@Mikehomeseller Saw them in Toronto when they toured this album. It was my first concert ever, and if I remember correctly, this was the first song they played that night. Drummer from Yes filled in when Phil was singing.

"More than 3 in 4 Canadians admit that these new Health Canada logos are influencing their behaviour, and nearly half (48%) say they are less likely to buy a product displaying the label. I know many don’t like them or don’t see the point, but they are working. It’s good policy."

Elon Musk thinks the entire education system is built on a broken assumption. That every student should learn the same thing. At the same speed. In the same order. At the same time. Musk: “Everyone goes through from like 5th grade to 6th grade to 7th grade like it’s an assembly line. But people are not objects on an assembly line.” The model was designed for a factory economy. Standardized inputs. Predictable outputs. That economy is gone. The assembly line is gone. But the education system still runs on its logic. A student who masters algebra in two weeks sits through eight more weeks because the calendar says so. A student who struggles gets dragged forward because the schedule doesn’t wait. Neither is being served. Both are being processed. Musk: “Allow people to progress at the fastest pace that they can or are interested in, in each subject.” AI doesn’t teach a classroom. It teaches a student. One at a time. Every time. It skips what a student already knows. It finds where they’re stuck and approaches it from a different angle. It adjusts in real time. Not at the end of a semester when the damage is already done. A student obsessed with basketball learns fractions through shooting percentages. A student who builds in Minecraft learns geometry through architecture. The subject doesn’t change. The entry point does. No teacher with thirty students can do this. Not because they lack skill. Because the math doesn’t work. AI doesn’t have that constraint. Musk: “You do not need to tell your kid to play video games. They will play video games on autopilot all day. So if you can make it interactive and engaging, then you can make education far more compelling.” The brain isn’t broken. The format is. Kids learn complex systems and strategic thinking for hours voluntarily. Then walk into a classroom and can’t focus for twenty minutes. That’s not a discipline problem. That’s a design problem. Musk: “A university education is often unnecessary. You probably learn the vast majority of what you’re going to learn there in the first two years. And most of it is from your classmates.” Four years. Six figures of debt. And the real value comes from the people sitting next to you. Not the institution charging you. The degree doesn’t certify knowledge. It certifies endurance. Musk: “If the goal is to start a company, I would say no point in finishing college.” The system was built to train employees. If you’re not trying to be one, it has nothing left to offer you. Every lecture. Every textbook. Every curriculum. Now available instantly. Personalized to any learner. Adapted to any pace. The question isn’t whether the old model survives. It’s how long we keep forcing students through it while the replacement already exists.

Isn't it odd that America never realised that Hitler was a very bad man until just a few moments after Pearl Harbor was bombed That was the moment when the penny dropped and America's commitment to Freedom kicked in

The main reason Britain is not speaking German is the RAF, Royal Navy and British Army. The Army held off the Germans and made it out of Dunkirk, the Navy was far stronger than Germany’s, and the RAF won the Battle of Britain. Wish we’d stop with this bullshit.

Let me get this straight. You’ve been in power for ten years. You’ve doubled the debt. You’ve weakened the economy. And now, your answer is to trap young Canadians? On stage, the Liberal Party of Canada brings out Patrick Pichette, a former senior executive at Google, who now lives in Europe, to suggest that Canadians who want to pursue opportunities in the United States should face an exit tax of $500,000. Half a million dollars to leave your own country. This, from someone who once left Canada himself to build a career in the U.S. and paid virtually nothing to do so. So let’s be honest about what this is. It is not economic policy. It is not nation building. It is control. A government that has mismanaged the economy now wants to limit your ability to seek opportunity elsewhere. Instead of creating reasons to stay, they are looking for ways to make it harder to leave. You do not grow a country by locking people in. You grow it by giving them a reason to believe in it.

@Mikehomeseller Hard to chose, saw him in 1979. Probably his cover version of “Well Alright”, a Buddy Holly song that was previously covered by Blind Faith.

