As someone with a low profile, I don't get many followers, and half of those I get, I block immediately. Here's what will get you a fast block: - women who mostly post photos of their big boobs (I'm gay, you idiots) - crypto/finance bros

When Palestinians kill two Israeli soldiers in the West Bank, it’s the front page story of the @nytimes.com. When Israeli soldiers kill two Palestinian civilians in the West Bank, it’s below the fold. When Israeli soldiers kill two Palestinian babies in Gaza, it’s not news.

Living in one of the most multicultural cities in the world, the diversity of the population continues to grow and improve.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Having trouble deciding which books to buy from Amazon during Prime Days? Try this: None, then go support an independent bookstore instead. 😌

I still have 6 pairs of Converse (already threw out the 2 oldest), but sadly I am not in a financial position to throw out perfectly good shoes. It sucks to have people (especially in the Black communities) have to see me wearing them. But I will never buy another pair.

Silicon Valley’s alliance with Donald Trump was a mask off moment and showed the world we can’t depend on US tech companies. For the past few months, I’ve been trying to get off US tech and I put together a guide so you find alternatives too. I hope you find it helpful!

Here are the symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder. Obviously Trump is the textbook type and pattern, but I encourage people to reflect on how much of America's overall self-image and self-understanding is also described here. my.clevelandclinic.org/health/disea...

📆 Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. This powerful video from Norwich City highlights just how many people suffer in silence when they don’t have to. It's time to change the narrative on suicide. If you’re struggling, call Samaritans on: 116 123.

Once upon a time, Telehealth Ontario was great—you could call, wait a little, talk to an RN and get guidance for how to deal with your thing at home or advice to see your family doctor soon or go to Emerg immediately. Now we have this Doug Ford thing called 811, and it is … well. 1/n

Make your favourite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: Man has to choose between differently-coloured pharmaceuticals.

Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: A chief technology officer is worried about keeping his spreadsheets private.

This one was in reference to a Star Wars fan with a terminal diagnosis, whose dying wish was to see the latest Star Wars film before his death; special arrangements were made for an advance screening just for him.

As someone recently noted, when anyone asks you "Is that AI?" about something you've produced, it's *never* a compliment.

If you use AI for your advertisement flyers, I'm going to make assumptions about you. I'm going to assume you cut corners on everything. If you're a bakery, I'm going to assume you use poor quality ingredients. If you're a handyman, same thing, I'll assume you cut corners on your work.

Your FYP convinced you everyone hates SPF. But the research shows that the false info isn't the majority of videos. It's just the loudest. The algorithm doesn't care whether people agree with a post. It cares whether they're interacting with it. #Sunscreen #spf #MythBusting

Last year, City Council approved a pilot to deploy Toronto Community Crisis Service (TCCS) in the downtown U of the subway, a new non-police emergency service for people experiencing crises on transit. One year later, the results are in. TCCS's non-enforcement approach to safety is working. 🧵⬇️ 1/

So here's an interesting thing I'm seeing in these conversations about "Canadian wildfire smoke." Some Yanks are saying the wildfires are because Canada outlawed Indigenous traditional burning practices. This way, Canada remains the bad guy for oppressing Indigenous Peoples - which is true. 1/5

I wish we'd had this for my mom, who died a year ago with moderate Alzheimer's. We had something that looked very similar but was just a clock with large print, and even that was helpful.
