When it was time for questions I asked "don't you think Gravity was a fun movie though?" and he yelled at me for 10 minutes.

I read 34 books in 2022 and they were all at least pretty good if not great. (Except for Fahrenheit 451, which is bad.)

One simple trick to fix the Tesla stock price: make a car that has doors that can open in cold weather.

I don't think we're quite in "Canada is broken" territory. as per Dimestore Pat Buchanan. But very few of our governments, including fedgov, seem inclined to care very much about basic functionality of existing services these days. All of them need to shape up.

Seeing a lot of US mayors leading by example here.
Seeing a lot of photos of John Tory glad-handing indoors without a mask.

I’ve been kicked off a lot of platforms: Friendster, MySpace (a few times), FourSquare, Tinder, and been suspended here at least twice in the past. But it still brings me a smile to have completely destroyed the entire Spaces functionality

Rupar tells me he has "no idea" why it happened.

I am in America watching Fox News and Ingraham topics include:
- the COVID vaccines actually kill you
- laws supporting interracial and same sex marriage are bad
- something something COVID lab leak something

When in the US, as I am now, I like to watch Fox News to get a feel for this exotic, foreign phenomenon I don't have at home. And it's so much weirder and worse than the impression I get from seeing Fox clips and quotes on Twitter.

@theturner Every single "what if EVs are actually bad" headline I've read has been followed by a "no actually they're good, they're just not a silver bullet" article.
English
Decent piece raising some important points but the terrible clickbait headline contains virtually no accurate terms other than “electric vehicles.” There was no rush, no one calls them a mistake, and the sources in the story mostly aren’t climate strategists

Rush to electric vehicles may be an expensive mistake, say climate strategists cbc.ca/news/business/…

Thankfully this is not the case. It only takes around 15,000 miles for an EV to reach parity with a similar size internal combustion vehicle, which is a bit over one year of typical use.

Inconvenient fact about electric cars #1: If you drive it 60,000 miles… you put MORE carbon in the air than a gas powered car. Only after 60,000 miles do you use less.

Book the dental appointment, that you may not be able to cover out of pocket, to find out if you may be eligible for an unknown amount of a conditional cash benefit, which you may not receive or may need to repay.

Happening at Allen Gardens in Toronto RIGHT NOW. City workers trashing perfectly good sleeping bags and tents, intentionally breaking tent poles so they can't be reused, knowing full well they will turn away another 200+ people from shelter spaces today and tonight.

Realizing how much of parenting is pitching your voice *just right* so that your kids will acquise to requests like "put on your socks" and wondering if that's where the idea for the Bene Gesserit Voice came from.

Leah McLaren recently led off a Toronto Star piece depicting this as a consensual encounter. That piece was about rebutting her mother, Cecily Ross, who had accused McLaren of writing about Ross's sexual assault against her wishes. tinyurl.com/3fh5ev92
