Oops, looks like cosocial.ca is down.
Was this planned? 🤷‍♀️

"Students across Canada are exposed to artificial intelligence (AI) whether through search engines, writing assistants, automated recommendation systems or social media.

That everyday exposure raises a first, fundamental question: What should students should learn about AI? "

I don’t understand how we got to the point where I have the same opinion of Maple MAGA as Jason Kenney #CdnPoli

Canada should hit any of these carve-outs with an export tax until all tariffs are lifted. None of these games to pit Canadian industries against one another.

“Trump administration signals that the tariffs against Canada and Mexico may soon have exemptions”

From @GraphicMatt https://mastodon.social/@GraphicMatt/114031684621407889

Other than voting I’ve never involved myself in politics. Thursday Feb. 13 at 6:00 p.m. Eastern I’ll be joining a Zoom call run by Lead Now, to bring people together to help keep a rightwing agenda from seeping further into Canadian Federal Politics. Over 1000 people have signed up already, so I feel like there must be somewhere I can contribute. If you care about a humane future for Canada, consider joining us.

First they came for the trans people and i did not speak out ... but helped build a network to get trans people out of the US because i know the rest of the fucking poem.

We from @transworldexpress collect data points in how to emigrate from the US to safer countries for trans people - and most of that data is not even trans specific.

If you ever consider leaving the US there might be valuable data at https://transworldexpress.org

For trans people and for all the others that need to GTFO the USA

@benroyce
We are witnessing the death throes of #WhiteSupremacy. They are desperate and afraid. Beyond fearful. That is why they are proposing all this insane, stupid shit. Including ignoring the law, which is the only thing standing between them and the guillitines.
The technical term is #ExtinctionBurst, and it is described well here:

Day 13: A Martian sunset.

My kid asked me to make him a stained glass piece. He's super into space, so I decided to make him a Martian sunset.

Did you know that Martian sunsets are blue?

Isn’t it lovely?
