As a former diplomat working in Russia, I can tell you that negotiating with adversaries is hard. They take time and patience. To be successful , one needs to understand your interlocutors.

I've repeatedly said this in the past: the end goal of all AI is surveillance, specifically to influence and control

The head of NATO says the US is "taking out" the nuclear capability of Iran, which is a threat to Israel, the region & Europe.

What nuclear capability?

There's only one country in the Middle East with a nuclear capability, and thats Israel.

Something to ask John Tory if he runs for mayor again as he decided to dedicate a massive portion of Toronto's budget to this rebuild.

Kuwait's air defense system, which it buys from US companies, shot down 3 American planes. My tax dollars just shot down my tax dollars.

Rape Culture is having Billboard magazine continue to promote “beef” amongst two men with very serious abuse allegations.

Imagine hiring one of the firms that decided they should bend the knee in one of these, you'd be better off with Jacoby & Meyers

The 15 foods destroying rainforests, in one simple chart New research reveals which food crops are razing the rainforest. One comes out way ahead — and it’s an American favorite.

The same week our study about non-forest ecosystem loss came out, here's another new study looking at what foods are being grown or produced in areas deforested between 2001-2022 with a good article by @benjij.bsky.social:

Where I live in Ontario it should be possible to see the total phase from around 6am until the Moon sets around 7. I am setting an alarm!

Landed on the MAGA side of Tik Tok where they’re excited about the camps and incinerators that are coming. The groups they were most excited to see rounded up & killed were: lawyers, judges and doctors. Doctors were their #1. I saw this coming starting in 2020 but still horrific to watch unfold.

In a head-to-head competition, a virus will defeat your raw milk, beef tallow, and red meat diet every time.

You are not immune from the consequences of refusing to vaccinate.

UPDATE: Yesterday, I posted about hey.cafe — a fully Canadian alternative to Facebook.

They got SWAMPED with people. More than 2x their user base in a few hours.

Doors are still open, but they're capping new accounts at 250/hr. If you get a "we're full" message, try again in a couple of hours.

News orgs have a responsibility to EXPLAIN both sides of an issue. They do not, in fact, have a responsibility to ADVOCATE for either side.

I lived a few streets down from the site where the Philadelphia Police Department firebombed an entire city block in 1985, and when I mention it in lecture most of my students seem absolutely incredulous

you know, this is why you should not elect people who have never once learned anything about anything

The U.S. Released the Epstein Files. The Arrests Are Overseas.

This article should have made the basic point that other countries are governed by the rule of law. It’s not about “eagerness” to prosecute and it’s not a puzzle. It’s a marker of a deep US problem.

The "perhaps a softer vision will emerge" subhed next to the picture of the burning Twin Towers is truly high art from the Times.

It is very telling that Trump and other defenders of his illegal war on Iran have to resort to the airing of a litany of grievances stretching back to 1979 rather than citing an imminent threat to the United States (much less an actual armed attack) as the casus belli.

Bombs cost housing and healthcare.
