I appreciate that Abacus is providing this overview on Saskatchewan. To this point, most polls did not have a high enough n (number of residents polled) to draw worthwhile conclusions. abacusdata.ca/saskatchewan...

I cannot attend, but I want you to attend and tell me about it. This will be a good one.

In the last few weeks i've been bombarded with emails from people who have minor tech support problems. ChatGPT is telling them to email me, writing their emails, and compiling "evidence packets" after convincing them they have stumbled on a major story: www.404media.co/chatgpt-keep...

Her show, Kate & Allie, really affected me as a kid. You didn't see shows that focused on women very often, especially women branching out into every private and public avenue in their own with families. They gave my future permission in a way ❤️

Lula Goes HARD

This is the nail-bitingest election in some time

US powers are using AI like ChatGPT to break us down person by person. If you talk to it like a person? STOP RIGHT NOW. If you are not forced to use it for work, DON'T. It is literally a weapon waging war against individual autonomy. Paying them in attention or money to do it is deranged behaviour.

Don't judge me, but I can't quit listening to the Bob's Burgers arrangement of "Mishima" (2023) by Phillip Glass.

We wish the Brazilian people a lot of strength during these crucial elections. :solidarity: If #Bolsonaro wins, #fascism is not only given free rein in Latin America, but all over the world. But even then, fascism will not win. Never! And if #Lula wins, fascism is […] [Original post on todon.nl]

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

The IDU is an international syndicate for far-right authoritarians, and Canada’s Conservative Party is actively aligned with it. Keeping membership in this organization is a direct betrayal of democratic values. An editorial by @taylornoakes.com.

I've largely been away from any sort of news for a few days, and catching up with The Horrors [sweeps arm over everything] has been a trip. I'm crawling back into my hidey hole for a bit longer.

Okay, enough bombardments for today. I am at my parents-in-law's where there is a glorious shower situation of which I must avail myself. My home shower weeps for such glory.

AI is taking away the first rung of the career ladder. IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva warns that young graduates could be left with low-paying service jobs as AI disrupts traditional career paths.

Only 48% of BC voters supported the BC Conservatives, yet the voting system has handed Lorne Doerkson's Conservatives 69% of the seats and 100% of the power. READ MORE: www.fairvote.ca/25/10/2026/b... JOIN THE CAMPAIGN FOR PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION: secure.fairvote.ca/en/action/de...

They are doing this for ultimate control. And it works. Its working for them right now. Yes, stop. You don't need it, you need connections to the lands, to life. 🪶

If Carney were actually for a properly democratic Canada, he would break up foreign media ownership. A democracy must preserve at least its own news media from local to national newspapers, radio, and tv/video. Foreign control should never have been legal in the first place. #CdnPoli #CanPoli

Feels relevant that EPS brass are getting training tips from IDF forces in the occupied West Bank.

I have been seeing a lot of “if it’s on the internet, you should expect it to be scraped” posts lately, and as practical advice, sure. It is also thoroughly okay to be mad about this fact! We SHOULD be able to use devices and services without accidentally signing over souls.
