can he benefit from debating zizek? realizing his analysis is highschool level and going down a barbituate spiral?

Just watched the #blackmirror episode 'Joan is awful' (season 6) and I guess the terms and conditions we agree to on these apps persist after we die 😢 we need more explicit consent laws.

Sunny day to protest #PDAC with @mininginjustice.bsky.social outside the Metro Toronto Convention Centre #NoToMining #MiningIsNotTheFuture

in front of the metro toronto convention centre, a group of protesters that traveled 2 days from the far north to speak against the planned ring of fire mines in ontario, canada. signs read "water is life" "sturgeon are forever" "neskantaga strong" "neskantaga & attawapiskat will protect our river" Congolese flags in the background.

canadian mining colonizes destroys and kills.
speakers from the #congo, #tigray , and first nations in the #ringoffire speaking of the damages to their land and ppl. while those who profit from murder and pillage network in the convention centre.

this is the really sad dimension of the show 'alone' people starving and freezing in isolation for chance to win $500k. the poor Americans are like: If I win I can pay my child's medical bills, or my elderly parent can retire etc 😢

we passed this law in toronto and our field naturalists championed it. ppl are feeding animals to get photographs and we speculate if the coyotes are getting too bold with people bc they are being fed to the point they are considering a coyote culling around fort york where theyve become aggressive.

feels like spring has arrived in mid february in ontario 😥

it's not just the developing world. :( i was visiting rural Quebec.. charming white collar young crew having a fire in the backyard.. after they finished drinking their waters they simply disposed of the plastic bottles in the fire... it blew my mind. nevermind redneck burn piles.

what's significant is Ukrainians didn't do xmas on dec 25, but a week later during orthodox xmas. its now changed as they are trying to distance themselves from Russian culture.

A lump of coal.

it is our duty through to the new year 🫡

I'm in a finishing trade and when I finish a conventional house I feel terrible for the family moving in having to live with all the chemical offgassing. wish we built like this 😭

I got a call yesterday from someone who wanted to unite the construction transition initiatives in the capital, which is cool. But the real construction transition is coming from the countryside.

feels like a zen koan reading this... just unimaginable

i put 5' mulch berm in my front yard to keep water in my yard. in 6months it was less than half the height and in a year it was 1' deep. I've added several more feet over the years and have the softest fluffiest soil. trees are loving it.

trees work so hard to make those leaves to drop them to build soil and habitat. trees make the biomass and we clear it away and dump it somewhere else.

the optimistic liberal banker needs to keep capital flowing at all costs 😓
he has a section in his thick book on climate change but... /in the final analysis/ it's all about profits for some, and pain for the first nations and coastal ecosystems.

going to a grocery store is so depressing

Coldest air on Earth today is in the US with temps up to 40 degrees below normal in the Midwest/ Great Lakes. Actual lows are as low as -20F there.
Cold US is due to widespread relative warmth in the Arctic, with record low Arctic Sea Ice extent. This “warmth” displaces the polar cold pool south.

** at the moment this is OK-ish for me as it's lowering cost for the innovative people bringing this tech to scale up in the fossil distorted market with industrial products on marginal costs leading to the crisis we see. But let's prevent this soon as it is going to be a loophole.

"relentlessly grim"

Pipeline grand bargain MOU signed today by @mark-carney.bsky.social is a betrayal on climate, on our obligation to First Nations and to our children.

4 companies will benefit the most: Suncor, CNRL, Imperial Oil and Cenovus. All majority foreign owned.

How do Canadian taxpayers feel about that?
