are slowing/stopping making normal consumer RAM to services AI bozos instead

One of Britain’s most senior police officers has launched an angry tirade against Extinction Rebellion protesters going “all floppy” when they get arrested. Sir Stephen House, the deputy commissioner of the Metropolitan police, said the tactic of going limp was a “flipping nuisance” as it required extra officers to drag protesters away. House told a London assembly police and crime committee hearing: “We have asked them to stop being floppy. And that might seem like a silly thing to say, but when we arrest them and pick them up, they go all floppy, which is why you see four or five officers carrying them away. It’s a complete waste of officers’ time, and a complete pain in the neck.” Extinction Rebellion: how successful were the latest protests? Read more House also expressed annoyance at how the tactic made the police look heavy-handed. He said: “The problem with them going floppy and four offices carrying them away [is that it] looks to the general public like police are overreacting here. We’re not making them go floppy. They’re just sort of being a nuisance.”

This gets progressively funnier with every use of the term "floppy".

How about we worry less, as a society, about whether individuals might be cheating to get a disability accommodation or some help buying food, and more about whether extremely wealthy people and corporations are paying their fair share of taxes?

Ooooo, Ponce to the Jays, intriguing!

Wonder if they see him as a starter or reliever or what

Wtf is going on lately that I'm starting to see cars/trucks with brake lights that are borderline high beam bright????

Like straight up just had a dude nearly blinding me while we were stopped at a stoplight. Changed lanes right after to avoid it, and his headlights were legit less bright, wtf

Ok but hear me out: what if it *wasn't* Monday today?

THAT'S WHAT THEY ALWAYS SAY

27.4% feels equal parts fair and also maybe low?

idk lol, but also its a win, given how large a portion of my life I was disallowed from cursing, so suck a dick, evangelical christian upbringing

@profanity.accountant bring it on

‘Carney doesn’t actually want a pipeline or think one will get built, he’s just a duplicitous weasel’ is not the defence you think it is.

What could be putting young women off marriage? It really isn’t that much of a mystery | Naoise Dolan Survey data suggests more and more girls can’t imagine getting married, while their male counterparts are keener. That disparity holds a clue, says writer Naoise Dolan

"...a rightwing man complains that women don’t want to date him. Often enough, he is an avowed libertarian, leaving it a mystery why he does not simply accept the workings of the free market."

One of the good, slow burns.

'Made-up quote' in Canadian satire site The Beaverton fools Time Magazine | CBC News In a recent article about the United States' strained relationships with other countries, Time Magazine included a made-up quote from Canadian satire site The Beaverton — seemingly as fact.

Time Magazine quoting a @thebeaverton.com article about the US shooting a "patriot missile" at Parliament Hill like it's something Pete Hoekstra actually said might be my favourite moment of the week. Congrats, @ianmmacintyre.bsky.social, you very serious reporter! www.cbc.ca/news/world/b...

If you haven't yet, you really need to go listen to True Believer, and especially listen to the lyrics

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Might be a little late to party in gushing about it, but the new Hayley Williams solo album (Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party) is just absolutely incredible, hot damn.

The musicality, the vibes, the lyrics, and of course obviously the vocals? All just so so good

Also as much as this is bad policy and bad electoral, it also rewards a lot of really bad behaviour by Smith and her government, and it is no good for the country that if a province basically signals its unwillingness to follow federal legislation, the federal response is to say “go right ahead.”

Call me old fashioned, but exempting the oil patch from basically all federal climate regulation is maybe the sort of thing that would be good to run by voters beforehand

It is time to...get that bread 😈😈😈
