You're still down. What's going on? It's been almost a full day of email outages and no support, no updates to your website, no messaging on your status page... Just this.

A snow-covered street with a partially visible metal grate for drainage, surrounded by melting snow.

A snow-covered street with a partially visible metal grate for drainage, surrounded by melting snow.

Slightly warmer temperatures are expected this weekend! 🌑
As the snow melts, please take a moment to clear catch basins and storm drains near your property so melting snow can drain properly.
Keeping these areas clear helps water flow safely and prevents it from pooling on streets and sidewalks.

β€œThe dissent I’ve seen is like a whisper. It’s a fear-based culture right now.”

Across the industry, workers describe a β€˜fear-based culture’ and pressure to β€˜fall in line.β€˜

It was never about the cost of lunch.

1. Eliminate your worker's $20 daily lunch stipend.
2. Blame lack of productivity on decreased use of costly office spaces.
3. Administer costly layoffs.
4. Spend at least $30/day/person on AI usage tokens.
5. Administer costly layoffs.

β€˜Fantastic news’: Ford welcomes ICE plan to order Ontario armoured vehicles | Globalnews.ca Reports emerged this week of U.S. government procurement plans to order 20 Senator vehicles for its ICE officers, a move worth roughly $10 million.

Canadian hubris is consistently claiming the moral high ground while proudly arming a fascist state against its own citizens, the same one that threatened to invade us less than 1 year ago.

I have never been more enraged.

A portrait landscape photograph of a wintery farm scape in Alberta, Canada. In the foreground, deep snow leads to thin wooden fence posts and a line of dead bushes. Beyond the fences, golden wheat stubble pokes through the snow. The sky is light blue and brushed with pale white clouds.

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Ottawa urges Supreme Court to set limits on how provinces can override Charter | CBC News Ottawa brought forward the request in a written legal argument filed at the court on Wednesday, as part of the landmark case on Quebec's secularism law, known as Bill 21.

The federal government is asking the Supreme Court of Canada to set limits around how provincial governments can override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. #Canada

I hope this gives us all the opportunity to rid the charter of that awful notwithstanding clause.
