A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable

Made it to Friday but at what cost

Let’s make our voices heard!

These public lands should remain public as an agricultural land trust.

Young & immigrant farmers need access to land, and with a focus on fresh food for people, we can protect our food sovereignty.

Such wonderful ways to celebrate your birthday, nice! 🙌 Happy birthday! 🥳🎂

I can totally understand this. ❤️🫂

Graphic featuring a quote in the centre, which reads: “Covid-19 has a profound and lasting impact on cardiovascular health, with complications emerging during acute illness, recovery, and even after reinfections or vaccination.” Dr. Vassilios Vassiliou, lead author of “Cardiovascular disease prevention and management in Covid-19,” a clinical consensus statement The text is placed on a background showing an ECG chart with a subtle navy and teal gradient overlay.

There is strong research evidence that Covid-19 and Long Covid increase the risk of many cardiovascular conditions, including heart attacks, clotting events, POTS, vascular ageing and more.

“The Government of Canada wants feedback on potential future uses of the Pickering Lands now that the government has announced that the lands won't be used as a future airport site.”

Love this idea! Solution to mitigate Big Grocery control, grocery inflation, food sustainability👇

A bird with a human hand as part of its body in a scratchboard illustration style, large leaves behind it. The bird and hand have a gradient colour of yellow at the top half and turning to pink at the bottom half. AlfAlfA’s signature hiding behind actual leaves of a tree hanging over the top of the shot, in the top left corner of the mural.

This is the other AlfAlfA piece I found last year walking downtown on Jarvis near Gerrard. Just half of it here, it was hard to get the entire piece in one shot, it’s so huge. Stunning! #StreetArt #graffiti

The making of it:

A close up of a bird’s head on a concrete utility box type thing on the edge of Christie Pits Park. It’s in the style of scratchboard, beautiful tight lines creating detailed texture, with subtle gradient colour along the bottom half of head, neck and beak, yellow to pink. A small, abandoned glass top patio table to the left of it, a red shack behind it, and snow covered ground with bare trees in the far background. Small AlfAlfA’s signature in the space below the beak and neck.

Found a new AlfAlfA (aka Nicolás Sanchez) piece in Toronto! I just adore this artist’s style 😍💖

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

Nice workaround! Thx!

Med pro recommended I get some aids from Amazon. I asked where else can I find them?
“Just get them at Amazon.”
“I don’t support Amazon.”
“I don’t know what to tell you then, just Google it.”
Didn’t bother telling them I don’t support Google either.🫠
Mean streets out there for a conscious consumer.

If you use generative AI willingly, if you engage in cryptocurrencies willingly, if you need ChatGPT to type out your emails and live your simulation of an actual life then you have compromised your soul unblinkingly and are someone who simply chooses to feed the beast for your own convenience.

There is never any ethical consumption under capitalism and truthfully, we cannot escape our needs.

But all the things listed above aren’t needs. Theyre wants.

And w/ wants you CHOOSE unethical consumption b/c you simply dont care & will never admit that to yourself b/c youre just fine w/ the lie

I’m so excited for the youngs getting into The X-Files!! 👽

Alt text: Scully and Mulder wearing dark suits and crouching down, arms resting on knees as they look off into the distance with seriously inquisitive expressions and sexy, pouty mouths, against a foggy, backlit, dramatic dark background.

How does the Pentagon justify declaring this software a “supple chain risk” while using it to plan strikes?

How does Anthropic justify “refusing” to let Claude be used in planning, when it already is being used to murder children at school?

How are people so trusting of this technology?

Ugh 🫩

So apparently Anthropic made a huge show about refusing to allow its AI to be used as an autonomous killing machine by the US military (and I fell for it), then agreed to use the same AI to autotarget a thousand potential strikes, one of them being the girls school that got double tapped.

Sounds like a convenient scapegoat for what they really intended to do. 😞

Mistakenly? Or is AI a convenient scapegoat for what they really want to do? “It was operating on outdated maps.” Uh huh. 😞

Didn’t Anthropic say NO to their AI being used by U.S. military?

How does Anthropic think it will “try to “de-escalate” the situation and come to some agreement that works for us and works for them”?

Is negotiation possible when Claude thinks schoolgirls were a valid target?

Rotten to the core.

On 1 day, Carney says he supports the war on Iran, next day he says that maybe it was illegal, & the next day he won't rule out joining.
No goddamned way. This is Drumpf's & Bibi's war. We must refuse to participate in this illegal, illegitimate, and vicious war.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

Why do perimenopausal & menopausal women in BC & Manitoba have access to free menopausal hormone therapy & we don't? National pharmacare.

This is the same pharmacare Mark Carney is now slow-walking. Not expanding.

We'll see more of these stories. This is a women's issue, @rechievaldez.bsky.social

I’m literally fighting off my own corny-meter to write this on here.

You want to bring the forces of cruelty and evil down?

Stand in love because they cannot comprehend it at all.

Move in a way they cannot understand.

Long-term cardiovascular outcomes of COVID-19 - Nature Medicine Individuals with COVID-19 are at increased long-term risk for a wide range of cardiovascular disorders, even for individuals who were not hospitalized during the acute phase of the infection.

Hundreds of research papers and science articles already prove Covid causes heart attack, stroke & other cardiovascular issues leading to early death

They’ll never “test” if Covid was a factor, it will just be chalked up to genetics, poor diet, stress or bad luck and rising cases will be normalized

All you ‘outside shoes inside the home are ok’ folks should really reconsider that. #BirdFlu #H5N1

okay, Ill bite.
What do you think the point of reading for and writing a literature review is? The process of reading and writing is crucial for THINKING. Your ideas are shaped by all of this, offloading it to gAI, no matter how "good" you think gAI is at it defeats the purpose entirely.

Reddit reply by Soirhyle to question is Bluesky is down today: Two monitors are down right now, those being morel.us-east.host.bsky.network and oyster.us-east.host.bsky.network You can check the status of the monitors here: https://status.bsky.app/. If you check your account through ClearSky, you'll find that your PDS might be one of these two. If you're wondering why it's down for you but not for others, this would be why. You can check here, and punch in your account name and such to check here: https://clearsky.app

Yes. Two monitors/servers have been intermittent. I’m on the oyster us east that’s been out for a few hours today, in and out.

$170B in lost wages and we're still calling this a "health story." It's a labor story. A productivity-obsessed economy that spent 2021-2023 telling sick people to push through created a disability crisis it now has zero infrastructure to absorb.
