#RobertSmith said he considers "Just Like Heaven" to be one of the band's strongest works, and called it "the best pop song the Cure have ever done".

You know it’s a big game when your Go Train driver is cranking OK Blue Jays over the speakers as your train pulls into Union Station.

Health Canada put out an alert regarding acetaminophen in pregnancy… reassuring pregnant people that it’s safe and that untreated fever can harm a developing fetus.

What a depressing final era (Navigator and now Therme) to an otherwise illustrious career.

I can’t believe he called him Paul Walker twice. The other announcer said Pete and then he said Paul again after that 🤭

Be they alive or dead, quoting people accurately, in context, as a journalist – should never get you fired.

If you hate the fact that there are billionaires who hoard wealth, especially those who funded Trump’s last election campaign — Bezos / Amazon should be the next protest and boycott focus. This was very effective with Musk / Tesla.

AI impoverishes us at every step of the process: - data centers pollute our environment - energy use drives up costs - content theft robs creators of income - the actual output is used to displace workers and depress wages - using it harms our mental health and impairs our competence - the flood of AI slop is damaging our sociopolitical landscape All in service of making a worse product - and world - to enrich a handful of already spectacularly wealthy people
