I need you to understand that there’s actually one very big reason making up a huge part of why everything sucks now: monopolies. Or, more accurately, oligopolies. That’s why so many people are excited about the Ticketmaster decision that just happened. But it’s the tip of the iceberg:

Is Alberta…okay? Danielle Smith’s UCP government has been neglecting cost of living issues so she can gerrymander elections, bully trans kids, privatize healthcare, enact don’t say gay laws and more! @colenotcole.bsky.social joined me on today’s episode to break it all down. Here’s a sneak peek:

Return of the Left? The NDP crown their leader this weekend! What’ll it mean for the future of progressive politics in Canada? Plus: Poilievre went on Rogan, Canada’s top cop said something wild and big tech is having some big troubles. @parismarx.com and @supriya.bsky.social discuss: Sneak peek:

Canadian politicians have been condemning an effigy strung up at a recent pro-Palestine protest. To hear them tell it, it was vile antisemitism: a Jewish person hanging from a noose. But that’s a lie -- one now being used to criminalize protest and vilify protesters. Let’s talk about the truth:

Carney has announced a new AI strategy to ramp up adoption of the tech-bro-touted technology in a way that he says “serves all Canadians.” But BIG questions are lingering about how this aggressive ramp up will play out in a world where data centres guzzle water and destroy the environment:

I’m finding myself increasingly horrified at how low some politicians go. They’re willing to lie despite being fact-checked, they’re willing to downplay horrors, and they’re willing to legitimize icky influencers. It's also, awkwardly, a disproportionate problem within the Conservative Party:

Today in the mainstreaming of far-right bullshit, let’s check in on the National Post and former Alberta Premier Jason Kenney. Because they are both going out of their way to defend and arguably boost an infamously racist book, The Camp of the Saints. Here’s what’s going on:

Someone should probably find out if there was a gas leak at the Globe and Mail. Short of that, it’s hard to fathom why their editorial board thought it was a good idea to publish their piece on potential unmarked graves at residential schools. This navel-gazing, both-sides bullshit hurts people:

I want to talk about the subtle ways people online can influence how you and others around you think. Because I’ve noticed a trend. Not only is actually pretty smart, but it seems to help accounts gain influence over online conversations — for better or for worse worse:

If a convicted felon & sex offender can hand out our tax dollars to convicted criminals, shows how corrupt the⚖️US legal system is. The US SOFA agreement internationally should be immediately abolished...to stop US paedophiles, rapists, murders & criminals abroad fleeing back to US getting payouts.

“What if you started 6 Months ago?” That question hurts because deep down… you KNOW where your business could be by now. More bookings. More followers. More confidence. More money. Most lash techs wait for the “perfect time”. Meanwhile… Other people start messy and grow anyway.

L’astronaute Victor Glover avait oublié que la caméra était allumée dans la capsule Orion. Il s’amusait à tourner sur lui-même. Cet exercice en micro-gravité montre bien la conservation du moment angulaire. En l’absence de couple extérieur, le vecteur L reste constant en direction (axe rotation).