@JohnMappin @bennyjohnson There’s larceny in everyone, some more than others. Bad behaviour in society isn’t because of nationality, religion, or sex. It’s a measure of psychopathy, that may or may not be caused by demons.

Benny. @bennyjohnson Thanks for the Follow. They will come for you. I believe that the President is being threatened or blackmailed. They tried to kill him once. They Killed Charlie Kirk in broad daylight in front of of us all. They spend decades collecting compromising blackmail material on world leaders. This is why we witness such changes in the character and policy of key players. Most people cannot stand up to it. You are. Well done.

🚨 Benny Johnson’s scorched-earth response to the Netanyahu critics— "I APOLOGIZE FOR NOTHING!" 🇺🇸 The internet is in a total meltdown after Benny Johnson called for Bibi Netanyahu to be banned from the White House—and today, he just DOUBLED DOWN. 💥 Despite the wave of "antisemitism" accusations flooding his mentions, Benny isn't backing an inch. He says his stance isn't about hate—it's about America First. 🛑 THE ACCUSATIONS HE’S ADDRESSING: The Iran "Lie": Allegations that Netanyahu misled Trump regarding Iran’s capabilities. The Tracker Scandal: Claims that tracking devices were found on Secret Service vehicles during a previous visit. 🎙️ THE MIC-DROP MOMENT: "I would like to apologize... for absolutely nothing. It is my obligation as an American who loves ONLY my country to be suspicious of every other nation who presumably loves only their country." Benny’s argument is simple: If you’re a "Free Person" and an American patriot, you owe your loyalty to the U.S. flag—not a foreign government. He’s calling out what he sees as a double standard where criticizing a foreign leader gets you labeled as "hateful," while he views it as basic national security. Is @bennyjohnson right to be "suspicious" of foreign allies, or has he gone too far this time? 👇 DROP A FLAG IF YOU’RE AMERICA FIRST. LET’S SETTLE THIS IN THE COMMENTS.

France wants two out of three new cars to be electric by 2030 — because gas is too expensive. Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu made the call on April 10, 2026. He noted that five years ago France produced zero electric cars. Today, thanks to state subsidies and local industry, the purchase price of an electric car is now comparable to a gasoline or diesel model. Lecornu highlighted the running cost difference: driving 100 km in an electric car costs an average of 2 to 3 euros, compared to roughly 11 euros in a diesel car. The government is pushing this transition hard amid high gasoline prices.

The last excuse for not going electric just died. China just solved the only real problem holding electric cars back. BYD unveiled a system called Megawatt Flash Charging. Their new chargers deliver 1,500 kilowatts of raw powerthat is three times what Tesla's fastest Supercharger can do in the United States. The result is almost impossible to believe, a dead battery goes from 10% to 97% charge in nine minutes. For comparison, filling up a gas tank takes five to eight minutes and BYD just matched that number for an electric car. BYD rebuilt the entire system from scratch. New battery chemistry and new silicon carbide chips with the highest voltage rating ever put in a production car. A 1,000-volt architecture running through every single component, they call it the Super e-Platform, and it is the first of its kind ever mass produced for passenger vehicles. Here is what makes this more dangerous for Western automakers than any price war. BYD makes the battery, the charger, the chip, and the car all in-house. The charging stations are not even hidden in parking garages, they are built to look exactly like gas stations, T shaped canopies, pull-up lanes, liquid-cooled guns that start charging ten seconds after you plug in. In America, fast charging means 350 kilowatts and a 40 minute stop while BYD is doing 1,500 kilowatts and nine minutes. That gap is not closing but rather widening. By the end of this year, BYD plans to build 20,000 Flash Charging stations across China, Tesla took years to build a fraction of that globally. The question is no longer whether electric cars can compete with gas. The question is whether American and European automakers can compete with BYD and right now, the honest answer is no.

So this EU thing doesn't seem to be going away. Now imagine the following scenario. Enough MPs cross the floor to give Carney a majority. He then turns around and unilaterally decides that Canada should join the EU. Is that really so far out of the realm of possibility?
