We have enough food, technology, and money to save the planet. We just have a system where destroying it is more profitable. That's not a climate problem. That's a greed problem. #ClimateJustice

We need a truth requirement for all of our elected officials.
If you make a statement and it is untrue, half true, or you did not present it with proper context, there should be a fine.
We could pay off our national debt with PP’s foolishness.

Doom is an acquired condition that is forced on you.

Albertans need to have a conversation about the value of our vote
We know all the passionate, angry people will vote in the referendum
They will vote to separate, to deny healthcare to immigrants, to allow Smith to appoint judges
By not voting, you're saying you're okay with all these things

And there's an entire generation who never experienced anything else.
They took memory cards and sold us cloud storage.
They took CDs and DVDs and sold us streaming.
They took software you bought once and turned it into a monthly subscription. Corporate America figured out the real money wasn’t in selling you something. It was making sure you NEVER actually own it.

So sad about what journalism has become.
It really pisses me off how @cdnpress.bsky.social not only doesn't call bullshit on the invented grievances, but also uses opposition framing like calling the former Bill C-69 the "No New Pipelines" bill, which was Jason Kenney's name for it, and was 100% untrue.
It's just stenography at this point.

Many of us remember when Premier Lougheed was calling for this - and establishing ways to do it. He was the last good Conservative.
Alberta is a boom bust economy. The Berta cons always have to blame the feds when their single-minded focus on oil proves foolish. Diversify FFS.

Business fiction from a guy who's thought long and hard about human behaviour and relationships. Should be a worthwhile read.
Tomorrow the Titanuts launch...off we go.
I wrote this because business books didn't let me tell a story...to provide context. The book covers what my other books have, but with "real" people in surreal conditions.
I can be clearer about the role of relationships, stress, and coffee in daily life.
