Sickening
Israel has been attacking hospitals and health facilities in Iran. Their policy and practice of targeting and destroying healthcare in Palestine as a method of unlawful and immoral warfare is being exported and used on Iran.
One must assume that anyone who expresses surprise or "shock" that the IDF-US coalition is systematically attacking civilian infrastructure critical for life and is repeatedly commiting actions that kill civilians must have been living under a rock for the past 3 years.
Iranβs people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Not to be that person but, but clinical trials require equipoise and can't really involve withholding effective treatment, so this ethical dilemma should not exist in clinical trials
The CBC can write up this self-justificatory bullshit all it wants, the simple fact is this: it is deeply immoral to accept an award from a fascist criminal. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Seeing lots of creep (smart) glasses popping up on Facebook marketplace, hopefully a sign of remorse
Our politicians are actually this dumb.
All of this stuff is fundamentally about the erasure of consent. At the core of these products is the assertion that your very existence is a tacit agreement to feed the machine.
Given how great they are at self policing, finding the bad actors, and allowing independent civilian oversight
Yup, body cameras are exactly the fix the Winnipeg police need... youtube.com/shorts/rX361...
I hate this guy so much
WTF
Does he mean like not Iranian people?
If Carney gave a shit about protecting children or any other Canadians from online harms, he'd start by banning X for creating and distributing CSAM and non-consensual porn.
But he won't even stop posting there.
Front page of The Journal of AI Generated Papers
I think this journal is a great idea -- it makes it really convenient to completely avoid all these papers at the same time.
Seeing that no press freedom orgs have rushed to defend and help @rachelgilmore.bsky.social makes me ask, for the millionth time, what do CJFE, PEN, etc even do? Why exist at all when you do fuck all to fight censorship and intimidation?

Currently the genocidal state of Israel is bombarding Beirut and Tehran. Yet they have convinced you to view Iran as threat
Not happy with just take egg in US trump decides to take food in world

Neutrality About Medical Misinformation? www.medpagetoday.com/opinion/seco... by @drkatiesuleta.bsky.social
"...neutrality is not diplomacy; it's acquiescence.
A direct line can be drawn between neutrality & even tolerance of misinformation and the current state of public health."
Unfortunately, βYo brother, legal team confirmed we canβt work with minors rnβ is an instant classic
Except it likely wasn't misidentified the AI was probably doing exactly what it was supposed to do, targeting schools just like in Gaza... www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/...
In the 21st century this is evil incarnate. Poilievre is nothing more than a mini-Trump, willing to sell out our children for the short-term profit of burning oil & gas. The legacy of myopic leaders like this will be to leave a wasteland for the next generation. We must stop them. #EndFossilFuels
I feel like this is the logical outcome of that meme, but where instead of a sign that would upset them that they can't read, it is the entire field of humanities which could have saved them, but again they can't read
This is the kind of guy who if you own a bar you need to kick them out right away or you have a certain type of bar.
They retired thanks to some incredibly courageous whistle blowers (including my PhD co-supervisor) and some amazing journalists at the @winnipegfreepress.com including @doubleemmartin.bsky.social read this article it is insane and this what they could verify

This is a profound continental divide. Canadians overwhelmingly view other Canadians, even those unlike them, as being good people. Americans, more than any other country, view their neighbours and fellow citizens as bad people. Anti-Americanism flourishes in the United States
