Microsoft copilot for Excel has a warning not to use it for “business critical” calculations because the answer may not be accurate.

Would someone explain why I might *ever* want to use a spreadsheet where results are unreliable?

wildfire alert icon with a message that reads Keep Drones Away From Fires

The NS Department of Natural Resources is advising residents about the danger of using drones in a wildfire area.

Do not operate drones in a wildfire area. It is illegal. It can interfere with our firefighting efforts. The fine is $25,000 under the Forests Act.

People do stupid, reckless shit like this and then don’t understand why the woods are closed 🤦🏻‍♀️

Do people’s brains just shut off when they go to Rainbow Haven beach? Every summer, I am somehow surprised in a new way by the amount of illegal parking and sheer idiocy.

God forbid there were ever an emergency, because no way is an emergency vehicle going to make through all those cars…

First ChatGPT tries to steal my em dashes and now my Oxford comma? I will not stand for this!!

There are a couple cardinals in my neighbourhood too and I always say they sound like video game sound effects… the pew-pew of laser is spot on 🤣

Every time I see one in the wild, I unconsciously pull a face like I’ve just smelled something terrible… and honestly, I hope the drivers see me and know I’m judging them hard 🤷🏻‍♀️

Maybe it’s not too late for me then 🤣

Whenever I talk about changing careers I say I should’ve gone into the trades, but this is making me think I should be working at a bank… too bad I’m not good enough at math for either of those options 🤣

Sadly my dog is terrible at snuggling, but my dear mom has brought me my meds and many, many snacks!

It is very sucky! I did not have “miss an entire week of work” in my calendar, but alas, here we are 🤷🏻‍♀️

Well, kids, my Nurse Practitioner figures I’ve got pneumonia 😭 Bring on the antibiotics…

So, so unpleasant. May we both stop coughing sooner than later!

I think it should be illegal to catch a cold outside of winter months. I’m coughing so much that my chest is aching. So far I’m still testing negative for Covid, so that’s good, but whatever I’ve got still really sucks 😷🤧

I always say thank you to the driver… it did not occur to me that this might be a “Canadian” thing.

It is a Saturday morning on a long weekend, which means I could sleep in… so naturally I woke up at 5:45am and can’t fall back to sleep

Sign at the Toronto Marathon today.

I don't WANT to work I WANT to go live with the faeries I don't CARE which court

I was torn between getting A&W or Dairy Queen the other day, but the choice got a lot easier when I discovered A&W would cost more than twice as much 😭

In a few years (max) when people start asking why we thought AI was a good idea I am creating a record that we did NOT think it was a good idea and the main reason people were ever convinced was billions of dollars of propaganda

With CBC now having called all ridings it's time for the land-vs-people-vote animation.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Nothing irks me quite like a power outage with no apparent cause

Anyone else in Dartmouth just lose power for no reason?? #halisky

Oh my goodness, yes! Anywhere that lets me book online immediately wins my loyalty forever, because my ADHD almost never lets me remember to do things during business hours 🤦🏻‍♀️

I saw a cybertruck in real life today. I truly do not understand why anyone would drive such a horrendously ugly vehicle… let alone a horrendously ugly vehicle created by a nazi 🤮

toimarie ••• When you declare, "I'm not political," you're not just showcasing a lack of understanding; you're also highlighting a willingness to enjoy the fruits of activism without engaging in the labor that makes our freedoms possible. You're essentially saying you're okay with being a free-rider. Do better. @TOIMARIE

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important:

Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

This is why I couldn’t help but laugh when Tim called Zach Churchill as a “Trudeau Liberal” while implying that he himself is not a “Pollievre Conservative” during the provincial election. As if we don’t all know exactly who Timmy H is voting for in the federal election…
