On behalf of the vast majority of Canadians, I'd like to apologize for the creation of Jordan Peterson on our soil. He must have been raised by the geese. Sorry. Sincerely.

Peterson is about to lose his license. The Ontario College of Psychologists doesn't care at all about politics. They care that he's a grifter who routinely violates their code of conduct.

Enjoy this video of Peterson arguing with Peterson.

Demand doesn't necessarily mean something is a good idea though?

There's a lot of demand for centralisation, but that would be a really bad idea.

@geewiz @atmorojo I don’t know why I didn’t think of just looking for opinions online… The main Mastodon dev puts it perfectly. Can’t disagree with it now.

I needed to read this today. My New Years revolution is to live life vibrantly, like a benevolent alien.

I think it might help. 🧡

The first unionized Amazon warehouse in the U.S.
The first unionized Chipotle in the U.S.

How being an "Alpha Male" works out in the end in real life:

- Trump is facing at least a dozen significant investigations & lawsuits.

-Musk bought Twitter for 10x its worth, revealed his true toxic self causing Tesla stock to crash, Twitter advertisers to leave, and users to flock to Mastodon

- Kanye’s hate-filled ego met consequences.

- Misogynist "influencer" Andrew Tate arrested

- Putin will lose & face the Hague.

Here's to 2023 being the end of the toxic "alpha male" cult.

Dear Autocorrect: It is not ducking. It will never be ducking.

Seriously...all kidding aside...we had some colorful clouds on display today. I walked in Swiftwater Park today in #SoldotnaAlaska

I want a revolution that welcomes people in.

I want a revolution that honors shared humanity.

I want a revolution that values difference.

I want a revolution with room for joy and creativity.

I want a revolution that nurtures & connects as it protects us.

I want a revolution that makes space for love & rage.

I want a revolution that leaves no one behind.

I want a revolution that is willing to learn & transform.

I want a revolution that says, when you are ready, join us.

Today in 1857, Queen Victoria chooses the small logging town of Ottawa as the capital of the Province of Canada. It is chosen due to its isolation at the time, and it is halfway between Toronto & Kingston and Montreal and Quebec City.
