It’s 28° 🥵 sick breeze tho true.

Haha just kidding. It was all to make college execs, quick service franchisees and property speculators super wealthy. Canada doesn’t have a real economy.

So if the point of unchecked work-study student visas in Canada was to bolster our community college system and we aren’t sharing Canadian expertise globally or what ever anymore then can’t we fully fund domestic students now?

NOBODY LIKES THIS GUY! EVERYBODY LOVES MAMDANI!

Maybe it's just me but I think that the #HamOnt coliseum sponsored by a bank that reported a profit of $3.34 billion *in the third-quarter alone*, should be compelled to pay its workers a living wage, @mayorandreahorwath.bsky.social @cameronkroetsch.bsky.social.

"Graphic from the NRA with a red border and dark blue background. White and yellow text states: 'The NRA supports the Second Amendment rights of all law abiding Americans to purchase, possess and use firearms. NRA does not, and will not, support any policy proposals that implement sweeping gun bans that arbitrarily strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment rights without due process.' The NRA logo is at the bottom. The tweet caption reads: 'The Second Amendment isn’t up for debate.'"

Oh my god, Trump actually got the NRA to come out to defend trans people owning a gun.

CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot.
Unions know better.
Happy Labor Day Weekend.

Heading back to Hamilton to go get an undergrad at McMaster and IDK help people or something, professional. But first we get responsibly red eye ready in the lounge.

Gay bears taking 7 loads a night under the dick dock while you're playing Gamecube games scolding people for not masking. "Mutual AID" but probably just you getting scammed on CashApp and PayPal. At least circuit bears get some cock while clout chasing. You're playing numbers on screens.

Telling AIDS holocaust survivors they've "lost the plot" for not masking but having a gross homeless beard that can't seal any N95 mask sure is a point of view. Don't worry the 40% of people who don't think you're a clout clown will hug box you.

All your BS is about reactive character assassination or perceived exclusion rather than risk management or real people. And watching you get hug boxed by other wokescolds just proves you're stuck here forever with your 60% unfollow ratio because it's ridiculous and boring.

You need professional help. Quoting the voices in your head because you're a low self-confidence internet nerd is not going to help anybody. Shave your gross beard before you tell anybody how to mask, nerd.

Unfuckable Twitch streamers with C- beards and weird mask protocols stuck online forever. Sorry, I'm too hot and cool to listen to you. Please flick off.

Shave your ass-to-mouth beard before you go making these ridiculous statements about masks Mr. 2:5 follow ratio. I can smell the COVID-19 virus and butt on your hole breath.

Miss me with your clap-back Twitter brain shit. And mute.

*Instructive.

As an early millennial gay man I missed the AIDS holocaust by like 24 months. But I consider the survivors some of the toughest and most realistic MFers out there. Talks with them have been instructed.

I always appreciate how much SF hates Silicon Valley.

I don’t really think that there’s any difference between calling human beings “NPCs” or calling them cockroaches or “human animals” or any other classic rhetoric of dehumanization and I find it pretty worrying that people who are otherwise concerned with respectability have adopted its use

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Sam Altman: yeah so data centers, well you know they take a lot of power to run. And I figure, what is more powerful than Goku?

Interviewer: Goku is pretty powerful.

Altman: Goku will power our data centers.

Interviewer: yeah

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

Trauma Brain-- the internalized voices of our bullies and abusers-- is going to try to reduce our CPTSD down to "not having our sh*t together." It's on us to remember: CPTSD is an injury, w/ physical, psychological, & even spiritual aspects.

"Suck it up" doesn't heal injuries.
