Build Canada has published 14 policy ideas—all of them written by men - The Logic Senior figures behind Build Canada say it’s wrong to characterize the project as male-led and that questions about diversity distract from the issues it is trying to address.

In the words of my dear friend @skstock.bsky.social ⤵️

My dog made Valentine's at daycare today. Got one for his groomer (and now friend of mine) and I'm so excited to give it to her tomorrow 🥹

And the employees can have no opinion on the matter 😬

I searched Kendrick's Humble lyrics and they immediately showed up.. as did a few others I tried just to see

Jared Kushner says Gaza’s ‘waterfront property could be very valuable’ Donald Trump’s son-in-law also says Israel should bulldoze an area of the Negev desert and move Palestinians there

Anyone who is paying attention, knows this is a PR stunt to turn their (actually political) private WhatsApp that got exposed by @thelogic.co into an "initiative" for tech founders. As a founder, I'm so sick of this shit. Thank you Rachel for saying the things I'm too pissed off about to notice 🫠
