Screenshot of an iPhone call with a duration of 2:31:13 to an 888 number that belongs to Air Canada Reservations.

This reply is more than I expected but absolutely no help.

“Promptly”? I was already headed to the airport by the time this reply came in.

The good news is, I did manage to complete my call with AirCanada last night… it took 2 hours and 31 minutes, right through my goodbye dinner with friends.

I have now been on hold for 1 hour and 41 minutes, @aircanada.bsky.social
This is 6th time I've called this week. I've been disconnected, run out of time, or had callbacks that fail to call back, the other times.
I don't expect any response here, just as I no longer expect any response by phone.

The law is settled. Instances are not. Hence: suing

I knew I saw this somewhere before. Funny that it’s almost exactly what’s actually happening now.

Even in the darkest night, when all hope seems lost,
Stand fast for what is right, no matter what the cost.
Remember that you cannot lose, despite the loss and sorrow.
We can only change the things we choose, and the sun will rise tomorrow.

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

Using tear gas in a crowd with children is….

Is @hootsuite.com still a B corp, committed to social good? How do they square that with "social listening" contracts with ICE in 2026?

Glad to speak w/CBC's Gloria Macarenko about it: www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Judge in Minnesota Says ICE Has Violated Nearly 100 Court Orders

"The chief federal judge in Minnesota excoriated ICE saying it had violated nearly 100 court orders and had disobeyed more judicial directives in January alone than “some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/28/u...

Conservatives once again show their desperation not allowing reporters. Vote the trash out!

"PM #MarkCarney axed the #AntiGreenwashing bill, making the same bogus claims #PathwaysAlliance did, that not allowing #BigOil to lie to us any more was an impingement of #FreeSpeech, as if #FalseAdvertisng is actually a good thing instead of something really bad that used to be legally actionable."

'But while this warning was duly reported, it has barely interrupted the largely episodic nature of climate coverage in mainstream media, which continues to look from day to day as though we weren’t on the precipice of irrevocable disaster.'

@seanorr.bsky.social comments?

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Yeah it’s a big solar cycle currently, perhaps because of the coming Rapture. /s

Now the actual military has to dress like it’s not the military cuz federal law enforcement agencies dress too much like the military

You wouldn't think people would end up calling it "Donald Trump's Vanity Project", but what a lot of people don't realize, is if you click right enough times on Wikipedia, you get to see future revisions.

“Fuck ICE!” chants & a brass band performing “Which side are you on?” as hundreds march in Manhattan, NYC against ICE and in solidarity with Minneapolis.

How technology supports and undermines democracy - Harvard Law School At a recent event, experts urged collaboration between technologists and policymakers to protect the rule of law.

"The democracy world is kind of in one silo, and we tech people are in another silo," said EFF's Cindy Cohn at an event hosted by @harvard.edu's Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society. "If we don't start talking to each other soon, bad things are going to continue to happen."

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...
