    I limped along while ‘men played football’ but we’ve gone too far. Updated the block list to reduce discussion of absurd and corrupt sports organization.

    JK Rowling is a violent danger to the world, but especially the UK. She took all that money and became the worst person she could imagine. https://www.antirights.com/

    Fuck CBC. “Breached”. “Enclave”. Ffs.

    This article is not about the irrational valuations of the big Canadian banks. Or their monopoly and how it harms Canadians. It’s a love letter to share buyback programs that should be illegal since they manipulate the stock price and divert funds from real work

    Madeline Meilleur was so incompetent as attorney general of the province she had to slink off into the night. She doesn’t get to ever speak in public again. JFC do some journalism. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/mayoral-race-turns-negative-sutcliffe-campaign-launches-attacks-9.7291102

    Was an hour early for my haircut by accident so went for an extra bike ride. It’s smoking hot out there ottawa.

    Walked through the byward market this morning. The entire market authority or whatever it’s called should be fired. #ottawa

    Ugh. Someone needs to make the fucking PM work the rest of the day outside at 30°+ and breathing that smoke. Might slow down the next pipeline

    Downside of summer swim lessons. Sundays ruined with scheduling conflicts all over. Upside only 3 registered and only bear turned up today so it’s a 1:1 class today and we’ll stick around for the public swim right after. #ottawa

    If surveillance pricing is necessary for your business a/ fuck you; and b/ we should also ban loyalty/points programs entirely and cap credit card fees at 0.4%.

    Suckcliffe should have to answer at every door (like he’s going to visit people who don’t pay $1500 to hang out in a developer’s back yard) that giving half a billion to OSEG wasn’t in his platform and then he rammed it through. #ottpoli

    Carny’s hierarchy: 1. Bankers 2. OIl and Gas 3. Military contractors (mostly in the US) 4. Alberta’s right wing … 4273. A future where the environment is survivable

    Microsoft’s capacity issues have meant on again off again issues for me with VM allocation in Canada central. How long are we to run like this before it’s cheaper to just use on-premises resources rather than cloud. #Microslop #Azure

    This bill is pushed by the worst people alive. Either so naive for it to be surprising they can walk setting us up for data breaches that harm millions or viciously cynical people looking for fascist surveillance on the population. Neither is acceptable. Neither should be in power. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/federal-officials-on-the-defensive-as-momentum-grows-against-lawful-access-bill-9.7206179 #cdnpoli

    Dug into the HTML on TechCrunch’s website and was able to add a blocking rule in StopTheMadness Pro which blocks a pile of crappy mystery things on the web. Earning its keep. They actually went for it and embed the anti ad blocking stuff into the initial HTML payload. Not blockable by domain.

    Parking sick hockey weirdness. Not to take away from people that love this stuff but forcing two signs for bilingualism while leaving the word “mile” in there. 😂

    I’d hardly call $30k cheap but we’ve destroyed the livability of North America to funnel money to automakers and oil companies. If there we’re justice and civilization we wouldn’t even own cars. But $30k Chinese EVs sure are attractive compared to the trash they try to sell today.

    Overthrow your government. Restore democracy. End your wars. Help cuba. Free Puerto Rico. Close your military bases around the world. Jail the billionaires. And then we can talk about buying Bourbon. Until then fuck off.

    Been trying out an android phone. Bear has taken to calling it my “Sampson” phone. The name has stuck. It’s a Google pixel but who’s counting.

    Burn it to the ground my man. Allies that want you to let your people die and to cede territory to try and save a couple percent off the cost of gasoline are not allies. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0e7lrxrelwo

    Nationalize the grocery chains. Break up the vertical integration under anti trust. Wealth tax Weston and his ilk into the dust.
